Start here at the Talking points memo. Read the next few entries, if you haven’t heard about it already.
Fox has taken to making up unflattering Kerry quotes (quite a few of them) and putting them on the website. Not too surprising that there is this kind of desperation in the extended Bush campaign after that debate.
Posted by James at October 2, 2004 9:21 AMIf you go to Talkingpoints's link to Fox, you'll now find this retraction:
"Earlier Friday, FOXNews.com posted an item purporting to contain quotations from Kerry. The item was based on a reporter’s partial script that had been written in jest and should not have been posted or broadcast. We regret the error, which occurred because of fatigue and bad judgment, not malice."

Also, if you ran a legitimate news organization, wouln't it concern you that a reporter assigned to a major party's candidate for the presidency was spending his time (not so secretly) mocking and deriding said candidate?
So much for 'professional' journalism.
