FOX News Channel Statement on 'Outfoxed'

Fox News ^ | 7-12-04

Monday, July 12, 2004 Any news organization that thinks this story is legitimate is opening itself to having its copyrighted material taken out of context for partisan reasons. The illegal copyright infringement actions of Moveon.org in cooperation with the New York Times, including “cutting a deal” not to give FOX News Channel adequate time to react, is unprecedented. The New York Times corrupts the journalistic process by taking orders from a George Soros-funded web site – Soros is a left-wing billionaire currency speculator who funds many liberal efforts. This is the real story. If any news organizations decide to make this an anti-FOX News story, then all of their material becomes fodder immediately for possible out of context and biased documentaries. The former low-level FOX employees are hardly worth addressing. Some of the “sources” for this documentary never worked for FOX News Channel. Some left because of incompetence, and none expressed concern about editorial policy while employees. They represent fewer than 10 employees out of 2,000 over 8 years. Any news organization that believes this story is big and FOX News Channel is a problem will be challenged by FOX News Channel in the following manner: If they will put out 100 percent of their editorial directions and internal memos, FOX News Channel will publish 100 percent of our editorial directions and internal memos, and let the public decide who is fair. This includes any legitimate cable news network, broadcast network, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, and The Washington Post.

This is another attempt by the Liberal Media to extract propaganda and to control all exploits of abnormal functions in abnormal humans.

I really don't think FOX viewers will care what these kooks have to say. FOX is good. People like it. They'll simply keep watching anyway.
This tactic won't hurt FOX. It'll probably up their ratings if anything.

Fox lays it on the line! There will be NO takers.

bump for later....

The sad fact is, that far too many "Americans" are buying the BS being pitched by the left....

Our Government Schools, Teacher's Union, Leftist Educrates and the "media" have sufficiently dumbed down the population where we are doomed to repeat history --- because the silly bastards coming out of our schools haven't been taught history or an appreciation for the uniqueness of America...

Frankly - I don't see how the country could survive a Kerry/Edwards administration...

Semper Fi

A fish is unaware that it is surrounded by water, and the press is unaware of how far left it is...

We all know what happens when that fish is pulled out of the water, now don't we. He flips and he flops, he gasps and he chokes. Then he is still, the fight gone out of him. I think it's called "the death throws". Quite appropriate of the left, dontcha think?

I thought that idiot was still living?

Thanks for completing the analogy. And let's not forget how much that fish stinks when it is exposed to air and light.

This is how this all works:

The press deludes itself into thinking it is the 'mainstream', ala the center.

Fox News, being at the real center/balanced position is therefore 'right wing' because it is to the right of the 'mainstream', which any rational being would see as being on the left.

The old joke used to be call someone 'to the right of Ghengis Khan'. Now, though, the press is to the left of Nickolai Lenin.

Indeed it does.

There doesn't need to be. There's another way to dig up all those internal memos. It's called "the discovery process". Sue 'em, Fox! In fact, wouldn't it be delicious to see a class action suit against CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, the NY Times, LA Times, Wash. Post, Time and Newsweek for having an unfair consortium on news coverage, proving that they are not actually competitors at all but merely inbred propaganda organizations of the same ideology with the intent on limiting competition and monopolizing public opinion? Even if you lose the suit, the insider info would reveal all sorts of dirty laundry and incestuous relations.

Go fo it, Fox! We must defeat the evildoers!

This is just not going to go anywhere. It's ridiculous. I think its better if we all just realize how stupid the whole thing is and take the high road on this one.

Thanks for the ping!
