NBC Nightly News covered the Islamist terrorism with…

On FNC, Malik Shabazz Calls For Reparations 'For All of Our Blood'

Former New Black Panther leader Malik Shabazz, whose incendiary, racist remarks could fill a very long book, was interviewed by Megyn Kelly at Fox News Monday night. Shabazz has had a long history of establishment media indulgence, which explains how he can now meritlessly present himself as the supposedly respectable head and co-founder of "Black Lawyers for Justice." Fox's choice to give him…

Bozell & Graham Column: 'Fact Checkers' vs. The Benghazi Mom

When FBI director James Comey came before the press to deliver his bizarre proclamation that Hillary Clinton had lied relentlessly about her private e-mail server, but shouldn't be prosecuted because no prosecutor would ever dare take her to court, except prosecutors all over the country rose to say they'd do so immediately, many were shocked and angered.

Maddow on Motive of Terrorist in Nice: 'Maybe That's Not Important'

Translation: Maybe it's awkward and inconvenient, at least to a high-profile media liberal reluctant to condemn those poor, horribly misunderstood jihadists. As is her wont, Rachel Maddow likes to schmooze with late-night television hosts as part of MSNBC's strenuous efforts to brand as a major brainiac who lives to pontificate about politics.

Media Continue to Unwittingly Create Sympathy for Donald Trump

“Why Are Third-Graders Afraid of Donald Trump?” is the title of a “news” article posted Monday on the liberal Atlantic magazine's website in an obvious attempt to promote the notion that even children fear Donald Trump.
