MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell Reports on Monday featured the Acting Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to bizarrely state that Barack Obama had introduced a "balanced budget." Unfortunately for Jeffery Zients and the liberal cable network, it is hard to hide the fact that the President’s proposal actually projects a budget deficit of $1.33 trillion for the fiscal year 2012,…

In a hostile interview with Rick Santorum on Sunday's NBC Meet the Press, moderator David Gregory attempted to paint the Republican presidential candidate as some kind of paranoid conspiracy theorist simply by voicing opposition to President Obama's reelection. Gregory hyped recent comments by Santorum: "You've talked about this in terms of why you believe the President is dangerous, that re…

Smug liberals who believe that conservatives are, on average, a bunch of mentally-challenged mouth-breathers are circulating this AlterNet piece around today by columnist George Monbiot of the U.K. Guardian: "Conservatism Thrives on Low Intelligence and Poor Information." Monbiot knows how to write a snappy first sentence: "Self-deprecating, too liberal for their own good, today's…

The entertainment industry has begun to exhibit an increasingly pro-abortion agenda. A Feb. 8 USA Today article examined the latest example of a member of the entertainment industry promoting abortion. In season 9 of the comic book series “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” the main character, Buffy, decides to have an abortion. The USA Today piece examined the circumstances behind Buffy’s…

Not everyone disagreed with singer Tony Bennett's pleading for the legalization of drugs in lieu of Whitney Houston's tragic death on Saturday. Arianna Huffington insisted Bennett's point was an "absolutely fair" one to make, and that the war on drugs has targeted minorities in America. "But the point, I think, is absolutely fair, that the war on drugs has failed and we're not acknowledging…

New York Times reporter Jeff Zeleny reported Saturday from Mitt Romney’s speech to the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in D.C., “Romney’s Record as Governor Resumes Central Role in Nomination Fight,” and noted that Mitt Romney used the “conservative” label “at least 25 times during a 25-minute speech.” Funny Zeleny should mention that, considering a Friday Times report from CPAC…

The front page of Monday’s Business Day featured New York Times media reporter Brian Stelter’s oh-so-respectful profile of MSNBC’s newest left-wing host, Melissa Harris-Perry (she also teaches at Tulane University, which impresses Stelter and the Times enormously): “At MSNBC, A Professor As TV Host.” Harris-Perry is not just another MSNBC host but will soon become, in Stelter’s phrase, “the…

The Washington Post handed over space on its op-ed page Sunday – the highest-circulation day of the week – to the ardently feminist MSNBC talker Rachel Maddow to warn of the Republican “War on Birth Control.” Or it's simply a "war on women" -- on the Post website, Maddow's column is illustrated with a cartoon video of a Catholic bishop and a politician playing a violent game of political ping…

Jake Tapper of ABC News wrote a remarkable story last week revealing the players in the Obama administration’s internal debate on the contraception mandate. According to Tapper, President Obama’s top advisers on the issue included Vice President Joe Biden, former White House Chief-of-Staff Bill Daley, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, former Domestic Policy…

Despite the fact that the national debt has topped $15 trillion, the three network morning shows on Monday managed to only provide a total of 47 seconds to the Obama administration's newly released budget plan. NBC's Today gave the most time to the news – a whole 26 seconds – but also completely glossed over criticism of the plan, with news anchor Natalie Morales declaring: "President Obama…

In an attempt to be “edgy,” singer Nicki Minaj did the most banal thing possible at the Grammys on Feb. 12. She mocked the Roman Catholic Church in a live performance of her new song “Roman Holiday.” Her anti-Catholic mishmash of a performance came with the support of the group that produced the Grammys, The Recording Academy. Rapper Nicki Minaj gave a sacrilegious performance mocking a host…

[UPDATED with video.] ABC's prank undercover news show What Would You Do on Friday again attempted to find secret, anti-gay bias, this time featuring a counselor telling a sobbing teen that he needs to "pray away the gay." Host John Quinones managed to drag Michelle Bachmann into the topic and seemed to have no problem when a patron asserted he was going to "kill" the actor playing the…

During a lengthy Morning Joe discussion about the growing contraceptive controversy, co-host Mika Brzezinski took issue with the Wall Street Journal’s Peggy Noonan saying the Obama administration is “mischievously” misinforming the public on this issue. Noonan smartly responded with a much-needed lesson on exactly how the White House and the Left are dishonestly twisting this subject for…

PBS will debut a new Bill Clinton documentary in its "American Experience" series next Monday (February 20). Executive producer Mark Samels clearly wasn't thinking like Beavis when he explained "The themes of William Jefferson Clinton's life -- promise and achievement followed by crisis and then comeback -- are the recipe for the secret sauce of great drama."  The London Telegraph says PBS…
