"Responsible journalism requires verification" So I assume Bobert verified his story before he ran "his" story about Fox editing the tape.

Or does Bobert hold others to a different standard than the one he sets for himself?

Ain't heard nothin from Bobert about whether he believes his own "fact" or not.

I guess the answer is no, he does not believe "Fox edited the speech to make it sound as if Ms. Sherrod was talkin' about recnt events" But he wants other people to believe it.

Is that what you call propaganda? Is that what Bobert would call a "BIG LIE"?

Propaganda is a form of communication that is aimed at influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position.

As opposed to impartially providing information, propaganda, in its most basic sense, presents information primarily to influence an audience. Propaganda often presents facts selectively (thus possibly lying by omission) to encourage a particular synthesis, or uses loaded messages to produce an emotional rather than rational response to the information presented. The desired result is a change of the attitude toward the subject in the target audience to further a political agenda. Propaganda can be used as a form of political warfare.

Perhaps you wished I'd said that Fox edited the tape, Sawz, but I never actually made that claim...

As fir the firin', unless the story has changed, Salazar had allready handled it (fired Sherrod) before Obama knew about the story??? No???

Now do any ot these constitute a "BIG LIE"??? Well, no they don't... These are just little side bar skirmishes... The "BIG LIE" is like Bonehead Boehner saying that thr stimilis hasn't created any jobs... I mean, that is a rediculuous statement... I mean, not even the flat earth economists are making that claim... But leave it to Bonehead to come up with total crock of mythology...

Bobert now claims he didn't claim what he claimed and is trying to shift the focus of the thread he started to something else.

Time for another show of hands.

Who believes Bobert did not claim that "Fox edited the speech to make it sound as if Ms. Sherrod was talkin' about recnt events"?

Well, well, well... Even a blind squirel finds an acorn now and then.... You are entirely correct, Sawz... I did falsely accuse FOX of doing the editing when the hatchet job was done by one of their buddies... They just aired it...

Congrates, Sawz... After all these years of being all these different people who are consistently wrong you finally got into the "win column"...

(Give the boy a peanut...)

Well Golllleeee. Bobert is finally taking responsibility for what he says.

Good on ya Bobert. Now if you can kindly point out where I was wrong about something with some facts to back it up, I will gladly apologize.

I am not the type that has to be right all the time and I don't mind being corrected.

That would take up several days of typin' and a couple hundred pudder screens, Sawz... Unlike you, I have lots of real world things that I need to do rather than play those childish games...

You don't mind spending several days or even weeks posting things you refuse to back up with facts.

Is that a game or do you get paid?
