Al Gore said we’re being deceived. Fred Barnes quickly made him a prophet

...if you watched last night’s Special Report, you got to see the corrupted Barnes selling his body parts to the devil. But you also saw Fox’s brilliant “all-stars” sitting back and refusing to correct him. Surely, every member of Brit Hume’s panel knew that what Barnes said was false. But Fox’s “all- stars” are deeply corrupted—they’re store-bought, and they’re dead-dog cowards—and they know what they’re paid to convey to Fox viewers...

.."Well, I—that was the impression that we were left with,” Juan Williams muttered, slinking back in his chair for the ten millionth time. And Hume and Kondracke both said nothing —although they surely knew that what Barnes had said was utterly, one hundred percent false.

Millions of Americans tune in to Fox without understanding that they’re being deceived. Al Gore, politely, noted that in his speech. So Fred and Mort knew what to do. Just like that, they got lying.
