Thursday's CNN Newsroom zeroed in on "one of the issues that needs to be resolved" between the U.S. and the communist regime in Cuba – namely, its providing a safe harbor for U.S. fugitive Charlie Hill. Correspondent Patrick Oppmann interviewed Hill, and noted that he is "accused of killing a police officer in New Mexico. He's accused of hijacking a plane 43 years ago to Cuba." Oppmann then asked…

On Morning Joe, MSNBC's Joe Scarborough raged against "chicken hawks" at think tanks like the Heritage Foundation argue America "needs to be all over the world...Let them send their families." Then Scarborough said we should return to a draft, so all Americans have "skin in the game" and politicians "won't see this as toy soldiers moving across the globe.”

The media would be all over a Republican politician if he or she refused to support abortion – even in cases of rape and incest. But a Democrat politician supporting abortion in any situation? Not so much.  Following the lead of an AP reporter earlier that day, New Hampshire journalist Paul Steinhauser asked Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) about his stance on abortion on April 8. Sen. Paul responded, “…

It took the Associated Press barely 2-1/2 hours to bury the bad news in the Census Bureau's 10 a.m. release on February wholesale sales and inventories. As of 12:32 Eastern Time, Martin Crutsinger's 10:21 a.m. time-stamped story was not present at the AP's Top 10 Business stories page (saved at my host for future reference), making it quite likely that the news won't get much prominence at the…

At most companies, when someone who's worked for the company for 46 years retires, they get a nice speech and a nice watch. But at a TV news network, the audience is subjected to the most extreme fawning, complete with the bizarre notion that no one has ever criticized the retiring journalist.

Though the networks have been silent on Barack Obama's latest slam against Christians, writer Mark Steyn unloaded on the President, Wednesday. Appearing on Hannity, the commentator responded to Obama's critique of "less than loving Christians" by highlighting the murder of Kenyan Christians: "This is a guy who's happy to draw general lessons when a black youth gets killed in Ferguson, Missouri.…

Sarah Wheaton touted the new "gender-neutral" bathroom at the White House as "the latest in a series of symbolic steps the Obama administration has taken to work the priorities of the LGBT community into its broader themes of inclusiveness and tolerance" in a Thursday item on Politico.com. Wheaton played up how "the newly designated restroom is an example of how the administration has been…

While CBS This Morning and ABC's Good Morning America both covered the latest problems with the Iran nuclear negotiations on Thursday, NBC's Today skipped the story altogether in favor of touting how President Obama "plays tourist" in Jamaica.

During an appearance on Thursday’s CBS This Morning, Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren was repeatedly pressed from the left about Hillary Clinton’s presidential prospects within the Democratic Party. Norah O’Donnell asked Warren whether or not Hillary Clinton was liberal enough: “In the Democratic Party, Hillary Clinton could announce any day now that she is going to seek the presidential…

Remember when the networks were hyping the fact that Rand Paul and Chris Cristie were sympathetic towards parents skeptical about vaccines for their children in February while ignoring similar statements in the past by Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama? Well, a well known figure from a prominent Democrat political family has gone off the deep end as far as paranoia about vaccines yet silence from…

Surprise! Millions of uninsured Americans could owe Uncle Sam extra this tax season because of Obamacare. The IRS began penalizing tax filers this year if they failed to purchase insurance in 2014. Obamacare, formally known as the Affordable Care Act (ACA), included an insurance mandate. Americans must buy qualified health insurance or face the larger of two tax penalty options when they file…

It  looks like the folks at Gawker Media might want to look into beefing up their private security. Over at Gawker's Deadspin sports blog, they actually posted a piece titled "The Police Are America's Terrorists." Greg Howard is obviously in a highly emotional state over the unprofessional police shooting of Walter Scott in South Carolina. He’s so emotional that he thinks that white people have…
