Networks Allow Scant Attention to Clinton E-Mail Bombshell

The bombshell news that Hillary Clinton will finally turn over her private e-mail server, as well as the confirmation that her electronic communications as Secretary of State included top secret material, warranted a mere nine and half minutes on Wednesday's network morning shows.

Arrest of 'Special Asst. to the President' Gets Scant, Poor Coverage

My, the news about Barvetta Singletary's domestic violence arrest involving gunfire has been kept mighty quiet. Press reports have typically opened by describing Ms. Singletary as "a White House staffer." Several paragraphs later, readers learn that she is — or perhaps "was," as she has for now "has been placed on temporary unpaid leave and is banned from White House grounds" — the "special…

Conservationists Say Cecil Outrage Endangers Lions

The liberal news media and many people expressed outrage over the trophy killing of Cecil the Lion, but calling for trophy hunting bans could actually hurt African lions. According to The New York Times, conservation efforts in African countries could be severely crippled by the anti-trophy hunting sentiment that swept the United States in the wake of Cecil’s death.

Mika to Hillary Dead-Ender Dean: 'Your Partisan Whatever is Oozing

Partisanship oozing out of Howard Dean's wherever! On today's Morning Joe, Mika Brzezinski, exasperated by Howard Dean's dead-ender defense of Hillary on the email scandal, told him "your partisan whatever is just ooz[ing.]" You know Hillary is in hot water when even Andrea Mitchell had to report that there are "big" problems for Clinton on the email front.

WashPost: Parenthood Worse Than Divorce, Unemployment, Spouse's Death

The Washington Post reported yesterday that parenthood has a negative impact on an individual’s happiness.  Apparently, parenthood is so devastating that it’s even “worse than divorce, worse than unemployment, and worse even than the death of a partner.” Now what pollster would ever ask the public: “Which is worse? The birth of a child or the death of a spouse?” But along came Post reporter…

As she runs to hold on to her base against an openly declared socialist in the Democratic primaries, Hillary Clinton is declaring she intends to go even further than President Obama and his radical executive amnesty efforts.

Some Free Advice for GOP Candidates In Light of Fox Debate

While every viewer probably had questions they wish had been asked, overall I thought the panel's choices were fine. As one with some experience in responding to aggressive questioning from liberal TV and radio interrogators, here are some suggestions for the candidates should the sort of questions they faced last Thursday come up again.
