Fair and Balanced, My Ass

As you can see in the screen grab on the left, while Mark Sanford was explaining that he had been in Argentina the last 5 days screwing around on his wife, Fox News accidentally put a "(D)" (as in Democrat) after his name (They corrected it in later chryons). Interestingly, Fox had no problem correctly labeling him a Republican when he was still in the good graces of the GOP. Most sane people would think that this is a simply typo. However, this is not the first time Fox has done this. When former congressman Mark Foley admitted to having problems with alcoholism -- after reports that he had behaved inappropriately with congressional pages -- Fox News also identified him as a Democrat. Gee, I wonder why they don't make the same mistake whenever a Democrat screws up..
