Liberal Activists Overwhelm Opposing Voices at MSNBC's Immigration Tow
MSNBC's prime-time "town hall" on immigration reform yesterday exemplified one of the more unseemly elements of media bias: brazen political advocacy disguised as an "honest conversation."
Attempting to pass itself off as a forum for voices on all sides of the immigration issue to elevate the dialogue, "Beyond Borderlines" featured droves of liberal guests who dismissed, admonished, and…

Daily Kos: Blame Dem Losses on Racism
Liberals don't want to believe that anyone would oppose the Obama agenda out of a principled stand against massive government spending and massive intervention in the free enterprise system. It's easier (and dirtier) to blame it all on racism. The leftist blog Daily Kos is keeping up that smear: "It's the black man in the White House, stupid." Michael Moore truly thrilled the blogger called "…
Keith Olbermann Falsely Claims He Never Called 'Cocky' a Racist 'Code
Sometimes Keith Olbermann struggles with reality. But he's apparently found a solution: insist that 2+2=5 and hammer with insults anyone who says otherwise.

On Wednesday’s Countdown show, during a 21-minute "Special Comment," MSNBC host Keith Olbermann warned American voters against electing Tea Party Republicans to power, whom he suggested are "unqualified, unstable individuals" who will take America "backward to Jim Crow, or backward to the breadlines of the ‘30s, or backward to hanging union organizers."

NY Times' Kate Zernike, Aided by Politicized NAACP Report, Again Ventu
New York Times Tea Party beat reporter Kate Zernike’s obsession with rooting out alleged Tea Party racism rolled on in her Thursday story, “N.A.A.C.P. Report Raises Concerns About Racism Within Tea Party Groups.”

MSNBC Disguises Left-Wing Organization as a 'Human Rights Group,' Tout
MSNBC's Thomas Roberts on Wednesday hyped an attack on the "racist" Tea Party by the left-wing Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights (IREHR). Roberts never once mentioned the liberal slant of the group, instead passing it off as a "human rights group."
