    On Fox & Friends, co-host Brian Kilmeade claimed, along with an on-screen graphic, that a recent USA Today/Gallup poll found that "61 percent" of Americans are in favor of taking away collective bargaining rights from public unions. In fact, Fox aired the results of the poll completely backward: the Gallup poll found that 61 percent of Americans are opposed to taking away collective bargaining rights.

    People make mistakes. You want every claim and statistic on a 24 hour news channel checked for accuracy? Typical lib elitist journalistic standards.

    I could very well be wrong here, but I bet that 50 percent of Fox News viewership is liberal.


    Which would crack me up, cause they're soooooo mad at Fox, that they'll teach those mean Murdoch's by making them richer.


    Tell 'em Dan, you show America, one spurstalk.com post at a time, that you too can make a difference.

    By the way Dan, if I posted every single link I read on all liberal or conservative blogs...........my threads would get those views too.


    But by all means, keep thinking you are original......... is hilarious for most of us here.

    Who do I talk to about re-posting viral partisan bull for six figures? Do you and Yonivore work for the same firm? Do you get an email with links and talking points every day?

    Can I get a business card or something?

    I wonder how much Dan made for posting links to 'Loose Change 9/11' videos on spurstalk.com?


    I bet it was a pretty penny.

    Have you heard about "drudgereport.com"? They'll give you $4,000 per link that you post on spurstalk.com that generates some traffic to that poor site.


    I also heard that everytime you mention 9/11 conspiracy on spurstalk.com, an angel gets it's wings.

    Has anyone else noticed how NBADan and Yonivore never interact with one another? They're basically polar opposites ideologically but I can't remember them ever having a debate.

    I could be wrong, maybe it wasn't that memorable. Just saying.

    What do you think is funnier, an entire cable network fooling a bunch of hillbillies, or Dan thinking that his posts on SPURSTALK.com about political conspiracies is making a difference?


    To me, one is funny funny, while one is sad funny.


    I'll let you choose which is which.

    It's like Clark Kent/Superman..........only without any talent, they're not interesting, they don't draw much positive attention, you sort of hope both will go away, and they benefit no one.



    So I guess they're nothing like the man of steel.

    I have seen mistakes before when I used to watch Fox news. Rather than your implication, I always wondered if they had someone purposely sabotaging things when they had such silly mistakes.

    I personally think it's a waste of time to engage PropagandaDan.

    UPDATE: Kilmeade issued a correction during the final minute of Fox & Friends -- 44 minutes after the error -- saying: "I want to correct a poll that we did about 22 minutes ago from Gallup. Sixty-one percent oppose taking collective bargaining away from those people in Wisconsin; 33 percent in favor. I had it reversed. I apologize." In fact, the poll asked if people would oppose a similar law in their own states. A graphic was aired correctly showing that 61 percent of those polled oppose taking collective bargaining away
    They did take it back.

    Is there anyone here who thinks that this poll would have gotten a single second's worth of air time on Fox "News" if the producers hadn't mistakenly believed it showed that Americans favored the taking away of collective bargaining rights?
