As I said, I can't point to a specific instance - but I invite you to watch "Outfoxed" for a dissertation on how Fox uses the "Moore Method".
Are you really making the defense that a veiled misrepresentation is somehow more excusable than an outright misrepresentation?
Fox also benefits from low expectations. Nobody expects them to be fair and balanced, so unless they come out with bald faced bullshit stories, people say "What'd you expect? Its Fox" - like you did in one of your previous posts.
If Fox is willing to say "We're idealogues, not a standard news outfit", I'd be fine with anything they said, but they don't. And they never will. Thats the problem.
