Barack Obama, but did not mention that Obama responded to Farrakhan's remarks with a statement noting that "I have been ... a consistent denunciator of Louis Farrakhan." http://mediamatters.org/items/200802260008 Tue, 26 Feb 2008 18:52:50 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200801160007 On <em>Hannity &amp; Colmes</em>, Dick Morris claimed that the Federal Election Commission "won't let us run" <em>Hillary: The Movie</em>, a film about Sen. Hillary Clinton, "in movie theaters," adding that "[t]he Clinton appointees [on the FEC] are blocking it." But David Bossie, the film's executive producer, was recently quoted as saying, "I can put it in theaters, I just can't let anybody know it's there," referring to an FEC requirement that Citizens United, which released the film, comply with disclosure requirements under campaign finance law to advertise the film. http://mediamatters.org/items/200801160007 Wed, 16 Jan 2008 17:27:29 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200801020003 Referring to a video clip of John Edwards discussing campaign finances at an appearance in Emmetsburg, Iowa, Republican pollster Frank Luntz stated: "But the problem with Edwards is, whenever he brings up money, people remember how wealthy he is, and they have a hard time listening to him complain about other candidates spending money when he himself is worth dozens and dozens of millions of dollars." But Edwards did not "bring[] up money" during his appearance in Emmetsburg; rather, he was responding to a question about campaign finances from an attendee at the event. <br /> http://mediamatters.org/items/200801020003 Wed, 2 Jan 2008 15:38:13 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200710190007 Discussing Graeme Frost and his family on <em>Hannity &amp; Colmes</em>, Rush Limbaugh claimed, "I never once attacked this family. I attacked the Democrats for exploiting them. I attacked the Democrats for putting lies into the head of a 12-year-old -- a 12-year-old they send out before microphones and cameras to sit there and say," and mimicking Graeme's voice, continued, " 'I only want health care for the rest of American children like I got, and George Bush is against it.' The 12-year-old can't write that garbage!" http://mediamatters.org/items/200710190007 Fri, 19 Oct 2007 16:33:46 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200707260007 http://mediamatters.org/items/200707260007 Thu, 26 Jul 2007 16:22:54 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200702060014 http://mediamatters.org/items/200702060014 Tue, 6 Feb 2007 18:05:11 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200606150004 Fox News host Alan Colmes noted that the Bush administration failed to eliminate former Al Qaeda leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi before the start of the Iraq war, despite having had at least three opportunities to do so. <em>Media Matters</em> previously documented that coverage of al-Zarqawi's June 8 death on major cable channels and the broadcast networks neglected to mention reports from 2004 that Zaraqwi could have been eliminated much earlier. http://mediamatters.org/items/200606150004 Thu, 15 Jun 2006 15:48:09 EST
