I find it unconscionable that Jim Hoagland continues to repeat a claim that even The White House now admits is simply not true...
The Second Paragraph of that piece is as follows.
That is not as true elsewhere: Disgusted German voters severely rebuked Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder last weekend. The French electorate prepares to embarrass President Jacques Chirac this weekend. The Dutch argue bitterly over Europe and Muslims in their midst. Arabs and Afghans riot over a specious Newsweek item about the Koran, even as Saudi authorities quietly confiscate and destroy Bibles brought into the kingdom.
Continuing to spread this misinformation is propaganda of the worst sort. This is slipped in as if it were an accepted fact, which it is not.
Does The Washington Post have standards about claims contrary to fact gracing its pages?
