<title>O&#x27;Reilly falsely claimed ACLU lawsuit against warrantless wiretapping tried &#x22;to overcome&#x22; congressional statute  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200802200007</link>
<description>Bill O&#x27;Reilly falsely asserted that the ACLU&#x27;s lawsuit over the Bush administration&#x27;s warrantless domestic wiretapping program &#x22;was basically an attempt ... to try to overcome a law which was passed by Congress, through the courts.&#x22; In fact, the ACLU&#x27;s lawsuit claimed, in part, that the program was in violation of several, as O&#x27;Reilly put it, &#x22;law[s] ... passed by Congress,&#x22; including the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, and asked that the courts enforce those laws by ordering the program shut down.      </description>

<title>Carlson attacked ACLU for not &#x22;standing up for Rush Limbaugh&#x22; -- but ACLU took Limbaugh&#x27;s side</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200605020013</link>
<description>Tucker Carlson attacked the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) for &#x22;not standing up for Rush Limbaugh&#x22; while he was being investigated for allegations of committing fraud to obtain prescription painkillers. But in January 2004, the ACLU filed a friend-of-the-court brief in Limbaugh&#x27;s case protesting the state of Florida&#x27;s seizure of Limbaugh&#x27;s medical records as a violation of his right to privacy.</description>
