When it comes to gun control, Univision has typically been right in sync with the rest of the nation’s major broadcast networks, which is to say, it has consistently advocated for expanded restrictions on legal gun ownership.Univision anchor Jorge Ramos, in fact, has consistently argued against the individual right to keep and bear arms.

Colbert: Climate Deniers Don’t Know ‘What the F***' They’re Saying

Climate deniers apparently have a simple, albeit crass, message for the world: “We don’t know what the f*** we’re talking about.” At least, that’s what Stephen Colbert, host of Comedy Central’s “The Colbert Report” and soon-to-be host of CBS’s “Late Show,” said during his show Nov. 6, 2014. Colbert was mocking Senator Jim Inhofe, R-Okla, who will soon become chairman of the Senate U.S.…

But throughout the story, Robillard weaved a narrative that almost if not completely pooh-poohed the idea that the Anne Arundel County businessman had anything to do with his Tuesday night victory.

‘Raising Hope’ Star Cries Sky Is Falling on Twitter

Oscar Wilde famously wrote about a Dickens character: “One must have a heart of stone to read the death of little Nell without laughing.” And you’d have to have a heart of stone not to read the post-election tweets of liberal celebrities without at least a schadenfreude-tastic giggle.  Really, Hollywood’s election reaction has rarely been more entertaining. Daily Show writer Lizz Winstead moaned…

WaPo Turns to Left-wing Md. Groups for Reaction to GOP Governor-Elect

"Md. looks for clues to what Hogan will do," blared the Metro section front-page headline in Friday's Washington Post. But rather than examine what the average Joe or Jane Marylander thinks about the Republican governor-elect, the Post's Jenna Johnson and John Wagner turned to reliably left-wing interest groups for their thoughts and fears about an administration that is likely to be considerably…

NYT Blog: Wendy Davis Shows Media's Liberal Bias Can Hurt Democrats

Using a spin no one in the liberal chattering class would imagine, New York Times columnist Ross Douthat compared Wendy Davis to Delaware’s Senate nominee Christine O’Donnell. Both were ideologically mismatched with the states they were running in, but O’Donnell’s victory was a political shocker. Douthat said the media's bias on culture-war issues can lead to "fond delusions" like Wendy Davis…
