>>> PROPAGANDA ESCONDIDA?
 
A MoveOn.org acusa a FoxNews de publicidade enganosa, devido ao uso do "slogan" "Fair and Balanced" ("Justa e Equilibrada"), numa petição apresentada à Comissão Federal para o Comércio (FTC, Federal Trade Comission) dos EUA."

Entretanto no site da MoveOn.org aparece o panfleto justificativo desta campanha conjunta com a Common Cause. Vale a pena lêr o PDF. 

Alguns excertos das notícias da Fox. A confirmar-se isto, é de pensar mesmo.

“The so-called 9/11 commission has been
meeting. Do not turn this into Watergate.”
(3/23/04)

“Today is likely to be the apex of the so-called
9/11 commission hearings. Remember that
while there are obvious political implications
for Bush, the commission is looking at eight
years of the Clinton Administration versus eight
months . . . for Bush.”
(3/24/04)

“Do not fall into the easy trap of mourning the
loss of U.S. lives [in Iraq] and asking out loud
why are we there.”
(4/4/04)

“Ribbons or medals? Which did John Kerry
throw away after he returned from Vietnam?
His perceived disrespect for the military could
be more damaging to the candidate than
questions about his actions in uniform.”
(4/26/04)

“Also, let’s refer to the US marines we see in the
foreground as ‘sharpshooters,’ not ‘snipers,’
which carries a negative connotation.”
(4/28/04)

“The President and VP are MEETING with the
9/11 commission. They are NOT testifying . . . ”
(4/29/04)

“The President goes to Michigan [today],
accompanied by a powerful campaign asset,
the first lady.”
(5/3/04)

Quantos não dirão que estas ideias são panfletárias na escola da Michael Moore e completamente descbidas. é a típica ideia de direita: acalmar para o lodo baixar.
