MacCallum apologizes for Fox News "inadvertedly us[ing]" six-month old Biden clip

ROFL!! What a crock!!

Oops, we're soooo sorry! Yeah, we do this all the time to GOP politicians, too!! Riiiiiiight

"...oh, yeah, and we also unintentionally cropped the file footage and reported Biden's words to convey the exact opposite of his intended meaning." 

"When we get something wrong" implies that they made an unintended mistake. There's no way Fox did this by accident. You can't prepare an item about the Obama administration's March 2009 message and illustrate it with a cropped image from September 2008 unless you do it on purpose. That's two INTENTIONAL acts -- pulling an old clip AND editing it in a deceptive manner.

 

I wonder how many times they played manipulated clip and how many times they aired the apology?

 

 

Well, looks like we have ammo the next time Fox tries to attack Joe Biden for his gaffes.

Right-wing smear merchants!

Fox news seems to think that they'll suffer some sort of consequence for being known as lying shills.

They won't. They're part of the media and the media is only punished for insensitivity. They should have just ignored this, or better yet, repeated the lie a few dozen more times.

I love how they brag about correcting their errors. If that were really true, it would be the 24/7 Apologia Network.
