What a scared fox may look like

What else have they been lying about?

In the immortal words of Herr Cheney:

So?

That. Unfortunately.

Can anyone sum it up for me? Clicking Huffpost is disgusting.

If your "journalists" are too scared to report and just hide in the hotel rooms shiatting their pants, they can't be human shields.

So they have that going for them...

Besides, they don't really need to gather any facts, since they simply make them up.

"Journalists"?

Sooo, he got busted being used as a human shield and is now mad about it?

So, you're saying FoxNews journalists are as reliable as Kaddafi's mercenaries?

Can he actually articulate why it was so important to go on a tour of Qaddaffi's palace or is he just going to keep screaming and throwing out accusations? If you hate Fox, fine, hate Fox, but there is a legitimate argument to be made that the Libyans are scheduling these tours to keep from being bombed whether Jennifer Griffin said it or not. What did he learn that he couldn't have by not going on the tour? Maybe there's a reason you don't see the Fox reporter there. He might know something you don't.

The fact that he admits he believes "government officials" from Libya just makes his credibility as a journalist look paper-thin. Did he believe everything Baghdad Bob told him too? Because he was a "government official?"

So much FAIL in one post.

He claims Fox did send someone on the tour, so that invalidates your "point" about not participating in the OMGWTFHUMANSHIELD.

He didn't say he believed government officials from Libya. He explicitly called them liars.

Anything else you want to make up?

This just in: Fox News makes accurate statement about how reporter from CNN was used wittingly or unwittingly by Libya, and liberals whine about it.

As usual.

For those who no longer wish to click on a Huffington Post link:

CNN (new window)

as someone who spent drunken nights with a woman who went to the Columbia School of Journalism, i'd be getting a kick out of it if i didn't know the drastic failure of modern journalism

/dammit, i never remember to stick to the script.
//i'm amazed they even let me attempt to use memes

So ... were journalists used as human shields or not?

This. Why can't the rest of you libterds just stand up and congratulate the crack Fox reporter for sniffing out the nefarious human shield plot that the 40 other professional journalists on the tour completely missed?

You Cant Explain That: mahuika: The sad thing is that none of this even matters anymore. Any audience that Fox can lose, they have lost..

^ This

Seconded.

How does that invalidate my point? They sent a non-editorial employee who WASN'T working on a story. Their credibility is a million times more intact than CNN's is. You don't know how a news network works, obviously.

shower_in_my_socks: jyoders19: Maybe there's a reason you don't see the Fox reporter there.


There WAS someone from Fox there, you dumbshiat. That's the whole point of TFA.

Robertson: "(Fox) sent a member of their team. He was non-editorial. He was non-technical - not normally a cameraman. He was given a camera by the team and told to come out and come on the bus with the 40 other journalists who were there..."

You have a non-editorial employee who DIDN'T file a story, then? You have nothing.

Irregardless: So ... were journalists used as human shields or not?

That's a big 10-4.

I'm an American. Yes I do. Especially if I'm watching Fox News. If you don't think that the news network is legitimate... you might as well be a terrorist, as Fox News dictates.

/their viewers took the term "n*gger" back from the merriam-webster dictionary, and incorporated it to mean 'tea party', their own, by strict definition
//how could you hate on that?!

Again, I ask where's his story from the very important tour? What did he learn? Was Baghdad Bob there giving him the straight poop from very important government officials that he thinks Fox should talk to?

CorporatePerson: Can anyone sum it up for me? Clicking Huffpost is disgusting.

A useful idiot was upset and had a hissy fit on some never-watched cable show.

log_jammin: jyoders19: They sent a non-editorial employee who WASN'T working on a story.

so they only become a human shield if they are an editorial reporter working on a story??

jyoders19: Their credibility

bwahahahahaha!!!!!
No, I think when they knew everyone else was going anyway they sent somebody who wasn't a reporter to be there with a camera to document that it was a waste of time and energy. People do this ALL the time with TV news. They take a stand by not sending their own talent and then send a "gotcha" camera to tape everyone else getting played.

You can scream FAIL and hook like a wild moonbat all you want, but that's standard operation procedure in TV news.

CNN's mad they got played. His rant confirms it.

Do you think the British commanders are lying? You believe the Libyans but not the Brits? Really?

British sources confirmed that seven Storm Shadow missiles were ready to be fired from a British aircraft, but the strikes had to be curtailed due to crews from CNN, Reuters and other organizations nearby.

p.s. It's awesome that Tommy Arishikage has his own missile now.

cameroncrazy1984: log_jammin: so they only become a human shield if they are an editorial reporter working on a story??

You'll notice that the only "human shield" accusation was from the only non-reporter in the entire group. Kind of makes you wonder about it, doesn't it?

Wrong, the "human shield" accusation was Jennifer Griffin, who very much IS a reporter and got the confirmation from the Brits that they had a missile strike planned. The non-editorial guy on the bus didn't do anything but confirm that the others were there. That was his whole job. See who sent their talent to the human shield beat.

Drew, you have let this tab turn into crap, seriously

As you can see here she's sticking by her report: http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/jennifer-griffin-sticking-by-report-on-journ alists-being-used-as-human-shields-in-libya_b58495

She says she didn't know they sent a security guard with a camera but that really doesn't change one thing about her reporting of what the Brits told her.

Tell me, if you were to write, say, a social history of Nazi Germany, would you rule out using "Triumph des Willens" as a primary source because it was just government propaganda?
