Hey, kids! Do you ever get tired of Fox News' crops? I don't mean the food they might be literally growing, in Glenn Beck's Doom Room, in preparation for Imminent Socialist Panic. I'm talking about the way they manipulate video to make it look like people are just straight up saying the opposite thing they actually said.
Fox News Caught Repeatedly Cropping, Manipulating Video

This is why they should not be treated as a legitimate news organization. The Administration should cancel their press credentials completely.

video 2, Obama and earmakers, talking about his pledge to cut earmarks, which he did not do, in fact just the oposite.

video 3, the cropping changes nothing, in fact one might say that cropping it saved Obama some embarassment, "shares my respect for the Constitution" was cut out, and considering how Obama has shown his lack of respect to date, they did Obama a favor.

p.s. as if Fox is the only one to crop videos, if you didnt crop a video, you'd be showing the whole news story.

In TV it's called "editing".

Fox is bad but the rest of the corporate conservative media all work for whatever supports their rightwing agenda, whether it be Viacom, Disney, GE, Time Warner, or News Corp.

Have you ever heard of editing?

They do it ALL the time in TV.

Yes they should. The government needs to take over the entire media, and decide who gets to report what the White House tells them to report.

It worked great for Stalin!
