they could replace "news" with the phrase "milk for the mentally challenged"

Have you had your milk today?

It's comfort news that will make you forget about your common sense

Don't worry, just watch FOX MILK and you'll feel fine about everything.

Drink MILK for good. 

Only gay evil  Liberal vegans don't drink milk.

how is media matters not legit?  They just highlight the person's own words or actions.  In this case the proof is clear.  Doesn't matter what site it came from.

That's really embarassing for FOX news.

Coach, ya gotta quit defending them by attacking the messenger.

You were happy to respond initially.  So now that the story has been proven to be absolutely legitimate and you see photographic evidence... why are you so quiet?

UPDATE: The Times responds:

Neither Steinberg nor Reddicliffe were reachable for comment Wednesday. But Times Culture Editor Sam Sifton called the Fox photo work “disgusting,” and the criticism of the paper’s reporting “a specious and meritless claim.”

“It wasn’t a hit piece,” Sifton told E&P. “It was straight news. This was a hit piece by Fox News. It is beneath comment.” Asked if the paper planned to respond to Fox’s actions, he said no: “It is fighting with a pig, everyone gets dirty and the pig likes it.”



What's most interesting is that anyone who defends this distortion is saying to the world "I like to be deceived by the news programs that I watch"  They won't mind the next time they're lied too.  They'd prefer it actually.

This is actually pretty good... The lefties are usually the only ones handing points out.  The righties usually stand firm behind whatever BS it is.  So I have to give points to you guy on the right for seeing the BS in this.

The pic where they darken the guy up..ok whatever but the second pic is ridiculous..honestly the producer needs to be fired.  He looks like some kind of elephant/hobbit hybrid.

I didn't see the "doctored" photos when Fox originally aired this 3:00AM (or whatever time nobody is watching TV) show. 

Media Matters doctored the pictures themselves and then claimed Fox News did it. 

Media Matter is as trustworthy as captured terrorist who knows we can't torture his ass.

Perhaps but who cares?  Nobody even watches those clowns and nobody even knows who the clowns pictured were? 

This is seriously bad that the left wing Nazi Media Matters can only mention "no-namers" photoshopping "no-namers".

Who the hell cares about what "The Young Turks" and the Turkey think?  LMAO!

I say Young Turkey's need to worry more about Turkey.  That country is a manure hole in need of it's people caring and focusing on it's stench and serious economic and political corruption.
