This is suppose to tell us something? Fox News also does not report a massive demonstration in Washington against extremist conservative opinions forced upon the majority. They fail to report it because the demonstration is contrary to Fox News purpose - to promote a political agenda. Therefore anything that Fox News does or does not show has significance? Of course not. Fox News was mentioned in a desperate attempt to post a reply.

Yes, Fox News has as much credibility as Pravada - another news service that had same purpose. What Fox News chooses to show or not show only represents political rhetoric; has nothing to do with credibile and responsbile news.

Maybe Fox News should take up the name Pravada - which means "truth" in Russian. That way, Fox News would be better understood. In the meantime, what Fox News does has no significance to this discusson - other than to say what their political leaders order everyone to believe.

Who has far more credibility? Fox News or Ted Koppel? The latter said George Jr will even put those flagged draped caskets in his Presidental campaign ads. Ted Koppel showed that ad. What does Fox News do? Avoid criticizing the president they exist to promote.
