<title>For second day in a row, &#x3C;em&#x3E;NY Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; falsely suggested Bill Clinton refuses to disclose source of speaking fees</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200811190004</link>
<description>In an article about whether Sen. Hillary Clinton would accept the position of secretary of state in an Obama administration, &#x3C;em&#x3E;The New York Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; reported that aides to President-elect Barack Obama &#x22;have been reviewing Mr. [Bill] Clinton&#x27;s business dealings, focusing on the array of his post-presidential activities, some details of which have not been made public. That includes the identity of most of the donors to his foundation&#x22; and &#x22;the source of some of his speaking fees.&#x22; But the &#x3C;em&#x3E;Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; did not note that the source and amount of all of Bill Clinton&#x27;s speaking fees of $200 or more are disclosed annually in Hillary Clinton&#x27;s Senate disclosure forms.</description>

<title>Front-page &#x3C;em&#x3E;NY Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; article misled on Obama and McCain campaigns&#x27; dependence on contributions of $1,000 or more</title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200808060003</link>
<description>&#x3C;em&#x3E;The New York Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; reported that a third of the $340 million Sen. Barack Obama&#x27;s campaign has raised &#x22;has come from donations of $1,000 or more: a total of $112 million, more than Senator John McCain ... raised in contributions of that size.&#x22; But the &#x3C;em&#x3E;Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; did not note that a significantly higher percentage -- nearly three-fourths -- of McCain&#x27;s campaign contributions have exceeded $1,000.</description>

<title>Numerous media outlets reported McCain&#x27;s attack on Obama over public financing without noting McCain&#x27;s loan  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200806200011</link>
<description>Numerous media outlets have reported all or part of Sen. John McCain&#x27;s statement rebuking Sen. Barack Obama for his decision to forgo public financing in the general election without mentioning that during the primary, McCain signed a loan that could have forced him to remain in the race -- even if he had no chance of winning -- in order to be eligible for public matching funds to repay the loan.  </description>

<title>&#x3C;em&#x3E;NY Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; ignored McCain flip-flop on whether he believed Falwell was an &#x22;agent[] of intolerance&#x22;  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200806090001</link>
<description>In an article about Sen. John McCain&#x27;s outreach to &#x22;evangelicals and other Christian conservatives,&#x22; &#x3C;em&#x3E;The New York Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; noted that &#x22;[i]n 2000, when he was running against Mr. Bush for the Republican nomination, Mr. McCain castigated Pat Robertson and the Rev. Jerry Falwell as &#x27;agents of intolerance.&#x27; &#x22; But the &#x3C;em&#x3E;Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; did not point out that McCain subsequently said he no longer believed Falwell was an &#x22;agent[] of intolerance.&#x22;  </description>

<title>&#x3C;em&#x3E;NY Times, &#x3C;/em&#x3E;washingtonpost.com omitted FEC chair&#x27;s assertion that McCain cannot unilaterally withdraw from public financing  </title>
<link>http://mediamatters.org/items/200804140004</link>
<description>Blog posts by&#x3C;em&#x3E; The New York Times&#x3C;/em&#x3E; and washingtonpost.com both reported on the Democratic National Committee&#x27;s announcement that it would be filing a lawsuit to force the Federal Election Commission (FEC) to investigate Sen. John McCain&#x27;s unilateral withdrawal from the federal public financing system for the primary election, but neither noted that FEC chairman David Mason has taken the position that McCain cannot opt out of public financing in the primary without FEC approval.  </description>
