Now Why Do We Say Fox is Not A News Channel?

Yes, TPM Muckraker has put together a slideshow of Fox Not the News fuckups that led to Number One below. You know, it's weird that the GOP Cocksuckers damn the 'lamestream' media for being biased. But what the rest of us want to know is, how come every other news organization is biased EXCEPT YOU?

November 20, 2009 - Embarrassed by so many mistakes and apologies, Fox Not the News fires off an internal memo that snarls they will be going to a zero-tolerance policy with regards to news and "jobs will be on the line here." How'd they get to that?

1. November 19, 2009 The 'Going Rouge' Incident

This is the one that was the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back. It capped an embarrassing November for Fox. In announcing GOP Cocksucker #420's (GOVERNOR QUITTER) new book, 'Going Rogue: An American Life,' the network fucked up and put up the book jacket of 'Going Rouge' a collection of essays mocking Caribou Barbie. The best part about it? They did it twice. Fox Not the News later apologized.

2. November 18, 2009 - The 'Huge Crowds' That Weren't

Fox Not the News showed video of the 'huge crowds' on hand to receive Caribou Barbie's book. The problem? The crowds were from McCain's 2008 campaign, not people waiting for the book. Fox apologizes again.

3. November 10, 2009 - 'The Daily Show' Busts Some Chops

GOP Cocksucker #467 (SEAN HANNITY) tried to make the size of GOP Cocksucker #376's (REP. MICHELLE BACHMANN) Capitol Tea Party Rally look bigger, so he used footage from GOP Cocksucker #470's (GLEN BECK) earlier rally instead. Busted, he later apologized for the mistake and laughed it off. Jon Stewart, the host of the Daily Show, the fake news program that broke the 'story' in the first place, gleefully got a rare second bite of the apple the next day and made #467 look like more a manipulative horse's ass than usual.

4. October 31, 2009 - When Halloween REALLY Got Scary

Fox was covering the special election in the very-Republican New York 23rd when it erroneously reported that moderate Republican nominee Dede Scozzafava had dropped out of the race and endorsed Doug Hoffman of the Conservative Party. Fox Not the News made the claim over and over and over. Then reality set in: http://tpmtv.talkingpointsmemo.com/?id=3810852

So after the threatening internal memo? How'd they do?

5. March 16, 2010 - The Problems Reading a Calendar

While the Teabaggers snidely tell us to "read a book," what they should be doing is telling their compatriots over at Fox Not The News to "read a calendar." In a report on the Obama adminstration's public utterances about the economy, Martha McCallum on Live Desk ran footage from Vice-president Joe Biden in 2008 criticizing the Drunken Frat Boy's economy and claimed it was from the present day.

6. June 24, 2010 - Mark Sanford

Fox Not the News identified GOP Cocksucker #308 (MARK SANFORD) as a Democrat when he bawled his eyes out on camera. Sanford, a republican, had told the people of South Carolina he hadn't been hiking the Appalachian Trail like he claimed but had actually been down in Buenos Aires fucking his mistress. Trace Gallagher apologized on-air for that one.

With thanks to TPM Muckraker
