So in short you're saying "You're right Rick. That is an example of the name brand (trying horriblely) to cover an opionn(dick)head's misspeaking.
And by doing so, they DID lie." Glad you could say that.

Should the BBC be arrested and charged

You don't seem to be grasping the difference between presenting alleged facts as alleged facts, and presenting alleged facts as absolute truths. Read the MMR report, it's language is that of "Child vaccine linked to autism" and states that "more research is needed", and then when things come to light presents this, which is of comparable size. This is not saying MMR causes Autism, and then barely covered the redaction. They reported a piece of research, and then reported when it was proved wrong, so no the BBC should not be arrested, but the doctor involved should be struck off, as he was responsible for misleading the public not those who reported his research.

NO.
I'm saying its such a minor thing I couldn't be arsed to research it. I thought someone was going to actually bring up something material.
Should NBC be dissolved for playing the the Zimmerman 911 call?
Should CBS be dissolved for its false report about Bush on the eve of the election?
SHould MSNBC be dissolved for having Al Sharpton on its program?
Should the NY Times be dissolved for peddling unfounded rumors about McCain having an affair?
Should ABC be dissolved for not reporting the Edwards craziness earlier?

Why halfass it? Either jump in or stay out. If it's too much of a hassle to read replies and linked stories, stfu.

I'm not the one saying you should shut down the network, evidently over a video game

If the argument gets gets too close to you accepting you're wrong simple belittle the opposing argument with tangentially related examples, Frazz style.

Sorry US law. Here Public figures have less leeway, but we hate them anyway.

http://videos.mediaite.com/video/Dana-Perino-On-Diane-Sawyer

Here, we have Fox News claiming that Diane Sawyer's first question to Romney was about him having his dog ride on the roof of his car.

Quote: "That was her first question. Not how are you going to create jobs? What is going wrong? How will you turn things around? It was why did you let your dog ride on the roof of the car?"

And, here's the transcript of the interview: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/transcript-diane-sawyer-sits-mitt-ann-romney/story?id=16150624&singlePage=true#.T5Wj-GFTUrF

Things that were asked about before the dog came up (keep in mind many topics had multiple questions):
Basic Nominee questions (how does it feel? etc)
Romney's Tax Returns
Relatability Issues
Tax Reform
HUD
Equal Pay for Women
Abortion
War in Afghanistan
Ann Romney's connection to women's issues

And, then, after all that, the dog is brought up.


Fox News presented an absolute lie.

Wait really? Thats all you've ing got? What a pussy.

Every time I ready one of your posts my opinion of you guys down 1 point. It is currently at negative 674.
