Richard Poe's Not-So-Secret War

He sums up his Hillary-bashing book in a series of WorldNetDaily articles that ignores evidence that conflicts with his conspiratorial thesis -- and fails to disclose his own conflict of interest

In an apparent attempt to capitalize on Edward Klein's factually flawed book attacking Hillary Clinton, Richard Poe pounded out a 10-part WorldNetDaily series based on his 2004 WorldNetDaily-published book, "Hillary's Secret War," which purports to describe according to Poe "how Hillary Clinton and the left's 'shadow government' have labored to put her and her far-left agenda in the White House by controlling the still-uncensored flow of real news to Americans -- via the Internet."

Poe's WND series, however, is filled with uncorroborated statements and long-discredited assertions. Additionally, he bashes liberal billionaire George Soros and lionizes and whitewashes conservative billionaire Richard Mellon Scaife -- while hiding the fact that Scaife plays a role in providing him a steady paycheck.

When he's not pounding out anti-Hillary screeds, Poe has a day job working for the David Horowitz-operated Center for the Study of Popular Culture as an investigative editor as well as managing editor of Horowitz's group blog Moonbat Central.
