Notice Anything Wrong With This Fox News ObamaCare Picture?

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on March 31, 2014 · Flag

When it comes to the Affordable Care Act, Fox News is so desperate to make it a failure that it cooked up a chart showing that six million enrollees are about a third of the seven million that was the March 31 goal. When it comes to Fox News bias, a picture is worth a thousand words - or a couple million enrollees. UPDATED

Our friends at Media Matters caught this. Enough said!

The Fox “News” suits call it a “mistake.” We call it a lie.

This is the reason for their ratings. Everyone just seems to LOVE FICTION STORIES better.

The numbers are in. Over 7.1 million signed up for healthcare.

Pres. Obama wins, Fox “News” frauds lose.

Sandman2: It’s probably because Rove didn’t have anyone come up to him. Does anyone believe that old Turd Blossom would be walking down a public street, even in Texas? At least to the point that he’d let random strangers approach him? This is Texas we’re talking about—a state where it’s perfectly legal to carry a handgun into a bar.

Fux Noise caught in yet another lie. Time to dust off the Jabba the Ailes handbook: Blame a nameless, low-ranking intern and promise to never ever do this again (or at least until caught again).

Karl Rove was on one of the Fox shows yesterday saying that he was in Texas for a speech and while walking down the street he had people coming up to him saying how they lost their healthcare; it costs more; they can’t have their own Dr.; and their deductible’s are higher; etc…
My question is, if that’s true why doesn’t Rove let these Fox News people he’s speaking with know who these people are so they can put them on the air rather than the frauds they’ve been having on the air who are debunked shortly after their fraudulent performance art????
I’m sure there are some who are being charged more or have higher deductible’s than before. They likely have much better coverage, but at least bring them on instead of the frauds who want there 15 minutes on Fox News.

Just saw the update – a “mistake”, huh? Yeah, riiiiight. Give me a break. Well, at least they corrected it and thanks to the watchdog websites that called them out on it.

As one graphic artist to another (as in the scumbag FOX “news” graphic artist who knowingly created this bogus piece of crap to be used as news/fact), you’re a bleeping whore. Like the FOX “news” job openings for graphic artists always state, they are looking for people who can produce “visually compelling graphics to support daily editorial content” – even if it means purposely creating shameful, misleading graphs. Hope the pay is worth it because your credibility isn’t worth sh!t.

I just witnessed the first cracks in Obamacare beating on Faux this morning! Doocy and the Fox & Fiends crew were actually challenging Ted Cruz on some of his criticisms of Obamacare!!

I couldn’t friggin’ believe it!!!

What kind of chart will they show when the final numbers come in over the 7M target?
mj - the same one commented 2014-04-01 04:35:52 -0400 · Flag
Remember: this is geared to the Fox audience, the ones who

- thought the 25% (or fewer) that were loyal supporters of Dumbya at the end constituted a majority, and
- thought that Dumbya winning by a 5-4 SC count in 2000 (and by 2% in 2004) constituted a “mandate”

They still haven’t caught on to basic math.

AHAHAHAH! That’s an incredibly funny graphic. Thanks for posting it.

My impression from what I saw on both Fox News and Fox Biz tonight is that they’re pretty morose about it. Fox Biz spent half the 30 minutes I watched (Dobbs) obsessed with today’s Web site problems. Hannity spent his first segment revisiting — again - favorite highlights of the past- ie, “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor,” over and over and over again.

The face of desperation.
