Jimmy Kimmel marveled this past Monday night at how the networks, which covered the New Year’s Eve celebration in New York City’s Times Square, found a new angle to emphasize, “and that new angle was none other than the human bladder.” Viewers of his ABC show were then treated to a compilation of clips dubbed “Pee Watch 2014.” Afterward, Kimmel offered an apt observation about when people don’t “…

On Wednesday, The Washington Post’s Philip Bump assembled seven charts to explain the national debt under Obama, and began with the assessment of Terence Jeffrey at CNSNews.com, a sister site to NewsBusters. Bump included CNS calculations of how much debt had accumulated per household, per full-time worker and per full-time private sector worker.

Washington Post art critic Philip Kennicott was brought in to denounce the closed-minded Islam-bashing bigots in Saturday’s Style section. By the end, Kennicott was complaining that religion needs desperately to be removed from the public square. Mayhem will continue without secularization: "unless we commit not just to leaving religious certainty in the home, but the deeper metaphorical thinking…

Washington Post media blogger Erik Wemple isn’t buying the media line that they are opposed to showing “deliberately offensive” images. “Compelling as these arguments may sound, they boil down to a refusal to show the world as it is, to explain how events have evolved. They also express the mainstream media’s long-held belief in the fragility and naivete of its audience.” But Wemple is…

Via Politico, we learned on Friday, New York Times executive editor Dean Baquet called a journalism professor at the USC Annenberg School an "asshole" on Facebook after the professor took a shot from the left  at Baquet for not running Charlie Hebdo's Muhammed cartoons. He punched low for a liberal: he compared the Times to a staid insurance company. On Friday, Cooper wrote a Facebook post…

Drum, of Mother Jones, suggests that Obama doesn’t have much competition for the “most liberal” title, given that the only other post-LBJ Democratic presidents have been the “relatively conservative” Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter. He claims that Obama definitely isn’t “some kind of wild-eyed lefty.”

Paris has been in lockdown mode because of Islamic terrorists connected to Al Qaeda.  The terrorists are now dead, and for the moment Paris is breathing a sigh of relief. In the pages of the New York Times there is a quote from a woman who survived the attack on the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.

It’s coming soon to music stores near you: the Planned Parenthood soundtrack.  TMZ paparazzi found actor Jack Black in Beverly Hills to ask their latest “gotcha question:” “What do you think is good music to play at Planned Parenthood?” To their amusement, Black recommended Led Zeppelin when “squeezing out a baby.” The clip aired during TMZ’s entertainment news show on Jan. 6. 

Three results returned in a search at the Associated Press's national site on "Venezuela" tell us almost nothing about that country's deepening economic crisis. An unbylined January 10 item reports on the visit of Nicolas Maduro, the country's de facto dictator, to Iran in hopes of "stabilizing" (i.e., raising) oil prices. A second unbylined report on January 9 tells readers that there's really…

"We think Texas was right to reject the Confederate plates, but that North Carolina should have issued the abortion rights plates.  How can this be?  Are we merely siding with liberals in both cases?  No." Methinks the two professors who wrote those lines in a New York Times op-ed appearing today doth protest too much. Their column opines on a case before the Supreme Court deciding the…

There was a shocking report this week about adultery allegations against Steve Kroft. Through a spokeswoman Kroft only denied one charge which was actually the most believable part of the story.  

The list of unhinged statements and rants coming from left-leaning journalists in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo massacre in Paris is getting miles long. Among them all, one especially sticks out. In one of the earliest retreats to twisted, gutless characterizations of the Charlie Hebdo terrorists, CNN's Christiane Amanpour, who is also ABC's global affairs anchor, called them "activists." Greg…

Despite the media’s narrative, the loss of a little baby through abortion is not easily forgotten, according to pro-life leaders. Dr. Alveda C. King, pro-life activist and niece of Martin Luther King, Jr., and others spoke at a Washington, D.C. press conference Jan. 8 to launch “Healing the Shockwaves of Abortion,” a year-long initiative of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign to reach out to…

The Santa Barbara News-Press building has been vandalized due to criticism it received over a recent headline using the word “illegals” which, incidentally, described immigrants who entered and are living in the United States illegally.  It all started on Saturday, January 3, 2015, when The Santa Barbara News-Press wrote a front-page article titled “Illegals line up for driver’s licenses.”
