CNN: Omitting What Obama Said From WH Transcript 'Corrects Record'

Hollywood-Friendly FCC Invents a Whole New Area of Hefty Fines

Under Barack Obama, the Federal Communications Commission has walked away from any sense of enforcing traditional broadcast decency, a dramatic change from the Janet Jackson “wardrobe malfunction” drama of 2004. Two years ago, the courts consented to the broadcast networks’ demands that indecency is an outdated notion. (Liberals want to redefine broadcast obscenity as words like "Redskins.") But…

The Left View: Canadian Media Much Better Than U.S. Media on 'Terror'

The left-leaning viral-video website Upworthy preached that Canadian media were much better than American media in covering the shooting in the Parliament in Ottawa.

Ben Bradlee, Chuck Todd, and The JFK Scandal The WashPost Still Buries

Why do conservatives mistrust the liberal media? Much-celebrated Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee knew why.

Press Continues to Virtually Ignore Michelle Obama's Speech Gaffes

One can only imagine how much grief the national press would have given Laura Bush had she gone on the midterm congressional campaign trail during her husband's presidency and mispronounced the name of a Republican senatorial candidate, or if she had presented part of the bio of a Democratic opponent as that of the incumbent Republican for whom she was stumping. First Lady Michelle Obama has…
