Yahoo Answers had a guy who posted several direct links. It was while looking at MediaMatters.Org link that I found the "Misinformer of the year 2009" 'award'.

Now some people say MediaMatters.Org is 'non-partisan' but I can't say that I found much in the way of criticism for the administration. I've found far more even-handedness on Politifact.org in that they'll tell you when Obama has broken a promise and they do a good job of explaining how and why they give the ratings they do. Ok, I'm still a fan of any place that invented the "Pants On Fire" rating
Do you know that Politifact.org is sponsored by The St. Peterburg Times the most liberal newspaper in America? They use a lot of tricks when trying to pretend to be impartial. Just read their final conclusions when they are judging a Liberal vs a conservative.
