LOS ANGELES (YBH.ME) – Liberal watch dog group Media Matters For America slammed Andrew Breitbart today over a report of a video featuring a group of religious folks praising Obama.  It turns out that they were actually praising God (Oh God not Oh-bama).

Media Matters had a field day on its website MediaMatters.org, with the lead “Breitbart walks back smear.”

It turns out Breitbart isn’t the only one with egg on his face this afternoon.  One of the four stories we found excoriating Breitbart on Media Matters is entitled “Breitbart’s Big Hollywood: Same old birtherism, comparisons of Obama to Hitler.”

The story reads:

Recently, Fox News and other media outlets have given increased attention and influence to conservative web publisher Andrew Breitbart. One of his web outlets, BigHollywood.com, frequently accuses President Obama of failing to release a valid birth certificate.

The thing is, Breitbart’s Big Hollywood website is bighollywood.breitbart.com.  BigHollywood.com is a url owned by MediaLot.com and is a  website for cinema fans.

A note for Media Matters:  At least check out a website’s web address before slamming it.

Editor’s Note:  John Romano is not a birther and is a contributor to Big Hollywood.
