Climate alarmists can’t stop harping on the so-called “consensus” about the causes and consequence of climate change, so much so that they’re using children to shame “deniers.” Climate Reality Project, a group former vice president Al Gore founded, promoted a video of an eight year-old girl shouting at an opponent, claiming that “97 percent” of scientists agree on climate change. Liberal media…

The tiny northern Pennsylvania town of Dimock has been the site of a battle over natural gas drilling for several years. Some residents claimed the drilling contaminated their water, and they sued Cabot Oil & Gas in a battle that gained national news attention. Test after test failed to find fracking contaminants in the water, something the lawyer for those Dimock residents just admitted in…

On Monday, Charlie Rose used the insulting term “climate deniers” as a way to describe those who dare express any sort of skepticism of climate change propaganda. He asked, on his PBS show, if “climate deniers” have “gained strength?” Bill Gates responded that “the problem of climate denial is not a huge problem outside of the United States.” 

The special 6-episode reboot of The X-Files ended tonight and the title, “My Struggle II,” probably perfectly describes most viewers’ ability to follow the confusing new mythology of the bookend episode.

A mosquito-borne “epidemic” of Zika virus has spread around the world from Brazil to at least 9 other countries, provoking concern from health officials and those most at risk for the illness. Millions of people could be exposed to Zika, according to the broadcast networks. The virus itself causes fever, rashes, joint pain and red eyes, but scientists and doctors in Brazil fear it is connected…

Former longtime Tonight Show host Jay Leno returned to the deliver part of the monologue on Wednesday’s show for current host Jimmy Fallon (as the show was held in Los Angeles for the week) and Leno used the opportunity to pan Republicans but also the Clintons for their countless scandals, Bernie Sanders over his age, and Donald Trump for his disdain of Megyn Kelly.

Remember when cartoons were just silly and didn't have an agenda? Those days are apparently long gone. Fox's new venture into the world of adult cartoons, Bordertown oozes agenda from the title to the closing credits. The main character, Bud, is an overweight, racist, border patrol agent from the town of Mexifornia. If you can get past that then you are in for a thirty-minute deluge of insults…

Warning of imminent danger from man-made climate change wasn’t enough for climate alarmists. Now, a new study has warned of 10,000 years of destruction or more if action isn’t taken against fossil fuels. Left-wing site Common Dreams and The Guardian promoted the study published in Nature Climate Change saying that policy actions “in the next couple of years will have ‘profound impacts on global…

The Supreme Court dealt a “major blow” to the Obama administration and the president’s climate agenda late on Feb. 9. NBC, the “Green is Universal” network ignored it entirely. CBS and ABC gave the ruling short shrift. The Hill reported the high court blocked the “landmark climate rule for power plants” which would have assigned states drastic carbon dioxide reduction rules based on what energy…

Academic bias in favor of government is a real problem according to the professor who sounded the alarm on Flint, Michigan’s lead contamination crisis. That Virginia Tech civil engineering professor, Marc Edwards, criticized academia for its reluctance to criticize government and decried what he called “perverse incentives” preventing academics from criticizing government agencies that fund…

If the eventual Republican presidential nominee takes the advice of The Washington Monthly’s D.R. Tucker, he’ll choose Michigan governor Rick Snyder as his running mate, not in spite of what happened to Flint’s water supply, but because of it. “Snyder never gave a damn about the residents of Flint, and still doesn’t,” claimed Tucker in a Saturday post. “The Snyder vision—the Republican vision—is…

On Friday's Real Time show on HBO, host Bill Maher repeatedly used crude name-calling to go after GOP presidential candidate Ted Cruz. After calling both Cruz and fellow candidate Donald Trump "two a******s" in the opening monologue, Cruz was implied to be a "slimy, burrowing, repulsive animal" during a joke campaign ad attacking famous groundhog Punxsutawney Phil. And, in the regular "New Rule"…

Liberal propaganda ruins everything, even comic books.   The January edition of Captain America featured a reptilian supervillain named Viper who sounded a lot like Republican presidential candidates. Viper ranted about American exceptionalism and said, “Someone has to make America marvelous again.” He also complained about “overreaching government” oppressing businesses and asked, “Where in the…

At what point do journalists stop feigning objectivity and become bald-faced activists? Someone should ask Telemundo’s evening news reporter Vanessa Hauc.
