NPR Boosts Mrs. Obama's Trip to China, Ignores American Press Shut-out

National coverage of Michelle Obama’s trip to communist China has been overwhelmingly glowing and shamelessly quiet on Team Obama’s decision to allow no press contingent to follow along, because the trip was apparently “not political.” The networks dutifully repeated that with no protest, despite more than 30 tweets from the First Lady’s account touting her trip. But NPR’s Weekend Edition…

This week marks the end of Piers Morgan’s show on CNN and his run has been full of effusive praise for liberals and damnation of conservatives.

Kevin Spacey Brings Hollywood Hypocrisy to Annapolis, Demands More Mil

The Washington Post was apparently too star-struck to notice the irony of Kevin Spacey coming to an Annapolis reception to demand millions of dollars more in tax credits from the Maryland state government for a Hollywood company to make the program “House of Cards”in the state.

Maher Said What? Time to Stop Demonizing GOP, Starting with Rumsfeld

Bill Maher's weekly show on HBO is occasionally a pleasure to watch, at least to this conservative, because he's that rare liberal willing to turn sacred cows on the left into hamburger. Last month, for example, he challenged MSNBC's Rachel Maddow for her network's obsessive with the Bridgegate scandal she clearly hopes will sideline New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's prospects in 2016. A week…

Quite typically for a Sunday, the day of our Lord, The Washington Post is promoting the most unholy item it can find.

None of his movies have ever grossed more than $6 million in America, but they must like the title. They interviewed actress (and singer) Charlotte Gainsbourg,…
