TPM Josh Marshall: Look Who FOX NEWS Hired!
http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/

Somehow I think if CNN did this Fox would be giving them grief ...

The second-in-command at the information ministry , who spent his days reading the reports the minders wrote about visiting foreign journalists, has been employed by Fox News.

2. They must be thinking
that if we lie to them enough, eventually they will believe the lies. Or they have lied so much that they actually beleive their lies. Either way, the lie campaign doesn't appear to be going anywhere for awhile. I say good really. The more they talk, the more ammunition they give the democratic presidential candidates.
