OMG!!! Obama’s half-aunt may be in America illegally! This irrelevant bit of material brought to you via a leak from the Bush administration and blared across the world by the Ron Fournier led AP. Or something.

So funny. If this is a prelude to the future, I’m going to love seeing the Obama folks smack Fox in the nose. Megyn Kelly: cute but crazy.
Reader S.M. caught this one.

NY Post has to remove story attacking Obamas because it was made up. Keith Olbermann is familiar with the NY Post’s tactics on this.

Rupert Murdoch & Co. are doing their damndest to win back this election for John McCain. But I don’t think it will work. This isn’t 2002 or 2004.

Goes to Ben Smith of The Politico (who, God knows, I have regularly given a hard time):
“McCain camp attacks Times, doesn’t deny report”
Of course, for the McCain campaign that is a feature, not a bug.
Why Do The Women Of The View Have More Balls Than The MSM To Call Out Lying McCain?

Just wondering. More here.
UPDATE: The AP uses “fumbled” as a nice way of saying “lied”.
Republican presidential candidate John McCain on Friday defended two debunked television ads attacking Democrat Barack Obama and claimed erroneously that running mate Sarah Palin never sought money for lawmakers’ pet projects as Alaska governor.
Palin sought $197 million in so-called “earmarks” for [...]

Today there is a story in the Washington Post, discussing the McCain campaign’s fundamental tactic of just lying. Lying about McCain, lying about Palin. If their lips are moving, they are lying. But while the fault does largely lie with McCain and the Republican party for making outright lies one of the legs of the [...]
Chris Wallace Makes A Funny About Brit Hume’s Lack Of Objectivity

Yes, lack.
“One of the things Wallace credits with FNC’s success is separation. ‘We’ve been very careful to keep our opinion separate. Our news division takes care of that,’ he says. ‘That’s done us well and I think that’s why you see these numbers. See, when Brit or Shepard Smith are on, that’s our news division [...]
Why Does Your Journalism Suck? (Mark Halperin Edition)
August 24th, 2008

Because people like Mark Halperin aren’t just grabbing coffee for people, they’re “senior” level correspondents. According to Halperin, the McCain has 7 houses gaffe is bad… for Obama.
You know that “this is good for John McCain” thing we Democrats have been joking about?
It’s not a joke.
I swear, I would go mad if the blogosphere had [...]

As if it weren’t bad enough that the McCain campaign was poised to hire him, the AP’s Ron Fournier may very well be getting payments from the very same organizations he covers.

Hey, the Democratic convention is coming up… let’s show footage of the 1968 convention, and let’s put on some protesters too (never mind they ignored and ridiculed anti-war protesters in the past). Fair and balanced!

MORE on how John McCain may have been using this fake story for a few years now. Of course, the MSM loves John McCain’s barbecue too much to actually ask him about this.
