Columbia University announced Thursday that Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson will join the Pulitzer Board, which gives out the renowned journalism awards each year. Robinson, who won a Pulitzer for his coverage of the 2008 presidential race, will strengthen the leftist complexion of the board, which already has a meager presence of conservative minds. In fact, Wall Street Journal…

In a Saturday Washington Post op-ed, “Save Obama – by running against him,” Tikkun magazine editor Michael Lerner provided a list of “excellent candidates” to run against President Obama “who would unequivocally commit to a well-defined progressive agenda.” Amongst the names Rabbi Lerner forwarded, two from the news media who share his far-left agenda, plus an actress: Rachel Maddow, Bill…

For general discussion and debate about politics, the economy, sports, or whatever else tickles your fancy.

As NewsBusters previously reported, disgraced former White House correspondent Helen Thomas on Thursday made more anti-Semitic remarks in public this time telling an anti-Arab bias workshop in Detroit, "Congress, the White House, and Hollywood, Wall Street, are owned by the Zionists." Jeff Dunetz at Yid With Lid has uncovered a video of her entire pathetic speech (video follows with…

The December 6 issue of Newsweek pitched its Holiday Movie Preview with cutesy headlines -- like the new Natalie Portman ballerina film Black Swan is "The One...Ballet Movie Even Straight Guys Might Like." (That's a reference to the scandalous Portman-Mila Kunis lesbian sex scene.) But the new Kevin Spacey movie about conservative lobbyist and convicted felon Jack Abramoff is "The One...for Tea…

While the "objective" network newscasts strenuously sought to hornswoggle the public into thinking everyone in Washington was sympathetic to unethical tax-evading liberal Rep. Charlie Rangel getting censured on the House floor for 45 seconds, CNN's Parker Spitzer asked about Rangel on Thursday night and received a dissenting blast from sports journalist Stephen A. Smith, who called him an “…

   On Saturday morning, FNC’s Fox and Friends Saturday and ABC’s Good Morning America highlighted Democratic Senator Bob Menendez’s assertion that negotiating with Republicans taxes is like negotiating with terrorists. NBC’s Today show included a brief mention, but CBS’s The Early Show and CNN Saturday Morning ignored the New Jersey Democrat’s over-the-top rhetoric. FNC included a soundbite…

My hat's off to you, Ed. You've restored my faith in the possibility of liberals occasionally seeing the light. Here's an exchange between Schultz and Rep. Donna Edwards of Maryland on Schultz's radio show Thursday --

On her radio show Wednesday, Randi Rhodes insisted that conservatives are not constitutionalists. They know nothing about the Constitution, she asserted. She oddly claimed that there's “nothing about politics” in the Constitution, so resisting new spending because it makes you popular is apparently quite unconstitutional behavior: And they don't give a rat's ass if you are suffering through…

The editorial board of the Washington Post on Saturday ripped to shreds the factual authenticity of the new film about the Valerie Plame affair. According to the Post, "'Fair Game,' based on books by [Joe] Wilson and his wife, is full of distortions - not to mention outright inventions" (h/t NBer Beresford):

Sarah Palin on Thursday cut off an unauthorized interview with CNN. As his crew was taking footage of the former Alaska governor signing books at an Iowa Walmart, Jim Acosta tried to take advantage of the situation by asking her a few questions (video follows with transcript and commentary):

The unemployment rate jumped to a seasonally adjusted 9.8% in November and only 39,000 seasonally adjusted jobs were added during the month, according to the Employment Situation Report released yesterday by Uncle Sam's Bureau of Labor Statistics. Although she at least recognized the report's negativity, Lucia Mutikani at Reuters seemed bent on downplaying its impact, even finding an "expert…

I really love when I see a blog published at the Huffington Post by Alec Baldwin for I know it's going to be some truly delicious left-wing insanity guaranteed to put a huge smile on my face. On Saturday, the idiot actor from Long Island, New York, didn't disappoint:

Chris Matthews on Friday made the absurd claim the "compassionate" Left is too soft on Republican wrongdoers, and that by contrast the Right puts it's "heel into the back of the guy's head when he's down." The "Hardball" host - with a straight face no less - said this to guests Ron Reagan and Politico's Roger Simon with reference to how the "right-wing press played up [Charlie] Rangel's…
