The Media - MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell
At NewsBusters.org, Mark Finkelstein has this recent example:
"When it came to the President's statement during the interview that at Camp David 'we do skeet shooting all the time,' Mitchell claimed 'he didn't say that he was skeet shooting, but he does say that it's one of the practices at Camp David by his guests.' Responding, Hughes effectively contradicted her: "Frank Foer, the editor of New Republic, actually asked him point blank 'have you ever fired a gun?' And in response he said 'yeah, we go skeet shooting all the time up at Camp David. He and his guests. Which is news to us and news to a lot of people.' The transcript of the interview makes clear that, contrary to Mitchell's claim, Obama answered in the personal and affirmative."
