Group finds more than a dozen lies in Coulter's latest book

[RiverStone]

The progressive media watchdog Media Matters for America delivered a scathing 6,000-word rebuke to conservative superstar Ann Coulter, accusing her of lying on more than a dozen occasions in her new book, Guilty: Liberal "Victims" and Their Assault on America.

Coulter has of late appeared to be something of a mockery of herself. Her support among conservatives has waned, though her prolific publishing prowess continues.

Among the slew of apparent lies in Coulter's book -- which Media Matters labels as "falsehoods," includes claims Coulter makes about Sen. John Kerry by the so-called "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth; and assertion that Fox News has "never been caught promoting a fraud;" and that President-elect Barack Obama was referring to Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin when he said, "you know, you can put lipstick on a pig; it's still a pig."

Perhaps among the more preposterous is Coulter's claim that Fox News has never been caught promoting a fraud. The group cites two glaring examples of Fox News missteps.

This woman spews so much sewage, she is awash in it! Too bad we need to waste bandwidth even talking about her, but rumor has it she will be on the CBS Morning Show tomorrow - promoting this swill.

Know thy enemy right? :mad:

5. Thanks..cbs needs to think

about what they're doing. I can't even believe nbc would ban her but since they have then they all need to take a harder look at her lies.

2. More than a dozen?

If it's like all other Coulter books, wouldn't it be a constant stream of lies from the first page to the last?

3. They're clearly not looking hard enough

or maybe they've only gotten through the table of contents. :P

6. there's way more there if they start sifting

Coulter writes "the heretofore unknown Kathleen Parker ..." when the fact is that Parker is the #2 columnist by circulation, second only to George Will
