Children being taught to praise Obama? Replacing Jesus with Obama in a song?

3. It's on Faux News, so it couldn't possibly be true.
Telling the truth would violate their journalistic principles.

4. Headline: "Outrage over 8 month old staged video from a New Jersey classroom"

It was done in February. During a black history month discussion in class.


...and was completely covered in the news at the time and the school apologized.




Why is it back now?


Because Fox has an agenda.

8. Posted shortly after your post
“Court Ruled That Media Can Legally Lie” - The Steve Wilson/Jane Akre case v. Fox

Florida Court of Appeals agreed with FOX News that there is no rule against falsifying the news

9. Just saw a teaser on MSNBC. They're going to cover this "story" today.
Edited on Thu Sep-24-09 01:05 PM by tridim
WTF? It's 7 months old.

Why did you post this today? Did you see it on some other site besides Faux? It's quite a coincidence that MSNBC is covering this 30 minutes after you posted it, 7 months after the fact.
