The method is abit more clever than Fox. Its not a case of distortion, its more a case that they get guests on to make those inaccurate statements but don't disagree because they serve their cause. They are allowed to go on and on. If the statements are called out for being inaccurate after the show has aired they distance themselves from the statement. The guests do the mud-slinging and take all the risk.
If someone comes on with a statement that is inaccurate and is *opposed* to their cause they are immediately called on it. Usually the person isn't there to retort, its a clip.
Every title, every sentiment, everything they do is controversial soundbites that they then go off on.
I wouldn't recommend watching most of their videos but Sam Harris was a perfect example of some of their work.
