Their main political reporter, Carl Cameron, posted a fake story Friday about a supposed Kerry speech, complete with made-up quotes from Kerry.
It'll be interesting to see if this gets as much attention as the CBS fiasco. I guess they really are earning their nickname, Faux News.
It also raises a lot of questions about just how unbiased Cameron is, given that the fake story is full of that PAD-level "humor" that Limbaugh lovers gobble up.
They've since taken down the fake story and put up a retraction.
