Unintentional errors no longer acceptable on Fox!

Right after Fox's management emailed a memo about eliminating errors on their news (I know, they were serious!), the chart below was used to explain some poll results.

63% + 60% + 70% = 193%! Don't be too discouraged, though. That's 193% of just Republicans.

Some highlights from the memo:        

• "Effective immediately, there is zero tolerance for on-screen errors. Mistakes by any member of the show team that end up on air may result in immediate disciplinary action..."
• "a key quote from today's meeting: 'It is more important to get it right, than it is to get it on.'"

The memo was sent after Fox recently ran stories that used films of larger crowds from past stories as background for reports on a rally and for Sarah Palin's book tour. The memo didn't address whether Fox's usual dishonesty is included in the memo's warnings.

Sunday Bible Verses

Leviticus 19:27 You shall not cut the hair on the sides of your heads, neither shall you clip off the edge of your beard.

Some appear to be skipping other verses, too:

1 Peter 3:3-4 Let your beauty be not just the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on fine clothing; but in the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God very precious.

There's always this, too.
