Justin Moyer contended that ESPN's firing of former baseball pitcher Curt Schilling "seemed destined" in a Thursday article for the Washington Post, which detailed the supposed "radicalization" of the former Phillies player turned "conservative loudmouth." Moyer spotlighted how "Schilling went fangs out" after Tweeting out a controversial image that "many deemed transphobic." However, the…
NYT's Chozick Goes Over the Top With Hillary 'Love' After NY Win
Amy Chozick, chief Hillary Clinton follower and supporter at the New York Times, joined in the celebration of Clinton’s solid win in Tuesday’s New York primary on the front page: “Democratic Primary Triumph Is a Story of Love Rekindled.” Chozick went far beyond praise for a successful campaign, molding carpetbagging Clinton into a true blue New Yorker, dancing and playing dominoes all across the…

However, Washington Post reporter Philip Bump challenged that figure on Monday as being…
WashPost Critic Lauds Iranian Women's Pictures, Scolds 'Vulgar' West
On Sunday, The Washington Post displayed the liberal media's emotional attachment to poor, misunderstood Islam, and how Western objections to its rigidity are "vulgar" and "condescending." Art and architecture critic Philip Kennicott celebrated an exhibit at the National Museum of Women in the Arts displaying photography by women from Iran and the Arab world. The show is "provocative," but not…

Horrific DC-Area Rape Story Underreported on Spanish Nets
Our nation has been rocked, yet again, by news of horrific crimes committed against the most vulnerable among us- by individuals who are in this country illegally. Sadly, our domestic Spanish-language networks have once again chosen to be derelict in their duty to fully inform the community; by either hiding the suspects' immigration status if not blacking out the story altogether.
AP: Min. Wage Job Losses 'Uncertain'; 2 States Show It's a Sure Thing
On Tuesday, shortly after Governor Jerry Brown signed California's $15-an-hour minimum wage legislation, the Associated Press's Michael R. Blood and Don Thompson called the move "a victory for those struggling on the margins of the economy and the politically powerful unions that pushed it."
As seen in a NewsBusters post on March 31, it's definitely a win for union members whose wages are set…
WashPost: Asad Shah's Death Had 'Nothing to Do With Christianity'
Two weeks ago, yours truly posted on a very inadequate March 26 U.S.-distributed Associated Press story out of Glasgow the previous day (since expired) about the murder of Asad Shah. Despite the fact that far more information was known at the time, the wire service would only acknowledge that "the killing of a Muslim shopkeeper who wished Christians a happy Easter is being investigated as '…
WaPo Uses KKK Photo Essay to Slam Trump, Skips Democrat Connection
The Washington Post today published an interesting photo essay about the small number of people who are still members of the Ku Klux Klan in Tennessee and Maryland. The photos reveal them to be mostly a bunch of pathetic outcast losers. However, the real reason for this essay wasn't to demonstrate what we already know about the Klan. Just after the introductory paragraph, the true purpose of this…

Left's Unreported Belief: High Job-Killing Minimum Wages Are Okay
Perhaps this is why the press has been reluctant to cite economists who are predicting that sharp increases in state minimum wages like the $15-per-hour minimums just passed in California and New York will reduce employment: They're with many of their lefty brethren who don't care whether jobs are lost. So they must believe that no one else should care either.

WashPost Writer Admits To 'Raising' Her Cats 'Gender-Neutral'
It's fair to conclude that when an article's title carries the preface "don't laugh," what follows could easily be ridiculed. Lauren R. Taylor's Tuesday online blog item for the Washington Post certainly fits that bill, as the title continued that she has "a serious reason for raising my cats gender-neutral." Taylor revealed how she once accidentally called her two female cats "boys," and used…
WashPost Plays Up Study Tying 'Racial Prejudice' With Gun Rights
The Washington Post's Christopher Ingraham devoted a Monday item to trumpeting the study of two Illinois political scientists, which supposedly determined that "racial prejudice could play a significant role in white Americans' opposition to gun control."

Reid Told Candidate 'Muslim Cannot Win' Election: Will Nets Report?
