<title>Conservative pundits made wildly wrong claims about how Iraq would turn out -- what are they saying now about the Middle East?</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200607270007</link>
<description>Numerous conservative pundits offered highly optimistic predictions about the U.S. invasion of Iraq regarding the conflict&#x27;s duration, difficulty, and human and financial costs -- nearly all of which have proven to be wrong. But rather than hold these &#x22;Pollyanna pundits&#x22; accountable for their past misjudgments, the media have again provided a platform for their views about the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah. And echoing their rhetoric on Iraq, these conservative pundits have advocated further military action by the United States and its allies.</description>

<title>Boot repeated false, misleading claims on NSA domestic spying</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200605190002</link>
<description>In his &#x3C;em&#x3E;Los Angeles Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; column, Max Boot mischaracterized the opposition to the Bush administration&#x27;s warrantless domestic surveillance programs, offered a misleading defense of the National Security Agency&#x27;s reported call-tracking operation, and falsely claimed that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act impeded a pre-9-11 terror investigation.</description>

<title>Boot repeated dubious claim that secret NSA program led to arrest of Iyman Faris</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200601190006</link>
<description>&#x3C;em&#x3E;Los Angeles Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; columnist Max Boot claimed that the National Security Agency&#x27;s (NSA) warrantless domestic surveillance program led to the arrest of Al Qaeda accomplice Iyman Faris. But contrary to Boot&#x27;s assertion, a &#x3C;em&#x3E;New York Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; report indicated that information gleaned from the NSA eavesdropping program did not play &#x22;a significant role&#x22; in Faris&#x27;s capture.</description>
