The Washington Post goofed in a caption for a picture accompanying Sarah Kaplan's Wednesday article. Kaplan spotlighted the people who waited for hours in cold and wet conditions outside the Supreme Court in order to witness the oral arguments in the latest abortion case. The journalist correctly reported that Aimee Murphy of Life Matters Journal is a "'pro-life feminist,' a label she proudly…

The last two midterm elections have yielded big Republican congressional gains, yet most conservatives who cheered those developments now jeer at Donald Trump.

Squawk Box co-host Joe Kernen sparred with a Democratic strategist over whether or not Democrats believe in the rule of law. Kernen rebuffed strategist Steve McMahon’s claim that democrats believed in the rule of law saying, “Yes, the laws that they uh, that they kind of consider important.”

Whatever national sin America committed to deserve The View must have been grave indeed. As The Hollywood Reporter reminds readers, ABC’s soul-killing coffee klatch has been on for nearly 20 years.

Brian Flood of The Wrap boasted “We might have found the Kanye West of cable news.” MSNBC doesn't care about black people?? He was referring to fired MSNBC weekend host Melissa Harris-Perry unleashing a series of tweets on Tuesday bashing MSNBC boss Phil Griffin, touting her own show’s record of racial and gender diversity, and apologizing to former minority colleagues Toure, Karen Finney, and…

In an interview with “Caitlyn” (formerly Bruce) Jenner for Wednesday’s NBC Today, news anchor Natalie Morales protrayed the reality TV star being a “staunch Republican” as controversial, but not Jenner’s transgender activism.  

Appearing as a guest on Wednesday's New Day on CNN to discuss the presidential race, liberal CNN political commentator and Daily Beast columnist Sally Kohn suggested that Democratic voter turnout will likely be up in November with "stopping us from being Nazi Germany" as a motivator against Donald Trump, inspiring no pushback from co-host Alisyn Camerota over the hyperbole.

The Hill newspaper carried this headline on Monday: “Poll: Only 15 percent say they have benefited from ObamaCare.” Sarah Ferris reported just 15 percent of people say they have personally benefited from ObamaCare, although more than one-third believe it has helped the people of their state, according to an NPR poll released Monday, while 26 percent said they have been personally harmed . That's…

It’s never a good sign when a TV show brimming with critic-fodder isn’t winning positive media reviews. The Real O’Neals debuts Wednesday before regularly showing on Tuesdays, beginning March 8. Loosely based on the childhood of gay activist and anti-Christian bigot Dan Savage, the ABC sitcom centers around a “perfect” Catholic family – where the parents want a divorce and their middle child,…

Morning Joe, in the person of Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski and Willie Geist, took a victory lap this morning on the occasion of Donald Trump's impressive Super Tuesday victories. The theme of the opening half-hour: we told you so. Their point: from the day he announced his candidacy, the Morning Joe team took Trump seriously and said he could be a real factor. In contrast, the poobahs of…

As part of CBS’s hour-long special on Super Tuesday, Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan remarked that, sadly, she “believe[s] we are seeing a great political party shatter before our eyes” with the rise of Donald Trump. Moments after fellow panelist Jamelle Bouie of Slate blamed the rise of Trump on “the fruit of a lot of backlash politics, a lot of resentment, racially and otherwise,”…
