Media Matters Launches ‘Right Wing Squares’ Campaign

The video ends with a voiceover that says, “Visit Media Matters for America, continuously monitoring and correcting conservative mis-information in the media. Viewers are encouraged to send the clip to a friends and place a link in their email or on their blog. The link will be monitored and the top 50 referers will get a new “fair and balanced” item of apparel.
