2007-01-23 Debunked Insight Magazine and Fox News Smear Campaign

2007-01-23 \Barack Obama/Muslim smear\Insight Magazine\Fox News\CNN http://obama.senate.gov/press/070123-debunked_insigh/ Debunked Insight Magazine and Fox News Smear Campaign &ldquo;Insight Magazine published these allegations without a single named source, and without doing any independent reporting to confirm or deny the allegations. Fox News quickly parroted the charges, and Fox and Friends host Steve Doocy went so far as to ask, "Why didn't anybody ever mention that that man right there was raised – spent the first decade of his life, raised by his Muslim father – as a Muslim and was educated in a Madrassa?" .. All of the claims about Senator Obama raised in the Insight Magazine piece were thoroughly debunked by CNN, which, instead of relying on unnamed sources, sent a reporter to Obama's former school in Jakarta to check the facts.&rdquo; (emphasis is in original)
