Foxes & Henhouses

Nice overview, with examples, of Fox operatives trying to sanitize entries for various Fox Faves. For students, this entry also helps explain why they aren't usually allowed to use Wikipedia as a source for research papers. Daily Kos: Fox News Scrubs Wikipedia: "...This is hardly all there is, but it’s certainly telling. Someone at Fox News is going online and scrubbing Wikipedia entries to make Fox look better and to attack their political enemies. Perhaps they would claim they’re simply trying to make things fair and balanced, but the rest of us see little more than revisionist history."
