Fiorina Skips 'Rape/Incest' Bait, Blasts Hillary's Abortion Extremism
The press's favorite abortion questions usually have nothing to do with the 700,000-plus terminations of preborn babies' lives which take place each year in the U.S. (Note: The real figure is likely quite higher, because reporting is voluntary.) Especially when the person interviewed is a Republican or conservative, abortion questions focus heavily on the fewer than 1% of all abortions which are…
Conservative, Christian Celebs Slam Planned Parenthood Videos
Culture
Liberal Hollywood might try to silence Christian and conservative voices but it doesn’t always succeed. To be heard, Christian and conservative actors and athletes have used their platforms on Facebook and Twitter to “come out,” so to speak, on hot-button topics.

CBS, NBC Refuse to Cover More Bad Poll Numbers for Hillary Clinton

NPR Censors New Planned Parenthood Vid; Hypes Abortion Mill Vandalism

Nets Hype Trump ‘Stealing All the Oxygen’ from GOP Candidates
On Wednesday, all three network morning shows proclaimed that Donald Trump was making it “nearly impossible” for any other 2016 Republican candidates to get any media attention.

Atlantic Writer: Ignoring Truth ‘Helps the GOP to Fire Up the Base'
NewsBusters readers likely are familiar with the saying “It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so.” Conor Friedersdorf thinks Republicans have a propensity for certitude about false beliefs, and that as a result they’re susceptible to “demagogues” such as Donald Trump.
As for why GOPers are frequently mistaken in the first place,…

Morning Joe Rips HuffPo for Relegating Trump to Entertainment Section
Arianna Huffington is no pachyderm, politically speaking, but like the elephant, she apparently never forgets--or forgives. Three years ago, Donald Trump called Huffington "unattractive both inside and out." Arianna has now returned the favor, relegating HuffPo's coverage of Trump to its entertainment section.
On today's Morning Joe, HuffPo's Sam Stein was put in the unenviable position of…

Nets Ignore Hearing on Sanctuary Cities, Illegal Immigrant Murders
In yet another example of bias by omission, the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC all refused to cover on Tuesday night a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing from hours earlier devoted to sanctuary cities and murders committed by illegal immigrants who benefitted from the policy. As it often does, FNC’s Special Report was there to pick up the pieces left by their network equivalents with a full…

CNN Hits GOP for Slamming Trump But Not Anti-Kerry Swift Boat Veterans
So far this week, CNN's John King and Chris Cuomo on New Day have both felt the need to dredge up the 2004 Swift Boat Veterans for Truth ads exposing negative aspects of then Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry's military service and anti-war activities, as CNN personalities have suggested "hypocrisy" in Jeb Bush and other Republicans condemning Donald Trump's dismissal of John McCain's…

On CNN, Montel Williams Blasts 'Black Lives Matter' Protesters
On Monday's CNN Tonight, Montel Williams targeted the activists who recently shouted down former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley at the left-wing Netroots Nation conference for his "all lives matter" remark: "I'm sick of the fact that we now have to think that this term only belongs to one community.

New York Magazine: Many GOPers Candidates in Name Only
There soon will be sixteen Republicans officially seeking their party’s 2016 presidential nomination, but Gabriel Sherman probably would replace “officially” with "nominally." In a Sunday post, Sherman suggested that many of those sixteen are CINOs (Candidates in Name Only) who really are running for the title of big-bucks “political celebrity.” He opined that “when it comes to presidential…

Russert also hyped that "this is…
