If you think Fox doesn't do the same as other networks to keep their followers watching, you are definitely very naive.

The FACTS are that Qaddafi brought a bunch of news crews to the site of a missile strike in his compound, ( I'm sure with no ulterior motive... 8)), their by forcing British planes, that were in the air, to abort a strike on the compound because it would have endangered the reporters that had been brought there.  Not saying the reporters knew beforehand, but the were unwittingly used as human shields.  This was confirmed by the British Government, who was highly P.O. about it.

I could never figure it out.  These reporters know something bad is coming, and we hit what we aim at.  So as soon as the shooting starts, there is some idiot on camera, standing in front of, say a radar installation - "Well Joe, here I am at the missile radar station, waiting for something to happen.  There is heavy anti-aircraft fire lighting up the sky.  Wait, I see something"...Fade to black.  Call it natural selection..lol

All news reports are highly inaccurate. I can tell you from professional experience that first hand knowledge and news knowledge offer A LOT of latitude. Example: Two thugs in your home. One raping your wife, the other raping your daughter. Are they "misguided human beings" or are they problems that should be dealt with immediately without prejudice? Any news org will present it differently. A "spin" on journalism is just that, a "personal injection" of the reporter's view. Not facts as they happen. The news being caught in a lie is more of the news printing fiction to fill the holes without knowledge of the actual truth.

I guess I am thinking this guy may not have knowingly been a human shield. Too bad they didn't bomb it, woulda been funny to see the fade to black.
99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.

Sound like another liberal attack tactic take the reportings of an unreliable source to condem and accuse.

The CNN jerk can say whatever he wants. If his presance there created a human shield, then thats what he was with or without his knowledge. I'm sure many people have been used as sheilds unknowingly. In any case, its the pot calling the kettle black. CNN reports lies, half truths and lack of facts as a normal course of business all the time. Al the news pretty much sucks. Fox is just all alone and the rest of the liar news all band together and collectivly should louder than the lone Fox voice. bla bla bla.

From reading the article in the provided link, the CNN guy was ticked, calling FOX hypocritical because they had a reporter there too. But in the article Jenifer Griffin explained the mix up and apoligized, saying it was a mistake. SO, at worst it was a mistake. Not a lie. And it was corrected.
Quote;
While Griffin is sticking by her reporting, she acknowledged that Fox News correspondent Steve Harrigan sent a security guard with a camera on the government-organized trip. "I did not know about that earlier today," she said. "I became aware of that this evening. That was my mistake and I apologize for that."


And it's definitely not like they tell blatant lies on a daily basis like some of the others. But then, that's why such a big deal is made out of it if they think they can catch FOX in a lie. There is the real hypocricy.

It is completely understandable considering the circumstances and the players, (Gaddafi), that one could come to the conclusion that FOX did in this deal. And they may still be right! Gaddafi had just been bombed at the compound and before the Brits could hit him again, he invited reporters to come visit. Maybe for human shields, maybe not..................

This would have to be labeled an outright lie.  My wife and daughter would have emptied a round or two into any perp lurking in our house as self preservation and protection.  End of story.
