LA Times Censors Pro-Life March; Hypes 12 Protesting Catholic Church

The Catholic League's Bill Donohue blasted the L.A. Times in a Tuesday press release for hyping the recent protest of a dozen left-wing protesters objecting to Pope Francis's decision to canonize 18th-century missionary Juinipero Serra. By contrast, the liberal newspaper failed to cover the thousands of pro-lifers who marched in Los Angeles on January 17, 2015.

Jewish Journalist Labeled Climate ‘Denier,' Bullied Online

British journalist David Rose is not a global warming denier. He said it is his belief that the world is warming and “that carbon dioxide produced by mankind IS a greenhouse gas, and IS partly responsible for higher temperatures -- and [I] have repeatedly said so.” Yet, ever since Rose dared report on the Climategate scandal in 2009 he has been the victim of hatred and vitriol from the…

Politico's Schiavo Smear: Jeb Bush 'Put Me Through Hell'

Politico magazine wrote a nasty anti-Bush article by Michael Kruse, who used to be a political reporter at the Tampa Bay Times. The headline was “Jeb ‘Put Me Through Hell’: Michael Schiavo knows as well as anyone what Jeb Bush can do with executive power. He thinks you ought to know too.” That's an odd spin for a man who fought for years to pull the feeding tube out of his own wife (and refused…

HuffPo's Ryan Grim Bizarrely Connects Anti-Vaxxers To Koch Brothers

On Monday night, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow brought on Ryan Grim, Washington Bureau Chief of the liberal Huffington Post, to discuss the fallout following Governor Chris Christie (R-N.J.) and Senator Rand Paul’s (R-Ky.) controversial comments on vaccines. Speaking to Maddow, Grim strangely connected the libertarian Koch brothers to those who oppose vaccines, arguing that “the only kind of overlap here…

Salon: ‘Parents Owning Children is Staple of Right-Wing Rhetoric'

After a nationwide outbreak of measles and other formerly-eradicated diseases have made a comeback, largely due to internet-driven fear mongering about a disproved link between autism and vaccines, a national discussion on whether vaccinations should be mandated by government or parents should have the right to opt-out has ensued.  Some politicians on the right like Gov. Chris Christie and Sen.…

Bruni: Anti-Vaccine Cause is the Left's Climate Change Denial

As many on the left rush to pin the anti-vaccine movement on conservatives, liberal New York Times columnist Frank Bruni pointed out on Monday's CNN Tonight that the cause is actually more prevalent on the left side of the political spectrum: "I think a lot of the anti-vaccine people probably would hate to hear themselves lumped in with the climate change deniers. But they're doing the same thing…

HuffPo: 'Check Your Married Privilege?’

You’ve heard of ‘white privilege’ maybe even ‘male privilege’ or ‘straight privilege.’ It’s a term liberals foist upon people who supposedly have better lives to the disadvantage of others, simply because they fit into a mainstream demographic. Mostly, it’s a grad-level way of saying, “Shut up.”  And of course, liberals being liberals, they’re always looking to expand the whining franchise (or…

NBC: Obama's Massive Budget Is 'Aimed at Helping the Poor'

ABC's Good Morning America on Tuesday ignored the massive new budget proposed by Barack Obama (and the tax increases contained within). NBC's Today, despite four hours of air time, allowed a scant 23 seconds. But in that brief period, news reader Natalie Morales spun, "President Obama unveiling a record $4 trillion budget on Monday aimed at helping the poor and middle class."

WashPost 'Manners' Columnist: Don't Eat at Chick-fil-A

The Washington Post's gay "manners" columnist has once again insisted that "anti-LGBT" businesses be blacklisted by all caring liberals -- in Tuesday's case, Chick-fil-A. A liberal woman in her 30s wrote in to say her liberal husband loves the food. "Is there any way he can enjoy this particular establishment without feeling guilty? For example, what if he donated an amount equal to what he…

After Rapping Rand for Shushing Reporter, Scarborough Shuts Down Guest

Rand Paul to reporter: "Calm down a bit here, Kelly. Let me answer the question." Joe Scarborough to guest: 'Let me finish my sentence and then you can be a condescending liberal Emanuel." The two responses sound similar, don't they? Two guys getting frustrated by their interlocutors' interruptions.  The irony is that Joe Scarborough devoted a segment on today's Morning Joe to rapping Rand Paul…

Michael Moore: My Conservative Critics Are an 'American ISIS'

Vice Magazine has posted a long, fawning interview with limousine leftist documentary maker Michael Moore, infamous for his recent Twitter attack on U.S. Navy Seal Chris Kyle. Maintaining the offensiveness, Moore found American Sniper to be a racist "mess" and discredits the heroism of marksmen like Kyle, calling snipers "chicken-shit," saying the U.S. was the bad guy in Iraq. And on his Facebook…
