There are many lies on that list such as: Sean Hannity Inflates Atlanta Tea Party Attendance, & Fox News lies by simple omission of facts as well.

Example:
Using a term like "Pals Around With" (terrorists) which connotes that he goes out drinking with them on a regular basis!

Face it, Fox News intentionally misleads every day.

Re: Is Fox News A REAL news organization?

Fox News is a right-wing news organization, and I'm fine with that. It's those other "news" organizations that feign objectivity who I cannot watch. Fox's agenda is obvious, whereas the others hide their agenda beneath a mountain of subterfuge.

Openly biased is better than secretly biased.
