Did Fox "News" make a mistake, or was this intentional?
As you are all already aware of, Fox “News” recently used Barack Obama’s Face instead of Mitt Romney’s, as you can see here
Was this a genuine mistake (which I doubt), or was this an intentional act to associate Romney and his political stance and history with that of Obama, to sabotage Romney’s candidacy (which I find more likely to be true)?

If it was an intentional “mistake”, I would suspect it aimed more at bolstering Gingrich’s chances rather than sabatoging Romneys.
Gingrich?!?!?!? What the F* is the GOP thinking?!?!?!?
@robmandu
I don’t think that rule can be applied to Fox “News”.
@Qingu , that’s amazing. It makes me sad that their viewers buy tis crap.
Wow, really? Saw all the links including @Qingu‘s and…sheesh! This is what happens when you have a conniving saggy-faced Emperor ( Murdoch ) recruit a Dark Douche of the Sith, er, I mean Shit ( Ailes ) to head a powerful network ruling over gullible brain freezed droids.
Once again I think it’s time for this party to die and come back anew. The right wing equivalent has tended always to be pretty good in its early years.
Intentional. Haha I’m wondering, 1. Where these people (behind the scenes of Fox “News”) grew up. 2. Why do they feel they have to trick their viewers. 3. Are there viewers just desperate to bash the Democratic party and not focus on real problems in society?
We sure do live in strange times. Fox News, lol.
That is too funny! It might be a Freudian slip! HA!
Does it matter? I half-heard something about Fox trying to pull back a bit, except that it seems the more extreme they are, the more money they make. What business man in his right mind would water down a product that he couldn’t keep on the shelves?
I have to say that Fox has no principles at all, if they no longer follow the principle of maximizing profit. They sure know how to appeal to the sucker market. The knuckledragger niche. The end of the gene pool so shallow, even a fetus wouldn’t drown in it.
That’s Fox. I could have bought this being a stupid mistake the first 4 times, but no one is that stupid.
Fox News, like everything man made, is imperfect.
