Video: Fox News Altered Photos
If you haven't already seen it, check out this Media Matters video of Fox News trying hard to uglify some NYT staffers:
Not that dark circles, coffee teeth, and weird hair are particularly rare among flocks of journalists, but c'mon, even Bill Murray's fake factcheckers are truthier than those photos.
Really makes you trust Fox's coverage of the war, right?

Thats why F O X never ever gets a single second of time on my TV, Computer....etc;
If I am out and about and see F O X on somewhere, I leave the scene pronto.
Umm... it was a joke? Clearly.

Wrong, Guy, this is distortion and propaganda. Read: digitally altered photo. Kapish.

The head shots were cropped from the satirical mockup photo shown at the end of the video. It was a joke. Not that I'm a Fox fan. I'm not even American and I know that Fox is evil. I'm just saying... you know... whatever. It's good for Jon Stewart (who I LOVE) but not good enough for the bozos at Fox?

Don't forget that Jon Stewart's show is a comedy on a comedy channel.
These two knuckleheads pretend to be journalists on a so-called news channel.

Oh yea Evil Fox! But praise be to CBS and its fake documents trying to alter an election. Praise be to CNN and its failure to cover the Obama flip flops.

Awesome!!! If this was a liberal news show, like for instance CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN or MSNBC, nothing would have happened and it would have gone unnoticed. Fox News is the only news organization that puts a smiling face in front of the camera and delivers ALL the news without a LIBERAL slant!!!

Thank you, Media Matters... for exposing this atrocious journalistic slant. If not for your brilliant coverage of such things, what would those on the left have to talk about? Certainly not the paleomedia decades long distortion of the truth! My goodness… Photo Shopped big noses and bags under the eyes. Now that’s news!

Fox News is a business in a free market. If you've got a problem with it, don't watch it. I have a strong aversion to CNN, but instead of spending my time criticizing it, I simply don't watch it. This is a free country. As consumers, we are fortunate to have endless choices. It would clearly be a problem if Fox News was the only news source and subsidized by the government. Thankfully, our government values a free and open exchange of ideas, products and opinions.

It's funny when people give a pass to a NEWS organization for putting a SLANT or SPIN on what used to be information delivered without a mission. "just a man" and "jon91101" need to watch PBS news to see how it's actually supposed to be delivered. They'd get bored because it's missing the entertainment. EVERYONE also needs to see the 70's film "Network" about a news division and the take over of fox news type brass. It is totally current and prophetic of the issues we currently have today about this topic. Scary poingnent!!!
