CNN HITS FOX NEWS RIGHT BETWEEN THEIR LYING EYES
FOX NEWS IS A FRAUD AND NEEDS TO BE INDICTED FOR MISREPRESENTATION AGAINST THE AMERICAN PUBLIC
by Johnny Punish, Staff Writer
Finally, CNN has defended it’s integrity against the most agregeous fraudulent media entity in the USA.
Fox News is under fire for a newspaper ad they purchased Friday that inaccurately accused its competitors, including CNN, of failing to cover last weekend’s Tea Party protests in Washington.
"How did, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, and CNN miss this story?" Fox’s newspaper ad asks.
The answer: They didn’t.
CNN provided live coverage of the rally in Washington on Saturday, dispatching more than a dozen personnel, including multiple camera crews and the CNN Express Bus, to cover the event. Deputy Political Director Paul Steinhauser was live at Freedom Plaza; Correspondent Kate Bolduan reported live from the Capitol and throughout the crowd;
All Platform Journalist Jim Spellman provided live hits all day after traveling for weeks on the Tea Party Express Bus; and CNN Correspondent Lisa Desjardins was live for CNN and CNN Radio from the National Mall.

CNN’s coverage also included numerous live reports and interviews with protesters and newsmakers, including rally day speaker Sen. Jim DeMint and activist Art Gerhart, who was on the set with anchor Don Lemon to discuss the event.
In addition, CNN.com provided a live stream of the rally throughout the day.
ABC referred Friday to a statement by Matt Kibbe, president of FreedomWorks — the group that organized the event – characterizing the network’s coverage that day as "fair and honest." The rally story was featured on the network’s morning shows, nightly news broadcast, in extensive radio reporting and online.
MSNBC also pointed to its own reporting. "Just like every other network mentioned in the ad, MSNBC covered last Saturday’s protest," the network said in a statement.
CBS detailed its coverage of the event in a statement issued Friday afternoon.
"CBS News had multiple crews on site with our Congressional Correspondent Nancy Cordes reporting," the network said in a statement. "It was the lead story on the CBS EVENING NEWS; CBS Radio News provided hourly reports during the day and CBSNews.com had the story in its rotating lead all day. They also processed the Nancy Cordes video and linked it throughout the site."
And CNN criticized Fox for its inaccurate statement. "Fox News’ ad released today is blatantly false regarding CNN’s coverage of the 9/12 rally," CNN said in a statement.
Clearly, the promoter for the Tea Parties, Fox News, is a fraud. They are a promotional channel for the GOP. They do NOT cover the News but promote the party line. Therefore, their use of the word "News" in their name is a fraud as is their "fair and balanced" tagline.
I encourage the leaders of CNN, ABC, CBS, and NBC to file a lawsuit against "Fox News" to have the word "News" removed from their name. Maybe they can call it the FOX GOP PARTY LINE CHANNEL THAT LIES AND DUPES THE AMERICAN PUBLIC.
And for their fellow fraudsters who make an sick attempt to to defend Fox News, you machevellian morons have the nerve to try to paint others as Hitler, Stalin, Communists, Socialists, or whatever……..PISS OFF! You’re sick in the head.
And don’t give me your standard "If you don’t like, change the channel" because I did that years ago. What I want and what the American public needs is for this FRAUDULENT fake news channel to be investigated, indicted and removed from the airwaves.
FOX NEWS is a direct threat to the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. It is an enemy to Freedom and Democracy. It needs to be stopped.

Not as many people as they said, not close, but they were a pack of ugly suckers.
I thought I was watching a Fellini film.
g
Being too young to know Fellini, I had to look it up. Found SATYRICON (1969) on YouTube.com [www.youtube.com]. LOL! LMAO! Man, I think Federico Fellini would resent your remark! His films are much more real that FOX NEWS TEA PARTY
Duff, I can’t determine if your are realy a dumb ass, or you just make stupid remarks to get a rise out of people. I myself often say thing just to see how people will react. I hate to think a fellow Marine is such an Idiot.
I see you and Barnes have found another asshole, what does punish have to do with veterans. I know what a poet and singer are, but what is an artiste.
IT ALL DEPENDS ON JUST WHAT PUSSIN IS “PUSHIN. Sounds like socalism to me. Or maybe Puish is TROLLIN, clearly the TRUTH and FACT are walking different paths between the lines and LINES of useful deception. After all who really needs to be independent ? Everyone gets old and dies. Socalism is a great engine which will generate cash flow. Encouraging the demise of the family unit. Dumping the responsibility of elders and children on Government. GOOD GOLLY A NEW COTTAGE INDUSTRY ! LETS START A RESTHOME/CHILD DAY CARE COMBO FRANCHISE CORPORATION, EVERYONE CAN BUY A HAPPY MEAL.
HEY; I GOT A CUPON. “SUPER SIZE MY SUBSITY” . OBAMA sure will. THANK YOU AND COME AGAIN ?
Good Story! Fox News is a fraud and if we ever re-establish the rule of law in our Country it would be nice to see them brought to justice. But I wouldn’t stop there, all the major media outlets are owned by about six Corporations. I don’t trust any of them though Fox is by far the worst of the bunch.
How about doing a story on Michael Powell, Army Veteran and former FCC chairman and what role he played in the deregulation of our media. I know he is the son of our former Sec. of state, Colin Powell. I always had a lot of respect for Gen. Powell but this smacks of nepotisim and government malfeasance.
How about ‘FOX NOISE channel” or the phrase “fairly unbalanced”……….. so we have some truth in advertising
Is that anything like “DEMOCRACH” ? Where the Secutary of State goes down or should I say Up on the DONKEY. HE HAW
to: A REPUBLIC CAN
Now there is a dumb assed remark……….. spoken like a true conservative …is base insults all you have ? try thinking above the waist line or even try thinking
I agree Fox News is not nearly as conservative as they should be. However all the other news networks and I use News faceciously, are dumping their manure on Fox to cover their own stink! The american masses, are dumb masses who set with their mouths open waiting for anyone that will drop a worm in like baby birds. The Dems in general and Obama in particular were up front telling everyone how they were going to screw us, now no one can understand why they are bent over holding their ankles and asked to smile.

Yep, I’m drinking the kool-aid you idiots are pouring out to the mindless masses who actually believe all the crap you write It’s funny, actually. You all bitch and whine about the Republicans and Fox News, yet you sit there typing lie after lie, hoping everyone believe you. A bit hypocritical, don’t you think? “Listen to us! Listen to us! We’re right! We’re right!” You all are actually good for my blood pressure. Every time I get on here, I laugh. My VA doctor (you know, one of the evil doers who deprive us of our treatment) actually encouraged me to keep reading!
Hey all you becker heads did he really rape and murder a girl in the 90′s? why hasn’t fox or beck addressed the rumor?
The Process Of A Right-Wing Lie
By: Steve – September 20, 2009 – 10:20am | Comment (0)
If you ever wondered how a right-wing lie gets started, then all the sudden every Republican in America is saying it, read this. I will use Glenn Beck in my example, but it could be any right-winger, O’Reilly, Hannity, Limbaugh, etc. Here is what Beck said last Friday.
BECK: You have what came out today, the outright lies coming out of the White House. I hate to call anybody a liar. It’s the cap and trade energy bill. We want to thank our friend Chris Horner at CEI for pointing this out to us. Chris, watchdog, thank you very much. This is a document behind me. This is something that the Department of the Treasury did for the White House and the government, so, you know, they could be informed. I want you to take a look at the date. It’s March 9th, 2009.
Look at the document, because in the document, it says “a cap and trade program could generate receipts on the order of $100 to $200 billion annually.” That’s $1,761 a year, per household, all of us. Okay. The Department of Treasury issues a report and says, “Here, Mr. President, boy, that looks like it is going to suck. It is going to cost $1,761.” Got it?
And now the truth: On Friday, Beck fanned himself with a giant $1,761 postage stamp, claiming he had uncovered “outright lies” by a spooky White House. According to Beck, “buried” Treasury documents reveal that President Obama’s clean energy agenda “is going to cost a lot of money.” He thanked his friend Chris Horner at CEI for revealing the facts about the cap and trade energy bill.
How did Glenn Beck end up waving a giant postage stamp, accusing the president of a cover-up. By following the same process that has been used to create other popular Glenn Beck conspiracy theories: that Carol Browner is a socialist, that millions of people marched in the Glenn Beck 9/12 rally, and that the EPA suppressed global warming skeptics.
Step 1: Lie gets started by right-wing think tank. On September 15, the Competitive Enterprise Institute’s Chris Horner begins shopping around two internal Treasury Department memos about cap-and-trade proposals, one written by the Bush administration in November 2008, one written in March 2009. CEI is a corporate-funded think tank that has opposed regulation of dioxin, cigarette smoking, global warming, prescription drugs, and alcohol.
Step 2: Right-wing print journalists write breaking news story. Chris Horner feeds the documents to Amanda Carpenter at the right-wing Washington Times (The very same Amanda Carpenter who is/was the Internet Cop for the O’Reilly Factor) and libertarian blogger Declan McCullagh. McCullagh does a blog post that says this: “Obama Admin: Cap And Trade Could Cost Families $1,761 A Year.”
Step 3: The lie is picked up by Drudge, then the lie is repeated endlessly on right-wing blogs, Twitter, and talk radio. Last Wednesday, the Drudge Report promoted McCullagh’s lie. The $1,761 figure is picked up by Politico’s Ben Smith, Hot Air, Townhall.com, RedState, and hordes of right-wing Tweeters.
Step 4: Republican politicians, right-wing think tanks, and polluter front groups release statements of shock and outrage. Despite the rapid response of the Treasury Department calling the story “flat out wrong” and “misrepresentations of the facts,” the House Republican Conference, Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN), Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-OK), the American Petroleum Institute, and the Heritage Foundation promote the lie.
Step 5: On Fox News, Glenn Beck and other Republicans in the media and the Government call President Obama a liar/socialist/Marxist/communist/fascist. On Thursday afternoon, after discussing the story on his radio show in the afternoon, Beck rails for nearly ten minutes about President Obama’s cover-up” and “outright lies.”
And now the facts: Last Thursday the Congressional Budget Office released a report that says the average household cost of the Waxman-Markey American Clean Energy and Security Act would be 44 cents per day, or $160.00 a year per family. And that’s not all, The revised analysis also determined that the least well off Americans would receive a greater net benefit than its previous projections.
“CBO estimates that households in the lowest income quintile in 2020 would see an average gain of about $125 per household.” By 2050, this net gain would increase to “$355 measured at 2010 income levels.”
A clean energy economy would enjoy massive growth, according the the CBO. The CBO projects that real (inflation-adjusted) GDP will be roughly two and a half times as large in 2050 as it is today.
Glenn Beck and the other right-wing liars are spinning a paranoid fantasy in which Democratic members of Congress are either puppets of — or conspirators with — an out-of-control, spooky President. In the real world, the Congressional Budget Office has repeatedly found that a clean energy future can be ours for less than the cost of a postage stamp a day.
And now you know how right-wing lies get put out, then repeated, and you also know the truth from the CBO, the truth they fail to mention, as they spin out their lies to make Obama look bad

In order to prove “ITS” agenda wrong, American must let this recipe get mixed and baked. Just as in many past presidential regimes. Then if “IT” tastes like SHIT, “We” the American Citizen are forced to “EAT SHIT” again and again, just as it has been in actions from the past. OBAMA and his associates have proven themselves to be liars and continue to lie. As a Group “WE” are feed up with eating SHIT. “WE” THE American Citizen are feed up and are not going to eat Government SHIT any longer. “WE” the American people suggest that Government EAT THEIR OWN SHIT. Congress has hungry eyes; maybe they are a few quarts low. Certainly OBAMA is full of SHIT.
Liberty you are the best! Maybe Obama needs some $5000.00 tiolet seats. clearly his SHIT is all over the place, and IT STINKS!
Fox is not perfect, sure. But the false statements being made about them are downright idiotic. They are far better than the Communist News Network, for sure. I remember my first tour in IZ, and we saw Fox around, but they weren’t bothering anybody or false-filming anything that we could tell, nor did we see any on tv. But CNN? We had a mission that went off perfectly, and right after we raced to see how fast it got reported. CNN was on it in less than 5 minutes, and made a bold-faced lie about what happened. Completely fabricated it. We about died laughing. Fox didn’t report on it. Nor do I believe there was any reason to. It was one of hundreds of missions that occurred that day.
I will never trust those leftist, commie, pinko faggots at CNN, even if they have the occasional eye-candy they claim is a News anchor.
