<\/p>\nJust amazing. Fox’s O’Reilly Factor<\/i> just covered the Mark Foley (R<\/b>-FL) issue in two different segments, one of them with a page who says he received communications from Foley, and another with Ann Coulter.<\/p>\n
Never mind the content of either segment for now. Incredibly<\/i>, during a total of three different cutaways to video footage of Foley, he was labelled at the bottom of the screen eachtime as “(D<\/b>-FL)” !<\/p>\n
Three different times. In two different segements. Each cutaway about 15 seconds or more. Showing Foley as a DEMOCRAT<\/b>. Amazing.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Just an accident? We report, you decide.<\/p>\n
UPDATE:<\/b> Here’s quick video clips two of the three times that Foley became made an honorary Fox “Dem”…<\/p>\n
UPDATE 11:30pm PT:<\/b> Though we didn’t see the first evening rerun, several folks have reported that Fox “News” scrubbed the “error” by running the video during the late-night rerun of O’Reilly with no text on the bottom of the screen during those sequences. Also, please note we originally had the date of 6\/3\/06 on the screenshot above, instead of the correct 10\/3\/06. Once we noticed, we had so many folks linking up to this item, we couldn’t get back in to the site at all to make the correction until now!<\/p>\n UPDATE 10\/4\/06 2:04am PT:<\/b> Confirmed! We just watched the second late-night rerun of O’Reilly<\/i>, and indeed, the evidence goes down the memory hole as Fox removed the mis-labelled chiron entirely from their later broadcasts without explanation! BTW, we watched both full segments this time, including the one with Florida’s own alleged Queen of Voter Fraud, Ann Coulter<\/a> who swears up and down that Hastert just couldn’t<\/i> have known anything about Foley’s problem, he just couldn’t<\/i> have!<\/p>\n Screenshot from the rebroadcast, where the “(D-FL)” has been excised from all three video cutaways, is below…<\/p>\n UPDATE 10\/4\/06 2:13am PT:<\/b> Heheh…Bob Johnson over at dKos<\/a> may have the explanation for what happened at Fox today… \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n UPDATE 10\/4\/06 1:46pm PT:<\/b> Now AP also<\/i> labels Foley a Democrat!…<\/a><\/p>\n UPDATE 10\/4\/06 3:03pm PT:<\/b> Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR) asks<\/a> a fair question about this today…<\/p>\n UPDATE 10\/4\/06 7:15pm PT<\/b>: Looks like Olbermann covered the story tonight, natch. (No credit to yours truly, however…go figure…sigh) … Also, John Stewart this this on The Daily Show<\/i> as well. Both videos now linked here…<\/a><\/p>\n UPDATE 10\/6\/06 3:49pm PT<\/b>: O’Reilly<\/i> Executive Producer now says ‘no on-air correction necessary.’ Full details…<\/a><\/p>\n UPDATE 10\/10\/06 4:52pm PT<\/b>: Now NewsMax.com says Foley a “Democrat”!…<\/a><\/p>\n UPDATE 2\/8\/08<\/em><\/b>: Fox now shows presumptive Republican Presidential candidate John McCain also<\/i> as a Democrat!

<\/p>\n[A]ssuming it was an honest mistake…how come when the show was re-aired, the lower third was removed entirely–rather than replaced by one with the correct information? If it was important to identify Foley by party when he was thought to be a Democrat, why isn’t it just as important to correctly identify him as a Republican? We suppose that’s why Dick Cheney insists on always having his hotel room TV sets tuned to Fox News<\/b>.<\/div>\n
