Fox News Channel admits fake story about Kerry

Officials at 'Fox News' Channel admitted that one of their political reporters has been disciplined for posting a fake news item on its website about US Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry.

Fox's chief political correspondent Carl Cameron has been disciplined for posting an item on FoxNews.Com that included several made-up quotes attributed to Kerry.

"Carl has been reprimanded," Fox said yesterday, declining further comment.


Wasn't it Fox that was demanding that one of their competitor’s anchormen be fired for accepting documents that were forgeries? Gee I guess making up lies isn't as bad as not thoroughly checking out sources.
