NYT Relegates Rout of AQI in Baghdad to A
When Rush Limbaugh opened today's show by mentioning that the New York Times had relegated to page A19 the story of the ridding of Al Qaeda-in-Iraq from all of Baghdad, I actually thought he might be joking. Surely not even the Times could be so brazenly biased as to bury such a huge story reflecting the success of the surge.But, sure enough, Rush was right. Page A19 is precisely the remote…
The Hillary Whitewash Continues
It seems that no bad Hillary Clinton deed goes unresponded to. As we are in the midst of a presidential campaign, this by itself is not an issue. That it is the national media that is leading this charge is. One need focus on but the latest corners of the Clinton pantheon to come to light to see the full court press the press puts on when their girl needs them.In an October 10 Boston Globe…
Gail Collins: Rudy Was 'Busy Committing Adultery
Over the course of his political career, Bill Clinton was literally and figuratively embraced by countless pastors, most of whom presumably went to their pulpits on Sunday to preach traditional values, including marital fidelity. If memory serves, neither Gail Collins nor other liberal pundits noted any irony in people of the cloth endorsing the spectacularly straying Clinton.But let a preacher…
NYT Slimes Private Guards in Iraq as 'Mercenaries
In an editorial with the misleadingly bland title "Legal Loopholes in Iraq," the Times editorial page took a leap into left-wing logic Monday, referring to private security contractors like Blackwater as "mercenaries." "Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice refers to the lack of legal accountability that allows mercenaries working for the American government to kill Iraqis without fear of…
Schizo NYT Has One Constant on Mid-East Democracy: Bush Always Wrong
UPDATE: Mark appeared this morning on the G. Gordon Liddy show to discuss this and other issues. Listen to audio clip here.OK, class, someone tell us: what's been the attitude of the New York Times and the elite media at large toward democracy-building in Iraq?What's that, Johnny? That it was naive for George Bush to imagine that democracy was attainable in a Muslim country riven by religious…
NYT: Extremist Ex-NARAL Officer Merely a 'Women's Leader
The folks at The New York Times are experts at obfuscation, aren't they? Here is a perfect example of the soft selling we get from the leftist editorial board of the Times, a great demonstration of their underhanded practice of creating labels out of thin air that sound sooooo much nicer than would a label that truthfully describes one of their fellow travelers. This time we have an abortion…
Rosie O’Donnell Heading to MSNBC
Rosie O'Donnell on MSNBC. When you think about it, it makes a lot of sense. After all, what could be better than three consecutive hours of leftwing invective starting with Chris Matthews, followed by Keith Olbermann, and ending with Rosie's ridiculous rants replete with repugnantly rude ruminations such as only she can regurgitate? It's a liberal cable network's dream. As reported by the…
NYT’s Love Letter to Hugo Chavez and Oil Socialism – Or Is It
New York Times Magazine published a rather fascinating article Sunday about the rise of nationalized oil throughout the world. Predictably, it initially came off as a love letter to Venezuela's Hugo Chavez and his new brand of oil socialism. Yet, if you dig deeper - unfortunately offshore deeper in a very lengthy piece - author Tina Rosenberg ended up rather dissatisfied with "petrocracy," and,…
NYT Blames Pakistani State of Emergency on Bush
One of the truly great ironies emanating from secular media members is the power they increasingly bestow upon George W. Bush to the point of making him Godlike. After all, in the past couple of years, the press have depicted this President as being responsible for hurricanes, tornados, wildfires, droughts, floods, global warming, and peace - or lack thereof - anywhere on the face of the planet…
