So?

WND has an odd habit of simply making shit up.
They lost their ass in a libel suit, that Joseph Farah bragged they were
going to take all the way to the Supreme Court.
The day the suit was to start, they settled out of court for millions.

Lately, Joseph Farah himself is simply making up out of whole cloth more
and more hysteria about Obama.

Of course, you're well acquainted with hysteria.

AIM?
"Accuracy" in Media, that is still looking for commies under their beds?

Human Events.
More right-wing drivel.

You don't see how this all feeds on each other.
Someone, probably gossip-spreader the Sludge Misreport, runs a rumor.
WND or AIM or whatnot embellishes the rumor.
(Ever play the game, "Telephone?")

Soon the rumor, even AFTER it's debunked, is making the rounds.
The old rumor about "Clinton's staff trashed the White House offices"
just a few weeks ago was dredged up out of the sewer again.

 RS>> Has Harry Reid?


 TR> Probably.


 RS>> Has Barack Obama?


 TR> Might.

They might also admit the government is hiding flying saucers.

Actual statements they have said in support of a return of the Fairness
Doctrine?
Zero.
