This is the same Gretchen Carlson who saved the war on Christmas last week. Yeah, she has a real bee in her bonnet, doesn't she? Well, it is Fox, after all. What would you expect, that they'd actually fact check a story?

This is the difference between a news network and a propaganda mill. The latter doesn't care about getting its facts straight. In fact, it will deliberately slant the news for political purposes. The truth is of no importance whatsoever, and certainly not compared to the political impact of a story.

Well, I suppose that an ethical propaganda mill might try to keep to the truth as much as possible. But remember, this is Fox.
