Fox News censured
Fair and balanced Fox News was blasted by the British media watchdog group Ofcom over a broadcast in which anchor/douchebag John Gibson said the BBC had "felt entitled to lie and, when caught lying, felt entitled to defend its lying reporters and executives."
Gibson claimed BBC reporter Andrew Gilligan had "insisted on air that the Iraqi army was heroically repulsing an incompetent American military" and said the BBC had responded to complaints by Downing Street by insisting "its reporter had a right to lie - exaggerate - because, well, the BBC knew the war was wrong".
He finished his report by saying: "So the next time you hear the BBC bragging about how much superior the Brits are delivering the news rather than Americans who wear flags in their lapels, remember it was the Beeb caught lying."
How professional.

Fox News, defending its childish asswipe of an anchor, whined that the BBC had "continually bashed" US policy and ridiculed the "president", therefore Gibson's phrase "frothing-at-the-mouth anti-Americanism" was justified.
Ofcom, however, said Fox was full of shit, and John Gibson a lying, nutless whore.
