On the death of American hero John McCain, former WHAS talk show host John Ziegler reissued his 2009 MEDIA MALPRACTICE film. It's Ziegler's comprehensive takedown of partisan media skewing news during the 2008 presidential campaign. With all of the understandable talk this weekend about John McCain & Sarah Palin, I decided to post a totally free copy of my film "Media Malpractice" about that election to refresh memories of what really went down then.

Without having read Pope Francis' perspective on various issues, Palin blamed the media for distortion of the Pope's "Liberal" messages. After being roundly mocked as illustrated above, Palin used social media to apologize.
