From the Dep't. of Duh: Group finds more than a dozen lies in Coulter's latest book

By GottaLaff

Original post about the self-parodying Madam's Apple's appalling screed here.

Media Matters has catalogued at least thirteen major falsehoods Coulter makes in her book. Among them include (excerpts):

* On Page 15, Coulter writes, "Fox News has never been caught promoting a fraud -- unlike CBS (Bush National Guard story), ABC (tobacco industry report), NBC (exploding GM trucks), CNN (Tailwind), and MSNBC (Keith Olbermann)."

* Coulter advances several falsehoods about Kerry in defending the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth...

* Coulter falsely claims that "the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth weren't forced to retract any part of their story. [Page 100]"

* Coulter also suggests that the media ignored the allegations of the Swift Boat Veterans, writing, "The only way they could have gotten less attention would have been to be interviewed on Air America Radio."

* Coulter also falsely suggests that no witnesses supported Kerry's account that his convoy came under enemy fire during the March 13, 1969, actions for which he was awarded the Bronze Star.

* Coulter writes that Kerry "carrie[d] a home-movie camera to war in order to reenact combat scenes and tape fake interviews with himself" during his tour in Vietnam [Page 100].

* Coulter devotes four pages of Guilty [173-176] to discussing her false assertion that "Obama himself compared Palin to a pig and then denied doing so."

I listed the lies, not the corrections. You can find all the details here.

I've already subjected you to my rant about Madam's in my previous post. However, I encourage you to let loose in Comments. There is no limit. Rant freely and often.
