If you were to look at USMB media section, it is filled with threads about how pundits
and news orgs "Lie" and get information wrong. The people posting these threads
usually assume that its only the "other side" that lies or distorts facts. The fact is ALL
OF THE MEDIA GETS IT WRONG FROM TIME TO TIME. Fox News, MSNBC, and CNN
get it wrong all the time and run stories that are not true.
For instance Maddow using fake quotes of Rush Limbaugh(CNN ran these quotes also)
Flashback: MSNBC?s Rachel Maddow Touted False Limbaugh Quote in June | NewsBusters.org
Or Sean Hannity about the 200 million $$$ a day trip of Obama
Hannity: "$200 million a day, 3,000 people, he needs the whole Taj Mahal hotel, why?"* | Media Matters for America
Or Keith Olbermann's constant barage on Fox news

Here's my point. THEY ALL GET FACTS WRONG!!!!! THEY ALSO GETS FACTS RIGHT!!!!!
Lets all stop playing this stupid "your guy lies more than my guy" game and lets prove their statements right or wrong whether its coming from the Right or the Left.
On a side note, I would like to point out that MSNBC CONSTANTLY accuses
Fox News of "lying" while at the same time doing the same thing themselves. They
can't go a single day with out tearing into Fox News like they are intentionally lying
about things. In my opinion they are on a whole different level of arrogance when
it comes to accusing news orgs of "lying" They get it wrong just as often as Fox.
