President Obama and the First Lady are unusual targets for most famous comedians.
But they didn’t get a break from Saturday Night Live alum David Spade, who called the President “thirsty” for attention, after the first family's many television appearances.
So much for neutral journalism. Ishaan Tharoor, Foreign affairs reporter for The Washington Post, went on a tirade on Twitter Tuesday evening, bashing the GOP debate in multiple tweets, but perhaps his worst statement was calling the undercard debate “a bunch of old white men yelling at each other.”
Not exactly original coming from a liberal -- but neither is it something a reporter from one of the nation’s leading newspapers should be tweeting.
The British press has gone from topless models to penis jokes about presidential candidates. At least that junior high humor stays largely on Twitter, where the filters come off and journalists’ truly biased viewpoints come out.
Dave Zirin, sports editor for The Nation, had particularly harsh words for the GOP candidates on stage during CNN’s debate Tuesday night. Perhaps not surprising as he has a history of bashing conservatives and Christians, like when he bashed Scott Walker earlier this year or his multiple attacks against openly-Christian Tim Tebow.
Better late than never.
The Black Lives Matter rallying phrase, “Hands up, don’t shoot,” was one of the biggest lies told this year, according to the Washington Post’s Glenn Kessler, in his annual end-of-the-year fact-checker.
If you have ever wanted to read a politically-correct primer on how the liberal media works, look no further than this helpful how-to straight from the horse’s mouth: the Huffington Post.
Senior media editor Gabriel Arana explained in the article, “5 Ways Journalists Can Avoid Islamophobia in Their Coverage,” that 1. Journalists shouldn’t provide opposing points of view when covering Islam; 2. Journalists shouldn’t use the word “Islam” when talking about terror; and 3. All journalists should have a “close” Muslim friend to make sure their reporting is friendly to the faith.
As it turns out, Jenner isn’t all the left hoped for.
After months of celebrating Bruce Jenner’s transition to Caitlyn Jenner earlier this year, the liberal media are turning on their former “hero” for not being “transgender” enough. Apparently, Jenner doesn’t say all the “right things” that a true liberal icon should – and so now, the left is eating one of its own.
After every mass shooting, well-meaning but empty-headed celebrities come out in droves to hold up signs with hashtags and lend their voices to anti-gun political ads. This week was no different in the wake of last week’s two tragic shootings. A new ad released today by Michael Bloomberg’s group, Everytown USA For Gun Safety, added a few new faces to the usual gamut of gun-grabbers.
In the wake of the San Bernardino mass shooting by Islamic terrorists last week, President Obama called for more punitive measures on Americans who want to buy guns instead of addressing specific measures against Muslims adhering to a radical ideology.
In a speech from the White House Sunday night, the President declared access to guns a matter of “national security.”
If you thought the liberal onslaught of blame on conservatives and Fox News before the San Bernardino shooters were identified couldn’t get worse, think again. On Thursday night, CNN’s Gary Tuchman badgered one victim’s wife to insinuate that the man was “asking for it” because he bothered to talk about religion at work.
On the Dec. 3 Anderson Cooper 360, Tuchman interviewed Jennifer Thalasinos, wife of one of the killed victims, Nicholas Thalasinos. Thalasinos was a Messianic Jew (a “born-again” Jew) who would frequently evangelize and sometimes engage in heated discussions with the gunman, Syed Farook, over Islam.
Immediately following the shooting in San Bernardino yesterday, many people offered up their prayers for the victims and their family members. In response, many liberal journalists and politicians took to Twitter to mock prayer as “ineffective” and called for conservatives to “shut up.”
On Wednesday, another mass shooting occurred in San Bernardino, CA, at a social care center for people with developmental disabilities. Before police had even identified the shooter, liberal journalists on Twitter came to their own conclusions: It must be a crazy right-winger. Without a second thought, they blamed conservatives, the GOP and the NRA for the shooting.
The Bible says, “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” and that appears to be the standard by which one man lived, who gave his life Friday protecting those he disagreed with on abortion. But you won’t hear that story from the media because the pro-life “Good Samaritan" doesn’t fit their agenda.
After a gunman entered a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs on Black Friday, wounding nine people and killing another three, journalists were quick to blame conservatives, Fox News and the pro-life movement for the violent tragedy.
The knee-jerk reaction for more gun control was implicitly there, but the media went even further this time, demanding the censorship of pro-life speech. Why should they stop at challenging one amendment?
Here are the worst examples of journalists blaming pro-lifers for the violence that ensued last week:
Just in time for the upcoming holiday, National Geographic will premiere a two-part television movie about the very first Thanksgiving in 1621 between the Pilgrims and Native Americans. The series creators have marketed this special, Saints and Strangers, as a realistic, historically-accurate version of the trials and tribulations the Pilgrims faced during their Mayflower voyage and after their landing.
On Wednesday, this audacious headline and image which lumped together law-abiding gun-owners with Islamic terrorists – complete with a gun superimposed over the ISIS flag – appeared on the front page of the New York Daily News:
Is television too graphic? That’s an argument that could be discussed ad nauseam, but this week’s decision by some networks to delay explicit television episodes, proves that even Hollywood knows how closely it can mirror a violent reality.
The husband of a 9/11 hero is returning his late wife’s “Woman of the Year” award from Glamour magazine after Caitlyn Jenner was given the same award, Nov. 9.
NYPD Officer James Smith’s wife Moira (who had also been a NYPD officer) was honored in 2001 with one of Glamour’s “Woman of the Year” awards for her heroism in saving “hundreds” from the World Trade Center as it collapsed September 11, 2001. Smith was the only female NYPD officer to die that day.
Good news! College campuses are no longer the only bastions of “safe spaces” protecting fragile minds from challenging ideas. Starbucks has announced it’s now offering the same, protective experience to the LGBTQ community in all its Seattle branches.
The purveyor of overpriced, pretentious coffee has partnered with the city of Seattle to provide a “safe place” of refuge for victims to get “tea and sympathy” with their lackluster coffee while they wait for police to arrive and report alleged “hate crimes.” As of Nov. 9, Starbucks employees have even been reportedly trained to serve gay, lesbian, transgender and queer victims of harassment under this new service.
The Fox Business undercard debate tonight was so balanced in comparison to CNBC’s debate moderated by, that liberal journalists used social media to re-ignite their tired “War on Women.”
During the debate, Fox Business moderator Sandra Smith asked candidates what their opinion was on how well Janet Yellen was managing the Federal Reserve. Former Gov. Mike Huckabee responded with a lame joke about his wife also being named Janet, so he’s “very familiar” with the concept of “Janet yellin’.”
