Lying Conservative whine at being called liars



















Right-wing media claim Obama is criticizing Fox for "tough questions" and "reporting the truth"
Several right-wing media figures have claimed that the Obama administration is criticizing Fox News because the network asks "tough questions" and is "reporting the truth." This assertion is undermined by Fox News' extensive history of advancing falsehoods, repeatedly passing off GOP materials as news, doctoring quotes, and frequently engaging in outrageous attacks on President Obama, such as Glenn Beck's claim that he is a "racist" with a "deep-seated hatred for white people, or the white culture -- I don't know what it is."
How dare anyone question Fox's veracity and fairness seems to be the meme. Fox and its supporters think that Fox and other right-wing news outlets are some kind of holy grail not to be questioned. Fox News Anchor Yells At Democrat After "Fair & Balanced" Remark (VIDEO)
