  ...
  More than 2,000 Hispanic journalists watched how the vociferous CNN anchor Lou Dobbs crushed his opponents with his anti-immigrant point of view.
  ...
  The fact is that we can," Dobbs said, in reference to the destiny of the 12 million undocumented immigrants who reside in the US.
  ...
  Dobbs left smiling from a room filled with individuals who have close relatives caught in the middle of the immigration dispute.But my surprise came later, during the induction of María Elena Salinas, the Univision Network anchor, into the National Association of Hispanic Journalists (NAHJ) Hall of Fame.Saturday night, on the ceremony's gigantic TV screen, the name of Dobbs appeared in golden letters.He was among a limited group of people who paid to become a lifetime member of NAHJ.Two decades ago, I was one of the founding members of that organization.I know that the description of the NAHJ mission includes the phrase: "to foster and promote a fair treatment of Hispanics by the media."Dobbs is one of the worst examples of "promoting fair treatment" of Latinos on the airwaves.The news commentator has referred to Mexican immigrants in the US as an "army of invaders."Known as much for his personal opinions as for his anchoring, he takes licenses that many other Cable News Network broadcasters don't have.
  ...
  The question is why the Spanish-language side of CNN must maintain journalistic objectivity in its coverage of immigration while Mr. Dobbs is not required to do so.
  ...
  Locally, Keith Larson and Jason Lewis preach the same raucous speech as Dobbs.
  ...
  After all, Dobbs is a new member of NAHJ.

  Lou Dobbs Refuses to Retract Immigration Figure
  ...
  Lou Dobbs, the anti-illegal immigration activist, has refused to retract a story that has drawn scrutiny, namely the claim that illegal immigrants have contributed to 7,000 cases of leprosy in the United States over the last 3 years.
  ...
  Lou Dobbs Gets Caught Lying on 60 Minutes
  ...
  60 Minutes did a special on Lou Dobbs, and really challenged his form of "journalism" on the issue of illegal immigration.They found on several issues, Lou's facts were simply not there.For example, his program reported 7000 new cases of leprosy in the United States coming from illegal immigrants in the last three years.However, it turns out there have only been 7000 cases of leprosy in the last 30 years, and there was no way of knowing how many came frmo illegal immigrants at all.Dobbs simply said "If we reported it, it's a fact."He admitted that what he does is, at best, "advocacy journalism."
  
  In another bit of ironic news, Dobbs recently donated 5000 to the National Association of Hispanic Journalists and became a lifetime member.The absurd maneuver was no doubt intended to quell attacks on Dobbs as being biased against Mexicans for his inflammatory rhetoric.

  Electronic Voting Machines, Lou Dobbs and Venezuela
  
  As the American congressional elections approach the issue of electronic voting machines continues to be in the news, this time with more of the focus on the company Sequoia (as opposed to the notorious Diebold)
  
  In his series Democracy at Risk, Lou Dobbs has been broadcasting a great deal of information about the electronic voting machines and trying to highlight the importance of the issue and the danger of these machines.
  ...
  Now here is Dobbs on last Sunday's 'Democracy at Risk."
  ...
  DOBBS: The voting machine company, Sequoia, likes to point out its own history as a U.S. firm and as one of the top players in electronic voting.
  ...
  The point here is that Dobbs, and to a much lesser extent, The New York TImes are using Chavez and his government as some sort of bogeyman in an attempt to discredit Sequoia.
  ...
  Now this isn't at all to say that Sequoia should be trusted, rather the question of ownership is mostly irrelevant (as we will more clearly see when we look at the 2004 referendum in Venezuela) and that Dobbs is dishonest.But now let's first look at two reasons why the company really shouldn't be trusted.
  ...
  Now let's get back to Dobbs and Venezuela, and why he is such dismal, irresponsible journalist and a very poor messenger on issues of such importance as the credibility of an electoral system.
  ...
  Maybe from Mr. Dobbs and his reporter?
  
  ...PILGRIM: Smartmatic's machines were used in Venezuela's controversial 2004 recall election.
  ...
  This is extremely dishonest of Dobbs.
  ...
  We recall that Dobbs referred to Chavez as a strongman (a strongman can be defined as someone who is a "a political leader who controls by force; dictator.") So let's take a closer look at referendum in Venezuela to see how accurate Dobbs and his so-called authority are.
  ...
  Despite the noble aims of a fair election and the nonstop questioning of the reliability of the electronic voting machines, Lou Dobbs remains an unqualified hack and CNN remains a dubious source for sound information.
  ...
  Listed below are links to weblogs that reference Electronic Voting Machines, Lou Dobbs and Venezuela:
  ...
  I could not find anything on Brian Hunter and Venezuela on the Internet so I end up questioning the author's credibility more than Colonel who has extensive web archives and Dobbs who is Dobbs.

  Lou Dobbs covered this story the other day.According to his report, these two are working "in private" with the US Chamber of Commerce, letting the US Chamber of Commerce actually WRITE much of the proposed "guest worker" (read: Amnesty) legislation.
  
  Apparently, according to Dobbs, Kennedy felt the best chance for it to pass would be for Liberal Democrats to ally themselves with Neo-Con Republicans via the US Chamber of Commerce.
