It's Whopper Time At FOX.

       Have you heard the news? The FOX News? Well, in Colorado, the governor signed into law the right for any voter to print out a paper ballot on their home printer and then "turn them over to collectors." Yes, right from the mouth of Megyn Kelly to heaven above. You know that if Megyn says it, it must be true. right? After all, she's a nice, young, attractive woman. How could she lie?
       Well as it turns out, the whole story is made up. Nobody can print out a ballot except military personnel who could do it long before this story got cooked up. Now Megyn could have checked her facts by calling any election supervisor or Secretary of State office and would have found out the story is untrue. But hey, where's the story in that? Almost immediately news sources in Colorado called out FOX News for this lack of truth. FOX News has not retracted the statement.
       Now what would make a newscaster make up such a story? Or if it was told to her, why would she not first check out the story to make sure it's true? Perhaps truth isn't all that important at FOX News. Or perhaps the truth is not important to Megyn Kelly. Or maybe she never learned how to verify a story. Let's face it, there is a certain amount of work involved in checking out a news story. You have to call somebody who should know if it's true. You know, like somebody involved in actually counting the votes or setting the rules.
       On the other hand, if the truth is only an inconvenience to getting out a gotcha moment, then why would you bother? It's sortta like telling somebody that the jet engines are shut off so it's okay to climb inside it to see how it works. I mean, wouldn't it be wise to check with the pilot first? Or maybe the ground crew? If you want people to trust you, shouldn't you first prove you're trustworthy? Well, apparently not at FOX News. They work on the principle that if you say a lie often enough, it becomes the truth. That's why FOX News viewers are so misinformed. In fact FOX News viewers are the least informed viewers in the country. That's not to say there aren't a lot of misinformed FOX viewers in America. Some folks prefer to hear lies, so long as they agree with those lies.
