What proof do you have that the top one is photoshopped?

Not an attempt at altering the facts....probably just an error by the boob in charge of forming the text underneath the lead story.

Why would they even think they could deceive the public with this when every other news agency has reported Foley is a Republican?

I think it's probably bogus. If it is real I have serious doubts that it was intended. Fox News will be sorely embarrassed by this if the blunder is real.

If it were real I'd think one of their competitors would have reported on it by now, wouldn't you?

Actually Foley has become a Democrat so he can say it's "private" and thus ok, since it has nothing to do with his decisions on legislation, or the boys "have the right to choose what to do with their bodies". BTW, a local radio talk host- Kim Peterson- had a great scetch about calling the congressional pages office & asking them what they thought about Foley.
