Some how this seemingly knee-jerk reaction gives me pause.
My admittedly knee-jerk reaction to Fox News is based on long experience and, BTW, has nothing to do with politics. Over the years I have been interviewed by every major news organization I can think of and I'm no stranger to being misquoted and having TIGHAR's work misrepresented. Fox, whether TV or on line, screws it up more consistently than any media outlet, bar none. I once did a live interview on Fox & Friends. Never again. They were so unprepared and their questions so profoundly stupid that the whole thing was an embarrassment. Last year, after the event at the State Department, Fox was the only media outlet among the dozens that covered the story who reported that the U.S. Government was giving TIGHAR financial support. I was deluged with emails from Fox viewers who were rightly outraged that taxpayer dollars would be spent in such a way. I had to explain to them that it simply was not true, even though they had heard it on Fox News.
So, yeah, when I see our work mis-reported again on Fox News my knee tends to jerk. In this case, the sin was one of omission rather than commission. Nobody read the article to see whether the Discovery News headline was an accurate representation of what was in the copy. Maybe that's expecting too much.
