Fox news shows wrong iPhone 5 features

[moneymike47]

So i was watching the news when they started talking about people waiting in line for the iPhone 5, and then they dumb people over at Fox 5 NY forgot to check their facts and took a video from youtube that shows a futuristic-like iPhone with a holographic keyboard and such.

Watch for yourself:

Local news is the worst for this kind of crap. It's not the networks, but the local channels and their lazy reporters.

They should have hired Rene as a consultant on this story. They would at least be able to report the facts. Fox is the worst.

 

[moneymike47]

Like they should be embarrassed haha I wonder if they corrected it the next day

After all.... it is Faux News we're dealing with here.

that was Effin' hilarious, wow Fox wanna hire me as your tech correspondent?

 

[moneymike47]

They literally had to have just typed iPhone 5 into YouTube and didn't even check the facts.... I mean if I were a journalist, which I'm not by any means, I would have went straight to apple.com and looked for the specs; but then again that's just me

Fox news and accuracy never go hand in hand.

Well. I would love to comment but then this thread will be a political debate...

 

[Exxod]

Yeah. Let's keep it tech-based. Leave the politiks out.

Fox news posts wrong everything, a lie is told every time they start flapping their lips.

I disagree... but that’s an argument for a different time and place.

What is important (besides the fact that the original post is over 4 months old) is that it was NOT a FoxNews story... but rather a story produced by the news department at a local Fox affiliate. Huge difference.

It helps to know the facts... even when one is trying to be snarky. #justsaying

For the most part most reporters only know its a newer iPhone and it will probably be faster. Other than it having an apple logo on it they see no difference unless they watched a commercial.
