Where does the email address go for folks that "sign" this petition launched by a group of interconnected "Progressive" websites that have yet to be honest and say they are interconnected with the wider community. Who is collecting this data? Why are they collecting it? What is the purpose?

Finally, hasn't the affiliate station apologized for the "faux" editing? Not to say that the faux editing should NOT HAVE BEEN DONE in the first place but what else can they do beside fire the editors that performed the "faux" editing.

How about a call for that ---- for the Producer or Editor of the "faux" video to be terminated?

Either way, I have yet to see where the White House should be involved here. Someone noted earlier the Fair Use Act. Ummm as a quasi Independent Media organization, the Fair Use Act was weaken during the Reagan Administration allowing companies that do "Entertainment News" like Faux News to exist. In other words, about 20+ years too late to save what was the Fair Use Act.....just saying.

So this petition has no point and those who sign it are sorry to say, a part of our blind non-critical thinking society that leads to companies in the business of "Entertainment News" like Faux News to exist.

Happy Monday.....
