Rachel Maddow Exposes Fox News’ ‘Bogus’ Coverage Of ACORN - Mediaite - video
 
Using last week’s California attorney general’s report on the ACORN tapes as well as the unedited video Maddow compares the news that was reported, primarily on Fox, but eventually elsewhere also, with what actually happened. Needless to say you could drive a Mac truck through the two.
For example the ACORN employee accused by O’Keefe and Giles (and “evidenced” by the edited tapes) of advising them on how to smuggle prostitutes into the country, actually immediately called the police once the two had left the office.
Side note: Tommy Christopher notes a timeline discrepancy between the attorney general’s report, which says the employee called the police immediately and the the AP’s report last fall which said he waited two days…either way he was fired.
Additionally, the ACORN employee who was apparently encouraging Giles to start a prostitution business? Turns out she was encouraging Giles not to give up looking for financing for housing.

They havent come forward to denounce the right wing militia members who were planning to kill police officers or the members of congress who cheered on protesters that spit on one congressman and insulted others.

You really expect the right wing media to admit to being wrong, manipulated or used? Hell they manipulate the news on a daily basis.

I've not really kept up with that news story, so this isn't a challenge, but a request for information.

Do you have a link where "they" admitted to targeting police officers?

This is basically propaganda bullshit, meant to feed the loony left, just as you are accusing the right being feed red meat by Fox.

Im going by what this article discussed. Seems one of their own admits to it wile denying his part in the plot.

"I would never blindly follow or assist a group who obviously had a different agenda than my own," he said.

"He had no clue these people were doing anything like this, he had no clue," Romick said.

Sickles' wife, Kelly, said Thursday that her husband was with her on a number of the dates the government says her husband was involved with the militia group, including the day their son was born, when she says Sickles was in the hospital with her.

The FBI said it broke up the plot with the help of an undercover agent and informants.
