Right-wing activist Robert Knight penned a column for the Washington Times headlined “Obama tears up the Constitution,” in which he accused President Obama of having “compiled a spectacular record of noncompliance with the Constitution” and “failed to execute the laws while using raw, unauthorized power.” But as Media Matters detailed, Knight misleads or is completely wrong on everything from the Defense of Marriage Act to the New Black Panthers to immigration.
So what does WorldNetDaily — which admits that it publishes misinformation — do? It republishes Knight’s column, falsehoods and all.
Then again, WND founder and editor Joseph Farah has admitted that his website publishes misinformation, so it’s really no surprise that it would so blatantly hide the truth in order to advance its right-wing political agenda.
