Wow.
Just wow.
There it is.

FAUX NEWS slanting and spinning The news right in front of your face.

Can you imagine a liberal with a mike from Democracy Now jumping in the middle
of a McCain rally or Conservative group's gathering and shouting out,
"Don't you people believe in feeedom of speech?"

Absurd.

But vile in its attempt to slant and distort the whole gathering.

There is FOX NEWS' corruption, layed out
for everyone to see, hear, touch and smell.

If only the vast majority of American's weren't completely brainwashed into not noticing..­..

[patrickgarret]

But Bombs killing 100,000 Iraqi children, men and women. NO PROBLEM.
Love - Republicans.

Some people go to protests to demonstrate their views and some go just to get on television. I don't get my political views from guys with stud collars and spiked hair but Fox News always interviews those guys.

Sure they're inarticulant they only came to get on television. And they know Fox will give them the attention they crave.

[drumz]

What makes you think they were there just to get on TV?
As if there aren't enough things to protest about from the past 7 years, SHEESH!

[prattvictory]

I've been to many protests. There are always those on the fringe. When you talk to them they have nothing to say. They are there just to get the attention not to further any cause.

But you can ask such questions, you've never gotten off your couch.

"Far left groups'
"Our own Grif Jenkins"

Well, F$%k Fox News.

When Obama is president they are going to have a hard time with access to the real news so they will have to keep making it up.

FOX News: the Lyndon LaRouche of Infotainment!

++++

[Liberal2]

Oh, lordy....p­erfect!

[kenfoh]

can I get a "Buck Fox News!!" people??? ;-)

[tlgeiger62]

How do any of these protesters think they are going to be taken seriously when they behave this way.

[musselmanm]

It shows me that I probably agree with them!
Are you just trolling?

[Alethea]

How does Fox expect to be taken seriously when they behave like propagandists?

[drumz]

How can Faux think they have any credibility after they way they have been the mouthpiece of the far right and this corrupt administration?

[caseyblab]

The reporter boy went after the protestors- they couldn't get him off their legs. They apparently didn't know if he was a crazed person when he started shrieking about freedom of speech and chewing on his little sponge microphone. Ward Churchill gave him cpr while the blond lady back at the mother ship of fox news tried her best to beam Griffy up. Is he ok?

[Chrisa]

Black Bloc. These groups are famous for going to protests, swearing their heads off and acting like inarticulate morons, and then bringing the cops down on serious protestors by starting riots.
Their "leftist" intentions aren't leftist at all - they just want to destroy.

[realityczech4u]

I searched YouTube for a video of Jenkins laying his hands on Ward Churchill and counldn't find one.
Anyone have a link?

[kevx]

Fox showed it on purpose. They want the left to look crazy. It won't work.

[teasley]

It will be interesting to see if CNN or CBS reporters are treated the same way at the Republican convention. Probably not. With exeption of the left wing protesters the people there will be adults.

[gigi09]

I Love It! NO MORE FOX News! Obama/Biden 08!

[hjfraser2002]

The only way to get rid of them is to change all the people that watch them. I don't see that happening anytime soon.

[RushLiberal]

Oh, I also think the headline is incorrect - that reporter walked directly into the protesters head on.

Everyone knows - except this reporter obviously thus the lower Commentator IQ -- that you can't walk against a thousand people and not get pushed - but he wasn't swarmed.

[tinatoledo31]

oh yeah these guys are great. this is the change you people want in america? what a bunch of uneducated kids.

[alguien]

oh give it a rest. fox news has been asking for it for years. maybe they'll eventually learn to be less antagonisitc but i sincerely doubt it. they'll just play the victim card the way they always do and whine that their rights are being trampled on.

[Tobiasism]

Well educated reporter, I suppose?

[Tobiasism]

Uneducated kids?
Why because they are angry that McCain has mortgaged their future?

[Alethea]

No, the uneducated are the docile, apathetic ones. Even though I don't want riots in Denver (I live there) I glad to see people getting out there and protesting.

If you aren't mad as hell about this administration, then you clearly haven't been paying attention.

[Arguman]

leftist protests? Why do we never hear of "rightist" protests?

[kenfoh]

because they are good at spinning their "protests" as honorable executions of their 1st Amendment rights.... they are really good at deception.­. no doubt about it...

[Blakecr]

Because the "rightists" like to click their heels and fall in line...

[Alethea]

I was just thinking the same thing.

[Liberal2]

That's what their lobbyists do.

[SimplyBkuz]

the right can't think for themselves, they only repeat what they're told.

[chitown8]

Why isn't this on the first page!

[djk20042]

OK, so why do liberals accuse a fair and balanced network like FOX of bias, when they clearly love watching MSNBC pretend that their commentators are unbiased, Edward R Murrow-type journalists?

[greylox]

**It's ALL corporate media, but at least MSNBC has the occasional commentator with a brain stem.

[rock2casbah]

You would not now what fair and balanced news coverage is at this point. Eight years of Fox stepping over that line a long time ago has you thinking that any network not explicity praising and cheerleading everything Bush is somehow liberal. No that's called reporting the news. Obama is the brightest, freshest, most dynamic force on the political scene today. What are the networks supposed to do, ignore it and spin each story in a negative light like Fox?

[Tobiasism]

Fair and Balanced?
That is so old and tired it is like John McCain
