SUMMARY: A Washington Post article noted Sen. John McCain's "criticisms of Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell as 'agents of intolerance' during the 2000 Republican primaries" without also noting that McCain has since said he no longer believed Falwell was an "agent of intolerance." The article also referred to "the high-profile controversy stirred up by Obama's former pastor at Trinity United Church of Christ, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr." without mentioning controversies involving two pastors who endorsed McCain.
