Here are some of the biggest lies told by that nasty, pseudo news outlet.

"NASA scientists fudged the numbers to make 1998 the hottest year to overstate the extent of global warming."


The Obama administration "manipulated deportation data to make it appear that the Border Patrol was deporting more illegal immigrants than the Bush administration."


ISIS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi was "released by Obama in 2009."


Obamacare is "one big fat VA system."

Yeah that's every major news outlet haha. If you want to know the truth about things you usually have to go pretty deep into the internet. Liveleak is pretty good, although not really monitored so there's a lot of gory uncut footage of wars and whatnot. You gotta be careful what you click on.

Fox News Channel has been running 24 - 7 - 365 for over 12 years and you guys ONLY HAVE 4 examples? Seriously?

A more accurate criticism of Fox News would have to do with their female on air personalities and their very short skirts.....it appears to be a requirement.........

ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, PBS, THE WEATHER CHANNEL for crying out loud are nothing more than the Propaganda machine for the Liberal Left in America...........so why on earth would I consider anything they said to be true?

Get a life.......

ACTUALLY, NBC, CBS, and PBS are conservatively funded. David Koch had a large hand in PBS for a while.

And, no, there are more than four examples. I included a link to my source, which you obviously neglected to click and check out for yourself. Leave it to a freaking right winger to make a judgement off of something at face value.

Get a brain....

The thing is all or most news casts are bias, and only report on things they want or how they want to in order to sway people to believe how the media/government wants people to believe.

If they do report something that is contradictory to what they are reporting then they usually only give a few seconds to a couple minutes on it so it doesn't register with a lot of watchers. They devote the majority of time reporting with what they side with.

Example: How many people who are convicted of a crime are actually guilty of the crime ? If you believe most media outlets you would say 100%. How often in the media do you see a person who was convicted of a crime now being released because they were found innocent after all. I see at least one report every year, how many more could actually be reported.
Then you see instances like I saw on the news this morning where a guy was imprisoned and put to death on circumstantial evidence.

I remember the first reported incident of 'road rage', it was the early 80's in L.A. Later that week there were many more incidents of 'road rage', people were killed as a result.

And on it goes.

Watching FOX news... there is no satisfaction for me when broadcasters get all heated about subject matter I am interested in. It's so unbecoming and loud! Rather, I feel, it is better to watch an NBC broadcaster report the same story with polished unbiased non-enthusiasm. It's just easier on the senses.

The radio at my work desk plays NPR news all day ... but I know when to turn it off. :) I also listen to a great deal of Christian radio, not music but teaching. The Janet Mefford Show is on late at night. She has some interesting guests but is dogmatic and hard to tolerate all by herself.

Its great that we still get to choose what to watch or listen to. That may not always be so, one day.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Who said anything about their "funding?" You DO KNOW that the owner of all things FOX is a Liberal? Fox News Channel is about the only conservative leaning outlet old Rupert owns..........he is heavily invested in Liberal enterprises........

NBC is owned by General Electric......far from Conservative......PBS is the Public Broadcast System, receiving funds from the Government and various other sources........not exactly conservative..............

apparently, you are the one who is lifeless and brainless...........as for your link............see. I HAVE A LIFE, don't need to waste my time slurping up the liberal kool-aid by clicking on your link............goodness, what would one expect to find?

An article prejudiced against Fox News? WELL, YEAH!

Anyone who wants to start counting "lies" from either the left or the right had better plan on being busy for many years......but the old adage is true after all......

HATERS GONNA HATE..............

ALL new agencies are in business to sell advertising.

They aren't in business to spread truth and righteousness.

Everyone needs to just stop having such silly misconceptions.


However, any media organization will be happy to tell the truth if it happens to make them money that day.

Ok.
So what percentage of news headlines are lies by all the other major news networks? Why only isolate one network in a sad attempt to make them look bad? Oh. Bias. Carry on.

o.k., how about this: I read a story about the ebola patients in the new York times. not one word about them being Christian missionaries. so not a lie, leaving out facts. fox news is no worse than anyone else. cnn, msnbc, far worse.
