President Obama's campaign, Organizing for America, took aim at the media again today for failing, in its view, to properly counter false claims made by opponents of health care overhaul.

"Over the past few months, two things have become clear about the fight for health insurance reform: Our opponents will create and spread outrageous lies to try to stop President Obama from creating real change. We just can't count on the media to debunk them," OFA chief Mitch Stewart wrote to Obama's e-mail list.

Since every major Democratic entity and its sister organization have spent the month of August filling inboxes with "mythbuster" tip sheets citing news reports and columns, it really isn't that hard to find fact-checking resources.
