Fox Nation is a serial headline-abuser. In their case it appears to be intentional. Nobody could be THAT bad at the summarizing an article's content in a few words, and, oddly, the misstatements ALWAYS lean far right. One example among hundreds: A UK judge granted a hearing to a guy who says he was fired due to his environmental beliefs (he won't fly). The judge said that a person's environmental beliefs, if firmly held, have the same legal status as a philosophy or a religion, meaning that you can't fire someone for holding them. A Telegraph article reported it with this headline: Climate change belief given same legal status as religion But Fox's post linking to the Telegraph article was headlined: UK Judge Rules Climate Change A "Religion". Oh, please. He said it has the same legal status AS a religion (or a philosophy). He didn't say that it IS a religion (or a philosophy). Someone tell me this wasn't intentional. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
