I don't believe that everything that Fox says is a lie... But I prefer to get a second opinion on anything they say, just like I do with Wikipedia...

However, the fact that Fox has publicly and legally said, "our news is for entertainment purposes only, so we can spice things up if we want" doesn't impress me with their moral standards...

That said, I know our legal system is broken... It's a hazard of democracy (and really any form of government)... And while I think that it's broken, I still think it's a mostly good one... Better than many other nations by a longshot...
It sucks that these people have become the victims of legal manipulation... And I know it's happened to many other people, both for good and bad... But it's unavoidable in any legal system, regardless of which system it is...
I don't condone it, but I've come to accept it...
