Journamalismatude

After sneakily splicing out 15 seconds from the middle of an ad critical of Satan's porcine handmaiden, Chris Wallace and Karl Rove just sit around playing with themselves, though Rove does call Chris a tool.

Wallace spliced out 15 seconds from the middle of the ad without disclosing or indicating that it had been edited. Wallace and Rove then went on to discuss the ad as if they had just played the full thing, even though some of the toughest criticism of Rove (including the firing of U.S. attorneys and the outing of a CIA agent) had been removed from the ad they aired.

[B]y treating it as if it were the full actual ad Wallace violated every journalistic principle that there is, which should serve as a reminder that nothing on Fox is real journalism. It’s all conservative propaganda.

Another example that these cheap whores continue to do whatever they please.

His father was a decent newsman, I guess Chris didn't get the good genes.
