It seems more to me that Matthew is saying that people will use this as a means to smear all Christians as Pat Roberston style Christians, and he seems to be annoyed with this.

It is important to expose this charlatan for what he is... a ripe wind bag who *does not* represent the sentiments of the average Christian. Robertson has a big audience and the world is listening.
When the conservative media pundits and conservative politicians denounce him, I will be happy.

I would count Instapundit as a media pundit:
PAT ROBERTSON OFFERS US ANOTHER REMINDER of why he was one of the original models for the term "idiotarian:"
Also, I've found The Corner to generally be a conservative group of pundits:
WHEN WILL PAT ROBERTSON FINALLY JUST SHUT HIS STUPID MOUTH?
Obviously these two posters don't hold near as much weight as say, a politician, but they tend to be on radio and t.v. news shows occasionally, so they have an audience.
