Short. Fast.
Is NBC becoming Fox? Or just sloppy...
Tonight on NBC Nightly News, Peter Alexander just did a piece on the misquote by Romney. The Elizabeth Warren quote about building a business much blogged about over the weekend.
What NBC needs to do is cover the actual Warren quote, then compare how Obama and Romney used it.
Sooner, rather than later.
Update, 7:44PM Eastern
- The clip is on the NBC News site.
"On The Trail, A New Attack Line"
- PBS Newshour, in Kwame Holman's briefs, did the same thing.
The mistake is that Obama was paraphrasing Elizabeth Warren. Other journalists and bloggers have covered how Fox News and the GOP did not use either all of Obama's statement, nor did they credit the original.
