Fox Exec Admits: Idea of Obama as Socialist was Originally His ‘Mischievous Speculation’ and ‘Far Fetched’
In a recorded speech, Fox VP Bill Sammon admits that the whole schtick on Obama being a closet Socialist was just a bit of fun on his part, not believable at all, yet he instructed others on the Fox staff to run with it after he first tossed is out “mischievously.”
What’s more appalling is that he now justifies having done this by the fact that the public now believes it!
“He doesn’t regret repeatedly raising it on the air because, Sammon says, “it was a main point of discussion on all the channels, in all the media” — and by 2009 he was “astonished by how the needle had moved.”
So telling a lie is just fine if it becomes a “main point of discussion.” Well, that explains a whole lot.
