I think most outlets are giving Kerry a lot of credit for his performance last night. I think Bush stuck to his message and it started to get redundant after about 30 minutes, which was when I'd say Kerry started to pull away. I was pleasantly surprised by the courtesy/politeness exhibited by both--whether it was staged or not. Kerry looks a lot better on the debate floor than Gore ever did.

Is Fox News literally making stuff up out of whole cloth about John Kerry?

I don't expect much from this Republican operation. But this does seem to break new ground.

If you go to the front page of the Fox News site, there's a link right there up front to "Trail Tales: What's that Face":

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,134166,00.html

Link through and you find this ...

quote:

Rallying supporters in Tampa Friday, Kerry played up his performance in Thursday night's debate, in which many observers agreed the Massachusetts senator outperformed the president. "Didn't my nails and cuticles look great? What a good debate!" Kerry said Friday. With the foreign-policy debate in the history books, Kerry hopes to keep the pressure on and the sense of traction going. Aides say he will step up attacks on the president in the next few days, and pivot somewhat to the domestic agenda, with a focus on women and abortion rights. "It's about the Supreme Court. Women should like me! I do manicures," Kerry said. Kerry still trails in actual horse-race polls, but aides say his performance was strong enough to rally his base and further appeal to voters ready for a change. "I'm metrosexual — he's a cowboy," the Democratic candidate said of himself and his opponent. A "metrosexual" is defined as an urbane male with a strong aesthetic sense who spends a great deal of time and money on his appearance and lifestyle.

Caught red-handed?

This morning on the Fox News website, Fox was running a post-debate story about Kerry with several apparently fabricated quotes meant to disparage the Democratic candidate.

Now Fox has pulled the article from the front page without explanation. And on the article itself the passages I quoted in the post below have all been removed -- again, without explanation.

[ed. note: I saved a copy of the offending article in its original form. Normally, I'd upload it to the site in .pdf format. But I'm away from my office and without my .pdf making software. I have a copy of it saved in Microsoft's .mht format. So I'll work on getting a copy online.]

So what's the deal here? Where did the fabricated piece come from? Who made up the quotes? How long did it run? Why did it get taken down? What happened?

Nice job, Faux.

Ive been working hard on school. I took 4 exams last week and have 2 intership interviews this week. I miss all you guys liberals and conservatives

What's funny is that Carl Cameron - the guy who wrote that spoof while waiting to file his story for FOX - is a Democrat.

Hey speedracer_mec...love that self-proctology exam!
