This video goes to show how little vetting Fox News does on the people they interview. Fox News will put anyone on as long as that person is willing to spew out whatever propaganda Fox News is serving up.

Oh that was too funny, I only read it and hadn't had the chance to see the video yet. That was pretty funny and goes to show that Fox News simply casts the people they bring on the show rather showing real information. Fox News is a great example of a propaganda machine.

You know, I am certainly not a Romney supporter nor do I have even an inkling of love for Fox News. As a matter of fact, I think both are rather atrocious.

Still, this video "prank" is simply lame and disrespectful. It's a waste of time and money for all involved, it is not even slightly funny, nor does it convey any meaningful point. It is supremely dumb, though.

The interview was a bad business decision by Fox News. Perhaps Fox News should vet their interviewees more carefully instead of grabbing anyone who might be willing to spew their propaganda.

Fox was so eager to advance this meme that they didn't even bother to perform the basics of TV journalism - prep your guest. Know what they're going to say.

Stupid, stupid network. They got what they deserved.
Kind of like MSNBC getting duped SEVERAL times and airing FAKE stories?!
