FlackCheck.org’s Weekly Update Feb. 24, 2012

To Our Weekly Subscribers,

THANK YOU for helping spread the word about FlackCheck.org.

Please consider emailing your local broadcast stations urging them to insist on the accuracy of the third party ads they decide to air.

A special request to our Minnesota subscribers: See our piece praising WCCO-TV for its commitment to regularly air news reports factchecking deceptive political ads, including those from third party groups such as super PACS. We’ve provided a link to make it easy for you to send WCCO a note of thanks.

This week we also added eight new Debate Checks calling out the misleading statements made by the four GOP presidential candidates during Wednesday’s CNN Debate, as well as a new video attack on Abraham Lincoln’s “war on religion” from FlackCheck.org’s McClellan campaign.
