Jerry Falwell's death, CNN featured "a picture of Falwell and [Adolf] Hitler together" as "kind of their idea of what he [Falwell] ought to be." In fact, the image appeared in archived footage of a demonstration in which protestors held placards featuring the faces of Falwell, Hitler, and other prominent political figures. http://mediamatters.org/items/200705210003 Mon, 21 May 2007 14:56:37 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200704240001 http://mediamatters.org/items/200704240001 Tue, 24 Apr 2007 13:28:00 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200703130009 http://mediamatters.org/items/200703130009 Tue, 13 Mar 2007 16:58:36 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200702280002 While other media outlets, in their coverage of Mitt Romney's presidential campaign, have addressed the longtime evangelical hostility to Romney's Mormon faith, Fox News has largely avoided the subject and has responded to other media coverage of the issue by alleging media bias or, in the case of one guest, accusing liberals of anti-Mormon bigotry. <br /> http://mediamatters.org/items/200702280002 Tue, 27 Feb 2007 19:50:54 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200702270001 http://mediamatters.org/items/200702270001 Mon, 26 Feb 2007 19:06:28 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200611150008 On<em> Fox News Watch</em>, Jim Pinkerton claimed that Nancy Pelosi "is being presented to the American people as this moderate grandmother ... from Baltimore" rather than someone "from San Francisco [who] represents the left wing." In fact, a <em>Media Matters</em> survey showed that Pelosi has been portrayed in the media as a San Francisco liberal much more often than as a grandmother from Baltimore. http://mediamatters.org/items/200611150008 Wed, 15 Nov 2006 13:52:53 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200606270001 On <em>Fox News Watch</em>, <em>Newsday</em> columnist James P. Pinkerton asserted that "the press turned on the Iraq war several years ago" and now chooses to "frame" its coverage of the war in two ways: "One is, the U.S. military is evil" and two, "the U.S. military needs to be carefully restrained with legal rules and procedures." Pinkerton suggested the media portray American servicemen and women as "bad people" and "killers." http://mediamatters.org/items/200606270001 Tue, 27 Jun 2006 12:28:12 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200605080017 Referring to news coverage of the May 1 "Day Without Immigrants" demonstrations on <em>Fox News Watch</em>, <em>Newsday</em> columnist James P. Pinkerton claimed that "[t]he media like brown people, but they like black people more." He then added: "[W]hat they really dislike, of course, is white people." http://mediamatters.org/items/200605080017 Mon, 8 May 2006 18:44:06 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200604050001 Several media figures have misrepresented public opinion polling on immigration issues in order to falsely suggest that the public opposes providing a temporary work program and a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants. In fact, polling has consistently shown that most Americans favor some form of temporary guest worker program or path to citizenship for the illegal immigrants already in the United States. http://mediamatters.org/items/200604050001 Wed, 5 Apr 2006 09:27:06 EST
