So what has Fox news been saying about the NIE report that came about Iran not having nuclear weapons?

Are they even bringing up the subject? If so, what spin are they using?

If FOX cannot put a good spin on something, they simply don't report it. When the Democrats took control of Congress in 2006, the FOX News website didn't have a headline about the election results. It was the day after the most decisive midterm election in the history of the United States, and if you were looking at the FOX News website, it was like it didn't even happen.

They have a picture of a fugitive kangaroo on the front page of their website now. hmm... a little deeper into the site they have an article that starts with Iranian officials praising the US intelligence agencies. That could be a prelude to saying if the Iranians are happy with the intelligence report, it must be wrong. Tomorrow they'll ask on the the air, "What do Ahmadinejad, US liberals and the NIE have in common?"

So, no, I don't think Bush has given up on bombing Iran. He still has his fall back argument that Iran is "acquiring knowledge" about weapons making, as it enriches uranium for its power plants. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,314867,00.html

Neo pirate is correct Fox said the same thing I heard on CNN. Iran stopped their nuclear weapons program in 2003 but has continued to enrich uranium since.

Well about the same as other news agencies, without pointing out the fact Bush was acting on 4 year old intel without attempting to obtain anything new.
You know the typical way of playing fair an balanced...report the events without giving full credit where credit is due, unless it makes Bush look good.

compare the articles for yourself....read each article, you'll see huge differences

Since it seems you don't watch, it doesn't matter.
What is CNN (Communist's News Network), CBS (Communist's Broadcasting System), and HNN (Hanoi Jane News Network) spewing?

They are reporting it fairly as always, unlike the Communist News Network.
