Faux New's Asman refers to Republicas as "we"
Edited on Wed May-25-05 04:40 PM by RobertSeattle
Fox Freudian slip: Asman asked Lott why a compromise was needed when "we" had the votes for the nuclear option

http://mediamatters.org/items/200505250007

ASMAN: So, Senator, if we should have done it and if we had the votes to do it in the Senate -- if you guys in the Republican Party did -- then why did you need a compromise?

5. Why should they at this point? Sad to say, but
There are three kinds of people when it comes to Faux News:

There are the ones who know its right wing crap and therefore don't trust anything they see on the channel.

There are those who know its right wing crap, but love it for that very reason simply pretend that its "Fair and Balanced".

and

There are those who are too stupid to notice the bias.



The first group either wasn't watching or isn't suprised. The second group saw it, took notice, but didn't really give a shit. As for the third group: well, they didn't catch it. They have been watching Faux for years now and still haven't caught on. Why would they now?



But, yeah, it is amazing they they sometimes don't even try to hide their bias anymore.

2. And they STILL claim to be "fair and balanced"
They're total RNC propaganda and that "misstatement" proved it.

3. An Appropriately Named Newsman
He just left off the last "s." That was to save him from being called "Assman."

6. Brian Williams election night 2000: "we Republicans"
He said it. I heard him. MSNBC. It was in the height of the vote skewing one way and then another. He said "WE REPUBLICANS"
