Fact vs. Fox-tion
Congressman Bernie Sanders (I-VT) chronicles some of the brilliant fair and balanced reporting coming out of the journalistic anus known as Fox News Channel.
One of the best:
FOX-TION: "I think we have done it well, despite the complaints. And I've mentioned at this point after World War II, when we had American troops in Germany. They were complaining. They wanted to come home. They were being attacked by young Nazis." [Ann Coulter, Hannity&Colmes, (August 4, 2003)]
FACT: Insurgent attacks on allied troops in post-war Germany were almost non-existent. There were no guerilla campaigns or coordinated efforts at sabotage. There were zero combat casualties in post-war Germany. [Slate.com]
It's a good read. Enjoy!
