Yesterday, Fox News spliced a six-month old clip of
Vice President Biden to misleadingly imply that he recently said the “fundamentals of the economy are strong.” Today, Fox News’s
Martha MacCallum "proudly" apologized to viewers and said it was an “inadvertent” error.MacCALLUM: Yesterday during a segment on the recent change in tone from President Obama’s economic team, we inadvertently used a piece of video of Vice President Biden saying “the fundamentals of the economy are strong.” This video was from the campaign trail when the vice president was a candidate and was actually quoting Sen. John McCain. When we get something wrong we admit it. We did so yesterday, and for that we apologize.

If Fox News apologised every time they got something wrong, they'd never have any time to report news, they'd instead be apologising for getting the apologies wrong.
In truth the only time fox news are ever likely to apologise is when they've been caught.
Untrustworthy and Unbalanced.
