We report ... whatever we want
On Saturday, Fox News talking head Anna Kooiman
reported this shocking news:
"It really doesn't seem fair, especially -- and we're going to talk a little bit later in the show too about some things that are continuing to be funded. And President Obama has offered to pay for the museum of Muslim culture out of his own pocket, yet it's the Republican National Committee who's paying for this," [keeping war memorials open] Kooiman said.
Of course it wasn't true and Ms. Kooiman acknowledged her "mistake" via Twitter:
Just met w producers- I made a mistake yday after receiving flawed research abt a museum possibly closing. My apologies. Won't happen again.

But let's cut Kooiman a little slack. After all, who hasn't been the victim of "flawed research"? It was probably just an honest mistake that the crack research team from Fox News
didn't notice that the source of this story was also reporting that
Jesus Christ boycotts hobby lobby and that
Police Barge Into Kindergarten Classroom And Taser Multiple Children "For The Heck Of It."
Yep, nothing to see here ... just a little flawed research on the Kenyan Marxist Dictator from our friends at Fox ... now, back to their regular programing.
