We need to win the spin battle now. CNN is already saying
"Rep. John Murtha, D-Pennsylvania, offered the resolution demanding a pullout.", refering to the debated resolution that was just voted down and was written by Rep. Hunter. We cannot allow this spin to take hold.
Write CNN, and demand that they correct this mistake. Keep on the look out for other media outlets spouting this garbage, and feel free to post their contact info here. The foundation of this debate will be set this weekend, and we can't afford to lose.
This is my first diary!
Fox News says
"The GOP-run House was expected to vote Friday to reject the amendment before Congress breaks for Thanksgiving. , refering to Murtha's resolution, which the GOP never intended to bring to the floor.
Contact Fox News to let them know of this error.
ABC News, apparently got it sort of right too. They don't mention it was authored by Republicans, but they don't call it Murtha's.
UPDATE: CNN has fixed their article to actually report the truth. Yay, us! Keep up the fight and keep looking for inaccurate media spin. Thanks for all of the emails.
