BRAD BLOG: Wingnuts, 'News' Sites Fall Hook, Line & Sinker for ACVR Scam!
Edited on Wed Aug-03-05 04:27 PM by BradBlog
Rightwingers, 'News' Sites Fall Hook, Line & Sinker for ACVR Scam Report
Blogs and 'Journalists'Alike Fall Over Themselves to Cover Phony GOP 'Voting Rights' Group Propaganda

(6 or 7 of you may need to help correct the historical record!)

From the Philadelphia Enquirer to News Channel 5 in Cleveland. They've all fallen uncritically for the ACVR garbage.

We'd expect it from the wingnut blogs out there like "Captain's Quarters", "Pardon my English", "Betsy Newmark", "WizBang", "The Anchoress" and "Mr. Remainder" (all of whom couldn't wait to re-type the nonsense without taking even thirty seconds to do a Google seach on the ACVR democracy-hating scam artists). But several in the "news" media faired as poorly as the Rightwing bloggers.

Surprised?...

1. Oh, this is too cool....
It's likely you'll be able to find more Rightwing nut jobs out there who couldn't wait to run the phony propaganda issued yesterday by the sham "American Center for Voting Rights" than we have. But as expected, the same knuckleheads who called for Dan Rather's head for shoddy reporting and who choke themselves every day claiming "Liberal Media Bias!" have been all to pleased to run with the garbage that the ACVR released yesterday.

<snip>

Then there is the Cybercast News Service which, as expected, ran the ACVR crap virtually as is. CNS, of course, is a phony Rightwing extremist "News" organization who actually covered the ACVR scam after we broke the story here originally. But after the reporter who was assigned to write it filed a report which backed up the original BRAD BLOG reporting, her story was re-written so that she didn't even recognize it when it was posted online to CNS (and subsequently carried at phony GOP "News" sites like GOPUSA, Townhall.com, etc.)

2. Report Updated...
To call out a few other wingnut sites (apparently there *at least* some 26 of them who fell for it!) and even recognize one or two intellectually honest rightwing sites in the bargain!

Please make noise with this report! It's important to correct the record that these ACVR snakeoil salesmen are so adeptly spreading around the country!
