ABC's Elisabeth Leamy Tosses Softballs to Obama: What Are You Teaching the Kids About Money?

By Scott Whitlock | July 23, 2010 | 12:03

Good Morning America's Elisabeth Leamy used an exclusive interview with Barack Obama on Friday to toss mostly softball questions, such as wondering, "I want to ask you, what are you and the First Lady teaching your daughters about money?" [MP3 audio here]

After the President suggested that his children could earn some money on the side, Leamy gushed, "I've got a job for them babysitting." The program's consumer correspondent offered almost no challenges from the right, instead she mostly pushed Obama from the left.

ABC’s ‘Good Morning America’ Revs Up Criticism of Car Rental Gasoline Fees

By Paul Detrick | August 29, 2008 | 16:58

If you break the terms of a contract, you should be expected to pay a penalty, right? Not according to ABC's "Good Morning America."

"Good Morning America" criticized fees charged to customers who return rental cars without a full tank of gas - part of a standard car rental agreement.

"The only thing more expensive than gassing up your car these days is not gassing up your rental car," reporter Elisabeth Leamy explained to viewers on August 29. She said companies across the nation charge as much as $8 per gallon for cars returned unfilled.

GMA Gets Its Fill of Food Police

By Stuart James | August 28, 2007 | 09:16

Much like tasty snacks, the networks can never stop their addiction to “food police” groups like the Center for Science in the Public Interest.Yesterday morning it was Good Morning America that was shilling for them, saying, “Did you realize you were paying more for less food?”

What was the target this time? The 100 calorie “snack packs,” that CSPI themselves have fought for. CSPI is upset about the cost, even though companies have gone out of their way to create less fattening snacks, (in smaller portions, and with some new recipes).

GMA reporter Elisabeth Leamy starts off the segment like this:
