'Fresh Off The Boat:' Estranged Sisters Bond Over 'White Cruelty'
I’ll never understand why slamming white people and only white people is considered a joke.

Piers Morgan: Biased Media Need to Show Trump ‘More Respect’
During an appearance on Fox News Monday night, former CNN host Piers Morgan offered a stunning rebuke to the media, calling out them out for being “in the tank of Hillary Clinton” during the 2016 campaign and openly hostile to President Trump after “their candidate didn’t win.” He then demanded that press show the commander-in-chief “more respect.”

DC Comics Butchers Beloved Hanna-Barbera Characters
If you were a kid growing up in the 20th Century, you might be aware of characters produced by the now-defunct Hanna-Barbera animation studio, perhaps best known as the pioneer for television animation, and defining the term “Saturday morning cartoons”.

More Blatant CNN Bias on 'Trumponomics'
CNN Money tried to have it both ways on “Trumponomics,” blaming bad currency news on the new president the same day it refused to credit him for any positive impact on the jobs report. On Feb. 3, CNN Money blamed President Donald Trump’s rhetoric for a weaker dollar, but ignored the possibility his rhetoric positively impacted jobs in January. Maybe, that’s why Trump and others have dubbed CNN “…
False Claim about Gorsuch Highlights Need for Rigorous Fact-Checking
People will believe silly things when it fits their ideological preconceptions. Even when they have been debunked and are contradicted by first-hand information and news reports.

Hillary's ‘Future Is Female’ Femme-A-Goguery
All that was missing from Hillary Clinton's video address to a left-wing women's group this week was a pink pussyhat and a “BOYS SUCK” T-shirt.
