John McCain "has been at odds with his own party for years on issues like immigration, campaign finance reform, and global warming," without noting that McCain said on January 30 that he would no longer support his own comprehensive immigration reform bill if it came up for a vote in the Senate and now says that "we've got to secure the borders first." http://mediamatters.org/items/200805160003 Fri, 16 May 2008 14:14:28 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200805140004 A week after echoing the myth invoked by the Bush administration that there was a link between the September 11 attacks and Saddam Hussein's Iraq, Republican media consultant and CNN political contributor Alex Castellanos stated that if Sen.

John McCain's "war record and straight-talking approach could make him appealing to many working-class men," an assertion repeated by Jack Cafferty on <em>The Situation Room</em>. Kaufman and Cafferty join a long list of media outlets that have adopted McCain's self-characterization as a "straight-talker," despite repeated falsehoods by McCain, as well as his stark inconsistencies on numerous issues, including the Iraq war, immigration, and tax cuts. http://mediamatters.org/items/200802220004 Fri, 22 Feb 2008 15:44:57 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200801220005 CNN's John King, Wolf Blitzer, and Jack Cafferty all mischaracterized Rudy Giuliani's presidential campaign strategy in the early states, repeating the media myth that he chose not to compete in Iowa and New Hampshire.
