U.S. Rep. Howard Coble, a Greensboro Republican, criticized the national media this morning for what he called a lack of coverage on the ACORN scandal.

ACORN (Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now) came under criticism after two activists, posing as a prostitute and her pimp, secretly recorded some of the group’s employees offering advice on how to fill out tax returns for an illegal business, Barb Barrett reports.

In the wake of the scandal, Congress pulled federal funding for the organization.

In his brief speech during the House of Representatives’ "one-minutes" this morning, Coble said the national media should report the facts.
