Fox News reports what Freeper Ambrose Uncovered (Re:NYT fake sources)
Foxnews ^ | 25 Feb 2004 | Fox News

Posted on 02/25/2004 3:41:55 PM PST by Rokke

Tonight on the Grapevine, Foxnews discussed CBS News reporting on the "massive" conservative revolt against Bush, despite their own polling results which showed Bush with overwhelming Republican support. The question was then asked, "Where did CBS get the idea the conservatives were rebelling? The answer...from the New York Times." They then went on to discuss Ambrose's (they didn't credit him unfortunately) discovery that the NYT's used the same source calling him first a Republican and then two weeks later an independent to support their claim that conservatives were ditching Bush.

Nice job Ambrose. You didn't get the credit on Foxnews, but we know where the best investigative reporting comes from.

Good job Ambrose. I sent the other thread with your findings and Mr Smiths findings to Hannity, Rush and FOx.

Of course, Ambrose did get credit from Andrew Sullivan and James Taranto - Best of the Web.

Great work!

They obviously ran across a couple of the libertarians here on FR.

Naw, they're people brainwashed by listening to too many Moby albums. Here, I'll activate another one:

The woods are lovely, dark and deep
But I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep
And miles to go before I sleep

Here is the original link:
http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1082935/posts

Later picked up by InstaPundit and Mickey Kaus (they gave credit). Glenn Reynolds then forwarded it on to the Columbia School of Journalism Review (I think), which forced the NY Times to issue a correct.

I love the Internet. They would get away with these lies just a few short years ago.
