John McCain said "he favored the creation of an international repository where all spent nuclear fuel could eventually be sent," which Lake described as a "position that could win him votes in Nevada." However, Lake did not note that McCain has previously supported storing nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain in Nevada. http://mediamatters.org/items/200805290005 Thu, 29 May 2008 15:50:22 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200802070005 Numerous print publications -- including <em>The New York Times</em>, <em>The Washington Post</em>, and the <em>Los Angeles Times</em> -- continued a longstanding practice of referring to Sen. John McCain as a "maverick" in their coverage of the February 5 presidential primaries and caucuses. http://mediamatters.org/items/200802070005 Thu, 7 Feb 2008 16:42:24 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200712190012 A <em>New York Sun</em> article stated that at the October 30 Democratic presidential debate, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton was "questioned about language in the 2002 letter that discussed the possibility of withholding some records about the former first lady." In fact, in the debate question, Tim Russert falsely claimed that the letter "specifically ask[ed] that any communication between you and the president not be made available to the public until 2012" before asking Clinton, "Would you lift that ban?" http://mediamatters.org/items/200712190012 Wed, 19 Dec 2007 17:24:39 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200710040009 A <em>New York Sun </em>editorial claimed that Sen. Barack Obama and "many Democrats" advocate that the United States "abandon economic sanctions" against Iran. In fact, Obama introduced the Iran Sanctions Enabling Act on May 17, which would "authorize State and local governments to direct divestiture from, and prevent investment in, companies with investments of $20,000,000 or more in Iran's energy sector." http://mediamatters.org/items/200710040009 Thu, 4 Oct 2007 15:04:26 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200708090003 http://mediamatters.org/items/200708090003 Thu, 9 Aug 2007 15:51:50 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200704200005 http://mediamatters.org/items/200704200005 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 14:25:04 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200703210015 http://mediamatters.org/items/200703210015 Wed, 21 Mar 2007 18:51:34 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200703090010 http://mediamatters.org/items/200703090010 Fri, 9 Mar 2007 18:56:30 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200703080004 http://mediamatters.org/items/200703080004 Thu, 8 Mar 2007 13:55:13 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200702230005 http://mediamatters.org/items/200702230005 Fri, 23 Feb 2007 13:10:19 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200701300006 http://mediamatters.org/items/200701300006 Tue, 30 Jan 2007 14:11:55 EST http://mediamatters.org/items/200611010006 In a recent article, <em>The</em> <em>New York Sun</em> uncritically reported the false assertion by Rep. James Walsh's campaign that a Majority Action ad claims that Walsh "favors a ban on stem cell research." Similarly, the <em>National Journal</em> reported Walsh's claim that the ad is "false and misleading," without noting that Walsh in fact opposes federal funding for embryonic stem cell research. http://mediamatters.org/items/200611010006 Wed, 1 Nov 2006 12:01:27 EST
