Check out this FOX News Channel hit job on Congressman Ron Paul’s (R-Surfside, Tex.) comments on 9/11 at the South Carolina Republican Candidates Debate.

Paul talked about “blowback,” a CIA term for unintended consequences from covert action. During the debate, Rudy Giuliani grossly mischaracterized his comments, which led FOX News to spin it around by calling the Congressman a “9/11 ‘truther’” and went off on a 9/11 conspiracy theorist tangent.

Then, FOX News commentator John Gibson completely misinterpreted a Rasmussen poll about Democrats and 9/11, and then to top it off, brings in Michelle Malkin, of all people, to push the talking point.
