They Won’t Apologize

Media Matters, the Hillary started, left wing media watch dog has launched into another attack on Fox News. This time over claims Fox doctored photos of some NY Times reporters. They and other sites going into hyper paranoia mode claimed it was Rupert Murdoch trying to get back at people he hates. etc. etc.

I swear, the degree to which some of these sites wax apocalyptic over Fox News is almost comical if it wasn’t so sad. I mean, all major news media is worthy of some kind of scorn. But to fixate on one network because it has a vaguely has a conservative bent, why they must be THE DEVIL!! I mean, wow, how dare they say something different than what they believe. They must be stopped at all costs!

Anyway, Release Notes is a blog by Peter Bickford and he has plenty of experience with desktop publishing. And he points out these “photohop efforts” by Fox have a completely innocent answer.

Of course the rock throwers, living in their glass houses, will be too busy looking for some other nit to pick to apologize for their mistake.
