Dworkin report - Fox Uses Jimmy Carter's Passing to Concoct Fake Biden Controversy
Last night, I was thinking about our loss of former President Jimmy Carter, while analyzing corporate medias coverage of his passing. I saw so many wonderful tributes, before I ran into this outrageous Fox News front page headline: Biden jabs Trump over what he could learn from former President Carter as he shares favorite memory.
-snip-
First of all, President Biden did not jab or criticize Trump.
Joe was asked what Trump should take away from Jimmy Carters legacy, and heres the quote that Fox printed from his answer: Decency, decency, decency
Can you imagine Jimmy Carter walking by someone who needed something and just keep walking? Can you imagine Jimmy Carter referring to someone by the way they look or the way they talk?
Those little dots there, thats where Biden said, everybody deserves a shot. Everybody. But Fox left that part out. And Joe used the word decency to describe Carter earlier in his brief words about him. It wasnt something he reserved for Trump.

(121,672 posts)Fox concluded that Biden was implying something less than decency on the part of Trump just by talking about how decent Carter was. And whether or not Biden intentionally implied such a thing, Fox's toadies know it's true, and therefore squealed on behalf of Trump because he was the pig that got hit.
