Fox News : War Games

I came across this article on digg. Its about a Glenn Beck program on Fox News called ‘War Room’. The article provides an interesting read (though a bit long). The embedded fox videos contain a fair bit of fear mongering, a la… <The government isn’t upholding the values of the constitution and the militias (or bubbas) may need to fight a new civilwar in 2104>

The videos will mean different things to different people based on their views. The reason I’m writing THIS post is to point out a glaring error in Fox News’ fact checking.

War Room Scenario #2 paints the very bleak outlook :

50 million people worldwide are unemployed. There are riots in the streets.

The problem is, as of 2007 there were 180 million people unemployed!

Just image the carnage that would be unleashed if 130 million people got new jobs!
