Media Ignore Anti-war Lawyer Keying Marine's Car
Since the media have promised the anti-war left really do support the troops, wouldn't it be news that an anti-war, self-described "radical leftist" was in court on Friday for angrily keying the car of an Iraq vet because he didn't like the military plates and USMC stickers? Jay Grodner keyed a $2400 side-to-side gash into Sgt. Mike McNulty's car. When confronted, Grodner berated McNulty, who was…
ESPN Anchor Goes On Vulgar Anti-Jesus Rant at Celebrity Roast
In the past few decades, as political correctness has taken hold of virtually every industry, folks involved in sports and sportscasting that have made racist or sexist remarks on camera have typically been fired or forced to make public apologies.

Try as I might, the Associated Press's bias is outpacing my best efforts.
No sooner do I extensively examine their weak week that was than I am delivered more media manna from Heaven, on video no less.
[Thank you very much, DaBird -- loved your work with the Celtics.]

Bush was mocked in 1999 for not knowing who the military dictator of Pakistan is.So why the media silence on Hillary Clinton's goof in thinking that Pervez Musharraf is up for election in Pakistan? In fact…

AP Buries Dem Label Plus Omits Claims of Corruption, Money Trouble
How thoughtful of the AP to give NewsBusters a Christmas contestant for “Name That Party.” Consider this post our thank you note for the timely gift! In this December 25 article, the AP buried the party affiliation of Democratic Philadelphia mayor John F. Street in the very last sentence of a ten-paragraph article about the mayor taking an extra $111,000 in pay raises that he rejected while in…
