it's fox news
That wouldn't get you fired[/QUOTE]
No, that's true, he'd probably get promoted.
This was obviously intentional. Notice how Fox was spelling bin Laden's first name the proper way in the first place ([b]U[/b]sama)? Stupid move Fox.
You guys are unbelievable. As I've said twice already in this thread, Fox40 is not Fox News. They are a local news station.
God damn.
[quote]but Fox has responded by saying [b]it was an easy mistake to make[/b][/quote]
They obviously did this on purpose to cause confusion and stir up controversy. The S is like 3 inches from the B on the keyboard. I could see Odama, Oaama, Owama or even Oxama, but Obama? I still don't know how it causes confusion, obviously Obama isn't bin Laden, what is wrong with people, and if it was just a mistake then how the fuck does the author confuse and associate the two?
[QUOTE=JDK721;29573307]are you blind? B isn't close to S[/QUOTE]
Yeah, but the names are close enough to be confused
Anyway Fox making triple sure no more typos happened changed it to the pre-9/11 spelling used by the FBI of 'Usama'

The names are pretty Identical and I commonly accidentally type 'my' when I wanted to type 'me' because I never bother to double check what I type

Also why is Fox getting shit when 4 different news networks made the same typo?
