    Former President Jimmy Carter slammed Fox News Channel Sunday for their coverage of President Barack Obama.

    "With the discussion groups, for instance, on Fox News, that are totally biased, and they implant completely false images not only of the facts about legislation that's passed, or doesn't get passed, but also about the character of President Obama," Cater told CNN's Howard Kurtz.

    "And they have been successful in projecting him as a person who is not a citizen of America, who is not a Christian, but a Muslim, and is not a Democrat, but he's a socialist, and so forth," he continued.

    "And those seeds that are planted every day that they broadcast by the discussion, in the discussion groups, have found a harvest place in the minds of a lot of Americans. So I think they have completely twisted around what he has done, what he has accomplished, and his own personal character to his detriment. It's a small portion of the total news media."

    How about this clip from a cable news network from Carter's home state?

    I don't believe it. Fox News is fair and balanced, they say so right on the TV.
