I only know him as a “reporter” on Fox, don’t know anything else about him. I just figured he was a guy in front of the camera and never thought much else about him.

“How reliable is Carl Cameron?”

If I’m not mistaken, he was the first to report Fred was dropping out of the debate, and then of the race. I have no opinion of him, nor no knowledge of his reliability other than these recent events.

"Media watchdog groups claim that on a number of occasions Carl Cameron has fabricated statements by Democratic politicians, and that this was done to boost their Republican opponents. One claim cited by Media Matters for America was a claim that John Kerry labeled George W. Bush a "warmonger" who intended to create "perpetual war" around the world; Media Matters averred that no such instance of that criticism ever occurred. [7] In another instance, Cameron wrote a story posted on the Fox News website which included fabricated quotes from Kerry; the senator purportedly called himself a "metrosexual" and Bush a "cowboy" and spoke effeminately about a manicure. Official Fox News spokesman Paul Schur later said it was intended to be an internal joke not for publication, and the network apologized for the piece, but only on its website, and only through a tag on the article in which these quotes appeared. [8]" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Cameron

Carl sprung the report of W’s DUI way back when, just before the elections. Reliable? Never have forgiven him for that.
