Foley misidentified as (D-FL) on O'Reilly last night? (Vanity)

Posted on 10/05/2006 11:02:23 AM PDT by SlayerOfBunnies

I have a coworker that swears he saw on O'Reilly last night that Foley's name was mis-identified with a (D-FL) rather than an (R-FL). Did anyone else see this or hear anything about it?

Both Fox and AP have done this. Pretty funny

I don't think it was on O'Reilly but Fox had a graphic that had (D-Florida) behind his name.

It was changed quickly. I think a photo was on Drudge and there is one here on FR as well.

If Foley was smart that is what he would have done. Foley could have switched parties and then been a hero! The Democrats welcome pedophiles as representatives of their party.

Yes and the Daily Show pointed it out as well. Did not correct it, just pointed it out.

People usually assume a queer and not having republican high lighted means a democrat.

Yup, saw it. I figured the MSM would use it to slam FOX.

Someone at work mentioned that they also saw that on Fox Foley was identified as a (D). Maybe O'Reilly's program execs thought they were correcting Foley's mistake in party affiliation.

I saw it. I figured it might be a mistake, but you never know.

Would've raised the moral caliber of BOTH parties if Foley had switched from Republican to Democrat.

"Both Fox and AP have done this. Pretty funny."

For what it's worth, I see misspellings and mistakes on Fox's "ticker" all the time. Freakin' interns. ;-)
