...........Fair and Balanced my ass.

And then to top it off...

The pièce de résistance, FoxNews, when transcribing Bill O'Reilly's cover up of a cover up...covers up for O'Reilly's slander.

When you're **that** wrong -- when you're defending Nazi War Criminals and pinning their crimes on Americans, and you get **caught** doing so -- **twice** -- you're supposed to say 'I'm sorry, I was wrong'... and then you should shut up for a long time. Instead, Fox **washed** its transcript of O'Reilly's remarks Tuesday -- its website claims O'Reilly said "In **Normandy**..." when in fact he said "In **Malmedy**..."



I'll let Olbermann's words then go to completion:........

1. Humility and asking forgiveness
makes one strong. No strength at faux news and oreilly is a mere weakling of a human being.

2. I wonder if the five Sullivan Brothers knew they gave their lives
to protect American War Criminals? O'Leily never sacrificed anything for this country and he has the nerve to denigrate all WWII soldiers, sailors and airmen. Just another repuke treating our dedicated military like low level employees.

3. How can anyone at that wretched news station claim to be fair and balanced
without being struck by lightning?

4. Oh, they changed the transcript again.
It now says "Malmedy."

They were SHAMED into changing it to reflect what was really said. That's what it took--being called on and SHAMED into it.
