BREITBART.COM – USA Today: Call Database Not So Broad

Is this another case of ‘fake but accurate’ reporting?

USA Today acknowledged in a “note to our readers” Friday that it could not establish that BellSouth or Verizon contracted with the National Security Agency to provide it with customer calling records, as it previously reported.

But spokesman Steve Anderson said “this is an important story that holds up well. At the heart of our report is the fact that NSA is collecting phone call records of millions of Americans.”

But remember, the media has a responsibility to advocate positions, not merely report the ‘news’.

And bloggers are wildly inaccurate and dangerous?
