AP Strikes Again with Photo Bias: 'Rusted' Ted Cruz

So it's not as blatant or graphic as a gun pointed to his head, but a recent Associated Press campaign photo of presidential hopeful Sen. Ted Cruz shows the Texas Republican appearing with the word "Rusted" in the background during a campaign stop. The sign reads "Trusted" in contrasting colors of blue (Trus) and red (Ted), but Cruz himself is standing in such a way as to obstruct the letter "T."

Climate Group Dismayed that Students Discuss Climate 'Controversy'

Good science starts with asking questions, but the National Center for Science Education wants to replace question-asking with alarmist climate change propaganda. “Teachers’ knowledge and values can hinder climate education,” declared a study by the National Center for Science Education (NCSE) on Feb. 12, 2015. The study, released in Science Mag and promoted by LiveScience, asked more than 1,500…

Fail! O’Donnell Claims Scalia Would Want Obama to Pick Replacement

Liberal MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell on Tuesday played mind reader and asserted that the late Antonin Scalia would want Barack Obama to appoint his replacement. This claim is false. One would only have to ask Antonin Scalia.

'The X-Files' Just Confounded PC Expectations for Terrorism on TV

A show that has already attacked conservatives and brought us evil pro-life Catholics this season just portrayed terrorists in a totally unexpected way. The X-Files episode “Babylon” begins with a young Muslim man praying to Allah before going about his day, speaking Arabic with a friend and heading to an art gallery. But in The X-Files, nothing is ever as it seems and audience members have…

ABC, NBC Ignore Schumer Flip-Flop on Judicial Appointments

On Monday, the morning and evening newscasts of ABC and NBC failed to highlight, in their coverage of the death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, that Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer’s decision to come out in support of whomever President Obama nominates flies in the face of what he said in 2007, 18 monhs before the end of the presidential term, about vowing to block any Supreme Court…

Black Lives Matter Propaganda Takes Center Stage at the Grammys

The 58th Annual Grammy Awards had many moments to celebrate. Whether it was Gary Sinise honoring veterans or great tributes to many legends we have lost this year: BB King, Bowie, Glenn Frey, and others. Compared to years past it was a pretty tame event. But it just wouldn't be the Grammys without someone making a political statement.

Most Stories Omit Spitzer's Dem Affiliation; AP Waits 14 Paragraphs

Yesterday, Matt Balan at NewsBusters noted that only two of the Big 3 broadcast news networks covered "the assault allegation against former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer that emerged over the weekend," and that only NBC mentioned Spitzer's Democratic Party affiliation.

Blogger Charles Pierce: Anita Hill Should Succeed Scalia

Over the past few days, a great many left-wing commentators have weighed in on Antonin Scalia-related issues, especially Scalia’s judicial legacy and Republicans’ refusal to consider anyone President Obama might nominate to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court. Highlights have included Slate's Dahlia Lithwick remarking that "sometimes it seemed [Scalia] worked overtime to earn your hate. He…

Bee Savages Scalia, ‘Obstructionist A**' Mitch McConnell

New TBS host Samantha Bee returned for round two of her show Monday night and after a litany of vile remarks in the inaugural edition, she used the opening segment of this one to savage late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and especially Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell as she likened him to an “obstructionist ass” who’s desecrating Scalia and the Constitution by stating he wouldn’t…

Clinton and Sanders and Progressivism

Presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders seek to claim the "progressive" mantle. Both claim the other is not a true progressive. Clinton teased Sanders as being the "self-proclaimed gatekeeper for progressivism." Bernie Sanders said that Hillary Clinton can't be both a moderate and a progressive and that most progressives don't take millions from Wall Street. But let's talk…
