But MRCTV’s Dan Joseph interviewed the hecklers after they were ejected at the Omni Shoreham Hotel.

NPR Boosts California's SEIU-Assisted ObamaCare Enrollment

Sarah Varney's report on Friday's Morning Edition is just the latest example of NPR's one-sided coverage of the health care issue in general, and ObamaCare specifically. Varney spotlighted how California's government gave a local chapter of the SEIU – a major supporter of President Obama during his two presidential campaigns – $1 million to enroll people in the state's insurance exchange.…

Piers Morgan Losing 9PM Slot on CNN

Faithful NewsBusters readers know that Piers Morgan's ratings at CNN are lousy with him typically getting trounced by Sean Hannity on Fox News and Rachel Maddow on MSNBC. As such, a report by Mediaite's Andrew Kirell Friday regarding the possibility of Morgan losing his 9PM time slot is not at all surprising:

News “Power Players” blog, the interview consisted mostly of Karl and Klein trying to get Jindal to criticize his fellow Republicans, particularly those in Congress.

After Weeks Bashing Republicans, NBC Declares Shutdown 'Unmitigated Po

Daily Beast's Gross Steamed at Starbucks CEO for His Shutdown Shtick

For someone whose job title is global business editor, Daniel Gross seems far more concerned with bashing businessmen for not toeing the liberal line than reporting business news. Then again, perhaps we shouldn't expect that much from The Daily Beast. Gross, who has slammed Apple's penchant for legal tax avoidance as being "too greedy for its own good" turned his attention today to Starbucks CEO…

ABC Does 5 Minute ObamaCare PSA Featuring Owen Wilson and Kareem Abdul

Although the folks at Jimmy Kimmel Live tried presenting it as a spontaneous skit, anyone with a lukewarm intelligence quotient knew they really were doing a five minute public service announcement for ObamaCare. If you think guest Owen Wilson was able to create all the charts he had AND get Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to join him AND have a choir that included the band Panic! at the Disco sing a song…

In Midst of War Talk, Networks Have Only Mentioned Obama's Peace Prize

Now that the Nobel Peace Prize winner has been announced, it’s a good time to notice which Nobelist doesn’t tend to get mentioned any more. With all the talk of war in Syria, after leading from behind in Libya, and approving the takedown of Osama bin Laden, Barack Obama’s Peace Prize is almost never mentioned on TV. Is that embarrassment for Obama? It can’t be disaste for Obama. It might be…

Chris Matthews: Boehner Losing Speakership ‘Might Be the Greatest Th

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews said one of the dumbest things he’s ever said in his life Thursday evening, and that’s saying something. When NBC Tonight Show host Jay Leno asked if he thought John Boehner (R-Oh.) would lose his Speakership as a result of the current government shutdown/debt ceiling debate, Matthews responded, “It might be the greatest thing he ever does in his life” (video follows with…

Chris Matthews Excitedly Compares Bad Shutdown Polling for GOP to 'Wat

  According to Chris Matthews, a new NBC poll showing bad poll numbers for the Republican Party is comparable to "Watergate." Finding that Americans blame Republicans over Democrats for the shutdown by a 22 percent margin, Matthews marveled, "I get the sense that this is a historic poll." Talking to Chuck Todd, the Hardball anchor prompted, "Compared to Watergate?" This was too much for…

WashPost Spins McAuliffe's Habit of Stretching Truth As Old-Fashioned

We've seen it with how the liberal media treats Joe Biden. The vice president's gaffes and erroneous statements are legendary, yet the press give ol' Uncle Joe gauzy treatment, celebrating rather than mocking him for his foibles and admiring his penchant for "retail politics." It's arguable that the Washington Post's Laura Vozzella did much the same for the Democrats' gubernatorial candidate in…

Tavis Smiley: 'Black People Will Have Lost Ground in Every Single Econ

PBS's Tavis Smiley made a comment Thursday that every African-American as well as liberal media member should sit up and take notice.
