First it was nonexistent weapons of mass destruction. Then he was AWOL. After that came Plamegate. So, what pray tell will be the next left-wing attack on our president?
Potentially, the manner in which the Vioxx story was covered this weekend by the New York Times gives us some clues…
Mike Allen (or at least his editors at the WashPost) are REALLY reaching now to keep plugging the Cindy Sheehan Brigade even after Cindy Sheehan has left the ranch. On the front page of the Style section is this don't-lose-hope-lefties puff piece: "They Are Stardust, And in Texas: At the Crawford Protest Camp, Growing Echoes of Woodstock."
The official "Washington Post-Democrat" spin…
Pizzey did avoid openly slamming the pontiff from the Left on his culturally conservative positions, but hinted repeatedly that…
Cindy Sheehan. Cindy Sheehan. Cindy Sheehan.
I only do that to satisfy what I assume is a "Cindy Sheehan name content quota" in place for any newspaper article written on any subject related to the War in Iraq, whether it's about her or not.
On the website for the Waco Tribune, you'll find an article about counter-protest to Cindy Sheehan's anti-war Crawford camporee…
Today's Washington Post features one of those headlines that make people who want to have an honest debate on illegal immigration shake their heads ruefully.
The headline reads: "Ranch Turned Over to Immigrants"
Would you know, from reading that headline that the immigrants in question were illegal immigrants and they won the ranch in a civil lawsuit?
Neither…
One of the more worrying ongoing stories is the arrest of several men for involvement in a conspiracy, hatched in California's Folsom prison to attack Jewish sites and synagogues around the state. What's worrying is that one of the men apparently converted to a radical form of Islam while in prison.
For obvious reasons, some attention has been focused on the California Penal system's…
John Tierney, who has taken over the retiring William Safire’s op-ed slot in The New York Times, weighs in today with a http://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/20/opinion/20tierney.html column comparing golf to other Pleistocene interests of men. A self-confessed golf-hater, Tierney spends his 800 words ringing through a series of "men are from Mars" cliches. His sole insight, from a round of playing…
New York Times Executive Editor Bill Keller drew headlines for the odd practice of writing a letter to the editor of his own Book Review. (It's almost like writing a letter to himself.) He's highly offended that anyone would suggest he doesn't have a passion for tough reporting on liberals. (Earth to Keller: how about that little Air America scandal?) The actual letter from today's paper is…
A.P. reporter Nedra Pickler was probably assigned to write a simple, short story regarding the President of the United States biking in Crawford with the Champion cyclist of the world, Lance Armstrong. Still, in a short 408 word essay, Pickler managed to insert the standard Bush-bash line. Earth-shattering? No. Unexpected? Not at all. Petty? Indeed.
Says Pickler in her story: "…
When they’re not outright telling us what to think, the AP sometimes points out the tediously banal and attempts to use that to influence public opinion. Take today’s John Roberts-bashing piece called, “Roberts' Writings Reveal Strong Views.”
Among his insidious “views,” are these; “In one paper for his boss, he slipped in that he routinely worked until 10:30 at night,” and “He…
But beyond her small physical stature, it is Ratner's smallness of mind that renders her…
On Thursday night's 11pm EDT The Situation with Tucker Carlson on MSNBC, Newsweek's Jonathan Alter recommended that President Bush meet with Cindy Sheehan, calling him "stubborn" for not doing so already, and contended that what the current "anti-war movement" wants from Bush is for him to be the "public mourner-in-chief" and to be "more publicly responsive to the suffering."
Alter…
Charles Jaco (whom older people might remember as "C.D. Jaco" from his days as a reporter for NBC and CNN) goes a little berserk in attacking bloggers on the Romenesko Letters page. It's one thing to protest the idea that the press isn't positive enough on Iraq, but he lost me when he started mocking conservatives' lack of "opposable thumbs," not to mention the crackpot Nazi smear at the end…
