Do you know why it would have been chalked up to an honest mistake had CBS done this? Becaue CBS is more dependable that Fox News for truth. They use less 'spin' than Fox News. It is not unreasonable to asume that this may have slipped through due to disinterest in Canada and it's governmental system. It could have also been ignorance (Fox News: what's a Prime Minister?). Fox News has a track record that we have to take into account when looking at a 'mistake' like this one. To ignore that record is "both naive and intellectually dishonest".

I'm white and I was born into a mostly white community. One could even call me previlaged. Of course that has nothing to do with whether one has dealt with discrimination, and everyone knows that. Someone claiming they know discrimination any better than anyone else clearly has no sense of reality.
Fox thinks it's the center of the universe, and this serious error only drives that point home all the faster.
