ABC's morning and evening newscasts, as of Friday evening, have yet to cover the Thursday announcement by Washington, D.C. law enforcement officials that Mikhail Lesin, a former advisor to Russian President Vladimir Putin, died in November 2015 of "blunt force injuries of the head." Friday's NBC Nightly News devoted a full report on the Lesin's death; while earlier in the day, CBS This Morning…

Univision and Jorge Ramos maintain total silence in the face of the assault of journalist Michelle Fields, and it is shameful.

Actual sales at the wholesale level in January, as reported today by the Census Bureau, fell sharply from December. That's to be expected.

Beginning early in 2014, shortly after its initial disastrous rollout, there has been a virtual blackout on anything resembling negative coverage of the "Affordable Care Act," aka Obamacare.
