NARAL NOT ONLY LIED IN ITS AD, IT LIED ABOUT ITS PLACEMENT

By now, most folks have heard of the atrocious anti-Roberts NARAL ad that was fisked by FactCheck.org and proven to be totally devoid of truth. Captain Ed points out that now the Washington Post has run a correction acknowledging that NARAL's assertion that FoxNews Channel had agreed to air the ad is also totally false.

"They wanted to show that their ad passed muster across the political spectrum by saying that FNC had also approved the ad for airtime. Their willingness to use lies to combat the Roberts nomination should prove instructive for not just reporters who rely on their information, but for those who need to measure NARAL's credibility while pondering NARAL's arguments."

What NARAL seems to fail to grasp is that their enablers in the MSM no longer control the flow of information to the public. They can't get away with this crap anymore, but they're still trying. Score another one for the blogosphere!
