In Fox's case, it's plausible, if not very likely, that they simply fell behind the timeline and reported old information incorrectly. In other words, a mistake. In this case, someone had to physically edit a video in a way that obviously changed it's tone and meaning.
How come this isn't front page news on all other mainstream media outlets?
1. I'm not arguing it's ok for the other side to do it either. So if they do it, yes it's bad too. And yes, I'm aware it goes on.
2. Saying biased reporting that confirms their views would piss conservatives off or harm their credibility with conservatives is lol. It's not like a conservative is sitting there 'OMG fucking Fox I'll never go to them for my right-wing news again. They just told me what I wanted to hear!'
2a. Fox's viewers don't have to be kool-aid drinkers, they just have to be willing to explain away any bias and/or bad reporting on their part, intentional or not.
