America - Foleygate Repeat of Easongate

Main stream media seem unable or unwilling to learn.

Eason Jordan was fired for making unsubstantiated claims that US troops target jounalists. Bloggers challenged Jordan to provide evidence to back up his claim or resign. He resigned.

Last week I posted about Linda Foley's, President of the Newspaper Guild and Communication Workers of America, repeat of that claim. Now from the people who brought you Easongate.com comes MediaSlander.com, whose initial purpose is to have Foley provide evidence for her claim or resign.

Thanks to Steve of www.WordUnheard.com for the tip.

Media Slander's statement of purpose says in part:

The goal of Media Slander is to hold journalists and bloggers to high ethical standards regarding coverage of the War on Terror and other military-related issues. We plan to achieve this by highlighting bias, rumor and falsehoods that have been creeping into military coverage under the guise of objective news.
