MediaMatters via Daily Kos:
CNN correspondant Michael Ware was baselessly accused of "heckling" John McCain at the press conference regarding his recent visit to Iraq. While it seems it would certainly be possible to have heckled McCain over his statements about the "safety" and "progress" in Iraq when he toured with an army regiment and body armor, in fact Ware wasn't even able to ask a question at the press conference, let alone harass the speaker. Despite video evidence that backs up Ware's denial of the heckling, Drudge continues to run the story and it has been picked up the The Washington Times, Power Line, Michelle Malkin, and Wizbang. So in the face of all evidence to the contrary, Ware will now be labeled an unreliable, liberally-biased hack by the Fox News voting bloc and the many Americans who can't be bothered to distinguish truth from bullshit.
And so it goes.
