Oh btw, the oversighting of my edits wasn't just on the English Wikipedia (Although it was the main one...), but across every wiki where I happened to have edits at. Luckily those were much easier to fix. It took a few hours to restore my contribs here. The Thing That Should Not Be (talk) 04:42, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"inaccurate follow-up stories from FoxNews.com"...? (emphasis mine)... who would have thought it could happen...? -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 11:31, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

God, no kidding, eh? Fox News may not be accurate, but at least it is consistent. Reso lute 13:00, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If Fox News reported one morning that the sun rose in the east, millions of people would be busy searching the eastern skies for that orb until scientists released a peer-reviewed, carefully-worded announcement that the sun continues to rise in the west as it has since the beginning of the Human species -- if not before. And certain US politicians would afterwards complain of political bias in how the matter was handled. -- llywrch (talk) 16:25, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The millions of people would probably see the sun rising in the east, as usual, long before scientists decided to put out a demonstrably false announcement. Warofdreams talk 16:34, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
