Root canals are painful. Bill Gates is rich. Fox News is biased.
Duh.
Yet, however much we grow to expect conservative propaganda in the guise of "fair and balanced" journalism, Fox News tops itself time and again.
Take the network's review of Gus Van Sant's gorgeous, compelling new film Milk, a bio-pic on Harvey Milk, the first openly gay American to be elected to an official government post when he became a city supervisor of San Francisco in 1978. Fox's take on the film omits what is arguably it's most essential detail: not Harvey Milk's sexual orientation, but his openness about it.
Milk believed that gay rights would only be achieved if all the gay men and women in America came out of the closet and stood up to prejudice with confidence and pride in who they were. He was right, and he died for it.
In this short video, Liberal Viewer analyzes Fox's omission and includes some archival audio recording of Mr. Milk himself on the importance of coming out.
