luvguins 2012/06/30 22:49:23CNN deserves to get mocked for jumping the shark!
You must be drinking a lot of that tea with the 14 brainwashing techniques of the right-wing media seeped in it!
"Fox, meanwhile, said it had no regrets. “Our job is to share the news as we learn it,” said Michael Clemente, executive vice president of news-editorial at Fox. “As we were hearing it, and as we were reading it, we let our viewers know about it.” He added, “You don’t have to wait until the conclusion of the Yankees game to give the score.”"
This ain't a Yankees game Fox news morons!

Thank you for the guffaws, Keeping It Real!!!
mis·in·formed, mis·in·form·ing, mis·in·forms: To provide with incorrect information.
The first of the PIPA polls, the 2003 Misperceptions, the Media and the Iraq War poll, determined whether people believed the following to be true:
There were links between Saddam Hussein and 9/11
There were links between Saddam Hussein and al-Quaeda
There was evidence of weapons of mass destruction
There was evidence of chemical and biological weapons use
World public opinion was favorable regarding the war in Iraq
All of those claims were manifestly false, yet anyone who watched Fox during the run up to the war can verify that they were repeated endlessly on the network (though Fox certainly wasn’t the only outlet guilty of that sin). The PIPA study identified those who held one or more of these misperceptions, based on their primary news source:
Eighty percent of Fox viewers were likely to have one or more misperceptions.

Although many of the questions from the 2010 survey were less black-and-white, Fox viewers were still more likely to believe that:
Most scientists do not agree that climate change is occurring
The stimulus legislation did not include any tax cuts
The auto bailout only occurred under Obama
When TARP came up for a vote most Republicans opposed it
Now you might try to advance the argument that these were broadly held Republican beliefs at the time, and Fox can not be held responsible for the fact that conservatives embraced them. But as the 2003 PIPA study showed (graph above), Republicans who watched Fox were more likely to hold misperceptions than all Republicans, 54% to 43%. They were also more likely to hold misperceptions than Republicans who got their news from PBS-NPR, who had a rate of 32%.
Oh you got a pitty rave
Then folks wonder why we besmirch them so. Go figure.
