It’s that magical time of year when network television airs Christmas-themed episodes of their regularly programmed shows. In the episode titled “A Gay Olde Christmas” that aired December 5, NBC’s Will and Grace even managed to include a swipe at Santa Claus. Regular viewers know that from the first episode going forward, it seems the whole reason for bringing back this show is to bash Trump and…

Mocking Trump on SNL apparently has its perks. For Alec Baldwin, it was the perfect career choice, since now he is now promoted on not one, not two, but three media outlets: NBC, ABC, and NPR.

CBS’s comedy Superior Donuts is known for its liberal lectures on a variety of topics.

A two-front storyline about an American Muslim P.O.W. on CW’s Valor was presented in the episode titled “About Face” that aired on December 4.

An online story by a notorious sports media figure on The Undefeated blog suggests the NFL's sell-out to activists disguised as football players is all but complete. Capitulating to disrespectful social justice warriors, the league will give them nearly $100 million AND -- during the upcoming playoffs -- a platform for their political issues. Who better to break the story than Jemele Hill, the…

A new book is remembering the legacy of an abortionist whose services were “a kind of public utility, not unlike the water or fire department.” Except for that, instead of saving lives, she was ending them.

Wowzer! Taking the low road against conservatives and the Trump administration is nothing new for Chelsea Handler to do on her weekly Netflix show. But, on the December 1 episode titled “Dinner Party: Scandalous,” the Chelsea host may have sunk to a new personal low.
