Fox distorts evidence to invent new White House/artists scandal

SUMMARY: A FoxNews.com article distorted a report about a meeting Obama administration officials had with artists, falsely claiming that the report indicated that the White House "convened" the meeting in order to "push the president's domestic agenda." In fact, it reportedly was the artists involved -- not the White House -- that originally requested the meeting, and the Fox News article itself stated that one of the co-authors of the report that the article cited "said there was absolutely no pressure on any of the artists to follow a political line."
