O’Reilly Blasts Liberal Media for Smearing Social Conservatives

Fox News Channel (FNC) host Bill O’Reilly slammed the liberal media on Monday’s O’Reilly Factor for distorting conservatives and Republican presidential candidates in what he referred to as “tough times for social conservatives in America” thanks to a press that is “overwhelmingly left” and thus “simpatico, generally speaking, with the uber-liberal thought.”

PhD Student: HuffPost Writer Lied About Our Chat at March for Marriage

Huffington Post writer Lila Shapiro grossly distorted and in some instances completely fabricated what a pro-traditional marriage advocate told her during an improptu interview during the March for Marriage. That's the allegation of one Andrew Jacob Cuff in a post today at First Things. Cuff, an Orthodox Christian and a grad student in church history at the Catholic University of America,…

MSNBC Anchor Blames Mental Illness, Not Guns, for Aurora Massacre

How about that, it took MSNBC daytime news anchor Alex Wagner all of nearly three years to see the obvious. Appearing on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher this past Friday, Wagner and other guests were discussing the ongoing trials of accused Aurora theater gunman James Holmes and Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and how terrorism should be combated.

Baltimore Pastor: Rioters Found Only One Chain Store to Burn

What a shame: if only the economy had been better, the rioters would have had more name-brand stores to burn. Seriously, this had to be one of the strangest statements to come out of the Baltimore riots. On this evening's Ed Show, Baltimore Pastor Jamal Bryant complained that because of economic "disenfranchisement," the rioters "could only find one anchor store in that neighborhood" to destroy.

Remember Pamela Geller, whose “Muhammad Cartoon Contest” in Garland, Texas, earlier this month resulted in the deaths of two men who tried to attack the event?

Halperin Lamely Apologizes 'To Those Offended' by His Cruz Interview

Today, Bloomberg TV's Mark Halperin inadequately apologized for his conduct and line of questioning during an April 30 interview of GOP presidential candidate which came off as rude and racist to many who saw it — well, basically because it was. As Tim Graham at NewsBusters noted on Sunday, and as will be seen in the video following the jump, Halperin engaged in a "prove-you're-a-Cuban" line of…

WashPost: 'How Many Votes' Has Higher Black Mortality Cost Dems?

Well, this takes the well-founded belief that the left only cares about blacks because of their votes to a new level. At the Washington Post's "Monkey Cage" blog yesterday (seriously, that's it's name), Dean Robinson, an "associate professor of political science at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst" who is apparently not a regular contributor, explores "the political consequences of…

CNN Panelists Agree: Clintons Helping Tony Rodham Not A Scandal

It doesn't seem to conflict with her [Hillary Clinton's] job as secretary of state. If Bill Clinton helped out…

Huh? Actor Richard Dreyfuss Writes Rational Article for PJ Media

Which is weirder: building a flat topped mountain out of mashed potatoes or an actor who until about four years ago was a left wing lunatic but is now writing a rational article for the conservative PJ Media? When you humble correspondent saw the name "Richard Dreyfuss" as the author of an article in PJ Media, he immediately thought it must be a writer with the same name as the actor. However,…

Bob Woodward: Yes, Media's 'Sleeping,' Lost Its 'Investigative Zeal'

Mike Allen at Politico offered a snippet of Washington Post Nixon-trashing legend Bob Woodward’s commencement address at the Superdome for Loyola University in New Orleans.
