MRC president Brent Bozell appeared on The Kelly File on Fox News Channel on Friday night to address how State Department deputy spokesman Marie Harf whacked Fox star Bill O’Reilly on Twitter.   After O’Reilly knocked chief State press aide Jen Psaki as out of her depth of Fox, Harf  tweeted that Psaki "explains foreign policy w/ intelligence & class. Too bad we can't say the same about @…

The new details on the scandal involving the agency that targeted conservative groups include the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA)…

Five years ago, Pope Benedict arrived in London to erupting controversy. Around 10,000 people took to the capital's streets for a rally against the Holy Father's “intolerance,” and as the Guardian reported, against “the child abuse scandal for which so many hold the pontiff personally responsible, for both accelerating it and then covering it up.” The abuse in question centered for the most part…

The Hollywood Reporter announced that Jon Stewart’s new film “Rosewater” debuted at the Telluride Film Festival in Colorado. Their headline was “'Rosewater' Director Jon Stewart Receives Hero's Welcome.” Apparently, Stewart is a hero when he shows up at film festivals where liberals cluster.

What's a sign that a liberal media outlet has made a disastrous hire? Having fellow Keith Olbermann publicly lambaste you for doing so. The former MSNBC anchor, now on ESPN, assailed Huffington Post for hiring a 9/11 conspiracy theorist to cover national security. An outraged Olbermann quoted the tweets of former football player Donte Stallworth, including this one: "No way 9/11 was carried out…

Amanda Marcotte's crusade against stovetops continues apace. TIME magazine's Belinda Luscombe today picked up the baton from the Slate writer, grousing about how "We Need to Stop Guilting Parents into Cooking Dinner." While less strident in tone than the ever-joyless Ms. Marcotte, Luscombe nevertheless has a flair for the melodramatic as she shares her annoyance at the prep time and serial…

Poor Mindy Kaling. Nobody told her that terminating a life just isn’t that big a deal, so the actress is demurring from using abortion as a plot device in her Fox sit-com.  Kaling, who rose to fame with “The Office,” now writes, produces and stars as an obg-yn in Fox comedy “The Mindy Project.” As an aside in a September preview in Flare’s Magazine, Maureen Halushak noted that “despite Lahiri’s…
