“Killin’ it” should never be a joke – at least not an abortion joke. A “Madeleine Roe” recently wrote out “20 Tips for Your First Abortion” for literary magazine Paper Darts. From comparing the cost of a Beyoncé concert to an abortion to joking about “killin’ it,” many of the tips were crass and crude – as well as heartbreakingly sad.

If you're a Democrat serving in the military overseas, you may have to pay a pretty penny if you want to phone in and caucus in Saturday's Nevada caucus.

The network morning shows on Thursday were beside themselves with glee over the White House announcing President Obama would travel to Cuba in March. While all three broadcasts hailed the upcoming “historic trip,” it was ABC’s Good Morning America that went the extra mile by proclaiming the President was more popular than singer Beyonce on the island nation.  

Liberal anchor Carol Costello shamelessly touted two ads from Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders on Wednesday's CNN Newsroom. Costello turned to a guest who works for a "group that creates television and radio ads," but failed to mention that his firm mainly deals with Democratic candidates. She prompted him to describe why Clinton's "ad is so effective." Later, Costello heralded the ad from the…

Well, it ain’t “Macaca,” or a racist rock in the Texas wilderness, but you can’t say The Washington Post isn’t trying. Instead of George Allen or Rick Perry, the target is Jeb Bush.

Only CBS This Morning on Thursday covered the ongoing saga of a liberal University of Missouri professor who called for “muscle” in an attempt to suppress free speech. ABC and NBC have not been interested in the case of Melissa Click and her caught-on-camera rant against a student journalist who filmed her in a public space. CBS’s Anna Werner interviewed the professor and wondered, “Were you…

On Thursday, both NBC’s Today and ABC’s Good Morning America censored any mention of the controversy swirling around President Obama’s decision to skip the funeral of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia scheduled for Saturday. To its credit, CBS This Morning offered a full report on widely criticized move.

Liberal New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman is displeased with many of the “leading candidates” in the 2016 election, but made a nasty off-topic remark to bash conservative tax reform leader Grover Norquist in a recent column. Norquist is president of Americans for Tax Reform (ATR), a taxpayer advocacy group. The organization’s mission is to “limit the size and cost of government” and to…

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…

The holes in the vetting system for Syrian refugees are not a popular topic in the Huffington Post or on former Daily Show correspondent Samantha Bee’s new show. The Huffington Post linked to Upworthy’s article about the second episode of Full Frontal with Samantha Bee Monday in which Bee showcased her trip to Jordan where she interviewed Syrian refugees.

Mic.com’s Zak Cheney-Rice rolled his eyes at frustration from parents whose kids were shown a racially charged cartoon meant to show the unfairness of white privilege. Kids at Glen Allen High School in Glen Allen, Virginia this month were shown “The Unequal Opportunity Race” in honor of Black History Month.

Some analysts have pointed out that it’d be risky for Republicans to preemptively block anyone President Obama nominates to succeed Antonin Scalia on the Supreme Court, but that approach wouldn’t necessarily end when Obama leaves office. Washington Monthly blogger Martin Longman believes that if in 2017 a Democrat becomes president but GOPers retain sufficient power in the Senate, they’ll just…

On today's on Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough flatly stated that people that know him, as in his family, know whom he's voting for, and "it's not Donald Trump!" That's newsworthy because Scarborough has been accused by many, as here, here and here, of being in the tank for Trump. Clashing with Time's Joe Klein, Scarborough said that, while not supporting Trump, he and Mika Brzezinski have simply…
