Boo hoo. They point out methodically and factually, using references and transcripts, that one of your favorite news sources lies openly to you and the american public just about every day, and all you have to cry about are a left-on microphone and a typo where two similar names were mixed up? Grow up a little man...
Anyone can refute anything when they cherry pick the information chosen for rebuttal.
Our whole media system is dishonest and show the viewpoint THEY want you to see and not what really happened.
CBS had a commercial about how "More people are watching Katie Couric." But that is impossible because her ratings are abismal. But they probably had a report that said she beat the market in the 2-3 year old segment and they are using that as the cherry picked facts to back up that claim. To the everyday sheeple that does not make a difference bacause all they hear is "More people are watching Katie Couric."
I use that as an example because it is one of the more dishonest ones I have seen recently.
