A strike or a picket?

A local station reports......

Try and hold you water boy and be precise.

As ususal a waste of time with no benefit.

Just another Fox news article... Accuracy of facts not required nor checked. It's the Fox news mantra.

"Four legs, good! Two legs bad!
Four legs, good! Two legs bad!
Four legs, good! Two legs bad!"

ad infinitum


Here is some REAL "fair and balanced" reporting:

ALL the news networks have a slant and an agenda, NONE of them are objective and YOU are a tool of the establishment.

Take it to the rabid politics forum, AKA: "Non Aviation Chat."

This is the first time a local station has EVER gotten facts wrong. This is really something that NEVER happens, and is worthy of posting on the most prestigious of Broadcast News forums, FlightInfo.

By the way Flyer, when MYFox Memphis posts a correction, are you going to go "nya ,nya nya nya nya!" ?

Have they?

Another great story by Faux News

Oh jeez, its a local affiliate, not part of News Corp or the corporate Fox company. If it had been a local NBC or CBS, would there have been the same comments?

Local stations screw things up all the time in regards to aviation. It happens like clockwork

 

[jetflier]

That would send the message, fair and balanced. lol

 

[Jetjockey]

you mean fairly unbalanced.

Fox news haters are hilarious.

It is a most bizarre monomania with them, including bumper stickers and an odd form of Fox News Tourette's, where they blurt the same three or four phrases, often accompanied by a rapid twitching of the eye or lip.

No known cure, just handle them with kid gloves and try to keep them calm.

Does anybody remember the network footage broadcast after the San Diego 727/172 collision that showed the "cause" of this accident to be a "student" wearing one of the old long-billed baseball cap instrument hoods... backwards?

I really don't think that a mistake by a local Fox affiliate is nearly as nefarious as intentionally trying to make people think that the Fox New channel had something to do with this story.

Makes one look like a disingenuous hypocrite.

I also enjoyed how the mindless fools who jumped on this thread's misleading premise made themselves look even more so.

Keep it up, fellas! PT Barnum just HAD to be correct, didn't he?

Move on, pops.

I remember that broadcast. Although it has nothing to do with the red-blue wars of today, (the stirring of which seems to be the primary intent of his thread), that broadcast is quite relevant to the discussion of the stunning inaccuracy of aviation news reporting.
