They apologised for the "mistake." That was NOT a mistake. It was a calculated, well executed, manipulation of the facts to get shock value. The reporter, editor, and anyone else, knowingly, associated with this disgrace should be brought to account.

I love it when these bastards get caught.

Meanwhile, at FOX headquarters, a talent scout prepares to make a phone call...

I like the kid. He's got attitude.

I wonder, though, how he felt when he watched himself on TV that night. I hope that someone is making sure that he knows that the "mistake" was called out and corrected and that people around the country are rooting for him.

Asshole reporter/editor.

"Hmm... What's this press TV?"

Not implying anything -- it was just a bit of a surprise. I'm glad they found this out.

"Sensationalist media" is redundant.

Isolated incident. Yeaaaaaaaaaah I don't think so. If they'd said that they would misrepresent interviews with all people of all colours then I might have believed them.
