WashPost: 'No One Said No' to Brian Williams After the Comcast Merger

The Washington Post reported on the front page Thursday that senior NBC officials "seriously considered firing" Brian Williams, and the anchor "failed to secure a promise he can return" later this year.

'Unknowledgeable': Dean Disses Scott Walker For Lack of College Degree

What a snob!  On today's Morning Joe, Howard Dean, a product of fancy prep schools and Yale, suggested that Scott Walker was unfit to be president because his lack of a college degree rendered him "unknowledgeable."

AP Reporter Prods Obama Flack on 'Randomly' Targeted Jews in Paris

The national media hasn't been very interested in President Obama's odd declaration in an interview with liberal friends at the website Vox.com that the Jews targeted for death in a kosher grocery in Paris were somehow "random" victims. The gunman told the media "I have 16 hostages and I have killed four, and I targeted them because they were Jewish.” But Obama said the American people should be…
