Bill O’Reilly labels Rep. Foley a Democrat

[240 is Back]

See anything wrong with this graphic? The O'Reilly Factor ran it in not one, but two segments and posted it three times. I can understand if FOX and The Factor made an error the first time, but to post it repeatedly should be a firing offense, The most watched show on FOX News has now labeled the former Republican Congressman Mark Foley, who is in the middle of a sexual predator scandal that has Hastert's career on the ropes —a Democrat. Was it an error or done by choice?

I seriously don't think O'Reilly has anything to do with the graphics.............*SLAP* *SLAP*........get a hold of yourself man!

LOL...

It's just someting to take notice of.  Could be a simple mistake, could be someone at FOX wanted to drop a little psychology on casual viewers.

Point is, it happened once, and it's a funny anomaly.  If we started to see this twice a week, it'd become something very interesting to follow.  But right now it's just a weird thing from the same network that sat on the Foley emails for a year.

I say it was done accidentally on purpose. 

[240 is Back]

it might have just been some absent-minded producer.

Monster convenience though. 

I'd like to hear Hedgehog's take on this little snafu.

Everything's a conspiracy . GET HELP.

[240 is Back]

No, sunshine.

I made it very clear that it could be a simple mistake that happened to occur 3 times ona FOX show, a month before the election on the most embarassing republican in 10 years.

I just wanna let people know, so that should it happen again tonight, people will start to think a bit.

It's okay to think, nordic.  To just look at things from a diff perspective and say "what if..."

[Camel Jockey]

Shows how much class FoxNews network really has. 

You wouldn't see respectable and unbiased networks like BBC doing stupid shit like that.

[240 is Back]

I wonder if OReilly will address it tonight or not?

[ieffinhatecardio]

Of course it was done on purpose, one time is a mistake and three times shows clear intent.

You do realize that FOX employs people to check on air content don't you?

Repeated mistakes which coincidentally match the show's right agenda.

Careful, ieffin. People are going to clal ou a crazy conspiracy theorist.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll be careful.

I think certain people are neglecting the fact that networks employ people to keep an eye on what appears on the screen for the purpose of controlling accuracy and decency. Why certain people are just conveniently forgetting that fact I don't know.

FOX News: Fair and balanced...because we say so!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuYDRrmIH2w

As Rupert Murdoch's 'war on journalism' hits new lows, droves of disgruntled employees are confessing their many misdeeds, brought upon by the systematic oppression they faced at FOX News. Watch how FOX executives dictate their bias by forcing reporters to follow memos that predetermine "what they could say and how they could say it."

Rupert Murdoch has decided that the best approach to journalism is to parade opinions dressed-up as News. The reason is simple: No one can disprove an opinion, and therefore, credibility is easier to maintain.

Should they ever get caught lying, the legal process affords them protection under the First Amendment. All this, thanks in part to Congress who had the bright idea of passing a rider (hidden) Bill to deregulate the News Media. That's right, Corporate News entities can tell lies and distort the news if they so choose, and it's all perfectly legal.

To the best of my knowledge, no country can have or maintain democracy without an honest Press or, at least, one that can be held accountable.

I seriously doubt it's a mistake. Nobody has missed the fact that he's a Republican.

I can understand if perhaps they miss a thing like this on some sleepy hearing aired on C-Span, but this breaking news? Please.

My guess is that reporters "know" that they will get rewarded whenever they take cheap shots on the Democrats.

Add this to strict agenda setting of Fox News, ie actual propaganda.

I guess someone forgot to tell this particular journalist that Fox News isn't rooting for the GOP anymore, but are supposed to help "Senator" Clinton.




And it's a pretty nasty thing to do to. Trying to associate someone who we all feel is a POS with another party.

Good catch 240 or bust, good catch I must admit.

[Purge_WTF]

  Ah, the Fux News folks grasping at straw.  Gotta love it!

[240 is Back]

I'm watcing OReilly (altho I swore i never would again lol)
Every other commercial says "fair and balanced".  Reminds me of the guy who is secretly gay but can't stop talking about how straight he is, ho much pu**y he gets, or how much he hates gays.  monster overcompensation.

Oreilly asked "Is the far left involved in exposing Rep Foley"?
ironic, since Fox news has been sitting on those flirty and inappropriate emails for 10 months and never asked question one of anyone. 

[Al-Gebra]

I blame the Mexican gorillas.

[Dos Equis]

I blame the Mexican gorillas.

lol again.     Maybe the gorillas work for the CIA?

[Al-Gebra]

lol again.     Maybe the gorillas work for the CIA?

Bingo . . . in addition to training dolphins, the CIA was also working with gorillas, some of whom escaped from a facility in New Mexico and crossed the border just like human fugitives.

after partying in the sun for several years, they got serious and have now begun a bombing campaign for animal rights.  Unfortunately, the Mexicans don't know what animal rights are . . . or they just don't care.  so people are very confused.

you think that's funny?  . . . you're a sick fuck

[240 is Back]

you think that's funny?  . . . you're a sick f**k

Oh, you're the one who told everyone you were a 17-year old girl.

The hyprocricy of it if funny.  That sick bastard was allowed to work with underage children after his party knew he was hitting on them.  I know you're a repub, so your method is to attack the messenger (me) and not the message (the sick fuck posing with children), so I forgive you.

[Al-Gebra]

1. you obsess about a 17 y o girl. Why?

2. we already established that you know nothing about me . . . but yet you keep assuming things. but that's your style . . . just make it up as you go along.

3. HypocriSy.

4. Hey, look!!! there's a Rothschild standing in your backyard.
