Midnight Judges Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Burgundy Burner, there was absolutely no mention of town halls or other gatherings during that segment. You lied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsburySkinsFan Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 Hannity: it was a week tomorrow that you announced on this very program that you wanted people to come. Twenty thousand plus people showed up. Were you as surprised as I was?REP. MICHELE BACHMANN, R-MINN.: Absolutely I was. We had no idea. When I was on your show last Friday evening, that was the initial shot that was heard around the world. And people heard that, Sean. Today people told me they heard that call out on your show on Friday night, and they immediately started contacting other people. And this was totally word of mouth. This was nothing that we organized, nothing that we planned. Does not compute...error... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aREDSKIN Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 That's because FOX news is the only mainstream news outlet that repeatedly deceives it's audience. But it works out though because the FOX Republican audience is the only audience that finds out they have been made to look like idiots, and reacts by crawling back for more. You are just CLUELESS. Go check out who watches Fox news. Not Hannity, but Fox news. It not just Repubs. :doh: Idiots?? Look in the mirror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy Burner Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Dude, you're just digging yourself deeper and deeper. They got busted trying to make something look bigger than it was. Just admit it.They got busted during the original by having their producers rallying the crowd.....busted. FACT - You are punch drunk right now Well, I was considering joining your protest of the Redskins owner. But when you accuse me of being drunk, then I need to reconsider. I don't drink and haven't touch a drop of alcohol in twenty-nine years. I saw what I saw. MJ, I see that you are calling me a liar or that I am lacking in memory. Liberals and dems, have you ever wondered why personal insults don't work. I will not do the same to you. I saw the humor in what Stewart did and he is very one-sided in his attacks. That is fine and that is his prerogative to do so. I understand that many of you enjoy his show. That is fine too. Before I am personally attacked and called names any further in here, have a good day everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Punch Drunk has nothing to do with booze. If you were considering and hadn't yet....then you weren't serious. Sorry you got busted here yourself. Take care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy Burner Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Burgundy Burner, there was absolutely no mention of town halls or other gatherings during that segment. You lied. This was just one portion of a bigger segment. If I had to guess, it was about twenty minutes of talking about the various protests of healthcare. Call me what you wish if it makes you feel any better. Out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liberals and dems, have you ever wondered why personal insults don't work. I will not do the same to you. I called it like it is. Nothing personal or insulting about it. You lied. That is the truth. I merely proved that you lied. If you want to be treated as if you have credibility, you have to stop lying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baculus Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Are most of us seriously surprised that Fox News, and Sean Hannity, would lie about this? Fox News, Sean Hannity, and Michelle Bachmann have zero credibility: It really is astounding that anyone listens to them. Here is the worst part: FNC doesn't even care when they are caught doing this. The laughed when they were called out for the "CNN didn't cover the teat party march" lie, and, in this case, they know their audience will readily believe anything they broadcast. It really is sad.

mjah Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I just watched the original segment. That was outright deception on the part of Fox News. There's no spinning it. Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look in the mirror. Sorry, but NO ONE lies like Fox News. You know, it is pathetic whenever anyone from the Right dismisses this stuff. It becomes either 1) their words were taken out of context, or 2) everyone else does it. Baloney. There is no excuse for it, nor is there any reason to shrug this off. So, I guess you also agree with Rupert Murdoch and Glenn Beck that Obama hates white people as well, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peeping Wizard Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 You didn't watch the clip did you. BTW, for the record I don't think that Jon Stewart is that smart, I think it more that Fox News is THAT bad. Just curious, do you feel the same way about MSNBC who is the mirror image of Fox and intentionally panders to the left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baculus Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 LOL Fox news is still doing it:http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,572549,00.html That is really something. They really are "catapulting the propaganda," to use a George W. Bush quote. They are worthless as a source of honest news reporting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 This was just one portion of a bigger segment. If I had to guess, it was about twenty minutes of talking about the various protests of healthcare.Call me what you wish if it makes you feel any better. Out. Not to pile on here but ... Perhaps during the actual segment you are correct. I didn't see it. However, on the transcript page MJ linked, from Foxnews itself, there's no mention of any other rally and the picture is of the rally in September with a caption that says 'Between 20 and 45,000 people assembled on Capitol Hill to protest health care reform.' It's pretty deceptive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peeping Wizard Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 No it doesn't. Media, by definition, is one person's subjective interpretation of an event reported to other people. As long as it is human beings reporting on those events, bias, deception and to some degree pandering will ALWAYS exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt MSNBC has some serious Obama leg humping going on. But they don't flat out lie, deceive, and make stuff up like FOX does. If they do, by all means post it.

Baculus Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Just curious, do you feel the same way about MSNBC who is the mirror image of Fox and intentionally panders to the left? What a predictable response. "MSNBC does it too!" Give me a break. MSNBC does nothing of this scale. The closet thing they have done in recent memory was the omission of the man's face -- the one with the rifle -- during that one protest. Meanwhile, we have seen Fox lies 10x more frequently than that. You and others have sad attitude, though -- you claim the "left" does it (even though MSNBC is corporate owned and not "left"), so, to you, it is all right if Fox does it as well.
