Do you agree that the photoshopped renderings of these NYT reporters is about as low as it gets? Or do you have better examples?
Well you do claim Fox is the worst don't you? I mean, these are your post right? Surely you can supply something on the level of CNN/Baghdad to buttress your point that Fox is the worst?

The former leading news network actually spends a decade lying and obfuscating truths that the whole world now knows about. They admit this went on for a over a decade.......yet the new kid on the block, only a decade old and with no such record, they are worse? So CNN (admitted violators of the basics of journalistic integrity) are “sucky” IYO, but Fox News is suckier eh? Oh yeah, you're fair and balanced.

Do ‘splain that logic to me mam.

And here, again, let me answer you. Again. I could care less if a morning talk show featuring political hacks makes fun of other political hacks both verbally and with photoshopped pictures of the same, at the very same time no less. Thank God Media Matters was there to alert us to the gianormous matter. Truly a non event, but a 9.5 for those suffering from self inflicted Fox tint syndrome. But I completely understand why the “Fox News is” crowd feels the need to latch onto these truly pathetic “examples” of how Fox is supposedly misleading the Mentats of our society into dupeification.

You could say that given the real facts of news media sources over the last 30 years, the fixation upon 10 year old "right wing" Fox News is very farcical indeed. I know you won't admit it, but it don't change that reality in the least.

Re: Fox News airs apparently altered photos

I think Fox just hit the undo button on the original photos, and returned them to their original state.

You seriously can't be comparing Fox & Friends to the Daily Show, are you? One of them goes over serious news, and the other one (FOX) is a comedy.
