I don't tend to go in for media-bashing, because experience has taught me that those who listen exclusively to a single source of news are unlikely to question it, because it's telling them
what they want to hear.
But when Fox News takes out a full-page ad chastising other channels for not covering an event (which those channels
did cover) the lie
is so blatant that it's worth publicizing. Perhaps just a few of those who swallow Fox News' "fair and balanced" coverage might actually start to ask themselves why they daily swallow the Fox garbage hook, line and sinker. They even used full-page image from a CNN camera as the background to their ad!
Fortunately
CNN's Rick Sanchez publicly called Fox in their lie far more effectively than I could.
I always used to wonder why I disliked Rupert Murdoch, without ever having met him. Now I understand. It's because he creates powerful media enterprises with no respect for the truth, to serve his own crass commercial ends.
The Times in London used to be the UK's journal of record. Since Murdoch took over it's become a sleazy muckraking tabloid.
If you really think that Fox News
is, as it claims, fair and balanced please
watch the video and think again.
