Icon The real scoop...

...is that you are posting a story that once again shows Fox to be the home of utter nonsense.

We make shit up, you decide!

Here's a huge clue, Pat, when you read a story and the primary source is an unnamed hotel security guard that is claiming a National Enquirer reporter (also unnamed) dropped his notebook somewhere near a men's room and it has "everything on Edwards in it"...well...it's pretty safe to assume "Houston, we have a problem."

Oddly, and this is pretty funny, our hero in this story, the unnamed guard, does not even know who he was locked in a men's room with because he does not know what Edwards looks like. Plus the one line of dialog they give Edwards is hilarious and adds to the comedy!

"What are they saying about me?" he asks the unnamed guard who is locked in the men's room with him. Well, at least this is what the unnamed guard says Edwards asked in the story. You've got to be kidding.

The real question is, why can Fox publish a story that holds not a single fact and does not even name a single witness in this report that can place Edwards at the scene? How do they get away with calling themselves a "news organization" is what you should be asking after reading that.

So, I could write an article that states that a grocery clerk saw John McCain giving a blow job to Karl Rove in the frozen foods aisle and even though he did not recognize either man Rove dropped his diary which has all the sordid details of their sex life in it and he knew it was Rove and McCain because the diary said "Karl Rove's Diary" on the front and it contained stories about how McCain would feed Rove freedom fries with his toes while the two of them jerked off. I could print that on Fox news I guess because I don't need to name a source or provide a witness or any evidence that it happened. I just need to say it happened and YOU DECIDE!

That's great.
