Coalition for America's Families making up news stories

The Coalition for America's Families has a new ad out that stoops to a new low. They are making up news stories that never existed.

The ad recycles the same garbage that failed Attorney General candidate Paul Bucher had out there about drug offenders. The ad claims Kathleen Falk wants to release violent drug offenders, which is absolutely false. If fact, the still in the ad looks like they lifted it right from Bucher's old website.

But the Coalition for America's Families doesn't cite Bucher's website when they are making their ridiculous claim. They list an article from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that ran on August 24, 2002 as the supposed source.

I searched for a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel article during that whole week of 2002 that said what the ad claims it says and I couldn't find it. Reporters should demand to see the article and TV stations shouldn't run the ad until they do.

Paul Bucher's wife may have once worked for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, but that doesn't mean the crap that she helped Bucher put out for his failed campaign is from that paper.
