Carter: Fox commentators have ‘deliberately distorted’ news – The Hill’s Blog Briefing Room.
Oh, I guess it was Fox that reported Saddam Hussein’s propaganda as straight news in order to keep a reporter in Baghdad- no wait, that was CNN, Jimmy Carter’s favorite cable news channel, which tries to “stay in the middle”. Well then, it must have been Fox News that broadcast a report on George W. Bush featuring “fake but accurate” forged documents- oops, sorry, that was CBS News’ 60 Minutes, starring their then-nightly news anchor Taliban Dan Rather. President Carter, with all due respect, Glenn Beck is a commentator, not an anchorman, just like Jon Stewart or Keith Olbermann. Oh, and I’m sorry to hear that you feel like you were treated badly by the media during your one term in office. You need to see it from their point of view-it had to hard for them to put a positive spin on gas lines, terrorist nations holding Americans hostage, 21% interest rates, and runaway inflation. Face it, Mr Carter, you really didn’t give the media very much to work with.
