These glaring misstatements (lies) were pointed out in the Fox newscast. I didn't watch the big three newscasts nor did I watch any of the other cable newscasts. But I would bet my life that this newsworthy occurrence was not covered on any of them.
That is why Fox is winning the ratings war. Btw Fox has now surpassed Katie Couric's CBS Evening Newscast at 7:30.
Funny they jumped on the Bush bandwagon and never "outed" HIS lies.

You bring up lies, interesting. Fox News has been busted many times for lying. They have also shown on a weekly basis that yellow journalism is still alive, unfortunately.

I agree...the only time it is worth ANYTHING at all is when a major catastrophic event is taking place that has zero to do with politics(it all turns political sooner or later)...such as Katrina or the 2004 Tsunami....other than that they are worthless.
