Fox news = false news

Ok, speaking as a person on the "right" side of the debate (on this site at least, you god-damned commies! ), Fox News is a fucking disgrace.If a channel over here ever pulled crap like that, all hell would break lose. I remember an incident a couple of years back where a channel in Belgium "jokingly" reported that the country had split in two over night (due to the political fighting that's always going on between the Dutch speaking and the French speaking side). The response was not a "hmm yes we should think about our situation", no, the reaction was "Fucking idiots, you're a news source, people trust you to report accurately, and not make shit up". I think the same should apply to Fox News, but apparently, a large enough part of the US does not care for the truth.
