Media Reality Check
Preparing the Battlefield for a Roberts Ambush?
The three broadcast networks have been mostly silent during the run-up to John Roberts' Senate confirmation hearings, but the Associated Press and big papers like the Washington Post have had stories painting the Supreme Court nominee as growing up in a racist town, a Neanderthal on women's rights, and possibly even a Confederate sympathizer. Could these pre-confirmation potshots be just the opening salvos of a full-scale media war against John Robert?

ABC Pushes Anti-War Propaganda
ABC gave extensive coverage to the anti-war (and anti-Administration) group Gold Star Moms for Peace, but did not report on the President's three-hour meeting with family members of soldiers killed in Iraq. ABC's Dan Harris noted that only 13 percent of Americans want an immediate exit from Iraq, and then showcased former Senator Gary Hart who explained how to build a larger anti-war movement. NBC Today host Matt Lauer interviewed liberal commentator Chris Matthews to determine whether Iraq is another Vietnam. MSNBC's Keith Olbermann labeled FNC's Brit Hume the "worser" person of the week. NBC and CNN both promoted left-wing propaganda about global warming.
