    On the heels of their "mistake" (yeah, right) of labeling Mark Foley a Democrat on a graphic a couple of months ago comes this little "mistake" (yeah, right) from Tuesday night . . .

    If you can't see the problem . . . let's just say I'm not surprised.

    This wasn't a CG over Berger speaking on a sound bite -- note the White House background, a place he hasn't been in six years. It was an attempt at a clever headline over one of Hannity's rants while talking about Berger's imbroglio at the National Archives.

    It was wrong, period, on every level.

    Most vidcaps like this are of dated events. The ones of Mark Foley were months old.

    But your graphics MUST STILL LABEL THEM CORRECTLY ON A NEWS NETWORK.

    This isn't Comedy Central.
     
  6. In fairness, CNN accidentally called Obama "Osama" on a graphic a few days ago and later apologized.
     
  7. That's for goddamn sure.

    You're right . . . which makes three gross errors in recent weeks, the kind of which you would expect to see on Rush Limbaugh's show.

    But of course, the media is liberal, right?

    One thing that's pretty consistent with the left: The truth hurts.

    Turd Burglar would be funny. This is just sloppy and lazy.
