> Summary: During a segment in which Fox & Friends co-hosts Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade labeled New York Times reporter Jacques Steinberg and editor Steven Reddicliffe "attack dogs," Fox News featured photos of Steinberg and Reddicliffe that appeared to have been digitally altered — the journalists' teeth had been yellowed, their facial features exaggerated, and portions of Reddicliffe's hair moved further back on his head.

Wait… this is actually a real news program? Not a parody of some sort? (Take a look at the video clip.)

Wow.

Yeah, there's Fox for ya.

LOL @ the excessively dark circles under their eyes. Like these guys never sleep, they're up all night scheming new ways to bring down down Fox News.

Oops, extra "down". That's the first typo I've made on here. Fuck, I hate making typos.

God I fucking hate Fox. I love all the funny the stupid shit they say, but I hate that so many Americans don't understand how much they lie and distort the truth.

I'm not defending Fox, but EVERY station has done this at one point. CNN got in trouble, TIME has done this, it's not all that out of normal.

Right, but when it's a station that I don't like, it becomes a big deal, get it? Like Obama. He did crack, but that's okay, because I like him. Bush did drugs, and that makes him unqualified, get it? An action is positive or negative based on my personal opinion of the perpetrator.
