Barack Obama attended a madrassa as a boy and that this information had originated from Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's camp. With the aid of the conservative media, InsightMag.com's anonymously sourced report turned into 11 days of baseless accusations against two leading contenders for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination. <br /> http://mediamatters.org/items/200701300007 Tue, 30 Jan 2007 15:14:03 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200606260009 Charles Krauthammer dubiously suggested that the United States had successfully completed "seven out of eight" tests of a missile defense system capable of intercepting the intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) North Korea is reportedly preparing to test-fire. But the system Krauthammer specifically referred to is not designed to intercept ICBMs. Additionally, John Fund dubiously claimed that if North Korea test-fires its ICBM, the United States has "a better than 50-50 chance" of shooting it down; in fact, the system Fund was apparently alluding to has been tested only under highly artificial conditions. http://mediamatters.org/items/200606260009 Mon, 26 Jun 2006 19:00:58 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200606050009 On <em>Inside Washington</em>, host Gordon Peterson claimed that Americans think Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is "too liberal," and "don't trust her," essentially misrepresenting the results of a May 15 ABC News/<em>Washington Post</em> poll on Clinton, a presumptive 2008 presidential candidate. A majority of those polled said Clinton is, in fact, "honest and trustworthy," while a minority thought she is "too liberal," with a majority saying her views are "about right." http://mediamatters.org/items/200606050009 Mon, 5 Jun 2006 18:20:13 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200605170002 On <em>Inside Washington</em>, <em>Newsweek</em> assistant managing editor Evan Thomas claimed that "[y]ou cannot have an open society and an effective spy service." http://mediamatters.org/items/200605170002 Wed, 17 May 2006 11:47:51 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200602280002 Several journalists and media figures have taken to describing Democratic criticism of the Bush administration's approval of a deal allowing state-owned Dubai Ports World to assume control of six major U.S. ports as an attempt by Democrats to move "to the right" of President Bush and Republicans in Congress on issues of national security. In fact, some of the Democrats who have most strongly denounced the deal have been among the most active proponents of enhancing port security since the 9-11 terrorist attacks. http://mediamatters.org/items/200602280002 Tue, 28 Feb 2006 12:28:34 EST
