>> Fair and balanced comedy

AFAIK nobody has claimed Hannity is "fair and balanced". This same kind of nonsense occurs on every news channel, and you don't question the motives there.

Still, that is a sizable number of Americans exercising their right to free speech and assembly, and that warrants news coverage. But Sean Hannity and his team did more than cover the event. They not only inflated the number in attendance with their words, but actually used footage from a heavily-attended protest this summer to make this health care rally appear more popular. Hannity even pointed out that this was a huge crowd for a Thursday, when the protest footage they used was from a Saturday.

Unbelievable.......can you imagine how stupid Fox News viewers must be to fall for this sh*t?! Its no wonder that a consummate liar like inode thinks they are fair and balanced.
