I don't think it is too much for any news outlet, regardless of political persuastion or bent, to use current statements on policy, or identify the context of any statement, or that it is old and out of date...or wasn't even said at all for the purpose intended!

CNN. MSNBC, FOX, all of em.

This particular example from Fox seems to be a bit.....obvious. And deceptive.

(Don't I recall a couple 'o instances of producers for shows on some other networks --- such as CBS and that 60 Minutes thing --- being fired in the past?)

Now, I'm all for HONESTY when reporting the 'facts'... and all for folks taking RESPONSIBILITY for their actions (especially when an action is the purveying of an *obvious*, not even 'close', lie such as this one is).

Doesn't 'Faux News' even *remember* that that was a HIGHLY WATCHED QUOTE from the Fall campaign?

And that likely millions of Americans won't even need a prompt or reminder to recall it?

(There are LIES... and then there are just plain IDIOTIC and BLATANTLY OBVIOUS lies like this one. :-)
