In a Nov. 14 NewsBusters post, the Capital Research Center’s Matthew Vadum bashes ABC for waiting until after the election to take “a fairly hard-hitting look at terrorist William Ayers, the would-be mass murderer, who helped to launch the career of then-Illinois state senate candidate Barack Obama.”
But Vadum has nothing to brag about on that subject: He appeared at least twice in the month before the election on the radio show of unrepentant domestic terrorist — and would-be mass murderer, given that he plotted to blow up the Brookings Institution — G. Gordon Liddy.
Did Vadum confront Liddy about his history of murder and bombing plots and his ties to John McCain? We suspect not — his agenda was to give ACORN a “beating” (and given Vadum’s history, it was likely a factually inaccurate one) and to discuss “financial affirmative action,” whatever that is.
