Angry FOX/Faux News - Ministry of Information?

For all the "outrage" that is on FOX over the 'lies' of liberals or anti-Americanism, why do personalities on the network seem to see no problem with their lies? or their bashing of other nations?

Aside from the obvious example of O'Reilly, others on FOX have been editorializing instead of reporting - and blatantly mis-representing, ignoring, or making up facts to support their views...

Case in point would have been the recent coverage of the Air France crash up here in Toronto....

We have the tool that is on before Bret Hume (sorry his name escapes me at the moment) going off on a standardized tear on anything French - grudgingly acknowledging that the actions of the air crew saved the passengers.... then he makes an aside comment about the co-pilot being up by the highway instead of back at the crash sight, implying he was a coward, or had abandonded his duty/post...

Problem is in the papers up here and on CBC we have crew and passenger accounts that the co-pilot was the last to leave the plane after checking the seats to ensure that no one was left behind; he then went to the highway to organize the evacuation/transport of the 2 dozen plus passengers gathers at there; then the co-pilot went back to the crash site to aid in the emergency efforts there... why were the facts ignored, or lies made up to once again? and why no outrage at FOX over their own "reporters" continuing lies/willful ignorance/propoganda?
