(9,463 posts)We already knew, and it's long been established thusly here on DU, that fox news lies. Here's a discussion already taking place that mostly ignores how much MSNBC lies to us while dogging fox: http://www.democraticunderground.com/1014842558

So, who at MSNBC lies to us and who doesn't? I think most of us are capable of sussing out what is true and what is not, much like those who view no news at all. But MSNBC's status on this website is no more deserved than that of fox news, [font color="red"]unless the reasoning is that all the lying takes place with the righties on that network and none with the lefties. Come to think of it, that mourning schmo show sure does have a lot of lying in it.[/font] <--- Some have refused to acknowledge this in the thread, so I'm highlighting it so that everyone knows that, yes, rightwingers were driving up the % of lies. Duh.
ETA: Here is the link to the poll (I think, another poster brought it to my attention that it's from Nov. '11 so I don't know why AddictingInfo.com and PunditFact.com are even talking about it this week :shrug
from http://publicmind.fdu.edu/2011/knowless/ conducted at Fairleigh Dickinson University's PublicMind Poll. Anyways, we know that ALL the "news" networks lie to us. So, it's just a matter of degrees. [font color="red"]It's been brought to my attention this is NOT the correct link. Thanks to dpibel for using his/her 1000th post to clear it up for me.[/font]
