ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This website would not have been possible for the remarkable work done by several people, which this website draws upon [especially #2, 3 and 4 below]. In putting together this website, I was particularly inspired by:

1. Joe Conason and Gene Lyons' The Hunting of the President (simply referred to as "Conason" on this website). If anyone wants to truly understand what has happened to this country, this remarkable piece of investigative journalism is where I would really recommend they start.

2. David Brock's The Republican Noise Machine [simply referred to as "Brock" on this website], and the excellent work done by his team at Media Matters for America.

3. Eric Alterman's What Liberal Media (simply referred to as "Alterman" on this website)

4. The outstanding work done by Bob Somerby at The Daily Howler

5. The outstanding reporting by Robert Parry and Sam Parry at Consortium News.

6. Excellent resources for articles, such as: 

• Atrios/Eschaton

• DailyKos 

• Talkingpointsmemo/Josh Marshall 

• MyDD

• Progress Report (Center for American Progress)

• BuzzFlash  

• CJR Daily 

I would also like to add a special note of thanks to Mary at The Left Coaster, who has kindly permitted me to blog as a guest at The Left Coaster, to introduce this website as well as solicit comments from readers.

If I have missed anyone here, it is purely unintentional for there are now a large number of bloggers and writers who are doing a great service in trying to bring out the real truth about the long-time conservative slant of American media.

Website assistance was provided by some very kind readers who believe that truth is essential for democracy to flourish; graphics and design by Shifter TV.
