President Obama left for his ten day trip to India and other parts of Asia, hoping to expand trade and boost the countries' economic ties. But the right has falsely made the claim that Obama is spending 200 million dollars a day on the trip, and that the Navy is deploying thirty-four war ships off the coast of India for his protection. What these right wingers don't know is, just because something is online, it doesn't make it fact!

1. Same thing with TV.
No way to know what is manufactured and real news. Hence why I don't use news sources or internet for information.

I figure things mostly get reversed around. Hence also why I don't think a post being read is what is important also.

2. Haven't you heard?
He's taking the entire Navy and Air Force with him. He's sailing on the Queen Mary and has an entourage of 200k people. Michelle is bringing every student in the D.C. School system as a 'field outing.' It's true I swear - I heard it on Fox News with my own eyes. :sarcasm:


:rofl:

12. I heard
Obama is going to purchase the entire continent of Europe, has talks in purchasing the ROCK OF GIBRALTAR. Obama has set up a coalition of the willing, those nations willing to send their Naval Fleets, to protect the President and his entourage, for a price of course.

Sources have confirmed, the Obama White House has booked the entire city, the native population has been recently evacuated. Obama will be accompanied by 2,000 + people including the Broncos Football team (They are playing like shit anyway, they won't be missed...troop 279 of the Cub Scouts will be taking their place)

Of course all this information about the security of the President's trip is classified, but Fox News has the exclusive inside information, and has decided to report this even though it could endanger the entire operation, they took the chance no self respecting Terrorist would be caught dead watching Fox News.

6. People on cable news needs to push the point
Edited on Fri Nov-05-10 08:47 PM by AsahinaKimi
That Fox is a political HATE MACHINE. They bear no responsibility for the outcome of their hate, and will not be happy until someone or many people are dead. I wish someone would pull their electric plug and vow not to give them any more power.

7. OutFoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War On Journalism
OutFoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War On Journalism

"Outfoxed" examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch's Fox News, have been running a "race to the bottom" in television news. This film provides an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public's right to know.

The film explores Murdoch's burgeoning kingdom and the impact on society when a broad swath of media is controlled by one person.

Media experts, including Jeff Cohen (FAIR) Bob McChesney (Free Press), Chellie Pingree (Common Cause), Jeff Chester (Center for Digital Democracy) and David Brock (Media Matters) provide context and guidance for the story of Fox News and its effect on society.

This documentary also reveals the secrets of Former Fox news producers, reporters, bookers and writers who expose what it's like to work for Fox News. These former Fox employees talk about how they were forced to push a "right-wing" point of view or risk their jobs. Some have even chosen to remain anonymous in order to protect their current livelihoods. As one employee said "There's no sense of integrity as far as having a line that can't be crossed."

11. The Big Lie in popular culture Mein Kampf in the new Millennium


Mein Kampf,


for a lie so "colossal" that no one would believe that someone "could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Lie

Beck, Rush and many on Fox News use this constantly mostly on Radio, it dose more damage because listeners will never read or see the truth, It to get you to hate someone or party It is a offensive move, leaving someone else to debunk the story, but usually the damage is already done, that’s the object.

This is a huge reason why Republicans did so well, The Hate factor using 24/7 Propaganda started with in 24 hours after elections.
