FOX News pissed me off so much, I had to....

I got so PO'd after reading the article about FOX lies today (http://mediamatters.org/blog/2012/09/11/today-in-dishonest-fox-news-graphics/189831) that I whipped up this graphic. "Meme" it on FB or share it otherwise, as you please... I figure this Doocy pinhead deserves as much exposure for this as possible.



Whattdya think?

Doocy didn't make the graphic that showed on the screen. He just read the script.

just because they "apologize" doesn't mean we have to stop pointing to their lies. It's not like this is the first time. and mysteriously their lies all go in the same direction. Quite a coincidence, eh?

it's when you compare the official number to the "real" number (two different reports) that you become a liar.

What else is new? They always distort the truth with their obviously political station. Not worthy of true journalism.
