Venezuelan Dictator Threatens to Send CNN Packing for Reporting His Th

We're not always the biggest fans of CNN, but when they've provoked the ire of a leftist dictator, we have to give props. Reuters is reporting that Venezuelan despot Nicolas Maduro is threatening to expel CNN reporters from his country for daring to, well, do their jobs and report the news (h/t TV Newser; emphasis mine):

Only CBS Hits NYC's Lefty Mayor for Reckless Speeding After Lecturing

 Just days after New York City's prominent liberal mayor instructed local drivers to be more responsible, Bill de Blasio's motorcade was caught on camera speeding, weaving in and out of lanes and blowing through stop signs. On the networks, however, only CBS This Morning bothered to cover the story. Norah O'Donnell began by suggesting that de Blasio "could be in for a bumpy ride" and…

Texas Tribune Downplays Video Proving Left-wing Voter Fraud in Lone St

As predicted by Bryan Preston of the PJ Tatler, the supposedly non-partisan Texas Tribune downplayed the story about the Project Veritas video showing Battleground Texas illegally using voter registration information. How did The Texas Tribune do that? By bizarrely makiing the focus of their deflect story the Texas Secretary of State, rather than the video itself. Here is Preston's detailed…

Michelle Obama: ‘Young People Are Knuckleheads,’ So They Need Obam

First Lady Michelle Obama insulted the young people of America during an appearance on Thursday night’s Tonight Show. Host Jimmy Fallon asked her why young people should sign up for ObamaCare if they can’t afford it, and Mrs. Obama struck a condescending note in her response. [Video below.

Kirsten Powers on Working for Fox: 'It's Been Good for Me,' Got Me Out

In an interview with Carl Cannon of Real Clear Politics, Daily Beast columnist and Fox News contributor Kirsten Powers said of working at the network: "It's been good for me because I – before that I lived in a real liberal bubble, you know?

Given Ukraine, Mika Blasts People Making Money at Olympics—But Omit

What's missing from this list of people Mika Brzezinski blasted on today's Morning Joe for "making a lot of money at the Olympics" while Vladimir Putin's suppression of democracy in the Ukraine unfolds: "the people performing there, the people competing there, the people sponsoring there"? Did somebody say NBC, Mika's own parent network? Give that guy a gold medal!  To whom does Mika think "…

NY Times Hails New Job for Matt Taibbi: No Leftist Label or Mention of

The New York Times defined it as newsworthy that Rolling Stone's hard-left fancifier-fulminator Matt Taibbi is taking a new job with Pierre Omidyar's First Look Media. The headline was bland: "Start-Up Site Hires Critic of Wall St." The Times had no ideological label except "fierce critic of Wall Street." That's probably about the label Karl Marx would get if he wrote today. The account was…

Bill Maher Hammers MSNBC for 'Turning Into Fox News

One way the MSNBC cable channel can tell it's in trouble is when liberal comedian Bill Maher -- host of the Friday night HBO program Real Time who almost got his own show on the "Lean Forward" network -- posts a tweet accusing you of “turning into Fox News” and stating that the channel has “stopped leaning forward” since “Bridgegate has become your Benghazi.” “I'm no good at being noble,”…

Coulter Column | New ObamaCare Promise: If You Like Your Life, You Can

Liberals are winning wild praise for their candor in admitting problems with Obamacare. It shows you the level of honesty people have come to expect of our liberal friends. Now, liberals are applauded for not lying through their teeth about something. What are they supposed to say? This Obamacare website is fantastic! And really, haven't you already read all the magazines in your current…

Column: Dredging Up 1990s Clinton Sex Scandals Is NOT a Path to Victor

Kathleen Willey is back. For people who have forgotten, she is the former volunteer aide to President Bill Clinton who claims he sexually harassed her 20 years ago. She wrote a book about it called "Target: Caught in the Crosshairs of Bill and Hillary Clinton." What, you say you didn't read it? Neither, it seems, did most of America, which long ago yawned at Bill Clinton's exploits and…

MSNBC’s Hayes Promotes Petition Drive for Chris Christie Resignation

If there was any doubt that MSNBC is a mouthpiece for liberal activism, Chris Hayes should have erased it on Wednesday’s edition of his program All In. Hayes was discussing MSNBC’s favorite current topic – the Chris Christie “Bridgegate” saga – with Dan Cantor, national director of the ultra-liberal Working Families Party. [Video below. MP3 audio here.] Near the end of the discussion, Cantor…
