‘The View’ Slams Kelsey Grammer for Wearing Pro-Life T-Shirt

Despite its many panelists, ABC’s The View has always pushed one view, and it certainly has never been conservative or pro-life. So imagine how the ladies at the liberal talk show reacted when actor Kelsey Grammer posted a photo of himself wearing a pro-life shirt to his Instagram account last week. The ensuing confusion over a Hollywood elite having a different view than their own, left the…

ABC, CBS, CNN Ignore Radical Politics of Speakers at March Anniversary

On Sunday, ABC's Good Morning America and CBS's Sunday Morning followed the lead of the New York Times in omitting the extremist history of Louis Farrakhan in their coverage of the "Justice or Else" rally marking the 20h anniversary of the Million Man March.

Will CNN Treat the Democrats the Same Way They Treated GOP? No!

If CNN wants to be balanced in how it moderates the upcoming Democratic debate on Tuesday, it will ask questions that prompt the candidates on stage to fight with one another, because that’s exactly how they handled the GOP debate back on September 16. Of the 74 total questions asked by CNN’s debate moderators at the GOP debate, 55 of them (74 percent) were framed to get Republican candidates to…

In the weeks since his infamous confrontation with Donald Trump, Univision/Fusion anchor Jorge Ramos has been doing his best to make sure his grievance narrative remains fresh in the minds of the mainstream media. However, the statements he makes while continuing to milk the incident reveal inconsistencies that cannot go unexamined.

Incredibly Lame 'No Labels' Mascot Reveals Self as Complete Jerk

Your humble correspondent has a lot of respect for Joe Lieberman so I am giving him the benefit of the doubt that he knew nothing about the background of the incredibly lame 'No Labels' mascot at the "Problem Solver Convention" which has attracted a number of major presidential candidates. If it were just a matter of the mascot being over the top lame, it would be merely funny. However, the idiot…

ABC Oil Drama Teaches Betrayal Is ‘Just Business’

It was obvious from the start of ABC’s new drama, Blood & Oil, that Hap Briggs (the “Baron of the Bakken”) would turn out to be ruthless and conniving, no matter how charming he might seem. After all, he’s an oil man and the media just love (to hate) them. In prior episodes Briggs appeared to admire Billy LeFever’s tenacity and mind for the oil business. He even seemed to have taken Billy “…

CBS News Wishes 'Happy 40th Wedding Anniversary' to the Clintons

CBS News may not be in the habit of celebrating wedding anniversaries on its Twitter page. George H.W. Bush and Barbara Bush celebrated their 70th anniversary in January (didn't find a tweet or online article from CBS News), but it celebrated Bill and Hillary Clinton's "rocky union" today. CBS also posted both husband and wife’s sappy anniversary tweets from Sunday.
