Cavuto Lie "They were expecting 5,000 here, it's got to be easily double, if not triple that"
"They were expecting 5,000 here, it's got to be easily double, if not triple that"

This is the line that could end Cavuto's career, if the video from dailykos goes viral, before saying that, he was caught off air talking to his producer saying there is only about 5000 people there.

18. Knucke draggers are easy to find

“Drag a hundred dollars through a trailer park and you never know what you will find” were the words of former President Bill Clinton’s advisor James Carville

5. But when literal OCEANS of humanity protested at the RNC
Edited on Thu Apr-16-09 06:19 AM by Phoebe Loosinhouse
we only got a street webcam on CSPAN while the entire MSM showed tight shots of crowds and called multiple hundreds of thousands,"thousands" and would have called it less if they thought they could get away with it. (I am speaking of the war protests before Bush's second illgotten term)

It's good to see the agendas and biases so clearly laid out in the open, so that no one can mistake any of these weasels, Fox and Cavuto in particular, as (ha!ha!) "journalists". They are "publicists" for the last vestiages of the tired sorry old droopy Republican cabal.

11. And the Guinness Book of Records cites
the global antiwar demonstrations of February 15, 2003 as the largest protest in human history.
Fox (and other corporate media) didn't cover that one either.

6. RePUKE math...
Five thousand teabaggers come to rally against President Obama lowering their taxes: "there's got to be double, maybe triple that."

A million people come to rally against pResident Bush invading a sovereign nation: "thousands of anti-American traitors..."

8. That's a pre-written line and Fox doesn't care about accuracy
If they had any journalistic integrity at all, they wouldn't have been a pep-squad for these right-wing stoooopid parties.

This whole episode should be the end of Faux, but we all know that it was never about the "news" anyway. :eyes:

9. I had to listen to it twice to be sure but Keith did actually say,
Edited on Thu Apr-16-09 07:27 AM by lazyriver
"...a vas deferens..." when referring to the teabag turnout vs. the peace rallies at the end of the clip.

He's good...really good. I wouldn't be surprised if he, Rachel and Schuster have a quiet side bet going on for most double entendres and sneaky teabag references per show.

10. But when MSM makes a mistake, they instantly call for termination...
Any reporter caught (esp like this) simply making stuff up should be fired. Period.

12. A Court of Law has ruled Fox News does not have to be truthful.
I suspect a raise is in order for mister Cavuto.
