EDIT: the mental gymnastics below is real, I'll add more examples as I find them, you can choose how wrong they got it and if Fox is worse, or when or how each individual should apologize... P.S. you guys are nuts, everyone was saying "it's less than 2%!!!"

But yeah, us conservatives and the only conservative mainstream news channel and our conservative President are the source of all of your problems. /s

No it's a tacky political attack in the middle of a crisis. Real classy.
