Abstract:

Last week, thousands of members of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) held their annual meeting, finding only ridicule and distortion of the event in the resulting media reports. Such treatment tends to confirm the DAR's contention that freedom of the press in America has degenerated into freedom to misrepresent.
