MSNBC's Gregory reported Palin quote on Obama "palling around with terrorists" -- but not her distortion of the NY Times article she cited to make that claim
Summary: MSNBC's David Gregory reported Gov. Sarah Palin's assertion that Sen. Barack Obama has been "palling around with terrorists" without noting Palin's distortion of The New York Times article she used to make her claim, or that the Obama campaign issued a statement rebutting the claim.

1. It is not the media's job to fact check.

Their job is to regurgitate one party's talking points unchallenged at every opportunity. When cornered they will equate outright lies and total idiocy with reasoned documented arguments.

Keating 5: relevant and factual.

Palling around with terrorists: outright lies and total idiocy.
