More detail on this later, but it appears as though my least-favorite war correspondent Geraldo Rivera lied one of his reports earlier this month. What is more troubling is that Fox News has not explained or apologized or even acknowledged that this occurred. Instead, a network spokesman accused the paper that reported the incident for having some sort of vendetta against Fox News.
I've never liked Geraldo, and I thought it was a mistake for Fox News to hire him. If they've gotten burned by Geraldo they should admit it, fire him and move on. The last thing they should be doing is defending him. It's very damaging for all the credibility for fair and accurate reporting they've been able to build up.
