No Marty.  Wrong.  Fox News may be in a difficult situation here, but we KNOW the MSM lies every single day about everything, and the only reason they've never faced a major, credible defamation suit is because there is a liberal left wing conspiracy that is so big and so obvious that I should never have to offer even a shred of evidence for it, and you are an infidel for even asking me to offer such evidence.
