Don't leave it to Cleaver, part 11 - McClatchy News in Disrepute

"This morning we received an email message from McClatchy News DC investigative editor James Asher promoting a current story. Of all the news outlets that covered the fabricated March 20 story of Reps. Carson, Cleaver, Clyburn and Lewis regarding the racial abuse to which they were subjected by Tea Party/Obamacare protesters on Capitol Hill, McClatchy's may have been the worst: "Tea party protesters scream 'nigger' at black congressmen."
As we have discussed in previous installments of this miniseries, two journalists have reviewed the evidence supporting the incident. The Washington Post's ombudsman essentially found no evidence to support the incident in his review." [Power Line]
