Networks Gush Over Obama’s ‘Fancy Footwork’ and ‘Dancing Diplomacy’
All three networks on Thursday gushed over Barack Obama’s “fancy footwork” and “dancing diplomacy” in Argentina.

Lena Dunham: I Get 'More Hostility' from Left Than Right Over Hillary
Poor little Lena Dunham. It looks like she’s getting a taste of her own medicine. After constantly berating Republicans – even comparing them to Nazis – Dunham is claiming she receives “more hostility” for backing Hillary Clinton than she has ever received from conservatives.
“I have received more hostility for voting for a qualified female candidate than I have ever received anywhere from the…
More Sanctuary City Cover-Up on Univision
Another major U.S. city has enacted sanctuary city policy and sure enough, Univision was there to celebrate, with a disturbingly uninformed and inaccurate picture of the reality of sanctuary cities in America.
Mika Meltdown: Calls for a GOP 'Crisis Candidate'
Get that gal a Valium. Make it a double . . . "Melodramatic" doesn't begin to describe Mika Brzezinski's histrionic hand-wringing on today's Morning Joe. Mika is in meltdown, on the brink of a political nervous breakdown.
Mika's recurring theme [abetted by the panel] was horror at the spectacle of Ted Cruz's call for special attention to Muslim neighborhoods, and the spat between Cruz and Trump…
Just in Time for Easter, Catholic Church Pimps Underage Girls on 'SVU'
Holy Week is a time for reflection, prayer, and bashing the Roman Catholic Church on network television, apparently. The previous episode of Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, "Manhattan Transfer," ended with the sex crimes unit bagging two undercover vice cops, a nun, and numerous public and church officials in an underage sex trafficking sting, but the episode left audiences with more…
CNN Panel Goes Nuclear on Obama Over Optics Post-Brussels
Moments after video surfaced on Wednesday night of President Obama doing the tango while visiting Argentina, the panel on CNN’s AC360 did little to contain their disdain for the President continuing to engage in lighter fare they dubbed “frivolous” and “shameful” in the immediate 24-36 hours after the deadly Islamic terror attacks in Brussels, Belgium.
ESPN Cries ‘Invasion’ After Cuba Broadcast Is Halted by Dissidents
Bob Ley, ESPN's longest-serving commentator, was in Cuba yesterday after the Tampa Bay Rays defeated the island nation's national team 4-1 in an exhibition baseball game.
Shortly after the conclusion of that game, ESPN had Ley report from a rather nice-looking streetscape in Havana (not your typical avenue in the workers' paradise). As he did, a demonstrator interrupted him. ESPN, acting as if…
Press Barely Note Party of Dem Prosecutor Nabbed for Seeking Hookers
It has been nine days since Ingham County, Michigan prosecutor Stuart Dunnings III, a Democrat, was arrested and charged with "15 criminal counts" in three different counties involving engaging prostitutes, pandering prostitution, and willful neglect of duty by a public officer.
The press has been reluctant to identify Dunnings as a Democrat in its news coverage, either avoiding the tag…
Repeat After Me: 'President Donald Trump'
If I were among the conservatives who have been throwing names like Hitler and Stalin at Trump, I would just start to practice enunciating the words "President Donald Trump" -- the sooner, the better.
Nets Neglect to Fully Separate Cruz from Ad Against Melania Trump
On Wednesday night, the “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC did little to nothing to separate Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz from the unaffiliated Super PAC that ran an ad featuring a naked picture of Donald Trump’s wife Melania and instead chalked it up to a “nuclear war of words” representing more “shame” in “their nasty rivalry.”
Video: Matthews Does the World's Worst Harry Belafonte Impression
During his nightly "Tell Me Something I Don't Know," Hardball host Chris Matthews let loose with a Harry Belafonte impression that was so bad you, well, just watch.
Pressing Cruz on Counter-Terrorism, Cooper Invokes 'Internment Camps'
As GOP presidential candidate and Texas Senator Ted Cruz spoke by phone as a guest on Tuesday's special edition of CNN's The Lead, guest host Anderson Cooper quoted the Anti-Defamation League in invoking the imprisonment of Japanese-Americans in "internment camps" as he pressed the Texas Republican over his earlier call for more police engagement in Muslim neighborhoods to preempt terrorism in…
CNN Analysts Hype Hillary 'Very Correctly' Ripping GOP's 'Poor Ideas'
Two CNN analysts praised Hillary Clinton on Wednesday, moments after the Democratic presidential candidate finished a speech on national security. Peter Bergen touted Clinton's "sustained attack on a lot of rather poor ideas that the Republican candidates have come out with about how to deal with terrorism — whether it's building walls — I think Hillary Clinton very correctly said...how does that…

There's no doubt that the current presidential campaign has been more antagonistic than previous contests for the White House, and as a result, one national news organization is taking action to train its correspondents in “hostile environment awareness.”
According to an article by Washington Post media reporter Paul Farhi, the National Public Radio system has sent its political reporters to…
