Vox Writer: ‘Fever Dreams’ of Conservatives Distort Politics
According to David Roberts, activist conservatives are “bending the political system to their will” not by scoring policy victories but by taking their cues from “fever dreams” (i.e., conspiracy theories).
In a Thursday article, Roberts suggested two reasons why conservatives generally are more inclined than liberals to buy into CTs. One is that for conservatives, not trusting “the political…
PP Admits Sending Aborted Babies to Landfills; AP Plays Defense
The callousness towards human life at Planned Parenthood is such that it believes that the remains of preborn babies killed during abortions are just like any other "medical waste," and that sending them to landfills — or, perhaps even incinerators — is therefore "humane."
That's what one must conclude from reading an Associated Press report Friday evening which strived mightily to play defense…

ABC, CBS Trumpet Canadian Leader's 'Warm Welcome' for Syrian Refugees
On Friday, ABC and CBS's evening newscasts touted how Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau "personally welcoming Syrian refugees" as they flew into Toronto.

Bozell & Graham Column: We Can End Stupid Celebrity Cause Videos
Americans are infatuated with celebrities, but unfortunately for the Left, that love doesn’t translate into a popular landslide for the liberal point of view. Celebrity millionaires love to pose as compassionate citizens for the cameras, and it doesn’t matter if anything changes. It doesn't matter if they have a plan. It only matters that they emote.
NBC Plays Up 'Gasps' in Supreme Court After Scalia's Remarks
NBC Nightly News was the sole Big Three network evening newscast on Friday to cover the controversy surrounding Justice Antonin Scalia's comments during oral arguments in an affirmative action case. Both Lester Holt and Pete Williams spotlighted how "gasps were heard inside the Supreme Court this week over something said by Justice Antonin Scalia."

Vox's Sarah Kliff Goes Silent as Obamacare Co-Ops Collapse
For years, first at the Washington Post's Wonkblog and now at Vox, Sarah Kliff has been happily chirping away about the wonders of Obamacare. She has been perhaps its biggest cheerleader by far. And then the predictable collapse of its cooperatives hit and now poor Sarah has gone silent on the whole topic of Obamacare since November 19 when she sadly delivered apocalyptic news about the nation's…
Bloomberg Guest: Forces In Trump Fans 'More Animalistic Than Human'
It's one thing to dump on Trump, as author Rick Perlstein did on today's With All Due Respect, calling The Donald a modern-day George Wallace, and floating "fascism" about him. But Perlstein took things a nasty step further, denigrating Trump supporters in the ugliest terms.
Per Perlstein, Trump has unleashed forces in his supporters "that are more animalistic than human." Perlstein added that…
As Usual, AP Report on Deficit Omits Far Larger National Debt Increase
For a change, Martin Crutsinger's coverage at the Associated Press of the federal government's November Monthly Treasury Statement wasn't completely full of rose-colored baloney.
Crutsinger managed to note how auto-pilot entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare are bankrupting the country (not in those words, of course). That said, he somehow thought that highlighting a rare and…
CBS Exec: Stephen Colbert's Main Rival Is Recorded Prime-Time Programs
As NewsBusters reported almost a month ago, Stephen Colbert -- CBS's new late-night talk-show host -- has been losing ground to Jimmy Kimmel on ABC and NBC's Jimmy Fallon, a drop that includes many Republicans and has sent him to third place among late-night viewers.
However, David Poltrack -- chief research officer at CBS Corp. -- has stated that a more dire threat The Late Show faces is not…
Cosmo: Jenner ‘Marginalizes' Transgenders with ‘Gender-Normative' Talk
As it turns out, Jenner isn’t all the left hoped for.
After months of celebrating Bruce Jenner’s transition to Caitlyn Jenner earlier this year, the liberal media are turning on their former “hero” for not being “transgender” enough. Apparently, Jenner doesn’t say all the “right things” that a true liberal icon should – and so now, the left is eating one of its own.
Media CENSOR Poll Saying Majority Support Defunding Planned Parenthood
The media rushed to cover a recent poll showing support for federal funding of Planned Parenthood. But when another poll surfaced with the opposite findings, journalists looked the other way.
Days before the U.S. Senate voted to defund Planned Parenthood, a nationwide poll by Robert Morris University showed a majority supported defunding the nation’s No. 1 abortion provider. In contrast to other…
