MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell on Saturday said "Republican audiences do not know that most people on food stamps are white." This occurred during his network's coverage of the South Carolina primary (video follows with transcript and commentary):

It's not often that Newt Gingrich looks like a winner in The Washington Post. But on Saturday, Post media reporter Paul Farhi lined up a set of liberal media veterans and journalism professors to attack CNN reporter John King for walking into a Gingrich buzzsaw by opening the debate with his second wife's "open marriage" assertion at Thursday night's CNN debate. “Gingrich was clearly waiting…

MSNBC's Rachel Maddow, in a segment about GOP SuperPACs, blamed a technical glitch with a guest's audio on "some sort of nefarious conspiracy." "I'm assuming it's an eccentric billionaire with an axe to grind" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

Given the abundance of options at the network, it's saying something to name Martin Bashir as the most noisome of MSNBC hosts.  But so he is, in my book. Witness the low stunt Bashir pulled to open his show today, on the afternoon of the South Carolina primary.  Bashir superimposed photos of the Republican candidates in front of a Confederate flag image.  Lest their be any doubt as to the…

Other than the snide dismissal of conservative NPR critics, David Margolick's Vanity Fair story on NPR really captured how much Juan Williams was despised by his NPR colleagues – and NPR listeners. Simply to anticipate such listener outrage, he wrote, one NPR editor created a kind of “Juan Williams Watch,” tuning in Fox regularly to hear, as she put it, whatever “stupid cockamamie” thing he…

Schlockumentary filmmaker Michael Moore said recently that America was "founded on genocide and built on the backs of slaves." This disgusting statement was made at the same January 12 Symposium on Poverty at which he claimed older whites who didn't vote for Barack Obama in 2008 were racist (video follows with transcript and commentary):

This past week, Fox News political analyst Juan Williams was treated in a strikingly harsh and condescending manner. It happened not during Monday night's GOP presidential debate but rather two days later on Daily Kos, wherein a (black) blogger charged Williams with being a sellout and far, far worse. As usual, each headline is preceded by the blogger's name or pseudonym.

Bill Moyers returned this month to PBS stations to once again peddle his far-left hatred of conservatives. On Friday night he took to HBO to discredit the Republican presidential field with the first refuge of liberals unable to sustain an argument: racial smears. To Bill Maher’s delight, Moyers charged “the delusional fringe has come in from the margin and runs” the Republican Party before…

HBO’s Bill Maher said Friday that members of the Tea Party support Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich because he’s racist like them. Fortunately for the small portion of Real Time viewers with a brain, the Daily Caller’s Matt Lewis was there to set the ignorant host straight (video follows with transcribed highlights and commentary):

All eyes are on South Carolina today. Can Newt Gingrich overcome last week's poll plummet and upset Mitt Romney's rise? How will Ron Paul and Rick Santorum do? Will anyone do so poorly that another suspended candidacy will result leaving only three? Anything else you want to discuss?

It's a busy sports weekend, but all eyes will be on the NFL conference championships Sunday to see who'll go to the Super Bowl. Can the 49ers pull off one of the greatest single season turnarounds by beating the Giants? Can the Ravens beat the odds with a win over the mighty Patriots? Anything else you want to chat about sportswise?

Pete Yost's Friday evening story at the Associated Press, also known to yours truly as the Administration's Press, on the latest development in the Operation Fast and Furious scandal (that's my word, certainly not Yost's) has a "this is a boring story, don't read it" headline ("Prosecutor intends to take 5th if called in probe"), followed by an opening sentence which acts as if it has nothing…

In a delicious example of irony, NPR’s Nina Totenberg on Friday falsely claimed that there were more people on food stamps under George W. Bush than are using the food assistance program today. This marvelously came seconds before she told the panel of PBS’s Inside Washington that “facts don’t matter” to Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich (video follows with transcript and…

Last April, when the story was still hot that National Public Radio had deeply embarrassed itself when two of its fundraisers were caught on tape pandering to two men they thought were radical Muslim leftists eager to donate, David Margolick of the liberal glossy Vanity Fair called and interviewed me for more than an hour about NPR. Now, at this late date, the NPR-defending article appeared. I…
