Why does FOX News banner list so many lies?
Just passed by the channel for FOX News and caught a glimpse of the banner running news events. Noticed that the banner said that Terik Aziz was "captured by US troops 20 months ago." In fact, Aziz turned himself in as did many other top Saddam officials. Didn't hang around long enough to hear how they were really spinning the Aziz story.

3. Maybe because they're not really a news channel but a
propaganda tool? I never watched it and just loked at their internet site once... which was enough :puke:

4. CNN, MSNBC, and the rest are not much better. Just slicker
FOX news is designed for the mouthbreathers of our society. CNN, and MSNBC, are about one notch higher, which ain't saying too much.

6. ...anyone that knows anything about the Peterson, Jackson or
Blake case probably watches a hell of lot of these whore networks, and very little if any Bill Moyers or PBS. BTW Bill Moyers did his last program last Friday.
