Internal Fox Memos Telling Employees How to Spin
Reported by Melanie - July 17, 2004 -
Click here at MediaMatters.org to read memos sent to Fox staffers by Fox News executive John Moody instructing employees on how to "spin" the news of the day.
COMMENT: Fox News has no business including the word "news" in its name. In reality, it's a 24 hour televised talk show. News is the presentation of fact, presented in accordance with long-accepted journalistic standards. What goes on on Fox violates (and in some cases, tosses out the window entirely) those standards and makes Fox's use of the word "news" a farce. One of the reasons for this blog is to document that on a day to day basis.
