Who do you believe: FOX NEWS or your lying eyes?
Edited on Sun Dec-07-03 01:57 PM by TruthIsAll
Today Fox reported that Bin Laden announced that he will fight the U.S. in Iraq. Fox also reported that Saddam almost used his WMD at the start of the war.

Why should we believe this, if the following are true?

Fact: Fox is a propaganda arm for this administration.
Fact: Fox is shown exclusively to troops in Iraq.
Fact: Bin Laden met with CIA in Dubai July 2001.
Fact: We supported Bin Laden in the Afghan/Soviet war.
Fact: Bush's first business partmer was Osama Bin Laden's brother.
Fact: Bush and Rumsfeld sold WMD to Saddam in 1983.
Fact: Saddam and Bin Laden have been bitter enemies.
Fact: The authenticity of Bin Laden's videos are very suspect.
Fact: Bin Laden has avoided capture, against all odds.
Fact: Saddam has avoided capture, against all odds.
Fact: Fox has repeatedly reported Bin Laden's threats.
Fact: Al Qaeda hijackers were trained in the U.S.
Fact: After 9/11, Bin Laden's relatives were flown out of the U.S.
Fact: Bush needs to keep us in a constant state of fear.

Every day FOX pounds into our consciousness that Al Qaeda, Bin Laden and Saddam are our mortal enemies. Why should we believe it? They lie about everything else.

3. I'm thinking about revising my addition
Edited on Sun Dec-07-03 02:21 PM by higher class
I've watched the doubled standard hypocrisy of several decades of hate of communism and defense against communism, plus incalculable death defending against nazism and I measure it against the policies of doing business by our leaders and where our leaders are taking us. I could fill in the gaps, but I'll jump to the end. I now think it's Murdoch who owns the world and our form of government is only a delusion and totally compliant with him. What's happening now, is that all their plans are coming together while they still have us pretending otherwise.

5. FAUX NEWS
FAUX is the World Wrestling Entertainment of journalism.

It's a sport, not newscasting.

6. My freakin gym has it on full time.
And I am forced to watch it when I am on the stair machine. Yesterday, they had a breaking fox news poll that showed great approval for GW, despite all other much more credible polling reports that show the opposite. It is nothing but lies and propaganda.

Everyday I see them tell countless lies, mistruths and propaganda. It is not a news source, itr is a propaganda machine for the repugnant party.
