The headline: "WH Admits: We 'Control' News Media"
The "article" (picked up from WND):
President Obama's presidential campaign focused on "making" the news media cover certain issues while rarely communicating anything to the press unless it was "controlled," White House Communications Director Anita Dunn disclosed to the Dominican government at a videotaped conference.
"Very rarely did we communicate through the press anything that we didn't absolutely control," said Dunn READ MORE
And it's that "READ MORE" where Faux proves it has no respect for its readers. Because when you click "READ MORE", you're sent to the original article at WND which finally admits -- below the fold of course -- that Dunn was speaking on January 12 about how the Obama team communicated DURING HIS PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.

This is just the most recent example I see of their standard operating procedure which has been called to your attention myriad times on this forum.
So Faux viewers and readers... and WND fans... do you really like being LIED TO like this... being so blatantly disrespected?
I'd imagine they don't care if it's the truth or not, as long as it makes the Obama administration, progressives, or Democrats look bad. It's all about advertising dollars really. For every story like this hundreds of Fox News fanboys post comments on the website, which generates more money for Murdoch. A great business model, even if it ignores the most basic journalism ethics.
Instead of debating ethics, the fanboys would rather brag about F.N. high ratings. As if they get money from News Corp for their network's success.

Nothing to do with the present day or present circumstances. EVERYTHING to do with Faux et al. advancing their game that they're being attacked by the WH.

How is it a lie if you click the READ MORE link and the information is there? Do you get your kicks out of lying yourself?

Yep. Fox is laughing all the way to the bank that some very naive people are gullible enough to fall for their "fair and balanced" act.

Well, dont read the OP or anything.
(The headline lies; the first paragraphs mislead; the fact is tossed in at the bottom of a linked page on another website; Faux readers -- as Faux proves time and again -- arent the type to read an entire article.)
Does Rahm call you directly with the days talking points?
