How Woke Comedy Is Killing Laughter in Pop Culture
Sometimes a simple news item captures a problem so completely it makes your mouth go dry. Consider the following headline from Deadline.com: "As Molly Ringwald Turns On The Breakfast Club, Dare We Laugh At Amy Schumer’s I Feel Pretty?

The Week in Media Bias History: Smearing Rush as Guilty of Mass Murder
The liberal hate flows strong in today’s edition of This Week in Media Bias History.

On Friday's Wolf show, CNN host Wolf Blitzer and liberal CNN political analyst John Avlon made a big deal out of the fact that Texas Senator Ted Cruz has been willing to lavish praise on President Donald Trump despite their presidential primary contest -- as if two politicians of the same party making up after running heated campaigns against each other were somehow unprecedented.

ABC, NBC Refuse to Highlight Democratic Opposition to DNC Lawsuit
On the Friday broadcast network evening newscasts, ABC’s World News Tonight and NBC Nightly News played the role of faithful PR representatives for the Democratic National Committee (DNC), giving legitimacy and life to a DNC lawsuit seeking to somehow avenge their 2016 election losses and lay blame on, among others, the Russian government.
AP Won't Admit That Comey 'Leaked' Last Year (Instead, He 'Revealed')

The Washington Post motto is “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” but Democrats, well, they are the forces of brilliance.

Eric Holder Howler: No Talk of 'Partisan Things' at the Justice Dept.
Former Obama attorney general Eric Holder made an incredibly sober and unfunny appearance on Comedy Central on Tuesday night's The Daily Show. Host Trevor Noah turned to the Jim Comey book, noting Comey trashed Trump, that "He's a liar, he mistreats women, he's not fit to be in office." Holder quipped back: "Well, Jim got those three things right." But what about what he got wrong?

Colbert Throws Stones in Glass House, Laments ‘What Have We Become’
CBS’s The Late Show host Stephen Colbert made an astonishingly hypocritical claim during his Thursday monologue, lamenting in an aside (entitled “What Have We Become?”) about the prevalence of sex-crazed stories about President Trump, his alleged affairs, and the unsubstantiated “pee tape.” It’s quite amusing that a lewd liberal comedian named Stephen Colbert complain about the culture and…
