There's over 30 instances cited here from "Slander" that are either proven factually incorrect(e.g. attributing quotes to the wrong people) or just a plain misrepresentation of ideas and facts.

Gee, thanks. Y'know, I DID check it out. The person who maintains the site can't distinguish between a "fact" and an opinion. Example:

SLANDER. Journalists are, on the whole, biased to the left. FACT. To help prove this, she says that Rush Limbaugh and his right-wing ilk don't count because they are commentators, not journalists, but does quote liberal commentators such as Maureen Dowd to demonstrate journalists' bias.

Oh, man, Ann, yer busted...

NOT!!!

My definition of a "journalist" is, a member of the clique of writers who explicitly or implicitly conspire to convince the public that some particular person "is not a journalist." Notwithstanding the fact that under the First Amendment anyone can own and operate a press, so if you want to be a journalist then in fact you are one (probably an unprofitable one, but . . . ).

That definition would probably include just about every liberal writer.
