re: #3 Tigger2

Fox News is also taking a beating by some of the posters at Red State and Free Republic.

Because Fox News told them exactly what they wanted to hear, to keep them happy and watching Fox News. If Fox News had told the unvarnished truth (assuming it could), the base would go ballistic and accuse the network of selling out to the Obama Machine, or some such nonsense.

As the token liberal, Williams was allowed the tell the truth, just so the viewers could ridicule him for saying such “liberal nonsense.”

I’m hard pressed to say whether Fox News was aware Romney hadn’t a chance, and lied about it to the viewers, or if FN really is as clueless as it appears to be.
