saw one this morning that said almost exactly the same thing except it said "MSM". If Fux was as powerful as you think, President Obama would never have been elected.

Murdoch isn't some sweet innocent little old man who's just trying to keep the public informed and entertained.

WE should sue to have their license revoked, and the rest of the corporate media who is paid by Koch to lie to US.

Don't we have any volunteer lawyers on DU, there are quite a few lawsuits we should be filing....

Truth in news bill:

1 if your show has "news" in the title or news in the network name then there's a truth standard (exception for title like "not necessarily the news&quot

2 any lies, non- facts, or other ridiculous labels spawned by RNC farce of reporting, must be corrected at least three times each day for three days. Including the same time as original lie. (and not all at 3am)

When faux spends more time correcting than reporting and when they prefeface everything with "I believe" or "in my opinion", MAYBE the sheep will catch on.
