Anyone record Fox News in the evening on April 28th?
Edited on Sun May-08-11 02:28 AM by mrbscott19
There is someone who claims they saw the news that OBL was dead on the Fox News ticker on the evening of April 28th. They even made a twitter post about it at the time which proves the date is correct since you can't edit the date that you send a tweet. I was wondering if anyone here possibly records Fox News and could check tape to see if this in fact did happen? If so I don't know what it means but I am curious since according to the people in charge the raid wasn't even approved by Obama until the 29th. It's weird.

Thanks in advance.

1. Media Matters might know. They record.
Write to them & ask. I'm sure they'd be interested, especially to debunk it.

:hi:

#ubuntu4humanity retweeted it. the timestamp shows april 28th. but she did not retweet till May 2nd.(it's between two may 2 tweets)

don't understand the mechanics of Twitter. maybe somebody's clock was off..

5. my bad. you are right.
I was relying on somebody's word that the tweet went missing(404 error). should have checked myself.

One thing I did find was a Fox News April 28th *2009* bit on youtube that said Osama was dead. Apparently Musharraff claimed it that day.

8. Make jokes all you want
Someone tweeted on April 28th that Fox News stated OBL was dead. That is a fact and giving links to every conspiracy / X-files / whatever youtube videos does not make that any less of a fact. Did Fox actually air it? I have no idea that is what I am trying to find out but the tweet was made so either someone is mistaken or Fox News reported that OBL was dead a day before the raid was even supposedly approved by the President.

11. why are you mad? I didn't mean to mock you. It's Fox. One thing for sure is they aren't
helping Obama hide anything. So I really don't know what to make of it. I know you can't edit past tweets, so it seems legit.

13. Someone tweeted that they saw it.
That doesn't mean it happened.

As stated above, if the Fox news chyron stated such a thing on the 28, MMFA (or Crooks & Liars) would have surely caught it.

12. Fox also runs chyrons at the bottom that describes David Vitter as a Democrat.
The same text will inform that Obama is hiding in a cave and the wrong candidate won an election.
I'm not saying it didn't happen, but Fox has the worst copy editors in cable news. Anything can show up scrolling at the bottom of their screen, and it wouldn't surprise.



The real conspiracy is how these people find employment at all, let alone a high paying job in television.

14. Ain't it cute how these little playgrounds for tards pop up?
"Oh, blab!"

"I agree, and furthermore, blah!"

Go back to your pretend nirvana, slaves.

16. She has locked down her Twitter account
Can't see the tweet anymore. I saw it on there earlier today though.

This is weird for sure.
