The Terror of Marriage Fraud

At least that's how the Justice Department sees it. It turns out that from 2001 to 2005 they included cases of immigration violations, marriage fraud, and drug trafficking as terror cases. In all only 2 of the 26 reports sent to Congress were correct.

Hmm, 2001 to 2005 you say? I'm trying to remember did anything happen in those 4 years? I seem to remember something, oh yeah there were a couple of elections where the GOP claimed to be the party that would keep America safe. Apparently they meant safe from mail-order brides.

Well that's what you get for not reading the fine print.

Even Rupert Isn't Pretending Fox News Is Fair Anymore

Maybe it was candor, maybe he's bored, maybe he just doesn't care anymore, but Rupert Murdoch admitted to what we all knew:

"Asked if his News Corp. managed to shape the agenda on the war in Iraq, Murdoch said: "No, I don't think so. We tried." Asked by Rose for further comment, he said: "We basically supported the Bush policy in the Middle East…but we have been very critical of his execution."

So there you have it, even the guy at the top of the pyramid at Fox says they don't accurately report the news. Who knew?
