Well that's really not on Fox News. Just like any News affiliate they only report the news as they receive it. They also are obligated to take any guest they interview at face value even if they suspect the information isn't accurate. So I blame Emerson for his non factual account of the information he presented. Besides the guy is probably a Democrat so what do you expect.

The purpose of journalism is thus to provide citizens with the information they need to make the best possible decisions about their lives, their communities, their societies, and their governments.
In other words, the antithesis of FOX "news".....
