Call Nell Carter and give me a break.

Nell Carter is dead.

Start a thread about the other networks then. It still is a pathetic defense to justify poor behavior with other poor behavior.

All network news pretty much sucks, but Fox takes the cake for complete suckiness. What they did was totally pathetic, and please Sirloin, give me one instance of another news network that did something as pathetic as doctoring photos to make people look like imbeciles. Did MSNBC ever pencil in a moustache on Bush?

BTW, I called Nell and she told me that Fox News sucks.

The NYT's uses farcical depictions of Fox News personalities all the time:

Seems to me like you want to start a new thread. In that thread, will I be able to assign my own political biases to the evil machinations of all the other networks, with a far longer and far less clean record than Fox? And you'll agree that not only are they biased, but have a far longer and proven records of bad "journalism" than Fox and the great graphics and altered photos ruse of '08.

Yeah, let us flog that dead horse.

Yes, but people know what those personalities look like so they know that it's a farcical depiction.

I could care less if MSNBC added a mustache to a picture of someone as they simultaneously verbally mocked them. An idiots errand IMO. Apparently a popular one though, I see the usual "Fox News is" crowd is quite taken with this big event.

Yes there truly is something special about the "Fox News is" crowd and the hard on they have for "fair and balanced" as opposed to "most trusted". Funny thing, can't seem to find anyone who thinks that an actual decade of real poor journalism overcomes the "bias" of Fox News. Which is very telling. Do 'splain how I'm wrong. Can't wait for this one.

Yeah, mocking two political hacks on a morning political hack show, as you simultaneously show hacked pictures of the same, that is sooooooo an example of bad journalism. I'm all a twitter to defend that "indefensible" mountain of a molehill.

Fox tinted myopathy? Well yes, he'll have a heaping steaming plate of it thank ya very much!

Why is the burden of proof mine to supply? Again, I agree that all network news pretty sucks. But Fox sucks the most. It's farcical how much Fox sucks.

Do you agree that the photoshopped renderings of these NYT reporters is about as low as it gets? Or do you have better examples?
