A March 13 WorldNetDaily article touts the “stunner” of a purportedly “balanced” news report by a CBS affiliate in Phoenix on the press conference for the “investigation” by Joe Arpaio’s cold case posse into President Obama’s “eligibility.”
But if you watch the segment, it’s clear that it’s slanted in favor of uncritically presenting only what the posse concluded, and there’s no “balance” whatsoever in the form of telling the other side of the story, which is that birthers are pushing discredited conspiracy theories.
Funny idea of “balance” there, WND.
WND also presents as a “stunning challenge” birther posse leader Mike Zullo’s claim that anyone who thinks the posse’s conclusions are nothing but “B.S.” should prove it.
But as WND should know by now — but won’t tell its readers about — the posse’s claims have been discredited. WND doesn’t actually care about “balance.”
