Looney Lunatics

I attended the National Conference on Media Reform over the weekend and had a great time. Hopefully, if I can get through the mounds of work that have piled up in my absence, I will get a chance to blog about it. But in the meantime, I just thought I would share this video with my friends so that they could understand where I was:



The whole thing is so ridiculous. O'Reilly taunted the NCMR on his show on Friday, and then his camera crew goaded conference attendees to make sure there was footage to manipulate for Monday's episode. I'm familiar with Fox's nickname Faux News, but it really hits home when you are at an event that receives such distorted coverage.

NCMR is uploading lots of footage from the conference over the next few days. Check out the videos...there's some really good stuff!

And since I don't have time to counter the Fox coverage, here are some great responses from Josh Silver of Free Press and Eric Deggans of the St. Petersburg Times.
