Heilemann, Wallace Rip NR's 'Against Trump': Helps Trump, Stupid

National Review was created by the great William F. Buckley, Jr., the brilliant pioneer of the modern conservative movement. Throughout the current presidential campaign season, NR has been a consistent critic of Donald Trump, whose conservatism it views with, to say the least, skepticism. And so it was entirely consistent for NR to publish "Against Trump," a special edition appearing today that…

Fox's 'Bordertown' Proselytizes Against Christianity

Bordertown is no stranger to controversy. In its very first episode, FOX's brand new animated comedy raged against everyone. From its unrepentant, racist protagonist to the worthless, whiny millennial do-gooder, no group was spared. At the time, I asked how long Bordertown could keep up with this shtick. Not long, apparently. By the show's second episode, Bordertown's writers had slipped into the…

Nets Hail Hillary ‘On the Attack’ But Again Censor Her E-Mail Scandal

The major broadcast networks offered on Thursday night five minutes and 15 seconds on the Democratic presidential race between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, but made no effort to mention the new details that broke this week pertaining to the highly classified nature of some e-mails found on her private server and instead trumpeted her “on attack” and “unloading” on Sanders.

Eric Alterman: Megyn Kelly ‘Really Just a Nicer Looking Roger Ailes’

The mainstream media give high marks to Megyn Kelly, but that’s because they’re grading on a curve, believes  Eric Alterman, who fumed recently about Vanity Fair’s February cover story on Kelly. Alterman contended that writer Evgenia Peretz’s portrayal of Kelly as “a brave truth-teller, a feminist hero and a bit of a liberal” is “complete nonsense. That any of these descriptions are even…

Matthews: 'One-Time Canadian' Cruz 'Tobogganing to a Halt In Iowa'

A gleeful Chris Matthews opened up his Thursday edition of MSNBC's Hardball exulting that "one-time Canadian" Ted Cruz was "tobogganing to a halt in Iowa" while Donald Trump surges forward in the polls. Matthews, who seethed with rage every time a Republican so much as joked about birtherism against President Obama, has no qualms in relishing the overhyped controversy as regards the Texas senator…

'America’s Best Days May Be Behind It' Declares NYTimes Reporter

You could have set your watch to it. When a leftist local, gubernatorial or presidential regime enters its final year after demonstrating its corruption, incompetence and inexcusable disrespect for law and procedure to that point, someone in the press will directly or indirectly excuse them by saying that the entity that person is running is "ungovernable," or that "its best days are behind it…
