So, Do You Like Bush or Not? It's getting hard to exaggerate the left-wing rantings of MSNBC host Keith Olbermann.

The Hillary Whitewash Continues

November 8th, 2007 10:39 AM

ABC News Using Faux Gay Couples for TV Special on Homophobia

November 6th, 2007 6:02 PM
It's arguably not as explosive as rigging trucks to explode in vintage "Dateline NBC" fashion but it seems ABC News may be using phony gay couples to gin up an incendiary story that plays on the media's preconceived storyline about intolerance and "homophobia" in conservative parts of America, particularly the South. Here's an excerpt from Michelle Malkin: When you don’t feel like covering the…
