Did Hannity And Bachmann Just Make Up Their Account Of Bachmann’s Health Care Protest?

Sean Hannity took time out from covering the shootings at Fort Hood to give some PR for Michele Bachmann’s tea party protest in Washington earlier yesterday (11/5/09). The two grossly exaggerated the crowd size, perpetuated a fiction that no astroturfing had occurred and left out any mentions of the extremist, anti-Obama signs, many of which had nothing to do with health care reform. With video.

Fox News Overlooks Prejean Sex Tape In Report About Her Legal Settlement

TMZ has this juicy nugget, posted November 4, 2009, 5:00 PM: Prejean Sex Tape Triggers Settlement.

The Glenn Beck Week That Was: The Slavery Edition

Guest blogged by Aunty Em

Fox News Wastes No Time Disparaging Obama's Nobel Peace Prize

Like most other Americans, I woke up to the news that President Obama had won the Nobel Peace Prize. Not so typically, I suspect, my first thought was to find out how Fox News was covering it. Surprise, surprise, surprise! They're doing their best to downplay the honor and/or outright demean it. I have yet to hear a word of congratulations or good cheer.
