Bret Baier Lies Through his Teeth
Pew Research
While gun owners, unlike the public at large, oppose gun control measures such as banning assault-style weapons, a big majority of gun owners (85%) support making private gun sales and sales at gun shows subject to background checks. That matches the level of support among the general public for doing this.
It amazes me how those who support gun rights so often find it necessary to exaggerate or lie. If they had any kind of a decent argument they wouldn't have to do that.

Obama is Palling Around with Terrorists Again - According to Fox News Conservatives
Old video has been unearthed of South Korean star Psy, of “Gangnam Style” fame, performing some no-holds-barred protests against the American military eight and ten years ago. In 2004, Psy participated in a protest concert in Seoul where he joined others in singing a song (that he didn’t write) about killing U.S. soldiers. He has since apologized. But it turns out Psy is going to be one of many performers at a benefit tonight (to be aired later on TNT) where President Obama will be in attendance. And that’s all Fox needs to bring on a guest suggesting President Obama is palling around with a terrorist.

Fox News Booed by Occupy Wall Street
Looks like these protesters were well aware of the false and inaccurate characterization of them, including grossly inaccurate numbers, promoted by Fox Fraudcast and other Murdoch media propagandists. Geraldo Rivera claims he didn't leave with his tail between his legs, but clearly from this footage, he appears to be somewhat daunted by the chanting of the crowd and gives up and leaves as a result. The length of time that the chanting continued, and the number of people engaged in it argues for a remarkable level of energy and determination on the part of the protesters.
Had Fox been even remotely the fair and balanced media they claim in their motto, I believe that they would have given the reporters from those outlets a very different reception. It is a measure of right-wing hypocrisy and double standards and double dealing that Fox promoted the Tea Party group events as grass roots when they were not, and as peaceful despite evidence of a different intent reflected in their placards, while reviling the obviously peaceful Occupy Wall Street protesters.
This movement is NOT going away, it is far more genuinely grass roots and far larger than the tea party ever was at its largest point. If this continues, as it appears it will, it represents a new and important factor in the next election cycle. And it is going to be a factor that Fox News and the other propagandists on the right are not going to be able to spin easily.
and, a more comprehensive piece of coverage, from a somewhat different angle, of the same event.
Maybe Geraldo should go back to opening empty parts of basements associated with dead and gone gangsters. That moment back in the 80's was perhaps less embarrassing than this point in his career with the Wall Street protesters.

More Fox Propaganda
Faux Fraudcasting had to edit out the key part of Teamster President James Hoffa's speech to make it sound as if union members should "take these son of a bitches out" at a Labor Day rally. When you do that, you are not a news network, you are James O'Keefe and Andrew Breitbart type fakes.
Fox has to lie because the facts don't promote their point of view. I don't believe there are a lot of Tea Party Teamsters as is claimed. And the Tea Party isn't always all that peaceful.

The office of Republican Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey is claiming that Fox News chairman Roger Ailes is a confidential adviser whose interactions with the governor should remain secret under New Jersey's executive privilege.
