Jon Stewart makes one mistake, admits to it. Fox News goes crazy.

7. Fatal Wrong Versus Factual Wrong

How distractible the American population is is shown by whether most are taken in by the false comparison between apples and oranges.

Obviously, Jon Stewart's messing up on one fact check is not tantamount to the police messing up someone's life.

One is the "no harm, no foul" outcome of a factual error, while the other is the harmfully foul result of a dead body lying in a morgue.

And the number of dead bodies is mounting as a result of bigotry, racism, the use of excessive force without warrant and/or the failure of police departments around the country to weed out the bad cops, while "good" cops remain fatally silent.
