FAUX doesn’t check sources and reports bullshit? Color me shocked!

That’s not the first time it happened. They reported some other story as true a couple of years ago tat was off some bullshit blog on the web. Didn’t verify , just discussed it as factual.

Talk about bullshit blogs they take the stuff from breitfart that they know isn’t true, what do they care, it serves their agenda and murdoch is smart enough to hire people that have teh stoopid so bad they just do whatever the austrailian and the saudi prince want them to

“You gotta make up some rules,” said co-host Brian Kilmeade. “Because you’re going to have jetpacks flying into choppers!”

He’s right; that is a valid safety concern.

This is classic. Pure FOX “News”!

Where’d all the right-wingers go?

HAHAHAHAHA

Where are all the “consequences” that Murdoch promised for these stupid-ass mistakes?

I thought Fox was on Zero Tolerance? Remember the memo?

Heads must roll!!

So what?

The Big Ed RED Rally MESS was SHAMEFUL and represents A-MESS-NBC!

3 disgusting idiots talking to their portion of a dumbed down audience. Fox, the keeper of the nations low IQ’s.

Is this news? The Fox & Friends are bunch of toothless idiots in Nazi suits.

Does he have a moronic show on FOX “News”? I assume he must since that this the topic of this thread.

Here’s the other story I referred to

http://mediamatters.org/research/200806060010

The story was partially true and partially parody and they reported some of the parody as facts because they failed to research it properly before they went on national TV.

Nope just a moron. come on queen, don’t be a thread nazi. You’ll lose your lib bastion ID card.

I must admit, this is the worst show on FNC
The hosts seem nice, but it seems that their show prep is only to surf the ‘net.
Pretty lame
To compare, they make Larry King look like Charlie Rose

Ed Shultz lies everyday , Olbermann spins , and tells half truths nightly , Maddow the same .

So go ahead and pile F&F , you look like foolish hypocrites.

10,000 jetpacks @ US $100,000.00, each? Come on! That’s idiocy. But, in a funny sort of way. Like when someone’s peering down into a blender, turns it on and gets a frozen Margarita facial.

i knew when i commented on msnbc’s new brand it would be filled with partisan comments on how lame that network is…
they love to criticize but when it comes to backing up their own they run away lick cockroaches.

So are you ever going to comment on the actual topic?
Why are you teaturds so afraid to criticize your side when it makes obvious mistakes?
I did quite a bit of criticizing MSNBC yesterday but of course my whole psychological well being does not depend on a news network being right all the time.

God Bless these FINE JOURNALISTS!!!111 Remember their story about the kid who got SUSPENDED for giving a Muslin kid a HAM SANDWICH?!?!11 Or the report about the KFC that opened in FALLUJAH!?!?!?!11 Or the breakthrough that Barack Hussein was RAISED A MUSLIN?!?!?!11 Well sure those stories weren’t REAL but it fit the NARRATIVE and that’s what good Journalists DO!!!!11

Just exactly what is it us “right wingers” are supposed to do? A producer made a mistake, the on air crew ran with it, they then corrected it. Is this something new to ANY news outlet?

I won’t bother researching a gazillion links, but it’s safe to say every single network has run with false stories and retracted or corrected.

Jesus what a bunch of little kids you guys are sometimes.

Ya’ll act like they pulled a “Dan Rather” or something, geez!

Yeah, I gotta admit, that “57 states” one is hard for me to let go of. It’s a classic. You really ought not to bring Obama’s gafftastic mistakes into this thread, we have plenty of ammo.

BTW, this wasn’t a small mistake like like getting the name of a town wrong, this was about the 2nd largest city in America having flying policemen.

You really have to be a bunch of idiots to report that without triple checking the facts.

Stupid question.
The story never should have been “handed”.
I don’t blame the 3 Stooges.
They’re just idiots who read the news.
Although Kilmeade’s concern about the air traffic control of flying policemen was equally hilarious.

Yes, other networks make mistakes, and/or rush to put a story out without checking all the facts. It’s stupid when anybody does it.

WHOOPS!!!

I think Fox and Friends needs to actually check their sources before they actually report such ridiculous things. I think a few month ago they were reporting that the Taliban was training monkeys to shoot U.S. troops. But the misinformation is already out there and Fox viewers have sucked it up like a wet sponge.

Day after that: The liberal fascist agenda bleeds through EVERY WORD Rachel says, you naive idiots!

Day after that: Oh, that’s just nitpicking! So what if they made a little mistake over at Fox…

And on and on and on and on and on and on….

Yeah, that’s the way it works in network newscasts, someone hovers over the AP machine ripping copy and handing to the on-air talent as it comes out, and they just read, read ,read. Nobody checks anything, it’s breaking too fast! OMG, MORE wire copy! Hurry! Hurry!

Wanna PolitFact, murf?

(taking the top 3 categories for “truth/false” in Politifact, lumping them as “truth” and the bottom 3 as “false” numbers below are Truths – Falsities)

Beck: 6 – 12
BillO: 1 – 4
Hann: 4 – 1
Palin: 22 – 20
Angle: 1 – 2
Boehner: 16 – 14

Olbermann: 5 – 2
Maddow: 4 – 3
Schultz: 0 – 3
Pelosi: 8 – 5

So, Beck and BillO are more represented by the “false” categories as is Ed Schultz.

Maddow, Palin and Boehner even-ish. Angle’s #s too small, but she’s 2 for 3 on being false. Pelosi is more truthful than Boehner, Hannity more than his other FNC peeps. Olbermann more 2x more likely to tell truth.

So, suck it to those who announce that Olbermann/Maddow spout more LIES than their FNC bretheren.

Yep, that was pretty fucking stupid. Journalism fail. Fortunately for them, it’s a pretty minor gaffe and not a Dan Ratheresque faceplant. I think they’ll survive.

Uh, dude. It’s Fox and Friends. They read whatever gets put on the prompter, like Rick Sanchez used to, only not that stupid. There ain’t a journalist anywhere on the curvy couch, especially when Geraldo is sitting on it.

This is why I don’t watch the boob tube. To many knee jerker’s out there that will put out a story without checking the facts first….

Uh, Pabs, the people that decide what goes on the prompter are called producers or associate producers, and almost all them at Fox prove categorically that they have nothing but contempt for their loyal viewers each and every day. And you go on proving that point every time you defend them. Nice work, sunshine.

F & F come off like idiots, but then they always do. Jet packs? Who gives a shit?
Now false reporting about the world’s greatest sport is something to get pissed about.

Something comes to mind about glass houses and throwing stones…

So, let me see if I’ve got this right: CNN, HLN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR, and the Voice of Cuba tell outright preconceived lies, report stories as fact that are based on inuendo and political preference, and they all get a pass from the libtards. Fox gets some bad information but wants to break what is a very interesting story–a story, by the way that ultimately causes no harm to any of its consumers–and they get lambasted by the liberals who are looking for anything–no matter how innocuous it may be–to disparage the one media outlet who is not a lapdog of the -0bama regime and they suddenly think they’ve got some red meat to chew on.

While it is true that media sources should check the veracity of their news copy, and Fox in this extremely rare instance has its drawers flapping in the breeze for all to see, does that about sum it up?
