In desperation, the AP makes up stories . . .

On FNC, I saw Bush inform the crowd in Wisconsin that Clinton had been hospitalized. After he stated that Clinton "is in our hearts and prayers," there were no boos. In fact, the crowd met Bush's well-wishing with resounding applause and cheers. Having seen that, I was dumbfounded to find the above AP story. After a successful RNC, which has given Bush a sizeable bounce (he is now ahead of Kerry by about 11 points, thanks in no small part to Nader, according to Time), I think the mainstream media is simply desperate to nail Bush on something. Anything. Even if untrue.

Update: According to Drudge, the AP is retracting the story. Perhaps the AP simply reported how they thought evil Republicans would respond to such news. Perhaps they reported how they themselves would react if Bush were in similar circumstances. I don't see how this could have possibly been an honest and innocent mistake.

Listen.

But, Palooka you know how the media in this country is unbiased.
They would NEVER write anything that was not true.....

I thought that was odd when I read it.

Oh, the horror! No attempt to stop non-existent boos....

Read this piece of tripe billed as unbiased political news (not a column) from AP.

The Associated Press is headed the way of al-Reuters.
