Right-wing lunatic David Horowitz attacks Media Matters
OMG, this is getting hilarious, Horowitz is in complete meltdown!

http://mediamatters.org/items/200412010006

"David Horowitz, editor in chief of the right-wing website FrontPageMag.com, accused Media Matters for America of "ignoring the actual facts" and "repeat" "slander." His accusation came in response to a November 30 Media Matters item headlined "In retaliation, David Horowitz labeled Al Franken 'racist.'" But Media Matters has documented Horowitz's own extensive record of disregarding facts.

Even Horowitz's December 1 FrontPageMag.com column, in which he leveled his accusation, opened with an outright falsehood: Horowitz asserted that Media Matters has received funding from billionaire philanthropist George Soros. To date, neither Media Matters nor its president and CEO David Brock has received any money from Soros or from any organization with which he is affiliated."

2. "ignoring the actual facts" and "repeat" "slander."
Those words are the exact description of what Horowitz's own FrontPageMag does on a daily basis!

Horowitz is TRULY a fascist, in the real sense of that word.

6. Brock tried to address this today on Franken
but as usual Al monopolized the conversation, so not much light was shed.
