NewsMax Calls Howard Stern “Liberal”

by @ 3:36 pm. Filed under General

In an article from right-wing web site NewsMax.com they lead off with a factual error-

Is “shock jock” Howard Stern’s voice powerful enough to affect the upcoming presidential election to the extent of sending President Bush packing?

That’s what the Boston Globe wants to know, explaining that the liberal talk show host the newspaper describes as a “stripper aficionado, champion of misfits everywhere, all-purpose radio provocateur,” has turned his raunchy show into a Bush-bashing marathon.


Calling Stern a liberal is just factually incorrect and shows how poorly researched this article is. Reading through it you get the sense that there’s no actual original reporting, just quotes from other articles and recontextualized to slant to the right. Did I just make up a new word? In any case, the vast majority of the candidates Stern has supported have been from the Republic party. (They call Democratic Party the “Democrat Party”- Two can play at that game…)

Because of that glaring mistatement of fact it’s very hard to take anything in the article seriously, but then again, since the article appears on NewsMax it’s very hard to take any article seriously.
