Keep trying bots...
Tell that to the republican headed committee that fully exonerated the Obama administration on Benghazi.

It's August in NYC. All those working class heroes like O'Reilly and Hannity are at the their beach houses on Martha's Vineyard and the Hamptons. No news until Labor Day.

Could it be that Fox News did not care for this report just released?

on August 1 that the Republican-led House Intelligence Committee voted to declassify findings from its investigation into the 2012 attacks on U.S diplomatic facilities in Benghazi, and "concluded that there was no deliberate wrongdoing by the Obama administration in the 2012 attack,"

This is a tactic taught by Fox News: When caught with your pants down, deflect, deflect, ...deflect!

But not to worry, OP. Once Trey Gowdy's all new and improved!! Benghazi hearings begin in September, Fox will pretend the Republican-led Congressional committee's report doesn't exist, and will return to broadcasting their lies 24/7. And their gullible viewers will eat it up.

And why wouldn't they? The news of the report that exonerates the Administration will never reach them because Fox will not tell them about it. And if they don't hear it on Fox, it can't possibly be true.

Now what was it you were saying about cultists, Aero?
Do you have a problem with MSNBC's lies?

This is a tactic taught by liberal media... Always focus on the bias of conservative media.

There you go deflecting again instead of directly addressing why Fox News is not covering the findings of the republican led committee that exonerated the Obama administration of any wrong doing in regards to the Benghazi incident. Apparently you have nothing to say that would explain Fox New's omission of this.


If you want to discuss liberal media, open a thread about that. That is not a topic of this thread.

Drudge Report? You call that responsible journalism?

The problem is twofold: Media outlets like FOX reporting propaganda to stupid people.

That is the greatest ally Rupert Murdoch has going for him: The Dumbing Down of America

Americans are dumb, and he acts as a "force multiplier"

If MSNBC's "lies" were so numerous you could document pages of them, wouldn't some conservative website document them like Media Matters does to FOX?

There is a reason this aint happening: MSNBC does not lie. They might make mistakes from time to time, like all outlets do, but they don't outright lie like FOX does to the sheep who watch them.
