Can you imagine the outrage if a news organization published a headline reading "FINALLY! A Show Without All Those Old Black Guys Getting In The Way?" I guess the folks at the Huffington Post didn't consider that when they put the following headline atop their media page: FINALLY! A Show Without All Those Old White Guys Getting In The Way

The panic amongst Obama-loving media members over the possibility that Congress won’t support the President’s planned attack on Syria is becoming palpable.

Ultraliberal Congressman Alan Grayson was interviewed on Thursday’s PBS NewsHour, and struck a fierce pose against missile strikes in Syria in a peace-sign tie.

Anyone who’s actually seen the cartoonish Sarah Palin as a mentally imbalanced fruitcake in the HBO movie “Game Change” would laugh (or throw their remote-control) at the sound of the movie’s Jay Roach appearing on the PBS NewsHour on Tuesday night.

You can’t swing a dead cat these days without hitting some prominent African-American claiming race relations have worsened since Barack Obama became president.

Stop the presses! Stop the presses! A liberal media member actually said something negative about Al Sharpton.

Actor Kevin Spacey came on PBS's Charlie Rose show to promote his Netflix series House of Cards and talk about his success at running Britain's Old Vic Theatre.

Politico’s Glenn Thrush attacked RNC chairman Reince Priebus last Friday for Priebus’s threat to withhold 2016 GOP primary debates from NBC and CNN.

Appearing on PBS’s Inside Washington, Thrush dismissed Priebus’s criticism…

Media mogul Mort Zuckerman wins this weekend’s funniest line on a political talk show.

There was a very funny moment at the end of Friday's McLaughlin Group on PBS when the entire panel unanimously predicted that Anthony Weiner would drop out of the New York City mayor's race.
