I'm not sure how to do a posting on my own, but I guess mentioning this here is the appropriate place:
I think FR folks need to call or email ABC news to complain. Imagine that, having to complain to a media organization! Ha ha. Anyway, during their 6:30 AM ET radio news break, ABC referred to the Swift Vet ads as "Republican funded." I was so mad! It's not only a lie but it is also shoddy reporting. Why don't these morons just admit they are Kerry flunkies?? They don't even make any pretense of being impartial anymore.
I will check the ABC News website now to find an address for audience feedback.

Well, the vast majority of the donors to Swift Vets are Republican, so, in a literal sense, ABC is telling the truth.

Actually, ABC radio is reading an Associated Press story, that starts out calling the Swift Vets as "Republican funded". (It's that way on the abcnews.com website; with an 'api' tagline.)
However, reading the story, the bias of the writer is obvious. I doubt he ever refers to MoveOn.org stories as "Democrat funded".
