Fox News Calls This Journalism
This is the one of the most ridiculous pieces of so called journalism I have seen in a really long time. This is what the headline looked like on Fox News:

In case it's to small to read, the headline is as follows:
Report: Rev. Wright Has Affair With Another Man's Wife
Now go read the story it's talking about. Go ahead, I'll wait.

What the hell does this have to do with anything?????? Who cares! Plenty of other clergymen have affairs all the time and/or are controversial and it doesn't make this kind of news. My favorite is the racist sentence they tried to slip by everyone at the end. Is anyone else pissed off by this? I think it's offensive.

I agree with you on this one. This was a bit overboard.
But we on the right have been fighting the mainstream liberal media for years. You shouldnt get too worked up about it.
No one probably read it anyway. Rev. Wright is old news.
Please, please provide me with examples of "mainstream liberal media."
Are you serious?
Ok, here are a couple: Dan Rather's blatant lie on 60 minutes regarding Bush's military service.
The NYTimes spreading undocumented rumors about McCain having an affair with the lobbyist.
I mean, good god, just look at any of the headlines in the major newspapers almost every day.
Here is another:
Michael Isikoff, Newsweek (2005). False/unsubstantiated reporting. The Newsweek article claimed that a U.S. interrogator at a Guantanamo Bay had flushed a Koran down the toilet. “Anti-U.S. fanatics seized on the report to stir up riots that have left more than a dozen people dead in Pakistan and Afghanistan.” There is no evidence such a thing ever happened. [Wikipedia: Qur'an Desecration Controversy of 2005. Protestors riot and attack people, causing much destruction and murdering dozens of lives worldwide...
By the way, what's a "caster"?
