I send this e-mail to Factcheck, as well as calling their office and left message asking the same question.
Quote: | Just curious as to why you refer to the Swiftvets organization as Republican funded, and yet you do not refer to the Moveon organization as being Democratic funded? |
Here's their "Out of Office" reply:
Quote: | Thanks for contacting FactCheck.org
Your message WILL be read, and we do appreciate all suggestions, questions

In my phone message I let them know how disappointed I was in their organization and the obvious bias they have presented with regarding to this issue. Also let them know that I would no longer feel comfortable quoting their website as an accurate, unbiased, assessment of an issue. _________________ KP
