Once Again, FNC Producers Roll the Wrong Footage

Fox executives, embarrassed by the flap, are considering "serious disciplinary action" against someone in the control room, according to our friends at the Swamp.



In the control room? So, a producer in the control room can instantaneously punch in archive footage from 2008 for a November 2009 report?

Actually, yeah, that could probably happen pretty easily. I'd say the footage is all archived digitally, and it might not be that hard to hit the wrong footage. Just judging by how easy it is at a newspaper to click the wrong photo or accidentally use a photo from the wrong NHL game ... it's not hard to believe that's what happened here. Is it what happened? I don't know. But it's certainly happened at other news outlets.

FNC "We alter real life. You are sold a preconceived narrative."

Hannity is w/o blame. In all things. In his "apology" about the wrong footage on his show the guy made it clear that the real stooges in this story are them at the Daily Show.

Stewart had some fun with it:

"By contrast, Fox presents an alternative reality where Republican hypocrisy, scandals and abuses of power are either spun into something they are not or, more frequently, simply not mentioned at all. As such, the depths of the historically unprecedented failure that was George Bush's presidency remain virtually unknown to Fox viewers. In the bargain, as the young Obama administration moves forward, attempting to deal with countless disasters they've inherited, issue after issue now comes as a complete surprise to the majority of Fox's audience."

reading that reminded me of someone being lost in space

nothing bush did or did not do was reported on fox - being told by pundits it was not means --?????????/

believeing what i have read you have said makes me think

There are two theories to arguing with liberals. Neither one works

Exactly. It's a sad commentary that this organization exists solely for the purpose of discrediting the administration and not for any accurate news presentation whatsoever.

You can see the results of such programming on certain individuals on this thread.

It's kind of like the speech Ian McKellen, as the nefarious Number Two, made in the last episode of the Prisoner:

"The man is impersonating Number Two. He is not Number Two. You will know he is not Number Two because he is not."

Well, shoot, ma, that explains everything.

Did I actually SAY that? Or just think it?

There's no need for anyone else to "argue with liberals" . . . they do it well enough amongst themselves.

Unlike the mono-flavored "conservative" side of the coin, there's diversity of thought, aplenty, on the liberal side.

You a re kidding, right?
On principle, I agree, there SHOULD be a diversity of opinion among any group of true "liberals". In reality, they are a rather monolithis group. They cannot even allow someone who disagrres with the party line on abortion address the National Convention!
Look at the diversity liberals on health care--they are all for it. Yep; thats diversity for you. You can believe anything we allow.

When was the last time you recall that the House and Senate Democrats voted on a measure as a unanimous block, straight down party lines? It happens rarely, which is an indication that there is more of a spread of "far left to moderate right" members in that bigger tent.

How much diversity can be said to exist on the other side?

None.

They are? I don't think the idea of forcing people to purchase insurance industry products is a great one. A bare bones single payer coverage plan for lower income people would be better IMO.

Contrary . . . it exists, like all commercial media outlets, to generate income by apealling to a market segment that is underserved by anyone else. Murdoch products are hardly different than those from General Electric, Time Warner, Westinghouse, Disney, Sony or for that matter, Larry Flynt.
