John Stewart med mer intelligent mediekritikk. Skjønt, man bør ikke være spesielt intelligent for å gjennomskue Fox News’ objektive journalistikk:
But Sean Hannity and his team did more than cover the event. They not only inflated the number in attendance with their words, but actually used footage from a heavily-attended protest this summer to make this health care rally appear more popular. Hannity even pointed out that this was a huge crowd for a Thursday, when the protest footage they used was from a Saturday.
Fox News ble startet av mediemogulen Rupert Murdoch. Wikipedia:
Many observers say that Fox News Channel’s programming promotes conservative political positions.[3][4][5][6] Fox News Channel denies any bias in the channel’s news reporting, and says there is a distinction between its news coverage and editorial programming.
Konservativsme er en ting, men denne typen journalistikk er bare uverdig.

Får slikt noen rettslige konsekvenser?
Ser at Hannity beklager med å si. “…we skrewed up…We apologize. But by the way, we wanna thank you and all your writers for watching.”
For å ha manipulert og løyet for seere på den måten, så synes jeg ikke det holder.
