Just another classic example of not believing everything you see/hear via the media. Clearly they didn't validate anything before putting him on tv! I say good for him...funny too!!

More like just another classic example of a trust fund baby from a wealthy upbringing with nothing better to do than to waste peoples time. He wasn't old enough to vote in 2008 and he isn't mature enough to vote now.

Typical behavior from a New Trier brat.... And to think, as class president that's the best they thought they had? Frightening. If I were his parents or friends I would be embarrassed but much like the young lady above, class will tell.

Oh dear, I see Willard fans are upset that someone much younger has the talent and ability to outsmart the terribly dull and desperate Fox propagandists. I am sure that if he had filled Carlson's expectations, you both be praising him and his wealthy parents. Its sort of funny and ironic that Donna talks about Max being a New Trier brat while Chris makes reference to his being a "trust fund baby". I thought Romney lovers love the rich and their children. Hmmmm . . . odd.

.I make no claim as to whether the young man outsmarted anyone, who he may support in either the 2008 or 2012 election or any indication as to whom I may or may not support. My comment stems from the fact that he used a public medium to entertain himself and his other 18 year old buddies lying on public television, wasting other people's time and embarrassing himself and his family simultaneously. If his claim had been true and not a lie, then there wouldn't be a story now would there? My comment addresses only his behavior, not his political beliefs. As for the "New Trier brats", it is my personal opinion that Many, certainly not all, New Trier kids live in a created reality and in my experience have little regard for others which I think is a shame. Regardless of their political affiliations, truthfulness and respect for others should be a part of their belief system; clearly, at least for is young man, those are traits he does not have.

Regardless of the kids intention I think the bigger issue is why a national media outlet didn't take the time and effort to do, what seems to be, a simple fact check. Where does their responsibility lie when reporting?

The interviewee acts like he's on crack or some other drug !!

You're clearly missing the point. This whole write up is pointing out the open mockery of the media because of their inability to check out basic facts, in the search for a story that will fit their narrative. I mean, it shows the system as a joke on its face.

"I thought Romney lovers love the rich and their children. Hmmmm . . . odd."
lol Sheldon.... great points there too.

"he used a public medium to entertain himself and his other 18 year old buddies
*lying on public television*"

Do you actually watch Fox News? I really don't think you do.

What actual journalism might look like:

Follow-up could be better but this is still light years ahead of our normal statist media.

This guy misrepresented himself and all he did was to prove that Fox News simply took him at his word for what and who he said he was. An honest mistake that any news outlet could make.

Compare that to the heroes who misrepresented themselves to Acorn, and all they did was to blow the lid off Acorn's corruption, fraud, and abetting criminal activity.

There is no comparison.

Mr. Rice just comes off as a self-absorbed child who thinks he's funny and wants to prove it.

And this high school class president believes that the news media's job is to EDUCATE the masses. For some reason, Pravda comes to mind.
