NewsMax Headline Replacement Watch
Topic: Newsmax

Somebody over at NewsMax is having quite a time of late stripping the supplied headlines off wire articles and replacing them with biased ones. The latest:

Associated Press: "Al Franken's worth nothing to laugh at."
NewsMax: "Al Franken a Multimillionaire Liberal."

* * *

Associated Press: "Gore kicks off book tour in Calif."
NewsMax: "Al Gore Assaults Reason on Book Tour."

* * *

The folks at the AP can't be too happy about this. And Christopher Ruddy shouldn't be either, if he cares about whether NewsMax is seen as a legitimate, fair news source and not just a conservative hatchet-wielder.
