Marc Lamont Hill: Terror Attacks Not ‘an Islamic Issue’ – ‘Some of Them Are Christians’
By Kristine Marsh | May 11, 2015 | 3:42 PM EDT

Presbyterians chanting “Death to America!” Methodists beheading people on video, and those hateful Episcopalian fundamentalists stoning women to death for being raped. The world is clearly in the grip of a Christian terror crisis. Well, no. But Marc Lamont Hill would have CNN viewers believe Christians are as terror-prone as Islamists. 

A CNN panel with host Don Lemon, CNN conservative commentator Ben Ferguson, and Lamont Hill argued about over the recent shootings in Texas by Islamic radicals over a “draw Mohammed” cartoon contest.

HuffPo Gay Editor Calls for ‘Intolerance’ Toward ‘Antigay’ Media
By Kristine Marsh | May 4, 2015 | 12:14 PM EDT

BREAKING: The media is not pro-gay enough. In fact, according to Michelangelo Signorile, the media is explicitly anti-gay. It’s hard to argue with crazy. 

The editor of Huffington Post’s Gay Voices, Signorile, is calling for the media to be intolerant “of all forms” of “bigotry against LGBT people.” And by bigotry, he means anything less than celebration. 

Huff Po: Don't Worry! Bernie Sanders Is the Good Kind of Socialist
By Bryan Ballas | May 1, 2015 | 12:04 PM EDT

For the first time since Norman Thomas, America finally has a viable self-proclaimed socialist presidential candidate in the form of Senator Bernie Sanders. However, the Huffington Post tells us not to panic. After all, Sanders is not just a socialist.  He’s a “democratic socialist.” That makes it okay.

Local Indiana Station Ambushes Memories Pizza to Gin Up an RFRA Story
By Tom Blumer | April 1, 2015 | 11:43 PM EDT

Something hasn't seemed right about the Memories Pizza story from the get-go. Now I know why.

In a Tuesday report, TV Station ABC 57 cited the Walkerton, Indiana business's Crystal O'Connor as saying that, in the station's words, they "don't agree with gay marriages and wouldn't cater them if asked to." In other words, they've never been asked to. The non-story which ignited a national firestorm is the result of a dangerously irresponsible ambush. The reporter involved admitted as much in a tweet late this morning:

Gingrich: Media And Left Part of ‘Lynch Mob’ Over Indiana Law
By Jordan Ecarma | April 1, 2015 | 8:53 PM EDT

Celebrities, high-profile executives and media outlets gunning for Indiana Gov. Mike Pence and the state’s new religious freedom law are a “lynch mob,” Newt Gingrich said today in a HuffPost Live interview.

Everyone from singer Miley Cyrus to Apple CEO Tim Cook has taken a shot at Indiana SB 101, legislation that the “lynch mob” has decided opens a universal door for discrimination against gay people.

Huffington Post: Indiana's Religious Freedom Law a 'Weapon of Mass Destruction'
By Bryan Ballas | March 31, 2015 | 11:11 AM EDT

Following the passage of Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), the Huffington Post began churning out anti-religious freedom screeds like an assembly line of hyperbole. The most outrageous of which came from the "Reverend" Susan Russell, who called the law a "perversion of religion into a weapon of mass destruction."

It’s remarkable how negatively this religious leader views religious history:

Entourage Actress Mazar: Italy Is ‘Backwards’ Because ‘It's Where the Vatican Is’
By Jordan Ecarma | March 19, 2015 | 10:29 AM EDT

Actress Debi Mazar thinks Italy has “a lot of oppression” since “it’s where the Vatican is,” she said Wednesday in an interview with HuffPost Live.

The Queens-born Entourage regular is the lead of a new TV Land series called Younger, where she plays a single mother who is gay.

“I don’t really think in those terms because I just think people should love who they wanna be in love with,” Mazar told host Marc Lamont Hill in the segment. “So I’m just playing someone, Maggie, who’s a person, who happens just to like chicks instead of guys.”

Mazar blamed Catholic influence when asked to comment on the recent tiff between performer Elton John and designers Stefano Gabbana and Domenico Dolce, the team behind the luxury brand Dolce & Gabbana.

Barney Frank: Hillary E-Mail Scandal ‘Not Very Intelligent of Her’
By Jordan Ecarma | March 17, 2015 | 5:30 PM EDT

Hillary Clinton’s e-mail controversy continues to haunt her as even her supporters admit the former senator did wrong by using a private server during her four years as Secretary of State.

“I think she made a mistake,” Barney Frank told host Alyona Minkovski on a HuffPost Live segment that aired today. “That was not very intelligent of her.”

Frank, who served as a Democratic congressman for Massachusetts for more than 30 years, was the first openly gay members of Congress. He appeared on HuffPost Live to discuss his recently published memoir, Frank: A Life in Politics from the Great Society to Same-Sex Marriage. 

Cincinnati Enquirer Considered Suppressing Coverage of Gay Activist Who Faked His Abduction
By Tom Blumer | March 7, 2015 | 9:35 AM EST

Monday night, a Cincinnati-area same-sex "marriage" activist posted on Facebook and tweeted that he had been abducted and was in the trunk of his car. A short time later, police found 20 year-old Adam Hoover and determined that he had (very clumsily) faked his abduction, and would be charged with the crime of "making false claims." In the meantime, news of Hoover's abduction and then its false nature made it to several national news outlets, including the Washington Times, Huffington Post and Buzzfeed.

In its two reports on the story Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning, the Cincinnati Enquirer posted the following introductory note:

VA Secretary Admits to Lying About His Military Record; Will Networks Report?
By Curtis Houck | February 24, 2015 | 1:06 AM EST

In an interview with The Huffington Post published on Monday night, Secretary of Veterans Affairs Robert McDonald admitted to falsely claiming in a segment on January 30's CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley on January 30 that he had served in U.S. Army Special Forces during his service from mid-1970s to 1980.

McDonald retracted what he had told a homeless veteran in Los Angeles by saying, in part, that “I have no excuse,” “I was not in special forces,” and had “no intent in any way to describe my record any different than it is.”

Huffington Post: Blame Christians for the 'War on Christianity'
By Bryan Ballas | February 19, 2015 | 9:43 PM EST

If you are persecuted in America for living your Christian faith, it's all your fault. At least that's what an expert at the Huffington Post Religion section claims in an odd piece that simultaneously acknowledges and denies the existence of concentrated anti-Christian sentiment in the United States.

The headline was “Christians to Blame for the 'War on Christianity'”. The author was Dale Hansen, a political blogger for the Detroit News.
