Media Matters for America
Media Matters for America is a non-profit organization founded by former conservative journalist David Brock. Media Matters provides near real-time monitoring, and where necessary refutation of conservative misinformation found in media reports from Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly and other outlets. Through the group's web site, launched in October 2003, Media Matters describes it self as "a Web-based, not-for-profit progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. media. Conservative misinformation is defined as news or commentary presented in the media that is not accurate, reliable, or credible and that forwards the conservative agenda." [1]
The New York Times reported that they have received "more than $2 million in donations from wealthy liberals" and "was developed with help from the newly formed Center for American Progress".
