But we’re Fox News! We lie…and we don’t care!!!
Talk about journalism ethics violations? How about Biblical ones: Psalm 1:1; Exodus 23:1-2; Prov. 22:12; Prov. 14:5; Eph. 4:9; Col. 3:9; 1 Tim. 4:2; Rev. 22:15 “…and whoever loves and makes a lie.”
And last…and worst…Psalm 6:16-19, where Bill O’Reilly/Sean Hannity/et.al. + Fox News are CONTINUALLY guilty of at least SIX of these 7 abominations: arrogance, lying, devising wicked plans, hasty to run to evil, bearing falsewitness, sowing discord.
Do other networks lie? Sometimes, but people get fired for it (Dan Rather, anyone?), apologies and retractions are made, etc. Fox is the ONLY network that lies without conscience, deliberately distorts the truth, mocks, ridicules, and scorns the defenseless AND at the same time operate under the pretense that they and only they are “fair and balanced” when they know this is not true. What is worse, and what makes what they do so dangerous, is their claim of some sort of moral high ground. O’Reilly, Hannity, and most of the rest of the air personalities profess some sort of allegiance to the God of the Bible, and yet continually violate His Word.
But liberals do it all the tiii-iime! If that’s true, LET THEM! Because if they’re going to be the standard by which conservatives measure their own integrity, then conservatives have doomed themselves to destruction.
