Beyond Meet the Press
In my last post, I showed how the Rocky failed to provide readers with facts essential to understanding a quote from Dick Wadhams regarding an upcoming debate on Meet the Press.
Colorado Media Matters pointed out Monday that the Rocky has developed a bit of a pattern of letting Wadhams make false allegations, without questioning him adequately or setting the record straight.
Here’s the summary of the CMM item:
Reporting on August presidential campaign donations, the Rocky Mountain News continued its practice of quoting critical or inflammatory remarks about Democrats from Colorado Republican Party chair Dick Wadhams while providing no response from Democrats. The News quoted Wadhams as referencing Gov. Sarah Palin in stating that Democrats are “repulsed by the notion that an articulate, competent, successful woman could be running on the Republican ticket.”
