Prominent Lefties Tina Brown, Joe Klein in Uproar Over Palin Anti-Cope
December 9th, 2009 3:43 PM
Sarah Palin isn't getting much of a break these days from anyone on the left end of the political spectrum. In the Dec. 9 Washington Post, an op-ed appeared by the former Alaska governor, in which she called on President Barack Obama to boycott the current Copenhagen climate summit in the wake of the "Climategate" e-mail leak. "Without trustworthy science and with so much at stake, Americans…

Class dismissed: that's really all you need to know about the latest Time cover story—The Decade From Hell And Why The Next One Will Be Better.

Time Magazine Cover Asks If Ft. Hood Shooter Is A 'Terrorist
November 13th, 2009 10:12 AM
Time magazine appears to be throwing caution to the political correctness wind by placing a picture on the cover of its soon to to be released November 23 issue with the word "Terrorist" written across the face of alleged Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan.Straddling the fence slightly, the magazine chose to put a question mark after the word.Even so, given media's discomfort portraying Hasan as…
Time's Von Drehle: Obama's Ft. Hood Speech Ruined by Too Much TV Analy
November 13th, 2009 8:26 AM
Here we go again: a liberal journalist feeling Barack Obama's pain, that he would be instantly judged by the media. Wait, the Obama-mythologizing, pinch-me-history-is-happening media? Yes. Time's David Von Drehle wrote an article titled "Obama's Fort Hood Speech: Lost in Translation." Von Drehle compared it to...the Gettysburg Address: Lincoln was lucky. His speech at Gettysburg wasn't televised…
Time's Newton-Small Focuses On Cao Vote, Glosses Over 15.1% of Dems D
November 9th, 2009 12:06 PM
Saturday's vote to pass ObamaCare out of the House of Representatives was a nail-biter, passing with two votes to spare over the bare-minimum majority of 218. The final vote, 220-215, had 39 Democrats join all but one Republican in voting no.Yet while a solid 15 percent of the Democratic caucus bucked the party leadership with their no votes, the media have latched on to the sole Republican…
Time's Joe Klein: GOP Is An 'Extremist' 'Regional Southern Party
November 8th, 2009 10:49 PM
The Republicans may have won huge victories in New Jersey and Virginia on Tuesday, but Time's Joe Klein still thinks the GOP is "an extremist shard of a party that is essentially a regional southern party in the country."I guess the 66 and 60 percent of independents who voted for the Republican gubernatorial candidate in Virginia and New Jersey respectively on Tuesday are also part of this…
On Eve of Fall of Berlin Wall, Recalling the Liberal Media’s Take on
November 5th, 2009 10:48 AM
As readers of Cal Thomas’s latest syndicated column already know, the Media Research Center is releasing a new report today on the media’s coverage of communism, timed to coincide with the 20 anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall on Monday. Sad to say, but before, during and after those momentous events two decades ago, many in the liberal media continuously whitewashed the true nature of…
Time Sees ‘Silver Lining’ in Gay Marriage Loss in Maine
November 5th, 2009 9:50 AM
Less than 24 hours after Mainers rejected a state law allowing same-sex marriage, Time magazine rushed to comfort gay activists with Michael Lindenberger's sloppy, transparently biased article titled "Gay-Marriage Activists Look Ahead After Defeat in Maine." With condescension reminiscent of Peter Jennings - in 1994 the ABC anchor characterized the Republican takeover of Congress as the…
Time's Joe Klein: Fox Peddles Hateful Crap Bordering On Sedition
October 24th, 2009 3:57 PM
"Let me be precise here: Fox News peddles a fair amount of hateful crap. Some of it borders on sedition. Much of it is flat out untrue."So wrote Time's Joe Klein Friday at the magazine's Swampland blog in a piece intended to be the columnist's critique of the Administration's recent demonization of the Fox News Channel.Comically, with virtually every admonishment of the White House's strategy…
