While right-wingers complain that
every single media outlet except for FOX "News" and right-wing talk radio is horribly,
liberally biased, we keep finding evidence that
their side is the guilty one when it comes to skewing the truth. We've had selective Obama quotes in Romney ads. We've had
very dodgy "quotes" and "facts" in Karl Rove's (and others') SuperPAC ads. We've had out-of-context quotes turned into the overriding slogan of the Republican National Convention: "You didn't build that!" And, we basically have an entire right-wing bubble running against a cartoonish, exaggerated, alternate-reality version of President Obama.
That alternate version is far more literal when it is presented as the real version, as it was in this
National Review cover.
