 On Saturday’s Good Morning America on ABC, as he anchored the show’s regular series of news briefs during the 7:00 a.m. hour, Ron Claiborne relayed liberal commentator Ron Reagan’s criticism of Sarah Palin as having "nothing in common with his father," former President Ronald Reagan, in response to her words at a celebration of the former President’s 100th birthday. Claiborne did not inform ABC viewers that Ron Reagan is a liberal who has a history of criticizing his father’s political policies as well as attacking other conservatives. Claiborne:

And former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin says America needs to return to the values of Ronald Reagan. In a speech celebrating Reagan’s 100 th birthday, which is tomorrow, Palin said that America is on a road to ruin because of what she characterized as "misguided policies" in Washington, D.C. But one of Reagan’s sons, Ron Reagan, says Palin has nothing in common with his father.
