<blockquote>AP writer Douglass Daniel was enjoying the moderate Republican (and Obama Republican) response to conservatives on the Sunday talk shows.</p></blockquote>
<p>How does Graham know the AP writer enjoyed anything? The writer never says anything of the sort in <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090525/ap_on_re_us/us_republican_ruckus;_ylt=Ajt9yVj7BCBoYphmZuLNWytAw_IE;_ylu=X3oDMTM0OW42YXZvBGFzc2V0Ay9hcC8yMDA5MDUyNS9hcF9vbl9yZV91cy91c19yZXB1YmxpY2FuX3J1Y2t1cwRjcG9zAzUEcG9zAzUEc2VjA3luX3RvcF9zdG9yaWVzBHNsawNwb3dlbGxmaXJlc2I-">the story</a>, and Graham links to no supporting materials. This is part of the reason people in journalism have a hard time taking MRC seriously vs Media Matters, FAIR, and others. MRC is emotion-based, all about imputing feelings and notions to reporters in order to further their mythology about liberal bias. MRC very rarely &#8211; if ever &#8211; refutes actual facts.</p>
<p>ALSO: Congrats to MRC on their <a href="http://www.mrc.org/public/default.aspx">new website</a>. Imitation is surely the sincerest form of <a href="http://mediamatters.org/">flattery</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Newsbusters headline: <a href="http://newsbusters.org/blogs/tim-graham/2009/02/22/wapo-hypes-homecoming-drag-queen-george-mason-glittering-moment-inclusiv">&#8220;WaPo Hypes Homecoming Drag Queen at George Mason as &#8216;Glittering Moment of Inclusiveness&#8217;&#8221;</a></p>
<p>The Washington Post sub-headline in print: &#8220;Not Everyone Is Celebrating Glittering Moment of Inclusiveness&#8221;</p>
<p>So the Post headline is discussing the fact that not everyone is wild about the drag queen, and yet the Newsbusters version is that the Post is hyping it as a positive thing. How does Newsbusters reconcile this b.s.?</p>
<p>The real issue here is that the people at Newsbusters (and Media Research Center, who backs them) are so insecure in their sexuality that they don&#8217;t want the newspaper reporting on an event about a drag queen. It&#8217;s not that they seriously have an issue with the paper&#8217;s reporting &#8212; they just don&#8217;t want the story reported.</p>
