“Where’s the Misinformation?”

Do you remember those popular 1980’s Burger King commercials with the old lady and the catch phrase, "Where’s the beef?" Those ads came to mind when reading this June 14, 2006, post by Media Matters, which blares the title, "Lauer joined O’Reilly in serving up misinformation on Today."

The problem: MMatters fails to cite any errors or falsehoods (what we would call "misinformation") anywhere in the post! See for yourself!

MMatters simply takes issue with how Lauer worded his questions to guest Bill O’Reilly. The wording may not have been flattering to Democrats, but there certainly was no "misinformation."

So any unflattering references to Democrats qualify as "conservative misinformation" for Media Matters? Apparently so.
