Fidel Castro’s communist regime executed hundreds of political opponents and drove tens of thousands more into exile; hundreds of dissidents today languish in Cuban prisons. Yet liberals in the U.S. media — who rightly condemned such abuses when perpetrated by dictators such as Chile’s Augusto Pinochet — inexplicably remain enchanted with Castro and his socialist revolution. For almost 30 years,…

Vice President-Elect Mike Pence was in New York with his family during the transition, and so he took his family to Broadway to see Hamilton, the hot hip-hop Founding Father musical  that people are overpaying to see. What resulted wasn’t exactly surprising. Rude, obnoxious -- but not surprising. But at the curtain call, Pence was singled out for an impolite leftist lecture from the stage about…

Fidel Castro was a tyrant who oppressed Cubans and brought misery to many for several decades and while much of the breaking news coverage emphasized that reality, some journalists couldn’t resist crediting him for supposed great advancements in education, literacy and health care. ABC’s Jim Avila went so far as to tout how Castro “was considered, even to this day, the George Washington of his…

Last weekend, MRC’s Brent Baker noted one joke made against liberalism on Saturday Night Live. Weekend Update co-host Colin Joke’s fake news included this:  “The dating app Tinder announced a new feature this week, which gives users 37 different gender identity options. It’s called, ‘Why Democrats lost the election.’” Naturally, the libertine Left had a fit about this joke

It’s fair to say that from 2007 through 2010, the mere words “Speaker Pelosi” gave many NewsBusters readers the willies. If some lefty activists and enough voters get their way, you’ll have the chance to hear a lot of “Speaker Obama.” On Wednesday, Ben Mathis-Lilley of Slate discussed and endorsed a Change.org petition calling on Barack Obama to run for the House of Representatives in 2018 from…

Glamour magazine recently celebrated its 26th annual Women of the Year Award that honored not only musicians and models and activists, but most of all they wanted to honor who they considered the most deserving Woman of the Year – their modern day feminist, pantsuit-wearing, twice-failed Democratic presidential candidate and icon, Hillary Clinton.

Did liberals’ reliance on so-called identity politics cost them the presidential election? It doesn’t matter, suggested Slate’s Michelle Goldberg in a Tuesday piece. Goldberg has no use for “the more illiberal aspects of social justice politics,” but thinks that in general Democrats stand for exactly what, and who, they should stand for. “There can be no going back on defending the tenuous gains…

Lefty rags like Mother Jones wouldn’t exist without dudgeon -- low, high or in between. But surely they can give it a rest on Thanksgiving? No! Thanksgiving is a day to get especially dudgeony for good progressives. (You know, the kind of morally serious individuals that would publicly compare a lost election to the 9-11 attacks.

One blog on the inanities in CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour's impassioned address at the Committee to Protect Journalists dinner against granting any respect to conservatives in the "news" media product is not enough. In a second look at the transcript, one can see how Amanpour complained that Hillary Clinton was judged by an "exceptionally high bar" and Trump an "exceptionally low bar." She…

Call it a big-league freakout (in tribute to our new PeOTUS). Or maybe mass insanity. I prefer to call it the National Tantrum. It’s hard to tell which group has lost its grip on reality more -- liberal activists or their brothers and sisters in arms in the media. The activists are protesting, marching, rioting and vandalizing their way across lefty America, because conservative America wouldn’t…

It's a hard call which is worse: Bad Santa 2 or its juvenile fans. By any measure, the movie, and its reception in many quarters, is proof positive that American culture is witnessing a race to the bottom. When the first Bad Santa was released in 2003, I described Santa as a "chain-smoking, drunken, foul-mouthed, suicidal, sexual predator. He is shown soiling himself in Santa's chair, vomiting…

The New York Times released a full transcript of its on-the-record chat with the President-Elect, and while the liberal media sensed a "softening" of Donald Trump's campaign rhetoric, climate skeptics were pleased he brought up the "Climategate" scandal that liberals would rather forget. Back in 2009, the Times refused to propagate revealing e-mails between climate-change activists (usually…

Conservative Google Play and Apple users have taken advantage of an app that is used to review media outlets – taking complaints about liberal bias to the grass roots, which have certain outlets a bit concerned. According to Digiday, since the election, many news publishers such as CNN, Mic, Quartz and USA Today have been bombarded by one-star reviews and citing “liberal bias” as their main…

Rolling Stone has a new article about how "sex workers" are supposedly so outraged about the election of Donald Trump that they are now actively working to oppose him. Is that for real? The magazine hasn't exactly had a very good track record on sex related stories after that discredited article about a certain rape on campus has proven.
