NBC and CBS Aiding and Abetting Anti-Conservative Hatred As Networks I
The liberal media have repeatedly and deliberately turned a blind eye to the violent, hateful culture of liberalism, particularly their vicious attacks against those who advocate traditional Christian values and conservative principles. We saw it during their deceptive, romanticized coverage of Occupy Wall Street. We saw it again during their sneering, anti-Christian coverage of the Chick-fil-A…

It Took Only 20 Hours: CNN Upholds 'Hate Group' Label for FRC
Less than a day after a shooting at the Family Research Council, CNN dug up a 13 year-old FRC quote to support the "hate group" label by the liberal Southern Poverty Law Center. Early Start anchor Zoraida Sambolin said the FRC was "hate spewing hate."
"I want our viewers to actually see some of the things that this organization has put out there so that – we kind of understand why they were…

MRC's Graham, FBN's Varney Discuss Anti-Ryan Bias, Media Ignoring Nati
While the media "are treating him as a serious and substantive person," they are erroneously tagging Romney running mate Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) "as a budget slasher," which is patently false, NewsBusters senior editor Tim Graham told Fox Business Network's Stuart Varney this morning.
"There isn't any slashing [in the Ryan plan]. There's a reduction in [the rate of] growth" of government, the…

NBC: 'Ever-Outspoken' Joe Biden is Obama's 'Best Weapon' as 'Attack-Do
Reporting for Wednesday's NBC Nightly News, White House correspondent Kristen Welker discussed the "remarkably ugly political week so far" in the presidential campaign following racially-charged comments by Joe Biden, but then touted him as "the ever-outspoken Vice President" who "today doubled down on being the President's other best weapon, attack-dog-in-chief."
In a report for Thursday's…

Battered Republican Syndrome, Brought to You By the Liberal Press
Over at the opinion page of Investor's Business Daily, the editors noticed an all-too-common trend in American journalism: blaming Republicans for "negative" campaigns and not Democrats.
If you've ever wondered why you don't see Republicans punch as hard as Democrats in their rhetoric or in their advertising, this is why:

Journolist Redux? AP's Peoples and Politico's Summers Write Oddly Simi
Earlier today (at NewsBusters; at BizzyBlog), I noted how the Associated Press's Steve Peoples and Politico's Juana Summers could only find hundreds of people attending GOP vice-presidential pick Paul Ryan's Wednesday appearance at Oxford, Ohio's Miami University. Perhaps even more troubling is how they somehow chose an odd angle for their coverage, namely that Ryan has supposedly avoiding…

Pop Has-Beens Attack Romney for 30-year-old Dog Incident
It’s kind of sad, really – a novelty pop band with a lone hit 30 years ago trying to make political hay of an incident of about the same vintage. But Devo doesn’t have much else to do these days, and the left will welcome any help in its efforts to slam presumptive GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney.
Famous for their 1980 hit single “Whip It,” Devo just revealed their plan to release an…

AP, Politico Claim Ryan Rally Attended by 'Hundreds,' Local Reports Sa
UPDATE: In its video report, but not in its accompanying text, Cincinnati Local 12 News reported that the crowd was over 6,000, and that "a whole line of people were turned away, because there wasn't enough room."
It would appear that Politico's Juana Summers and the Associated Press's Steve Peoples have an unusual and nearly identical problem with math. Yesterday, they could have and should…

The New York Times’ Scorched Earth Attacks on Mitt Romney
The Jurassic Press is in full-on Defend President Barack Obama mode. But since President Obama’s record is indefensible, that means the Press is also in Eviscerate Mitt Romney mode.
The ideological godfather of the Press is, of course, the New York Times. Where they lead, the rest of the Jurassic Press follows.

Piers Morgan Foolishly Invokes FRC Shooting to Cry for More Gun Contro
CNN's Piers Morgan is up in arms again over guns, and tried to use Wednesday's shooting at the Family Research Council to shill for more gun control. There's one problem – the shooter was not obeying Washington D.C.'s strict gun laws.
"We've had only today the conservative Family Research Council, a shooting that may well have been politically motivated," Morgan said before asking Newark…

Chris Matthews's Tortured Logic: Biden's 'Chains' Comment Is 'Historic
Chris Matthews on Wednesday went to embarrassing lengths as he struggled to explain away a gaffe by the Vice President, offering tortured, confusing logic to defend Joe Biden's "chains" comments. According to the Hardball host, Biden's remarks to a largely black audience that Republicans will "put y'all back in chains" were "historical" and not "negative" or racist like when the GOP does it…

Letterman Booed for Depicting Romney as Male Model on ‘The Price Is
It seems that even the CBS Late Show audience has a limit to how much Mitt Romney bashing it will take.
On Wednesday night, David Letterman was booed for depicting the presumptive Republican presidential nominee as a male model on The Price Is Right (video follows with transcribed highlights and commentary):
