In a single day, rightwing media lies 18,988 times (* well I'm estimating but here is one day's worth of total falsaehoods, mispresenations and outright propaganda from the RNC-Rove spin machine, somtimes repeated by so-called liberal papers like the MY times. Of course, as they lie, people die, and more and more of our money gets wasted and stolen.) Lowry repeated misleading Wal-Mart health care defense AP, USA Today, Wash. Times uncritically reported Bush assertion of progress in Iraqi cities of Mosul, Najaf Limbaugh defended his and Mehlman's Kerry distortion with falsehood Newspapers largely ignored Murtha's revelation that military will request $100 billion for war next year WSJ, USA Today, AP ignored fact that GOP tax cuts outweigh spending cuts by $44 billion Wash. Times editorial, Limbaugh repeated Drudge's false claim that IAEA's ElBaradei said Iran only a "few months" from nuclear weapons Limbaugh repeated NewsMax.com's false claim that McCain "admitted that torture worked on him" Limbaugh falsely suggested that "9-11 Commission didn't say anything about" torture NY Times cited irrelevant poll question to suggest little voter support for Murtha troop-withdrawal plan O'Reilly falsely claimed Falwell's group did not threaten suit over Boston "holiday" tree CBS's Borger falsely claimed Tex. judge threw out "half the charges" against DeLay Wash. Post apparently invented polling data to suggest little support for Murtha's Iraq proposal Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Neill distorted Kerry's criticism of U.S. tactics in Iraq. NBC's Chip Reid revived GOP "cut and run" line Major newspapers reported Rice's denial that U.S. allows torture but didn't note administration's narrow definition * And the BS goes on and on and on.
