The key point to me is the media would bend to the orders of Mellman and Whouley rather than report what the the actual returns proved. It is obvious that Fox bought the spin too. After declaring Ohio they refused to give Bush one of the other sure victory states and declare Bush the victor.

Tator and Jane...I remember a comment Brit Hume said at around 2 am....that I thought as odd when he said and now it makes sense.

He said..."Fox would not be making any more calls for Bush until the picture became more clear.

Now the comment makes sense......Fox bowed to the DNC.

Someone on another thread just said something that rather enlightened me. He said that the purpose of skewed exit polls is to delay calls. If exit polls and actual results line up, calls are made early and confidently. When actual results are different than exit polls, there is no confidence in making the call.

I do find the media to blame in all of this, but I have to admit that the faulty exit polls, especially with numbers being fed from the Kerry campaign, gives them a bit of an excuse to delay their calls for Bush.

I have lost quite a bit of respect for the entire Fox organization. Trust once lost is hard to regain, and that is the position Fox finds themselves with me.

I am SO disappointed in Brit Hume. Apparently he hasn't the backbone I thought he had.

Tator is right. I believe nothing I read or hear without several independent verifications.

I think I will sell my Fox stock and buy something less corruptible. Maybe Halliburton....HA!
