Distorting article, Fox Nation claims “Pelosi Requires All Homes to Meet Eco-Standards Before ... Sold”

The Fox Nation linked to a CNSNews.com article under the headline, “Pelosi Requires All Homes to Meet Eco-Standards Before They Can Be Sold” -- a claim not supported by the CNS article.

On July 1, the Fox Nation linked to an article from the conservative news organization CNSNews.com under the headline, "Pelosi Requires All Homes to Meet Eco-Standards Before They Can Be Sold" -- a claim not supported by the CNS article. CNSNews.com's Matt Cover reported that the American Clean Energy and Security Act recently passed by the House of Representatives “contains a new federal policy that residential, commercial, and government buildings be retrofitted to increase energy efficiency, leaving it up to the states to figure out exactly how to do that.” Cover then theorized that this policy “means that homeowners, for example, could be required to retrofit their homes to meet federal 'green' guidelines in order to sell their homes.”

As Media Matters for America has documented, the Fox Nation has frequently featured false and baseless assertions in its headlines.
