Annan calls out Fox News reporter for misquoting him

[oberliner]

Look at the last line of this exchange between Kofi Annan and a Fox reporter.

He tells him:

"Do quote accurately next time, please."

Here is the link to the whole exchange:

1. Ha. Knowing FOX, they'll go out of their way to misquote him again

[wtmusic]

2. "James Rosen, with Fox News, representing the U.S. media"

James Rosen doesn't "represent the US media". James Rosen represents the worst of the US media.

Another factual error, James.

8. Brit Hume must get a kick out of demands for Media integrity

[wtmusic]

9. I have no doubt in Brit's mind

he has as much integrity as the next guy

3. Good for Kofi...

Not that it matters to American PRAVDA.

[beam me up scottie]

4. A true gentleman.

So rare these days.

We feel like we hit the jackpot if our "leader" doesn't run over a policeman while riding his tricycle, grope a foreign dignitary, or forget to zip his fly.

11. Or shoot his pal in the face....

Kofi has class.

5. Kofi Annan

6. I'll second that.

[Totally Committed]

10. I'll THIRD that...

I've always been a fan of Annan's.

7. Link's not working.

12. Faux News and their minions have worked overtime

trashing and marginalizing Annan and the UN, for years now.

Nice to know this soft-spoken man has called BS on their manipulation of the truth.
