If you are like thousands of others, you have no doubt seen an iconic photo of Baltimore burning. The image began circulating throughout social media after a local Fox affiliate in Memphis, Tennessee apparently first ran it. Some other mainstream media outlets even shared the image, using it with headlines that said “Baltimore is Burning” and referenced a “purge”. The only problem is it wasn’t from Baltimore. That’s right, the image was taken from Venezuela, not Baltimore. But for those who accepted Fox’s rendition of the story uncritically, the image became burned into their minds as being a scene of devastation in Baltimore. On April 27th, local FOX13 claimed the photo of the fires burning everything except the golden arches at McDonalds was “Baltimore In Flames.” Reverb Nation notes that one viewer noticed the image and placed it right away. They thought the image looked familiar, and pointed out that the story on the CVS burning was not Baltimore at all. The Imgur user said: “Now I understand why people mock Fox news so much…” After racking up tens of thousands of views, Fox acknowledged the “error,” saying: “Our team didn’t fact check the picture the way we should have.” Just imagine if Fox hadn’t been called out on this? How many more stations would continue to run it as an actual image of Baltimore in flames? Just imagine how much else they are lying to us about!

More proof that the MSM (including FOX) are not to be trusted or believed. Yet posters here like Gatslime still believe the BS they print or air and scoff at news posted from alternative sites.
Two Videos of the Same Arrest in Baltimore Shows How MSM Does Not Give You the Whole Truth There is no such thing as “unbiased reporting.” No matter the outlet, bias is an unavoidable facet to journalism. Here at the Free Thought Project, we are completely open about our bias in being anti-war, anti-corruption, and against the war on drugs. Knowing that all journalism advocates an agenda, we can see that the MSM’s agenda happens to be one diametrically opposed to the principles of a free society as they perpetually cheerlead for the status-quo. War, brutality, and corporatism are all but ignored by the mainstream as covering these things could be damaging to the establishment. As MSM is part of the establishment, their agenda advocates for the preservation of that establishment. They would not want to shoot themselves in the foot by helping people to break free from their dependency upon the two-party corporatocracy that pretends to keep order in society.
This pic was from a small local Fox affiliate, not Fox News Channel. Apparently, it ran a few times elsewhere before they sorted out the error.

Okay, now I'm ashamed. I should try to keep my big blabbermouth shut more.
I enjoyed you erasing some of the YELLA... that comes from the conspiracy crew. Whats the worse that could happen from this? The population think that Shit was set on fire by animals... oh wait, it was. It's not like it's a picture of the exit wound of Kennedy that's been doctored.

Oh nooooo, not more conspiracy theories.
That was funny...
It was the drama queens at Fox Memphis who ran with this phony narrative. But don't let that stop you from developing your conspiracy theory of savages attacking the Golden Arches.
In order for an allegation of fraudulent misrepresentation to be sustained there must be an intent to deceive ... Did you… Well, did you…
Did you… Nope!
Click here for “news posted from alternative sites.” Which of the TOP 50 ARTICLES and EDITOR’S PICKS should I believe? Oh, looka here….you gonna love the first one, it’s right down yo alley:
Thanks, but I know that you didn't since you didn't post the article. I am still laughing about your Post #7.
Can't handle the truth. If that statement is addressed to me, then I must ask: What truth do you alleged I can’t handle?
"How I miss the bright lights of Guatemala City!"
Thank you for straightening out that which was no small point. IT. WAS. AN. AFFILIATE of FOX. NOT 'FOX NEWS.' Everyone should note that neither CNN or that other national Leftist-Dem propaganda outlet, MSNBC, have "affiliates." For more context, Uncle Walter, Dan Rather, Brian Williams, and Peter Jennings were ALL liars for CBS, NBC, and ABC respectively at the national news level.
And I find it perfectly understandable that dopey and ignorant Imgur users wouldn't know the difference between an affiliate news station and FOX NEWS at the national level. And anyway -- is it true that Baltimore was "in flames," or not (fanned by the Mayor?) Was there rioting, looting, widespread destruction? Or was that affiliate lying about THAT??
Your source: CounterCurrentNews is exactly that. The three stooges who think they're clever: Author: Jackson Marciana, Shante Wooten & M. Dav Yeah. It all become clearer NOW.
The traditional broadcast networks NBC, CBS, ABC, etc all have affiliates around the nation. FOX is no better than the rest. O'Reily, Hannity, etc are certainly no better than the others either. Alternative media is growing, these official establishment propaganda outlets are dying.
Exactly. Some of the posters here live by the motto... No time is a bad time to sell their snake oil.

Yes, and they all cary theere respective affiliations newtwork news broadcasts as well as the respective morning shows. The affilate Fox stations do not do that. The Fox affilaites have there own local news. They do not broadcast a national news show as does MNC, ABC and CBS affiliates. Need I need to remind the EVRY NBC affilaite aired this false NBC News edited story? "In a grotesque and apparently malicious act of misreporting, NBC, in multiple broadcasts, aired doctored, heavily edited versions of the 911 call, misleadingly moving around Zimmerman’s words like a Rubik’s Cube. The result gave a false impression of the tragic incident in which Zimmerman shot and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, and it exposed Zimmerman to the hatred, scorn and contempt of millions of viewers. Zimmerman is suing NBC and the network is fighting back. But the network’s actions, and its responses to complaints, indicate it willfully and knowingly damaged Zimmerman’s reputation."
потому что Бог хочет это тот путь
General rule of thumb for the MSM... if they're broadcasting, they're lying.
I find the discursive space on alternative media to be fragmented, nonresponsive and restrictive. Unreliable sources of information and agenda driven yellow journalism have become a plague to the alternative media in this postmodern generation. Furthermore, the alternative news sites are driven by sales where they have to go out and hustle for capital while Fox News has such an immensely large audience that advertising money comes to it. To get their money, the alternative media must promote theologically shaky authors’ book sales. Unfortunately, the owners and reporters of the alternative media sites tragically seldom come up with anything more solid that the endless speculations based on a schizophrenic attitude presenting a barrage of conspiracy theories which attracts a kook following. Conspiracies remain the mystical fairy tales that are believed only by those who are mentally unstable, with their black-and-white kind of thinking so typical of the authoritarian personality type.

The only reason reason you are glued to FOX network is because of the robust tits that the female announcers present. If you strip away the lipstick, the breasts and other sexual overtones by FOX News, they operate the same ol' way as all other broadcasters. It is just entertainment.
Well, you finally called something correctly....this one time. "Yes, that's correct. Fox News has been officially acknowledged to be entertainment." Source.
Hey, tater ... don't get all yukoned-upped about your apparent agreement with me. I don't give a damn about your history bullshitting to the publick about your perspective concerning "passwords."
Frankly, Bucky....I don't give a damn about your not giving a damn. You are such an insignificant person of no importance.
Did you rip that one-liner off from "Gone with the Wind" by Clark Gable?
Grandma, no he's not.
You: "The traditional broadcast networks NBC, CBS, ABC, etc all have affiliates around the nation." What part of "neither CNN or MSNBC have affiliates" didn't you understand? FOX is no better than the rest. Not happy with FOX but they are MILES more truthful than any of the other propaganda outlets; Mo make that light years more truthful. MSNBC is worst than Pravda back in the old Soviet days, and their cast of Leftist lunatics (Maddow/Sharpton/Farrow) would make Goebbels blush. CNN used to be renown as the "Clinton News Network." HELLO. Alternative media is growing, these official establishment propaganda outlets are dying. Yes, that's a good thing -- though social media and Yahoo are even just as bad as MSNBC. But back to Tee-Bee "News": FOX NEWS remains the one and only Tee-bee outlet that reports news with any sense of honesty and truth. Or are you also going to deny that obvious fact?
I understand the frustration of some of these posters, but there are HUGE differences in the truth quotient on Tee-Bee. Even if FOX NEWS reports 25% of THE truth, it's still 25% MORE truth than either MSNBC or CNN. COMBINED. So why flame FOX News??
Clark Gable said: "Frankly, Bucky....I don't give a damn about your not giving a damn?" Nah...
Yes, and they all cary theere respective affiliations newtwork news broadcasts as well as the respective morning shows. The affilate Fox stations do not do that. The Fox affilaites have there own local news. They [FOX News] do not broadcast a national news show as does MNC, ABC and CBS affiliates. Exactly. How are these point not understood?? FOX News presents theme-programing and tries to balance guests and issues to some degree of non-bias; Do we see MSNBC do that? OR CNN? Of course not. The latter are too busy being one-sided propaganda outlets for the White Hut.
So in *your* mind Sean Hannity = Al Sharpton?
Hey -- just because FOX News hired babes with brains is no good reason to dismiss sane conversations and truth about the issues.
It's unlikely that Al voted for Willie-Mitt, so he's slightly ahead of that F'n retard Hannity. At least he's not responsible for encouraging any queer Republicans, to appear on future ballots.
...half the viewers would have no sex life at all.
Exactly

I find information to the contrary. For example, Fox News is for the 13th straight year the most watched cable news network. Its primetime ratings grew in 2014. Fox News is tremendously popular with a loyal audience, an audience which is unlikely to ever shift to other news networks. Moreover, Fox News remains the most trusted news network, this according to recent polling done by Quinnipiac University. Fox News was the only cable news network to see growth.in April. Alternative media is growing, these official establishment propaganda outlets are dying.
