FOX News STILL Misrepresenting Colorado Teacher Story
Reported by Ellen - March 7, 2006
"Real Journalism" FOX News continued to mischaracterize the walkout of students from Overland High School in Colorado. As I previously posted, the chyron at the bottom of the screen on last Thursday's Hannity & Colmes, STUDENTS WALK OUT OF SCHOOL AFTER TEACHER'S RANT, gave the misleading impression that the protest was due to the teacher's "rant," when in fact it was because of his suspension. After three days, FOX News still can't get the facts straight.
Last night (3/6/06) during the third discussion on this issue, the "real journalism" network once again left the viewers with the impression that the walkout was a protest of Bennish's comments when it put on the screen "BENNISH CRITIQUE OF BUSH TRIGGERED WALKOUT OF 150 STUDENTS."
Tell FOX News that "real journalism" means reporting the real truth.
