WashPost Columnist: Trump’s Rise Explains How Hitler Came to Power
This must be "Donald Trump is the end of the world" week at the Washington Post.
Earlier today, Tim Graham at NewsBusters described a morning "Acts of Faith" item at the Post by Joseph Loconte. Loconte compared Trump to the Pope-appointed emperor Charlemagne, who "ordered thousands executed" twelve centuries ago. Although Trump is famous for saying, "You're fired," he has not followed up those…

Fox’s ‘Family Guy’: Getting Gays Angry is the Best Way to Change Laws
Family Guy is many things. It is reliably liberal, it is reliably depraved, and it is hilarious. However, one thing it is not is above poking fun at liberals, while pointing out salient truths.

CNN's Cuomo Boosts Hillary Hitting Bernie from Left on Gun Control
On Monday's New Day, CNN's Chris Cuomo touted Hillary Clinton's attack on Bernie Sanders on gun control during an interview of Sanders supporter Cornel West: "She [Clinton] says... I voted for the Brady Bill; Bernie Sanders voted against it many times. He wanted to protect gun manufacturers." When West shot back that the Vermont socialist has "a D-minus when it comes to the NRA," and that Clinton…

Forget Obama Skipped Scalia Funeral, He Danced With an Elderly Woman!
All three network morning shows on Monday were thrilled by Barack and Michelle Obama dancing with a 106-year-old White House visitor over the weekend and happily played video from the President’s Facebook page capturing the moment. The fawning coverage on NBC, ABC, and CBS helpfully kept anyone from dwelling on Obama’s controversial decision to skip the funeral of Supreme Court Justice Antonin…

Columnist– Incorrectly– Calls Hillary the C-Word
Apparently, MarketWatch columnist Rex Nutting completely misunderstands the meaning of the c-word.
And by “c-word,” we, of course, mean “conservative.”
In his laughably headlined column: “Hillary Clinton will win because she’s the true conservative in this race,” Nutting liberally switches between the words “conservative” and “establishment,” arguing that both mean the same thing.

The NY Times Takes a ‘Hard-Line’ on the GOP -- But No Labels for Dems?
The New York Times continues to list portside in its labeling, going particularly overboard in the last several months in using “hard-line” and “hard-right” to describe conservative presidential candidates, their policy positions, and the voters those candidates are appealing to. Yet no similarly unflattering term emerged in stories about liberal presidential candidates Sen. Bernie Sanders and…

Liberal Supreme Court Agenda Backed by $50 Mil from Soros, Ford Fndn
In the wake of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s unfortunate death, several liberal groups — including the media favorite, People for the American Way — are pushing the Obama Administration to quickly nominate a like-minded justice. And the groups all have something in common. Money.

CNN’s Kohn Scoffs: Voters' Distrust of Clinton a 'Smear' by the Right
CNN’s resident gem Sally Kohn was a guest on CNN Newsroom with Carol Costello February 22. The political analyst and Daily Beast writer was asked to weigh in on Clinton’s trust with voters. Of course Kohn couldn’t do that without bringing up sexism, how much Trump’s voters hated gay people, and how much the right misleads the media.
When Costello brought up that only 12 percent of Democratic…

New York Times Public Editor Moves to WaPo as Media Columnist
It has been announced that the New York Times public editor aka ombudsman Margaret Sullivan will be moving over to the Washington Post. So does that mean the Post is now lifting its three year old decree against continuing the post of ombudsman? Nope. Sullivan is going to become a media columnist which makes one wonder if she will be supplanting Erik Wemple who in the same role is confined mainly…

Nets: Could ‘Re-Energized' Hillary Build ‘Impregnable’ Lead?
The big three networks on Monday rushed to declare a “re-energized” Hillary Clinton could be building an “impregnable lead” after her “big win” in Nevada. Good Morning America’s George Stephanopoulos, a former Clinton operative who donated $75,000 to the Clinton foundation, cheered, “That path for Hillary Clinton with South Carolina and Super Tuesday coming up, she can build up a huge, almost…

'Sound Familiar'? Comparing Trump to Ruler Who Had Thousands Executed
While some evangelical Christians are clearly up in arms at the way Donald Trump seems to be attracting a lot of support from Christian voters, the panic can result in overbaked historical metaphors. Former Heritage Foundation analyst Joseph Loconte is popular on The Washington Post website today for an "Acts of Faith" article headlined "Before Donald Trump, the sad history of when Christians…

Mika Brzezinski: A Reporter Has Hillary Wall Street Speech Transcripts
Early Saturday morning, while covering the upcoming Nevada Democratic Party caucuses, co-host Mika Brzezinski claimed on MSNBC's Morning Joe show that a "print reporter" has "actual transcripts" of certain of Hillary Clinton's paid speeches to financial firms.
This naturally leads to the question of whether we'll ever actually see the words Mrs. Clinton spoke which typically "earned" her roughly…
