Last night at approximately 7:30 p.m., Fox New's Carl Cameron was reporting on Mitt Romney's comments that "Nobody has asked to see my birth certificate".
Cameron stated "Romney said Barack Obama's birth certificate is authentic", when what Romney actually said was that he (Romney) believes Obama was born in Hawaii.
Cameron also stated: "Most people think President Obama's birth certificate is legitimate". While this statement may on the surface, be true, it is shameless disinformation. What does it matter what most people think on this issue? Most forensic experts who examine the document have stated there are some obvious flaws in the document that make it likely it was tampered with.
My question to fellow Freepers is this: why is Carl Cameron of Fox News assuming the role of Obama Administration propagandist? Does he feel the pressure from the Administration's FCC? This is blantant disinformation, and it is coming from Fair and Balanced Fox News! Why won't Fox News report the truth on this issue?
“Would these leanings explain why no one there is ALLOWED to discuss Obama’s eligibility to be president?”
Even Rush Limbaugh brought up the birther issue yesterday. He finally got brave enough to peek out from behind Romney’s skirt now that Romney and Ryan are taking it to the Kenyan.
Except for Hannity and Savage, most of these brave conservative icons like Rush, Coulter, and Beck wouldn’t touch the birther issue with a ten meter pole.
This is ZERO saying in his own words that he was born in Kenya.
...”Nothing will come of the accusations over his eligibility. He will NOT be removed from office because of it even if definitive proof is uncovered and published. The reason I believe this is I don’t think the Congress or the Courts have the courage to do the right thing even when it is so important it be done”...
I know you are exactly correct about this. It is just so hard for me to experience the trashing of our Constitution with barely a whimper from our Congress, our courts and the big microphones. Also, the double standard is so stark in the case of Obama, whom we really know very little about. My family will be going to see “Obama’s America” this weekend. Drudge says it is #1 at the box office now..We will see whether it makes any difference to people who seem not to understand that we are losing our country. I could never have imagined a time in my life when we would have a President who was not allowed to be vetted.
Fox is slightly left of center.

And, it is sort of like the “elephant in the room.” Almost everyone who is even slightly informed wants to know who Obama really is. Perhaps he is eligible..We just need to know. There have been so many lies and half-truths and very little history where classmates, girlfriends, boyfriends, friends or neighbors have come forth to endorse the fact that he is who he says and that he was where he claims to have been during certain periods of his life. I believe many Americans are very nervous about all that and rightly so.
Legislation needs to be passed requiring ALL candidates whose office can only be held by what is deemed a natural born citizen to produce irrefutable proof of said citizenship when they submit all the other paperwork necessary to declare themselves a candidate.
To date there is a requirement stating only such citizens can occupy the WH but no mechanism to require the candidate to provide proof of being a natural born citizen.
IIRC, the Saudis have a controlling interest in Fox?
Fox strikes me as “soft left,” meaning it is still to the Left, but not s much as the other networks. Still, Fox seems to take every opportunity to advance RINOs and to attack conservatives. They may have a few shows like Glenn Beck, but for the most part, their reporting and commentary has many of the same biases as the other networks.

It’s the only news outlet that I watch on TV but it appears based on a lot of post here that it’s not “right” enough.
They do, in my opinion at least provide two sides to arguments most of the time althought I’ll never agree with the liberal scum.
Hannity, Greta, O’Rielly are not news by any means it’s commentary. I won’t watch Sheppard Smith because he’s about as flaming as it gets. I like the Five but Bob Beckel is an idiot and his main addiction is leftist stupidity not drugs and alcohol.
Not sure what folks are looking for on TV news wise but outside of putting on your own personal news show that’s all about them and their own opinions all the time is an impossible task.
They’ve been threatened on this issue. Arpaio’s Cold Case Posse has corroborated that story.
I don’t believe it is an accident that Andrew Breitbart dropped dead on the day of Arpaio’s first presser about the eligibility issue, less than 5 hours after Breitbart had spoken with Arpaio and told him Arpaio’s info was good and that he was glad Arpaio was bringing it into the open.
I also don’t believe it was an accident that Rush Limbaugh received what he perceived as a bomb threat - including reference to 2 famous assassinations - on the same day.
Nor do I believe it is coincidence that all of the major media refused to report Arpaio’s actual evidence leading him to conclude that the long-form BC is a forgery, that Obama was referred to by Bill Ayers’ parents as a foreign student that they were helping, and that Obama’s draft registration is a forgery perpetrated by the Selective Service Administration itself.
Nor does it surprise me now, that even though HI registrar Alvin Onaka has actually confirmed through a legal document that Obama’s HI birth record is not legally valid, the media didn’t bother to even understand what Onaka actually said and so they reported the exact opposite.
The legal fact of what Onaka did doesn’t just go away though, and people will soon be made aware of that. Including the dinosaur media.
Even Fox News falls prey to the Progressive propaganda from the comrade democrats. Propaganda is insidious, as is disinformation. Communists were experts in both areas.
I didn’t know about the firing of Hume’s wife. You might have something there with Roger and Shepard. Something keeps that snotty RAT Shepard on the air. He makes too many egregious mistakes.
No.
You begin from the erroneous premise that Fox News is a conservative network that must put forward that which you consider to be conservative.
It is not
I myself don’t really trust Fox News. I was wondering why they quit letting people leave comments?
I don’t care about news that is “fair an balanced.” I care that news is “honest and accurate.”
I fear that in my lifetime that will never happen.
Fox Business News is still watchable, but Fox News isn’t.
