13:30: Okay, so a one-letter slip-up could be understandable. How about a whole headline?

I was crusing through the radio dial yesterday on my way in to work and caught one of the local country music stations morning shows. They were talking to one of the anchors for Fox News and I actually heard one of the DJs suggest that Fox News is the most balanced news source available.

I almost choked.

And then I changed the station. I knew there was a reason I don't listen to that morning show.

I'm rooting for this one to make it onto The Daily Show. It's perfectly up their alley. XD

Jon: "The Republicans have a new way to deal with their own when they screw up -- make them into Democrats!!!"

Stephen: "This just in, from the most balanced source of news: Foley is actually a Democrat! That explains everything!"

Any other station, and I'd be inclined to agree it was an error. It just makes Fox News look even worse.

And in that case, Fox News should be making a very public announcement about firing the person responsible for making their station look so shoddy. If they don't, then they are as good as admitting to doing it intentionally. It has to be one or the other.

So, what say you to this?

Hah, I was wondering how FNC would try to spin this. I mean, how many ways can you water down "50-yr-old child molester"? Then I realized this was Fox I was talking about...

When in doubt, lie, lie, lie.

It's things like this that make me paranoid about all the things we DON'T see happening in our government these days.

They then declared "We are at war with Eurasia; we have always been at war with Eurasia."
