Racial controversy erupts over a fake video of FOX news anchor

[Freebird]

A firestorm erupted earlier in the week after a video purported to show Fox news host John Gibson comparing Obama's nominee to a "Monkey with a Bright Blue Scrotum". {The nominee is black}


After a vitriolic demand for his resignation, the Huffington post was forced to issue a retraction:


Huffington Post: John Gibson Did Not Compare Eric Holder To Monkey With Bright Blue Scrotum

Reporter Loses Job Over Altered Video Of Fox's Gibson

It might be safe to say - but hard to interpret.. what did you mean?

Kinda surprised that a far left piece of garbage like the Huffington Post would even bother.

While they're at it, they should issue retractions on every bit of crap that they put out.

Here ya go, dog. This might be a bit more clear on the definition of FAIL.

I think he's attempting to make a rescue by opening up the trunk. Hate clean that one up.

Hope that reporter has a good time looking for work, what a putz. I guess he could probably get a job at the Huffington Post, seems to be just the kind of reporter they would be interested in.

Yeah, you're right. I guess he's got plenty of options. MSNBC doesn't require anyone that lets the facts get in the way of telling thier biased news stories.

The scary thing is that nobody even bothered to check the story first

 

[Bucksnort101]

Like I eluded to before, why let the facts get in the way of a seemingly good inflamatory story?

Not only MSNBC the Huffy's, lots of others picked it up too

 

[Bucksnort101]

Yep, reporting the news these days is more about getting ratings than actually getting the story correct. That is why I pay little attention to the "Traditional" news media anymore.

That reminds me that when I occasionally have the wish to have god like powers - I would take a sunday drive in passing lane on the freeways in an M1 Abrams and never take my foot off the gas..

My Suburban is next closest thing.

LOL Bill...I just rely on my 320i's ability to out-manover the asshats on the road and put 'em in the rear-view mirror!

As far as the article goes...can we get a group photo of both the main-stream media AND all politicians, and stamp a big fat FAIL over 'em?

Journalism has been replaced by sensationalism.
