Topic: Media Research Center
Brent Bozell was a veritable font of misinformation in a Sept. 11 appearance on "Fox & Friends":
- He baselessly claimed that "If you go to America and visit America, there are women all over America who are outraged" by Barack Obama's "lipstick comment. In fact, there's little actual evidence that the purported outrage extends past anyone who's not on the McCain campaign payroll (and their media apologists, like Bozell).
- He called Chris Matthews "left-wing" when he knows that's not the case.
- He called Rachel Maddow "Rachel Mandow," apparently sharing colleague Tim Graham's skeeviness toward non-heterosexuals.
And, of course, Bozell's appearance follows the template: he appeared solo and isn't identified as a conservative.
