Faux News Is At It again....

From Scott P at Care2. : Seriously what is wrong with Fox, I mean, Faux News? I am consistently stunned at their ability to intentionally lie to the American people and yet play it off as an "honest mistake." As I am sure you cannot help but have heard—Mark Sanford, the REPUBLICAN, Governor of South Carolina is the most recent politician to admit to an extra-marital affair. Without going too deeply into the issue of Mark Sanford's affair itself i.e. politicians on both sides of the aisle have affairs (though it does only seem to be the men, eh?) but it is that much worse for the moralizing, family first, sanctity of marriage, promise keeping, legislate the bedroom behavior of others, invade my privacy, gays can't provide a stable home to adopted children Republicans to be caught having the affair because of the blatant hypocrisy. I would still like to think that a news station would have the moral clarity to not intentionally lie to the public by putting a nice big D for Democrat next to Mark Sanford's name now that he has done something naughty.
