    But that's the thing. Helping cops is not in the policy, but putting kids life in danger is against policy. And he drove thru several feet of water to help stranded cops.

    My point................new organizations will tell you a lie in order to get you to watch their show. It makes them money. Its the capitalist way to run a business. Do whatever it takes to make money; even lie. But this lie about the bus driver is not to change your vote on political parties.

    But what about someone that lies about what Obama says, like FAUX news does. Is that to change your vote or to make money. Either way, it doesn't look good when you lie about what the president says.................whether its to make money or change votes. Its chicanery!

    Oh, so Fox was "just" lacked the journalistic ability to check a source....wasn't duplicitious.

    Well, that makes it okay then.

    So because you think the MSM is telling 1 side(which is wrong because they are not), then it must be ok for FAUX news to be partisan and ONLY cover the other side????? Is that what you want me to believe? Because if it is, then you just indirectly admitted and want me to believe that FAUX news is only telling 1 side of the argument...........not both sides!

    You see how this pans out if you just think for a second? Your wrong assumptions(MSM is only telling one side of the story) makes you believe that your news organizations can only tell one side of the story.................and then the public can decide between the two. That's a farce plain and simple!

    .

    Well when someone says Fox put up an altered video they knew was altered that said something different than what was meant, especially when it wasn't their video, he should be able to back up that statement. Just like another lie I'm about to show where the Left said Fox didn't do something when they did.

    Nope! Hannity claimed Obama said something that Obama never claimed. He lied for some strange reason.

    You can try to weasel out of this all you want, but it only makes me question your intelligence the longer you do! Now prove me wrong or just go troll somewhere else!

    You noticed Hannity said it with a man right next to him. Was that a Liberal or Conservative? Did they correct Hannity? Did Hannity correct himself? They don't stay with it long enough to know the truth. It could have been a mistake that was corrected, but we'll never know from that clip, will we.

    No matter if they corrected him or not. Hannity shouldn't have lied in the first place..........in order to change your vote!

    Now try to prove me wrong or just go troll somewhere else. Your lack of thinking abilities is hurting my head! LOL

    Why would he come out and lie with someone there to correct him? It just couldn't be he misunderstood what was said and misquoted him could it? That is way above the a possiblity isn't it. Not like when you know your flat out lying is it.

    Tell me Rexob. I show you where they accuse Fox of not talking about gun control and then give you a web site where Fox is doing that very thing, with a Liberal and then show you where O'Reilly would be talking about it again and you say" Try again. You will get it eventually.........or maybe not. Do you know what that says about you? When I put the proof right in front of you and you won't believe it? No doubt. No maybe. No mistake, it's right there. No other way to look at it even.

    That would be fine if the viewer is given an honest look at both sides, fox does not do that. fox employes paid 'Democrat' spokes people to offer up what they are told to.
    They are paid to lie, paid to be a 'Democrat' so fox can fool idiots into thinking they are getting 'both sides'.

    So you CANT admit that Hannity lied and you CANT show me where a liberal commentator lied. Who's belly sloshes from too much kool aid???? Your projection is laughable!

    - - - Updated - - -

    Still waiting on you to admit that Hannity lied. No matter how much you from this, doesnt mean that Hannity was telling the truth or even doing proper opinion journalism. Take your time!!!

    That bull crap. They do not and most of the time they either disagree or point out another view than the Fox commentator

    I don't mean to be disrespectful but I think you have a problem. You didn't understand what I said at all. You have a preconceived thing in your head that makes you talk in circles.

    Hanity could very well have lied. But he also could have heard it wrong. It doesn't make sense that he would tell a lie right there where a person could catch him at it. But it's not iron clad like we have caught MSNBC doing. I would think you are honest, you would have to admit, that that much.

    And since you don't understand anything I have said at all...............you have a preconceived thing in your head or something! I can use this same logic against you too!

    COULD very well have?????? He did whether you CAN accept it or not. The longer it takes you to accept facts................you know the rest!

    Kids? There is more to the story. So I'll not comment since I don't know about it.

    Personally, I think Obama is the biggest liar I ever saw and that can be proven time and again. And it is the job of the press to point that out. But I agree there are times when the news spins the headline to infer a meaning that really can't be ironed out in the actual reporting. This isn't limited to Fox.

    It is a competitive business and 24 hr news has had a great impact.

    A lie is when someone knows the truth, but lies about it. Now he very well could have lied as I said before. But he also could have heard it wrong. You want to tell me that is impossible to do? Because it isn't.

    I notice none of you are even trying to defend the many lies and edited tapes MSNBC has put up that can't be anything but lies.

    Of course they put paid pundits up there to discuss matters and yes, some Democrats are rather blue dog. But is a Democrat stands up there to lie to you don't blame FOX, blame the Democrat. This is all about who lies, isn't it?

    I've seen more than my share of vein popping arguments on FOX from both sides where I rarely see that in other places. CNN does it more now that Fox has gained ground with it. It is a good format to use. Yet, Fox and everyone else in the business will at times present a report that is opinion and treat it as news. That sucks.

    As a FOX fan I say that sucks. I wish they didn't do that. Don't you also wish your favorite news didn't do that?

    Exactly a lie is being wrong with the intent to deceive. It hinges on your INTENT!!!

    Therefore being wrong doesn't mean someone is lying, but sadly the GOP doesn't understand that. They think any time someone is wrong, they must be lying! Who knows why their ideology makes them believe something like this!
