On Wednesday's NBC Nightly News, anchor Brian Williams accused a federal judge of bringing politics into the judicial process simply by ordering the Justice Department to explain controversial comments President Obama made against the Supreme Court: "Politics are ideally supposed to stay out of the nation's courtrooms, but that's not what happened this week in a federal courtroom in Texas…

You're going to have a hard time convincing me that Associated Press CEO Dean Singleton's lavish praise of President Barack Obama noted earlier this week by Matt Sheffield at NewsBusters hasn't trickled down to the beat reporters and affected their day-to-day coverage. Take this opening sentence from the AP's Christopher Rugaber written shortly after the Department of Labor released its…

ABC and NBC could barely contain their contempt while covering the controversy over the all-male Augusta golf club. Katie Couric, guest anchoring Good Morning America on Thursday, lectured the organization hosting the Masters tournament to allow a woman in: "I mean, really. Get with the program. Seriously?" Reporter Josh Elliott lamented that Augusta has remained "cloistered," "a secretive…

Wishful thinking on behalf of Obama? New York Times White House reporter Jackie Calmes fancies that criticizing the Supreme Court might be a winning issue for Democrats for a change, in Thursday's "Court's Potential to Goad Voters Swings to Democrats." For decades, Republicans have railed every four years against the Supreme Court and its perceived liberal activism to spur conservatives to…

Those who adhere to the gospel of liberal sexuality fall into two different camps when they discuss Jesus. Religious feminists argue that Jesus Christ had a relationship with Mary Magdalene. Religious homosexuals, on the other hand, portray Christ as gay, as the Huffington Post’s Kittredge Cherry did in a piece titled “Queer Christ Arises to Liberate and Heal.” Cherry, herself a lesbian…

The reason tea partiers carried signs saying "Read the Constitution!" was that we were hoping people would read the Constitution. Alas, we still have Rick Santorum saying Obamacare is the same as what he calls "Romneycare"; the otherwise brilliant Mickey Kaus sniffing that if states can mandate insurance purchases, then we're "not talking about some basic individual liberty to not purchase…

Paul Bedard of the Washington Examiner wrote a piece entitled “Democrats boycott Coke, Walmart over voter ID laws” on April 4. The piece reported the situation well, with one exception: it didn’t mention that one side of the voter identification debate is almost completely fought by Soros-backed organizations. The focus of the article was on a push by Color of Change, the Center for…

Unconventional energy is certainly an interesting concept, it's just not ready for the market yet. And the repeated failures of companies that have been given cash by Uncle Sam are continuing to pile up. And, it turns out, that the Solyndra debacle is continuing to get even more embarrassing:

As NewsBusters has been reporting since the Trayvon Martin shooting occurred in Sanford, Florida, America's press have predictably declared George Zimmerman guilty before an arrest has even been made with some actually calling for his head on a platter. On Wednesday, Zimmerman's attorney Craig Sonner appeared on CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight saying, "It's been open season on just destroying this…

This is how the Daily Kos folks say Happy Easter: a diarist with the byline "maf1029" absolutely, positively refuses to grant any respect to anyone holding those foolish religious beliefs. The headline was "I will NOT respect your beliefs...." He's a cradle Catholic who escaped the church with 'the icky wood carvings of torture and a 25 foot tall hanging statue of a bleeded and brutalized…

This could qualify as one of the craziest liberal rants ever broadcast on radio. On Tuesday, libtalker Mike Malloy, whilst shouting about the Trayvon Martin shooting, asked, "How long before there'll be a 'Stand Your Pregnancy' law passed where any woman who starts menstruating can be shot dead because she wore a hoodie when she went out to buy a box of tampons?" (video follows with…

Charlie Rose boosted two of the left's talking points about Rep. Paul Ryan's budget proposal and GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney on Wednesday's CBS This Morning.

Rose also…
