MediaMuddles Alert on Al Franken

David Crock, from MediaMuddles, writes: "Today, at 9:27 PST, Al Franken on the Al Franken show claimed that 'Truman integrated the military' when, in fact, it was Republican President Eisenhower who integrated the military. Neither Franken's co-hosts, nor subsequent callers to the show challenged the obvious intentional lie! We here at MediaMuddles will be writing letters to AirAmerica demanding a correction! - as soon as my lithium wears off and I can write."

Yeah. Uh-huh. When he has the Tooth Fairy on as a guest.

Looks like it was an on-going process from just after WW2 to 1954 so ... 1/2 credit to Truman and Eisnehower I guess.
