Sigh. You are so blind. Oh well.
But alas, the thread is not about me.
They never are.
You'd be surprised.
Nothing surprises me.
Let's say that Megyn Kelly says with determination and confidence that the sky is purple. A website sources a youtube clip of her saying that in full context, then points out that she was, in fact, lying, because it can be proven that the sky is in fact blue. Are you saying that the website that made that proof is not to be believed simply because they pointed it out, or because they might be one of the liberals that you and so many others hate so much?
Par for the course would be in the relentless crusade to discredit anything said on FOX, the website would fail to mention it was dusk when Megyn made her comment, and there were indeed purple hues prominently visible at the time. And pink, and scarlet, light-red, and orange. And the hit and run is complete.
Typical alloak taking someone else's words and applying his own spin to it and telling us all that he knows what they were really trying to say and avoiding the original point. SSDD
I don't understand your line of thinking here. I don't think that's what he was really trying to say at all.
And I thought you said this thread wasn't about me.

Why not compare apples to apples?
What's the comparable apple on FNC?
I don't understand the difficulty in discerning when they shift gears from a discussion-type format into reporting hard news.
"Flight 103 had 73 passengers on board when the aircraft was forced to land in a cornfield north of Hastings, Nebraska......Now lets bring in Bob Beckel to comment on the rescue efforts and possible voting patterns of the EMT's."

Yeah, you know what he was trying to say with his hypothetical example. And then changed it to suit your own bias.

JMO but I believe that they look at it as all news and if it was said on Fox then it must be true. I think a good majority of the people who watch that channel form their opinions of what is going on in the world based on what they hear from the talking heads on that news outlet. I don't have any links, polls or studies to prove this as if is JMO.
There has been a very nasty witch-hunt like scandal regarding Brian Williams
Does not appear to be much of a "witch hunt" now. Brian lied about a war time story and some Vets who were there and were actually shot at took offense, big time. Big difference.
Still waiting for examples of FOX News anchors incorporating lies into their newscast. Newscasts, not editorial programming. I'll even settle for one time occurrences, not lies that were told repeatedly for years afterward.

Politifact is a left-wing blog.
It is their mission to try and bring down Fox News using any means necessary including distorting information.Evidently neither Politifact nor you can tell the difference between hard news and opinion.
Luckily for The American People, they fail. The People know better.
That could be a reason Fox News is the most watched, most trusted.I cite something like National Review and its dismissed. But they consider Politifact to be a legitimate source of information.
The National Review is a conservative news website while Politifact is a non partisan website that fact checks all the news networks as well as comments of politicians including our President and comments on those they find to be false. They report what they find and classify it for degrees of truth.
In fact if you compare Obama to Boehner they show Boehner has a higher % of truthful statements, 26% to 21%, then the President.
If they were a liberal website trying to discredit Fox and other conservative news sources why would they critique Liberal leaning press and politicians?
You and the other conservatives here have yet to show any proof that the website is trying to sabotage Fox News or has a liberal bias.
BTW, I am not saying the National Review is not a quality conservative publication but let's be honest they take a conservative slant on things so you should understand why Liberals would be skeptical when you quote them as the truth.

Enough with the "they" crap. I read articles at NRO fairly often. I might not agree, but I read. Condescend much?

No I am not saying that at all. But how about if the website in question was dedicated to pointing out the mistakes of Fox News (which it calls lies) but fails to discuss the mistakes of any other news outlets?
And none of this changes the fact that many on the left routinely dismiss any source of information that can be considered conservative.
Why not compare apples to apples?
What's the comparable apple on FNC?
I don't understand the difficulty in discerning when they shift gears from a discussion-type format into reporting hard news.
"Flight 103 had 73 passengers on board when the aircraft was forced to land in a cornfield north of Hastings, Nebraska......Now lets bring in Bob Beckel to comment on the rescue efforts and possible voting patterns of the EMT's."
Not everyone who watches Fox News is a smart as you Alloak. Do you really think the average viewer of Fox News can discern what is strictly News and what is commentary or opinion?

I think a good majority of the people who watch that channel form their opinions of what is going on in the world based on what they hear from the talking heads on that news outlet. I don't have any links, polls or studies to prove this as if is JMO.
I think people can differentiate between news and opinion. People are not a fraction as stupid as you seem to think they are, even conservatives. I am wondering, though, why a generation seems to get its news from Jon Stewart. But that's a topic for a whole other thread.

Brian voluntarily left the air, thinking it was just till the internal investigation into his news stories was completed. Presuming that he would be vindicated of any wrong doing. The network took other action and suspended him for six months with no pay. (this is sounding like THE FAX from ABB history isn't it? ) I looked into the matter and found a few things, and I think the basis of the witchhunt on Brian Williams comes down to money, and the network wanting to save money. All businesses have budgets, if they save on the salary of one employee, they can re-allocate that money elsewhere and I think that is what they are trying to do.
"Mr. Williams just extended his contract with NBC in December, with the terms reported to be as much as $10 million a year for five years. At the time, Deborah Turness, the president of NBC News, called him one of “the most trusted journalists of our time.”
http://www.salon.com/2015/02/11/trouble_mounts_for_brian_williams_nbc_reportedly_looking_into_his_expense_accounts/
Looking into his expense accounts? The networks authorize sending him to locations to do stories, supply the backup support personnel, and I don't think he books his own hotels, what kind of expenses are in question?
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/brian-williams-israel-hezbollah-rockets
"During a 2006 appearance on "The Daily Show," Williams told host Jon Stewart about the same experience (as Williams reported)"
AND NOW Jon Stewart suddenly resigns from his show. Yeah right, coincidences aren't usually coincidences.
The RPG Iraq invasion 2003
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/pilots-brian-williams-no-rpg
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/06/business/brian-williamss-apology-over-iraq-account-is-challenged.html?_r=1
The account Brian gave of the flight over Iraq was corroborated by CNN reporter Richard Krell, who has since basically recanted what he said, saying his memory is now bad.
http://money.cnn.com/2015/02/05/media/brian-williams-iraq/index.html?iid=Lead
Williams was in the back of Krell's aircraft along with three other NBC staffers. Krell referred to his Chinook as the "second bird" in the formation. The "first bird," right in front of the "second bird," was struck by the RPG. All three of the helicopters were hit by small arms fire, Krell said, supporting Williams' past claims about that.
The three Chinooks took evasive maneuvers. Krell's helicopter dropped off its payload, then met up with the other two about 45 minutes later. That may explain why the other crew members told Stars and Stripes that Williams arrived in the area later.
REMARKS: Brian has been a mainstay of Nightly News. He is a likable reporter to millions of viewers. Did he see something while flying over Iraq that is of concern to the US govt.? Are they the ones pressuring the network to relieve him of his post, and asking them to dredge up dirt on any or all of his stories from 2003 till now (12 years). Investigating a journalists stories going back twelve years is not very commonplace. Someone is behind this. It's not even close to St. Patrick's day but Brian is getting the old Shillelagh. The network itself has had it's problems. Remember when someone sent white powder to Tom Brokaw, when he was there after 9/11/01, and he was put on Cipro? I think the cast of potential people moving in the shadows who want Brian out is unknown to most of us, but some of the power players stop at nothing to achieve their goals. I think it is terrible, but there is not much we can do.
I hope he keeps his audience friendly demeanor, that made people feel like he represented them, understood them and just came to talk with them and bring them news. I adored Brokaw, and Brian is not like him at all on the air but he found a place in people's homes bringing them the news and shame on NBC for not realizing that people like him and that they should stop the witchhunt. As to the variances in reporting on the stories he covered, Brian could try to remain as factually consistent as he can. Wherever he ends up, his broadcasts will be liked by the people.

Of course the liberals didn’t think it was funny but that is too bad.
No “lie” there either.
Fox News' Anna Kooiman Falls For Parody About Obama Funding Muslim Museum
(Note - At least they apologized for this one)
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/06/fox-news-anna-kooiman-obama-parody _n_4053994.html
Anna Kooiman reported the exact same information as did The N.Y. Times, Associated Press and NBC News.
No “Lie” here.
Fox News Posts Onion Obama Story Amid Real News
http://www.thewrap.com/tv/article/fox-news-site-posts-satiricial-onion-obam a-story-amid-real-news-22840/
Again, clearly stated as a parody from The Onion.
The liberal can’t stand it when anyone has some fun with their false messiah.
Again, no “lie” here.
By the way, I seem to see a trend here. One particular subject seems to drive Fox News to report something as news without conducting any fact checking whatsoever. Can you spot the subject? Look real hard.

Bingo!!!
Bingo?
Wrong again son.
Since Bingo isn’t working for you, try the lottery aka: gambling for idiots.
Still no proof of Fox News lying.
If you want good examples of lying; see obama, hillary or williams
There we have outright lying to push their political agenda of to pump up their celebrity.
Luckily for The American People, they fail. The People know better.
That could be a reason Fox News is the most watched, most trusted.And this, my friends, explains the dumbing down of America. This explains "low-information voters" in a nutshell.
I don't believe that. By nature, the low-information voter does not follow politics closely, thus it's
doubtful that FOX would hold their interest for more than 15-30 seconds. Jerry Springer, TMZ or one
of the courtroom shows is probably more their speed.

Still waiting for examples of FOX News anchors incorporating lies into their newscast. Newscasts, not editorial programming. I'll even settle for one time occurrences, not lies that were told repeatedly for years afterward.
One example?

Again
One more try. Please read carefully...
Examples of FOX NEWS ANCHORS incorporating lies into a NEWSCAST.
BTW, you don't answer questions but you ask them?
Seriously, you are a cipher.

Politifact is a left-wing blog.
It is their mission to try and bring down Fox News using any means necessary including distorting information.Evidently neither Politifact nor you can tell the difference between hard news and opinion.
Luckily for The American People, they fail. The People know better.
That could be a reason Fox News is the most watched, most trusted.I cite something like National Review and its dismissed. But they consider Politifact to be a legitimate source of information.
Enough with the "they" crap. I read articles at NRO fairly often. I might not agree, but I read. Condescend much?
But, let's be clear on this.
Let's say that Megyn Kelly says with determination and confidence that the sky is purple. A website sources a youtube clip of her saying that in full context, then points out that she was, in fact, lying, because it can be proven that the sky is in fact blue. Are you saying that the website that made that proof is not to be believed simply because they pointed it out, or because they might be one of the liberals that you and so many others hate so much?
No I am not saying that at all. But how about if the website in question was dedicated to pointing out the mistakes of Fox News (which it calls lies) but fails to discuss the mistakes of any other news outlets?
And none of this changes the fact that many on the left routinely dismiss any source of information that can be considered conservative.
Except Politifact does the same fact checking for all of the major news networks Doug so fact checking your claim forces me to state on the truth-o-meter your statement is "Pants on Fire" 😛

OK. You've convinced me. Politifact is non-partisan. Never let it be said I refused to change my mind in the face of evidence.
