<title>Ignoring reversal, O&#x27;Donnell said McCain &#x22;believes he&#x27;s stronger among Hispanic-Americans, especially because of his immigration stance&#x22;  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200806080001</link>
<description>NBC&#x27;s Kelly O&#x27;Donnell asserted that Sen. John McCain &#x22;believes he&#x27;s stronger&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x22; &#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;than Sen. Barack Obama&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E; &#x22;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;among Hispanic-Americans, especially because of his immigration stance, which nearly killed him in the Republican Party.&#x22; But O&#x27;Donnell did not note that McCain reversed himself on the issue of immigration; he now says that &#x22;we&#x27;ve got to secure the borders first&#x22; and that he &#x22;would not&#x22; support his own comprehensive immigration reform legislation.  </description>

<title>NBC&#x27;s O&#x27;Donnell uncritically aired McCain&#x27;s misleading claim that Clinton and Obama are &#x22;going to raise your taxes by thousands of dollars a year&#x22;  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200804160012</link>
<description>In a report on Sen. John McCain&#x27;s economic speech, NBC&#x27;s Kelly O&#x27;Donnell aired a clip of McCain saying of Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama: &#x22;They&#x27;re going to raise your taxes by thousands of dollars a year.&#x22; However, O&#x27;Donnell did not note that Clinton and Obama have proposed tax cuts for middle- and low-income Americans.  </description>

<title>Kelly O&#x27;Donnell highlighted McCain&#x27;s overseas trip &#x22;to pump his international image,&#x22; ignored misstatements, fundraiser  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200804020006</link>
<description>In a report on Sen. John McCain, NBC News&#x27; Kelly O&#x27;Donnell referred to McCain&#x27;s &#x22;statesman-in-waiting trip overseas last month to pump up his international image,&#x22; but did not note that, during the trip, McCain made the admittedly false claim, more than once, that &#x22;Al Qaeda is going back into Iran and receiving training and are coming back into Iraq.&#x22; O&#x27;Donnell also did not mention that the trip included a fundraiser in London.  </description>

<title>Media uncritically report McCain surprised by Cunningham&#x27;s remarks despite Cunningham&#x27;s history of using Obama&#x27;s middle name  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200802270012</link>
<description>NBC&#x27;s Kelly O&#x27;Donnell and CNN&#x27;s John King asserted that Sen. John McCain was surprised by conservative radio talk-show host Bill Cunningham&#x27;s controversial remarks about Sen. Barack Obama at a February 26 McCain rally, failing to note that Cunningham has previously referred to Obama as &#x22;Barack Hussein Obama&#x22; and &#x22;Barack Mohammed Hussein Obama.&#x22; Fox News&#x27; Molly Henneberg suggested McCain could not have expected Cunningham to refer to Obama&#x27;s middle name, even though Cunningham did just that on Fox News a month ago.  </description>

<title>Following other media outlets, NBC, CBS both uncritically air McCain&#x27;s false, misleading attacks on Obama  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200802220013</link>
<description>Both the &#x3C;em&#x3E;CBS Evening News&#x3C;/em&#x3E; and NBC&#x27;s &#x3C;em&#x3E;Nightly News&#x3C;/em&#x3E; repeated accusations by Sen. John McCain regarding Sen. Barack Obama&#x27;s statements on Pakistan and his commitment to use public financing in the general election, without offering a response from Obama or assessing the accuracy of McCain&#x27;s allegations.  </description>

<title>MSNBC&#x27;s Robach, Witt aired McCain ad attacking &#x22;Woodstock  Concert Museum&#x22; earmark, but didn&#x27;t note his missed vote  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200801170008</link>
<description>On &#x3C;em&#x3E;MSNBC Live&#x3C;/em&#x3E;, Amy Robach and Alex Witt separately aired a campaign ad from Republican presidential candidate John McCain attacking Sen. Hillary Clinton&#x27;s support for a $1 million earmark for a museum at the site of the 1969 Woodstock Festival in New   York. But Robach, Witt, NBC News White House correspondent Kelly O&#x27;Donnell and &#x3C;em&#x3E;Congressional Quarterly&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x27;s Jonathan Allen all failed to note that McCain had skipped the vote on removing the earmark. Robach and Witt also falsely referred to the advertisement as &#x22;new.&#x22;  </description>

<title>Media failed to  resolve question  of  which  members  of  Congress  Freedom&#x27;s  Watch  ads  are  targeting</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200708240012</link>
<description>In reports on a recent advertisement buy by Freedom&#x27;s Watch in support of the Iraq 
war, media reports have 
failed to resolve the question of which members of Congress the ad buys are 
targeting, despite the apparent newsworthiness of the issue. For instance, 
&#x3C;em&#x3E;The Washington Post&#x3C;/em&#x3E; suggested that the ad 
campaign 
is 
an 
attack 
on 
Democrats, 
a 
suggestion repeated 
by 
&#x3C;em&#x3E;Time&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x27;s Karen Tumulty; other reports have not even mentioned the issue; while still others have asserted that the ads target both Democrats and Republicans. However, according to analyses by war opponents, the buys 
target mainly Republicans, a charge Freedom&#x27;s Watch called &#x22;propaganda by our 
enemies.&#x22;</description>

<title>Media reports on  Freedom&#x27;s Watch advertisements don&#x27;t note  misinformation</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200708240001</link>
<description>Media 
outlets including CNN, NBC, &#x3C;em&#x3E;The New York 
Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E;, and the &#x3C;em&#x3E;Los Angeles&#x3C;/em&#x3E; &#x3C;em&#x3E;Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; reported on a recent advertisement 
buy in support of the war in Iraq but ignored that two of the four advertisements link the 
Iraq war to 9-11.</description>

<title>Media  ignore Rove&#x27;s leak, White House falsehoods, Bush&#x27;s promise to fire  leaker</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200708130005</link>
<description>Media outlets reporting on Karl Rove&#x27;s resignation omitted key facts in their discussion 
of Rove&#x27;s involvement in the leak of Valerie Plame&#x27;s identity -- that Rove in fact 
leaked Plame&#x27;s 
identity to columnist Robert Novak and another reporter, that then-White House 
spokesman Scott McClellan initially denied that Rove was involved in the leak, 
and that Rove would not have been able to leave &#x22;on his own terms&#x22; had the White 
House fulfilled a pledge to fire anyone &#x22;involved&#x22; in the Plame 
leak.
