Summary
It's a criticism well deserved by Fox News and its best known
personalities. The news network misled its viewers into believing all
sorts of falsehoods about the war with Iraq: that Weapons of Mass
Destruction were found, that Saddam Hussein was behind the 9/11
terrorist attacks, and that the U.S. was in Iraq to "help the Iraqi
people." All three are lies, and yet the vast majority of Fox News
viewers believe at least one of them to be true. What's to blame for
the deception? A near complete departure from ethical journalism, says
John S. Carroll, the editor of the LA Times.
