While watching Fox & Friends this morning to see what the Three Stooges of Morning TV were up to ( my apologies to Larry, Moe, and Curly ------ Shemp, you can pound sand ) I noticed that Steve Doocy was practically creaming his pants claiming that 4000 people showed up at a book store in Grand Rapids to meet Palin. More on that inflated number later. But when I signed on this morning to check email and get my day started, I noticed this little gem:
For those of you that don't recognize it, that's footage from the 2008 McCain/Palin campaign and NOT a crowd outside Barnes and Nobel.
Think Progress has more.
And this isn't the first time that the "Fair and Balanced" network has been caught with their proverbial pants down. From the complaints about other networks having access to the White House, to Sean Hannity's program using 9/12 footage to promote Bachman's paultry "House Call" rally, to a variety of claims by Beck, Fox"News" is certainly letting the mask slip quite a bit this year.
A Blog Version Of The Inside Of My Head. The place where politics, film, the media, music, pop culture, and random topics collide in an orgy of neo-philisophical randomness that would make your mother scream.

I think that Fox News think their viewers are so stupid that they can fool them all the time. They aren't even trying.
