I guess it is the Rupert Murdoch Way.

Add in the fact that during the NFC Championship game Fox made great play of showing Cutler standing alone and seemingly not caring what was happening on the field. Yet, they DIDN'T show him when he was engaged with the backup QB between plays and helping him out/coaching him up.
Similar thing happened during last Sunday's game when they showed him standing alone at the edge of the boxed-area and watching the game. Joe Buck was getting on his high horse and berating him about it in that slimy way that only Joe Buck can when his boyfriend Mr Aikman pointed out that he did the self-same thing, as do a lot of other players, as it is where you get the best view - completely away from players/coaches blocking your vision. Only then did Buck shut up. They also didn't show Urlacher standing alone down there which he does often.
Vendetta? You bet it is. Sorry for the rant but outright lying about a player and being selective in what you show on-screen in order to support your own agenda against that player is kinda disgusting to me. Why do it anyway?
