	DoD News: Secretary Rumsfeld Interview with NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, WETA TV (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		Lehrer: It's been suggested that you are emphasizing only the upside of this, and that you haven't talked publicly about, hey, wait a minute, they may not -- they may resist, they may do this, they may do that, thousands and thousands of people could die, including a lot of Americans.
		Lehrer: And there are a lot of what they call -- the private aid groups have been on this program and elsewhere saying that there has been very little coordination with them from the U.S. government, they're prepared to help out and all that, and they're waiting for the calls.
		Lehrer: But, it has not given you any pause at all to consider whether or not, the numbers you just laid out, that aside, that the message as to why this military action may have to be taken has not gotten through to everyone.

	Interview on The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer
		LEHRER: More generally about terrorism, in light of the Egypt bombings and, of course, the bombings in London, there's a new poll out today that suggests that more than two-thirds of the American people believe that there is going to be another horrendous terrorist attack in the United States soon.
		I can tell you, Jim, that I'm spending an awful lot of time these days preparing for the high-level meetings that are going to take place in September where all of the world's leaders are going to be here to talk about refreshing the United Nations after 60 years.
		LEHRER: I noticed on your recent trip to Darfur, however, you seemed terribly frustrated that there is -- millions of people have been made homeless, thousands of people have been killed, and here the United States and the rest of the world can't stop it.

	NewsHour with Jim Lehrer
		JIM LEHRER: There's been much written and speculated about as far as what message you brought to the president of the United States and his administration and the secretary of state, et cetera, as to what the United States should do to kind of ease the situation in the Middle East.
		JIM LEHRER: The recent Arab League meeting over which you presided -- it was in Jordan -- many Americans were struck by the really severe anti-Israeli rhetoric that the Arab leaders used.
		JIM LEHRER: But is it correct to say that the Arab leaders believe that the violence and the problems between the Israelis and the Palestinians are solely the result of actions by the Israelis?

	SECRETARY RUMSFELD APPEARS ON NEWSHOUR WITH JIM LEHRER, PBS : ArriveNet Editorials : Politics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		JIM LEHRER: First, 9/11 Commission proposals, you told the Senate Armed Services Committee today that you had yet to reach conviction on the specifics.
		JIM LEHRER: Some of the senators, Sen. Levin, for one, the ranking Democrat, was disappointed, I think, is a safe way of saying it that you didn't answer any of these questions specifically about your own personal views, and you said you were going to wait until...
		JIM LEHRER: But, speaking of today as I just reported in the News Summary, we have got a real problem in Najaf with Muqtada al-Sadr, a guy that early on was being dismissed by American officials as a thug, nobody followed him.

	MediaChannel.org - A Global Network of More Than 1,000 Media Issues Groups
		During a panel discussion April 7 on the NewsHour, while battles raged in close to a dozen Iraqi cities, a retired U.S. Air Force colonel referred to the American authorities' closure of a newspaper that had served as a megaphone for the anti-occupation Shiite leader Moqtada al-Sadr.
		Or, if Lehrer did not have such a citation, I asked if there were plans for an on-air correction to set the factual record straight on the program (which reaches nearly 3 million viewers across the United States each night).
		Lehrer's refusal to correct his evident error is especially striking because he had emphasized his incorrect statement on the air by immediately adding: "I just want to get that on the record." (My request to a NewsHour spokesperson for a direct comment from Lehrer did not yield any statement from him.)

	Interview On The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer
		LEHRER: Well, as you know, this has been read in the Arab world, and also in some places in Europe and elsewhere, the United States as saying, "Hey, Syria, look next door at what happened to Iraq.
		LEHRER: Another premise, of course, and you made the point that there -- you suggested that there was a connection between the Saddam Hussein regime and al-Qaida.
		LEHRER: Finally, as the principal representative of the United States of America, we have talked about a few of them, but there are all kinds of other things all over the world where you are going to represent our country.

	PBS's The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		JIM LEHRER: Senator Hagel, the world used a while ago was "flmail," that North Korea is in the process of flmailing us and the rest of the world.
		JIM LEHRER: Speaking of getting dangerous and where we're headed, Senator Biden, on Iraq, the International Atomic Energy Agency, the International Atomic Agency said today that their inspectors thus far had found nothing, had found no smoking guns.
		But I do think, Jim, internationally, for the United States to be able to move in with 100 plus thousand forces into Iraq, there is going to be a need for some further evidence that he is in violation of the commitment made to the UN in the early 90s.

	FAIR ACTION ALERT: NewsHour Should Correct Lehrer's Falsehood
		Lehrer explained on the program, "The reason we shut down his press is because it was calling for violence." One of Lehrer's guests interrupted to agree with him, but Lehrer finished by saying, "I just want to get that on the record."
		Syndicated columnist (and FAIR associate) Norman Solomon was puzzled by Lehrer's attempt to set the record straight, since what he said actually contradicts the evidence that is on the record.
		Lehrer faulted the segment (3/4/04) for "not being as balanced as is our standard practice." Viewers might be left wondering what the show's "standard practice" is for correcting errors made by the host.

	MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour Wizards of Media OZ
		As the MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour prepares to mark its 20th anniversary, press releases are hailing the PBS program as "one of the most influential news sources in the world." But from where we sit-in front of the TV screen-that's no cause for celebration.

	Jim Lehrer Caught Lying (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		When the anchor of public television's main news program goes out of his way to tell viewers that he's setting the record straight about a recent historic event, the people watching are apt to assume that they're getting accurate information.
		During a panel discussion April 7 on the NewsHour, while battles raged in close to a dozen Iraqi cities, a retired U.S. Air Force colonel referred to the American authorities' closure of a newspaper that had served as a megaphone for the anti-occupation Shiite leader Moktada al-Sadr.
		So Jim Lehrer's own people were unable to come up with any support for his statement.

		But with Dan Rather and Tom Brokaw retired and Peter Jennings recovering from a bout with cancer, Jim Lehrer is indisputably the last man standing, or sitting, in nightly news.
		It stands to reason, too, that 71-year-old Lehrer, for whom the words "solid" and "trustworthy" seem to have been invented, would be the one to save broadcast journalism in its hour of need.
		Born in Wichita, Kansas, Lehrer graduated from Victoria College in the southeast Texas town of Victoria and the University of Missouri before serving three years as an infantry officer in the Marine Corps.
