Outfoxed

From MoveOn.org:

"Since Fox News is unable to rebut the basic premise of 'Outfoxed,' its anchors have resorted to slamming the film's technique. Fox News' convention correspondent Carl Cameron, who is portrayed in the movie sucking up to then-Governor Bush before an interview, complained 'It was an unfortunate piece of editing in the movie that gave a far worse impression than the reality.'

"To counter this charge, director Robert Greenwald has released the entire footage of Cameron's pre-interview moments with Bush, when he didn't realize the tape was rolling. The full clip makes Cameron look even worse. He spends a full three minutes fawning over Bush. See this outrageous footage here."

From Jeff: Wow. This video is amazing for two reasons. One, Carol Cameron is a partisan Republican hack. Two, George W. Bush comes across as a likeable, reasonable man. I've got to give credit where credit is due- my biggest take-away from this video is a bit more respect for W. I bet that's not what MoveOn.org had in mind!
