THE FOX IS WRONG! (Obama version)

FOX’s objective is clear: carpet bomb Barack Obama with negative stories, distortions, and smears before the Pennsylvania primary in an attempt to skew the outcome toward the Republicans’ preferred adversary, Hillary Clinton. But did FOX imagine that the “liberal” media would be such willing accomplices?

Check out our latest episode of the gameshow sensation that’s sweeping the nation — THE FOX IS WRONG: OBAMA! Play along as FOX guests and personalities distort and misrepresent the statements of Obama and those around him, only to have that pesky “liberal” media pick up the smears and keep on running! For the finale, watch in wonder and amazement as ABC’s George Stephanopoulos allows Sean Hannity to actually spoon-feed him a question on Hannity’s radio show, then parrots it almost word-for-word a day later during ABC’s infamous Democratic debate in Pennsylvania!

For an added bonus, check out our last video to see what nine minutes of FOX on Obama looks like (don’t worry, the video is just 54 seconds). There you can get a small taste of FOX’s strategy to saturate their viewers with as many negative Obama stories as a cable line can carry — FOX spews more Obama smears in nine minutes than most networks deliver all day! And remember, this is just a summary of NINE MINUTES on FOX — there are 1,440 minutes every day…

Watch the videos, sign the petition, and fasten your seatbelts — we’ve got a crazy few months ahead, and the media won’t reform itself…

    This video tops the rest!! Great vid DJK....
  • javier
    you people are laughable, you twist and turn the truth to fit your pitiful liberal defeatis attitude....no wonder your not taken serious and you get no respect........you suck!!
  • Sean
    Wow! And hindsight says.......YOU in fact suck.

    But while we're being defeatist in the White House, oh and Arlen Specter gave us such little respect that he just switched parties; giving us a 'pitiful' clear 2/3 majority in the Senate. Chances are pretty good that what I just told you went so far over your head that it's making it's rounds on the ceiling fan (now I'm basing that solely on your RNC tag line filled post where you really said nothing at all). I hate to burst your bubble, but talk like your commment there is the embodiment of everything that hurts this country. The sheer volume of grammatical errors that end with a 'you get no respect....you suck!!' is downright comical. But thanks for taking the time to give us a run-on sentence of ignorance incarnate. Your caveman-esque writing style has brightened my day.

    Best of luck staring at the orange juice...
  • Harlan
    That's Hilarious!
    You made an old joke!

    Also, that's called an Ad Hominem attack.

    Insulting his grammar on the *Internet* will do absolutely nothing in the realm of proving him wrong.

    You singled out the grammar of his post and insulted that, Therefore, he is always wrong.

    Good job finding that connection!
  • Klizzy
    Lets just hope people like javier continue to post. They aren't helping themselves, or FOX by any means.
    Keep posting! its making my day!
  • My hope is that only die hard conservatives who would never vote for a Democrat anyway pay any attention to Fox News. I mean, it would be insane for anyone to think that Fox News is an actual news organization. They are clearly a GOP propaganda network.
  • Harlan
    All news networks are propaganda networks. FOX is the only Conservative propaganda network.
  • Klizzy
    NO, there are plenty of conservative slanted outlets that DO NOT spread flat out propaganda to my knowledge: NewsMax, Washington Times, Weekly Standard, National Review, Right WingNews, Federal Observer, GOPUSA, Free report.....and the list goes on.......

    There is a HUGE difference between biased news and outright propaganda. Biased news simply presents the idea or issue from a certain point of view. Propaganda relies on slander, wrong statement,s outright lies, and shock statements. I have yet to find a news outlet, liberal or conservative, that makes the same volume of outlandish, racist, blatantly wrong and ridiculous statements as FOX does. FOX is, in my opinion, the ONLY propaganda network.
  • beedogs
    javier, thanks for visiting. what color is the sky in the strange little world you come from? and are all the people who live there as stupid as you are?
  • Eric
    Your twisting these stories to fit your purposes is no different than FOX News reporting in the style that they do. CNN is 'objective', but to say that they do not have a liberal bias is laughable. Your treatment of the clips in this video make me question where objective news can actually be had, because it sure isn't here.
  • Klizzy
    ONCE again, there is a difference between a news outlet being biased, and it being a propaganda outlet.
    CNN is biased, but it isn't propaganda. FOX goes beyond bias- it flat out lies. Its not just presenting the stories from a conservative viewpoint, its making things up. There is a difference.
  • Marcus
    Why does Fox News hate America so much?!
  • Dan
    Great video. Go Obama. He's our only hope.
  • leia
    I don't think anyone takes this network seriously anyway. They're a joke, not only to democrats, but also to a growing number of disillusioned republicans.
  • Anonymous
    It seem to me you all are crying about how rough Obama had it on ABC Debate and On fox news where were you when all of the media and Fox news was attacking Hillary Clinton and where were you when they accused them of bringing race into the campaign when Jessie Jackson Jr said Hillary didn't shed any tears for the black people after Katrena after N H long before Bill Clinton mentioned his Father winning in S C ? I guess that was Ok but to question Obama is not .
  • RockDoctrine
    Come on now Eric. You know better than that. There was no narration over these clips. It's hard to 'twist' stories when you don't have some talking head to spin or 'twist' them. It's just clips run together that you can make your own judgement on. This video is a testament to the fact that the Mainstream Media does not have a liberal bias, but more of a conservative bias. The MM being liberal is one of those falsehoods that has become truth to the morons marinating in the right-wing echo chamber. CNN have a liberal bias... have you heard of Lou Dobbs? Did you see any opposition in the lead up to the Iraq war from that silver-haired beauty Anderson Cooper? Nice work Move-On!
  • Zoey
    Leia, actually they do lots do, if you only talk to people of your mind set or read their blogs you don't get the whole picture. my daughter paternal grandparents watch FOx news and Fox knows how to poke at their underlying fears and prejudices. and anonymous, ive been upset with the way Hillary was portrayed for a long time, i rooted for her. I myself still decry unfair treatment of her by anyone, but I think the media bias that she brought up and snl made fun of where exaggerated. Obama was getting lots of attention then because he was on top just like she got lots when she was on top. the media reports on winners and whoever they think will bring them the most ratings.

    Has anybody ever stop and think about how many hours of programming on FOX is fully devoted to the sensational news items like murders,kidnapings,abductions all with mostly blonde haired beautifull women covereing stories.To say FOX is a network for serious news reporting and discourse is as ludicrus as its claim to be Fair and Balanced.
  • s_charles
    Excellent! I never watch FOX, have now added ABC to that list along with my letter of complaint and have put MSNBC on notice for Russert's smear comments, and their pick up on FOX garbage.
    People don't have to support Sen. Obama but he has the right to be treated fairly and as Media Watch, FAIR and others have pointed out, contrary to claims the media is soft on him, he is being subjected to more personal attacks using 'guilt by association' than any other candidate.
    Enough!
    I think a lot of people are totally fed up with this garbage! The answer is to send a letter and change the channel.
  • Zanodad
    You have the dates wrong for the Wright controversy...You have it listed as 2007.

    Otherwise, very true sentiments. When I watch Fox (I have low blood pressure and do this to raise it) I have seen nothing but an attempt to tear this person down. This is the same will all "right" programming.

    It's a sad testiment that the only person to try to rise above the pathetic nature of our politics is ripped down in such a vicious way.
  • Darrell Kern
    I cannot stand the liar spin machine for douche tools otherwise known as FOX. But, hey- I can't stand Obama either! Also I can't stand Hillary or McCain.

    I am not about to get involved in a who's the lessor shit rally that our electoral process has turned into. And that is what it is.

    Anyone who votes in this election is dumber than a broken bottle of molasses.

    I say screw them- They are all alike- so let them select their grand "poobah" because they are going to do it anyway!

    Liberalism emphasizes individual rights - equal opportunity, freedom of thought & speech, rule of law, mixed economy & transparent system of government.

    If Nazis, Islamic Jihad and Republicans think it's Evil - Then being a liberal is the correct thing to be.

    I embrace all the things that truly define what a Liberal is. Not what the media defines a liberal as.

    I say anyone that doesn't embrace Liberalism in the truest sense of the definition is Un-American, Anti-Democratic, pro-totalitarianism, pro-fascism and is helping the terrorists to take away your liberties.

    Murdock owns media outlets which can communicate with 75% of the human race. He claims acts like a right-winger in the United States, but he is married to a Chinese woman and his home is in Beijin. He owns a television network in China which broadcasts Communist propaganda to his Chinese audience. Isn't that a flip flop worthy of note?
  • Fran Hulse
    Rupert Murdock has hijacked the American press.
    Fox News is just one of the outlets he uses to manipulate public opinion through lies masquerading as news. He IS the biggest threat to our democracy!!! We ALL have to do something now, before it's too late. One thing we can do is NOT WATCH Fox News or ABC.
  • Lester
    Although I currently live alone, I have set my parental block control on FOX several weeks ago. Now I hear Murdoch may buy Long Island's Newsday. If that happens, I predict an end to civilization by the year 2012.
