Review of fox news latino::What channel is MundoFox gonna be on Dish Network - Ask ...








               COMMENTARY               |               Yesterday,               as               a               small               group               of               Atlanta               Falcons               fans               came               to               my               house               to               watch               the               game,               a               former               NFL               football               player               in               attendance               who               keeps               up               with               the               news               shocked               me               with               a               story:               "I               read               that               Fox               News               Channel               isn't               broadcasting               President               Obama's               Inauguration.

They               claim               they               are               doing               'routine               maintenance.'"
               Opinions               went               back               and               forth,               based               upon               the               ideology               of               the               speaker.

Liberals               condemned               Fox               News               for               acting               like               sore               losers.

Conservatives               defended               the               right               of               the               channel               to               do               maintenance               whenever               they               wanted               to,               and               figured               conservatives               wouldn't               be               watching               the               inauguration               anyway.

It               sounded               as               rude               as               defeated               New               England               Patriots               coach               Bill               Belichick               blowing               off               the               post-game               interview               with               CBS.
               That               night,               I               looked               up               the               story.

Sure               enough,               several               websites               came               up               (see               one               here,               and               another               here)               which               relayed               the               same               story.

It               included               a               quote               from               the               well-known               Roger               Ailes               at               Fox               News.

One               even               cited               the               reputable               magazine               "The               New               Yorker"               as               a               source.

I               saw               NBC               12               from               Richmond               had               a               headline               touting               the               story.

The               hyperlink               shows               the               story               headline,               but               as               you               can               see               here,               the               page               no               longer               exists.
               So               I               thought               I               would               play               political               mythbuster               and               check               it               out               for               myself.
               I               went               to               "snopes.com,"               which               claimed               that               it               was               a               hoax,               the               creation               of               humorist               writer               Andy               Borowitz,               who               contributes               to               The               New               Yorker.
               But               snopes.com               isn't               foolproof,               so               it               was               time               to               do               the               acid               test:               watch               the               election               coverage               for               myself.

Sure               enough,               it               was               covered               on               their               "Fox               News               Presents               American               Election"               as               well               as               on               radio               and               Latino.Foxnews.com.
               Of               course,               they               included               some               snarky               comments               like               President               Barack               Obama               using               the               word               "I"               more               than               any               president.

Research               of               mine               and               my               students               from               his               keynote               address               of               2004               showed               much               fewer               self-references               than               most               other               keynote               speakers,               but               maybe               he's               "evolved"               since               becoming               president.
               They               also               tried               to               use               every               unemployment               figure,               except               for               the               unemployment               rate               itself,               to               show               how               there               are               2               percent               fewer               people               working               than               four               years               ago.

But               the               election's               over,               so               it               doesn't               really               matter.
               But               critics               of               Fox               News               Channel               need               to               check               their               sources               first               before               slamming               the               conservative               broadcast               source.
