John McCain is reluctant to discuss his experience as a prisoner of war in Vietnam. In fact, as Media <em>Matters for America</em> has documented, McCain has repeatedly highlighted that experience. http://mediamatters.org/items/200805090011 Fri, 9 May 2008 19:36:15 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200804150001 On <em>Studio B</em>, after Dan Gerstein noted that Sen. John McCain "confused Sunni and Shia," Shepard Smith asserted, "[I]t's not as if he misspoke three times about the exact same thing, about gunfire in Bosnia." In fact, McCain made the admittedly false claim that Iranian operatives were training Al Qaeda for fighting in Iraq three times over the course of two days. http://mediamatters.org/items/200804150001 Tue, 15 Apr 2008 11:54:42 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200803260004 On Fox News, Republican strategist Andrea Tantaros repeated a long-debunked media falsehood, asserting, "[W]e saw with Al Gore -- he said, you know, he invented the Internet." But Gore did not say he "invented the Internet"; in an interview on CNN, he said: "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet." http://mediamatters.org/items/200803260004 Wed, 26 Mar 2008 14:43:32 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200803210005 Echoing the assertion that Sen. John McCain simply "misspoke" when he falsely claimed during a March 18 press conference that Iran is training Al Qaeda, Fox News' Shepard Smith said, "I mean, as much as these people talk, and ad-lib and live speeches and all the rest, slip-ups like that can happen." In fact, McCain had previously made the same misstatement to radio host Hugh Hewitt and did so more than once during the press conference. http://mediamatters.org/items/200803210005 Fri, 21 Mar 2008 13:54:45 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200610310002 http://mediamatters.org/items/200610310002 Mon, 30 Oct 2006 19:23:17 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200610030002 Shepard Smith falsely suggested that the word "sick" was used repeatedly by a page to describe sexually explicit instant messages allegedly sent by former Rep. Mark Foley rather than less explicit emails that House GOP leaders have characterized simply as "overly friendly." In fact, an underage page described as "sick, sick, sick" the emails to which the House leadership had access nearly a year ago. http://mediamatters.org/items/200610030002 Tue, 3 Oct 2006 11:09:27 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200607130010 In announcing that Joseph Wilson and Valerie Plame had filed a lawsuit against Dick Cheney, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, and Karl Rove, Fox News host Shepard Smith uncritically stated that Robert Novak "was on this network yesterday saying there was no concerted campaign to out Plame as a way of punishing her husband." But Smith omitted special counsel Patrick J. Fitzgerald's findings that a "concerted action" by "multiple people in the White House" had been intended to "discredit, punish or seek revenge against" Wilson. http://mediamatters.org/items/200607130010 Thu, 13 Jul 2006 18:30:08 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200605080009 <em>Weekly Standard</em> editor William Kristol offered different explanations for why Porter Goss resigned as CIA director. He first said that Goss's resignation could be related to "some internal problem at the agency" and an unfolding "scandal, conceivably involving an associate of Goss's." Two days later, Kristol failed to mention the "scandal" as a possible reason for Goss's resignation, instead claiming that National Intelligence director John Negroponte "wanted him gone." http://mediamatters.org/items/200605080009 Mon, 8 May 2006 16:04:15 EST
