The Smear and the Truth

Barack Obama launched www.fightthesmears.com, a new webpage that:

Informs the people about the rumors smearing Obama

Stating the truth around the issues, with video and links to support the argument

Exposing the people that are behind the unjust attacks (with links to their sites and mainstream media reports)

Urging people to report smears to the campaign and email them to watchdog@barackobama.com

It is a move that has got mainstream media publicity and a great tool to defend against Internet rumors becoming campaign issues.
