Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama, among other Democrats, have talked about their religious faith and values for years. Several of the Democratic candidates referred explicitly to "values" or "morals" during the June 3 presidential debate, which aired on CNN. <br /> http://mediamatters.org/items/200706060002 Tue, 5 Jun 2007 20:17:09 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200703010008 http://mediamatters.org/items/200703010008 Thu, 1 Mar 2007 15:40:53 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200702160004 http://mediamatters.org/items/200702160004 Fri, 16 Feb 2007 13:27:20 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200701260014 Anderson Cooper, David Gregory, and Soledad O'Brien have all asked Sen. Barack Obama about smears leveled against him, purportedly by his political "opponents" or "enemies." But in each case, they did not name any of these "opponents." Indeed, by framing their questions in terms of political "opponents," they ignored the media's role in promoting these smears, and in some cases originating them. <br /> http://mediamatters.org/items/200701260014 Fri, 26 Jan 2007 18:02:17 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200611060005 http://mediamatters.org/items/200611060005 Mon, 6 Nov 2006 14:46:50 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200610180003 CNN's Soledad O'Brien accused David Kuo, the former deputy director of the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives under President Bush, of writing a "very political book," the timing of which was "[i]nteresting." But O'Brien ignored comments that Kuo and his former boss, John Dilulio, had previously made that are consistent with the claims made in the book. http://mediamatters.org/items/200610180003 Tue, 17 Oct 2006 20:51:37 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200610040018 http://mediamatters.org/items/200610040018 Wed, 4 Oct 2006 19:20:09 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200608100002 During their August 9 coverage of the Connecticut Democratic Senate primary, the three major broadcast networks' morning news programs interviewed Sen. Joseph Lieberman but failed to host the winner, Ned Lamont, or any of his representatives. Additionally, NBC's <em>Today</em> and CBS' <em>The Early Show</em> aired twice as much footage of Lieberman's statements following the election as they ran of Lamont's statements. http://mediamatters.org/items/200608100002 Thu, 10 Aug 2006 12:07:16 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200606140011 Following the death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the news that Karl Rove would not be indicted in the CIA leak case, and other events, media figures have declared that the Bush administration is experiencing "a surge of momentum." But such assertions ignore the White House's numerous current problems. http://mediamatters.org/items/200606140011 Wed, 14 Jun 2006 17:50:00 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200605010005 Following the White House Correspondents' dinner, numerous news outlets trumpeted President Bush's performance at the event, but entirely ignored the scathing routine delivered by the night's featured entertainer, Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert. In his act, Colbert mocked the White House's current woes, slammed a wide range of Bush administration policies, and lampooned the mainstream media. http://mediamatters.org/items/200605010005 Mon, 1 May 2006 15:54:08 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200602240001 In reporting on the United Arab Emirates (UAE) ports controversy, NBC's Brian Williams failed to inform viewers that Dubai Ports World is owned by the government of Dubai, a member of the UAE. NBC's David Gregory later indicated that the company is state-owned but entirely ignored the significance of this. In doing so, they obscured the source of the controversy surrounding the Bush administration's approval of a deal to grant the company control of six U.S. ports. http://mediamatters.org/items/200602240001 Fri, 24 Feb 2006 10:09:53 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200602220004 CNN anchors and reporters repeatedly described Dubai Ports World -- the company set to assume control of six U.S. ports -- as an "Arab company" or a "Dubai-based company." However, in describing the company as such, these reporters are ignoring a key factor in the bipartisan controversy surrounding the takeover deal, which is that the company is a state-run business in the United Arab Emirates. http://mediamatters.org/items/200602220004 Wed, 22 Feb 2006 13:47:01 EST
