President Obama may criticize and rail against those nasty one percenters, but he certainly loves them when he’s looking to raise money.

The Hollywood Reporter relayed that on October 1, a Q&A session will be held at the Los Angeles home of Hollywood producer/director J.J. Abrams and wife Katie McGrath to benefit the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.  The cost to enjoy the presence of such elitists?  A paltry $33,400 per person – for many people across America, that’s an annual salary.

On CNN’s State of the Union, House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi was asked by Jake Tapper if she had seen any of the undercover videos that showed Planned Parenthood executives casually talking about selling body parts of aborted babies.

In true Pelosi fashion, she replied that “I don’t stipulate these videos are real,” and just as President Obama hears news first from the media, Pelosi told Tapper “I’ve seen some news reports on it, but I also know that some of it is not real and you can create any reality that you want.”  

Comedian and Daily Show co-creator Lizz Winstead threw a hissyfit when initially Apple rejected her feminist app “Hinder,” a satirical rip-off of the dating app “Tinder”: it allows a user to swipe “anti-women” politicians, much like Tinder users can reject potential dates they find objectionable.

Apple has since backed away from its initial ban on the app after Winstead went and whined to the Daily Beast that she was “short-shrifted” by the company.

So liberal-leaning Vanity Fair apparently has no problem with the all-male club that is late-night comedy programming.

The October 2015 issue cover is clad with the usual suspects of late-night television, which included Stephen Colbert,Conan O'Brien, Trevor Noah, James Corden, Jimmy Kimmel, John Oliver, Seth Meyers, Larry Wilmore, Jimmy Fallon and Bill Maher. That’s fine and all, but where are the women?  Aren’t liberals – especially in Hollywood and the media - always the ones harping on how comedy acts are still too heavily dominated by dudes?

How’s this for a dose of irony? Dan Rather promoting a movie called Truth that is nothing but a bunch of lies.

The former CBS anchorman was on hand this past Saturday at the Toronto Film Festival where he praised Robert Redford who stars as Rather in a film that depicted a 2004 controversy that would later become known as Rathergate.

As if this story didn’t leave Americans enough to argue about, CNN’s Don Lemon yesterday thought it would be a great idea to play, of all things, a clip from The West Wing that had gone viral earlier this week in reaction to Rowan County Kentucky Court Clerk Kim Davis (D) and her religious stance on gay marriage.

It got a little heated yesterday when MSNBC host Thomas Roberts interviewed former Gov. Howard Dean (D-Vermont) over whether or not Hilary Clinton’s email controversy is a made-up media obsession or a legitimate point of concern for the Democratic presidential candidate. In fact, it got so contentious between the two that Susan Del Percio, a Republican strategist, sat quietly the last eight minutes of the segment.

There have been many conservatives coming to the defense of Kim Davis, the county clerk in Kentucky who refused to issue marriage licenses to gay couples, but there is one unlikely supporter coming to her defense – Christopher Ciccone – otherwise known as Madonna’s brother, and who happens to be gay.

Taking to his Facebook page, Ciccone believes Davis should be allowed the right to refuse licenses to gay couples due to her “religious freedom.”

Earlier this summer, in advance of the fall premiere of a new Muppets TV show on the ABC network, fictional characters Kermit the Frog and longtime partner Miss Piggy – who told MSNBC’s Irin Carmon she is a pro-choice feminist  -- announced their separation to the public via Facebook, with the porcine half of the famous couplet kicking her beloved Kermie to the curb.
