"Tea Party" implodes & divides: buh-bye, racist Mark Williams

Andrew Breitbart's purpose is to blow the dog whistles. He excels at it. Fox News is pretty good at it, too.

The Southern Strategy and tax cuts - apparently, that's all the GOP can do.

But you can blow dog whistles perfectly well without dishonestly editing a tape like he did.

He's about as big a piece of scum as there is out there, so I don't know why I'm surprised, though.

That's what he does. He was involved in the Acorn scam, too.

You mean he showed the world that Acorn is a scam.

No, they paid for the silly looking fake pimp kid to go to office after office after office, until they got a tape they could edit the crap out of and make Acorn look bad.

It's known as a sting operation and Acorn was exposed. But you blame it on the people who shot the video and the editing. Ok, whatever you say Riot.

How do you explain all the voter fraud perpetrated by Acorn? I guess that's not their fault either. Acorn must be the victim. It's the people who exposed the voter fraud who are the bad ones.

Rupert: The "sting" pimp-whore kids only got one person at Acorn (after visiting office after office) to talk to them, and that person called the police on them.

The "voter fraud" perpetrated was a bunch of lazy people filling out Mickey Mouse on some voter cards. Did "Mickey Mouse" ever cast a vote? No. So was "voter fraud" done? No. Nothing more than a bunch of lazy people making up names.

Get the truth, Rup. Even Shep Smith tagged Faux News for what they are, on his show. Did you see this today?

Top Fox News correspondent Carl Cameron reportedly said he agrees that the channel supports the Tea Party.

The Daily Beast's Steve Friess reports that he witnessed a conversation between Daily Kos blogger Dante Atkins and Fox News chief political correspondent Carl Cameron at the Netroot Nations conference on Friday, during which Cameron said some people on the channel are boosting the Tea Party and have improperly hyped the Shirley Sherrod story.

Friess says that Atkins had just finished a segment on Fox News about the netroots, and was telling Cameron some of the things he had said on television:

"Cameron...nodded as Atkins repeated comments he made on camera that the Tea Party movement was largely organized by Fox News hosts like Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity.

'Tell me about it,' Cameron smirked.

As the conversation continued, Atkins...cited examples of Fox's undue sway over events. Cameron then offered one of his own.

'The Sherrod case is an example of some at Fox News trying to have more influence than it probably should,' Cameron said.

When confronted with his comments, Cameron told Friess that they had been taken out of context, and that he was defending the standards of the channel's news division. Atkins told Friess that the remarks were accurate and were not taken out of context.

In September, a Fox News producer was caught rallying the crowd at a 9/12 protest.

Are all media outlets "fair and balanced"? No. Hard to find a good investigative journalist nowadays. Is Faux News? Hell no.
