Fox doesn’t distort the news…
…it just distorts the pictures.
Personally, I like the real big nose on Steinberg, who happens to be Jewish. But, you know, I’m sure that’s just a coincidence…

Hilarious. So Tennessee Democratic Party Executive Committee member Fred Hobbs tells the Nashville City Paper that for all he knows, Barack Obama is “terrorist connected.” But then he apologizes to the committee, saying he should have been better-prepared.
Just where did he get his initial impression?
Guess.
I was not as well prepared as I should have been when speaking with […]
…is Iran:
In an interview with former UN ambassador John Bolton today, Fox News anchor Gregg Jarrett asserted that Iran’s Shahab missile “could actually hit — I think — some military installations in the United States.” …
<snip>
The current range of Iran’s Shahab missiles is said to be 1,200 miles, but the United States and Iran are […]
Via John Cole, Scalzi explains to us the rationale behind Fox’s use of “Baby Mama”:
Back in the day – you know, when presidential candidates were respectably white – news organizations called potential First Ladies “wives.” But now that black folks are running, we can get all funky fresh with the lingo, yo. So it’s basically […]
Poor wingnuts. Just can’t help themselves.
Quoth Sadly! No:
Maybe next time FOX can express shock that catering at Obama’s fund raisers doesn’t consist solely of fried chicken and 40Oz. bottles of King Cobra.
And as one of the commenters notes, sound money is on Fox using the “N” word (”innocently,” of course) by the end of June.
The […]
So if Rupert Murdoch is this enthused about Barack Obama, how long ’til Sean Hannity learns to love?:
Tonight at the “All Things Digital” conference sponsored by the Wall Street Journal. Rupert Murdoch — Chairman of News Corp, new WSJ owner, and longtime torchbearer for conservative politics — said this about Barack Obama: “He is a rock […]
I’m tempted to say I don’t get this, but in fact I get it perfectly.
So Jimmy Carter “outs” Israel, saying it’s got about 150 nukes. Well, big surprise; Israel has long been thought to have a relatively large stable of warheads, and if you’re Israel, you’ve got to: it’s called deterrent.
But, of course, we’re currently […]
Funny. Not surprising.

Beyond hilarious. Just watch.
And, of course, the fine folks over at YouTube are already hosting other possibilities:

Now that’s some quality TV, right there.
Boy, the internets seem slow today.
So I’m at the parents’ abode, attempting to fix the virus-hijacked computer, and my mother the winger says:
Did you see Obama on Fox News Sunday?
I hadn’t, and in fact I wasn’t too keen on Obama going on Fox in the first place. Fox’s whole goal in life is to stick […]
Hilarious. So MSNBC’s “Hardball” has John McCain at Villanova University, and they’re taking questions from the audience, and one kid notes the recent story about Hillary downing a shot of Crown Royal at an Indiana campaign stop (see how non-elitist she is!) and asks McCain:
Do you think she’s finally resorted to hitting the sauce just because of […]
In which Time Magazine asks: With the end of the Bush era, is Fox News the equivalent of yesterday’s news?
Fox is still the top-rated news channel, but there are signs it’s plateauing. Its ratings started to lag in 2006, and in February, CNN’s prime time (boosted by several presidential debates) beat Fox among 25-to-54-year-olds for the […]
Boy, when Chris Wallace - that being Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace - rips into the Fox and Friends crowd for their “excessive” and “somewhat distorting” commentary on the Wright-Obama thing, maybe the worm really is turning.

Hilarious. The denials notwithstanding, you can’t tell me Fox News doesn’t do this on purpose:
