Who's the worst liar in newsfotainment?

[hvn_nbr_2]

This morning I was listening to Al Franken calliing for Brit Hume to resign because of his FDR lies, and then I thought about how he used to have that segment where he talked with his old school buddy Mark about Rush Limpbrain's lies. And then I got to thinking, gee, there are so many liars and false insinuators out there, which one is the worst? Which one would most obviously get the Rather treatment if there was any integrity anywhere in network newsfotainment?

I don't really know. I never watch Foney News, or any of the rest of 6-headed Pravda since election day.

1. I think Brian Williams should go

his GE suckage makes me ill.

Good for you, I haven't watched since the election either.

[pelagius]

2. Is this a trend?

>I haven't watched since the election, either.

I'm hearing this statement frequently from friends and acquaintances (who tend to be progressives). Wonder if it's significant enough to affect ratings?

Me? I got rid of my tube three years ago and haven't looked back.

3. I have watched significantly less since the election

Frankly, there can't be as much interest in politics across the board. I haven't heard anything about ratings, but they've got to be down.

4. Franken is right on target. Bret Hume is a lying asshole

5. it is impossible to get worse than the Limbag itself

he's the worst of a very bad and very large bunch.

6. worst liar in newsfotainment?

99.99% of Faux and most of the others on CNN, MSNBC.

7. 3 way tie: Russert, Woodruff, Hune

8. Sean Hannity is the WORST offender by far!

That guy hasn't spoken one word of truth in over 4 years.

[cestpaspossible]

9. But Brit Hume is supposedly a news anchor.

Whereas Hannity is explicitly a pundit.

[Roland99]

12. Even then, Hannity stinks far worse than any others

and, given the title of this thread "newsfotainment"

10. Shit Fume

...maybe not the worst prevaricator, but he carries more gravitas than a retarded clown like O' Reilly, or Hannity.

11. Michael Reagan is the "worst" liar...

...by which I mean, "the most transparent". Fortunately, his listenership is pretty small compared to others.

Hannity is the "worst" in the sense that he does the most damage with his dishonesty IMO.
