WashPo, Politico Highlight ‘Easy Target’ Kelly Ayotte Over Gun Con

The latest target for gun-control activists appears to be freshman Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.). In strikingly similar articles appearing on May 1, the Washington Post hyped the “contentious political fight” over gun control, and Politico describing the “lingering controversy that continues to hover over the New Hampshire senator.” The two articles try to portray Ayotte as at odds with the…

Washington Post: Closed Virginia Abortion Clinic a 'Victim' of New Re

"Virginia's assault on abortion claims a victim," lamented the WashingtonPost.com headline for an April 28 editorial -- headlined "Virginia's assault on abortion" in the print edition -- savaging the new regulations on clinics in the Old Dominion. It seems the Post, generally no opponent of government regulation, is staunchly pro-free enterprise when the business in question is killing unborn…

WashPost Actually Covers LiveAction Sting Video Where Abortionist Admi

Every now and then a liberal newspaper can pleasantly surprise us. Today is one of those days, although as I explain later, our praise is qualified. In a 27-paragraph story in Monday's edition, staffers Sandhya Somashekhar and Lena Sun noted a recent sting video by pro-life group Live Action wherein Washington, D.C. abortionist Cesare Santangelo admitted that "in the unlikely event that an…

Networks Skip Over ABC's Poll Finding That Bush Approval Rating Hit a

Did anyone notice anything missing during Diane Sawyer’s interview with President Bush last night?  She didn’t mention his surge in the polls, which was conducted by ABC News.  Yes, ABC decided to omit their poll in order to have Sawyer bait President Bush with left-leaning questions, like his views on gay marriage.  The American people are now giving the forty-third president a second look,…

Benghazi Report Critical of Hillary Buried in Graf 17 of NY Times Stor

Wednesday's New York Times story by Cairo correspondent David Kirkpatrick about a car-bombing in Libya buried an important new development in the Benghazi scandal. A report from House Republicans accused then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton of rejecting a call for additional security for U.S. diplomats in Libya before the Benghazi terror attack that killed four Americans last year on the…

WashPost Suggests It's Not the Tsarnaevs That Are Sick, But Islamophob

The Washington Post tried to turn the camera lens around on the violent Tsarnaev brothers. Their arrogant liberal assumption: the real question is what this says about us backwards Americans, not about the bombers. The headline in huge type was “Who do we think they are? The answer says a lot about who we are.” What we are, apparently, is a sad gathering of “Islamophobes,” because the story…

Networks: All Quiet on the Gosnell Front

Matt Philbin
Well that didn’t last long. In fact, it barely happened at all. After a month of ignoring the trial of Kermit Gosnell, the Philadelphia abortionist accused of murdering one woman and seven infants, it looked like the media had been shamed into covering the story.  Barely. Even after the most gruesome detail in a trial full of them came out – a baby who survived an abortion “swimming” in a…

WashPost's Wagner Devotes 24 Grafs to Promoting Dem Gov. O'Malley's 'P

"After an extraordinarily productive two years in which Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley muscled through legislation on several top priorities — including same-sex marriage,gun control, transportation funding and repealing the death penalty — the question is: What, if anything, is there left for him to do before leaving office?" That's how Washington Post staffer John Wagner opened his Metro…

It's Not Just ABC and WashPost Who'll Skip Finding That Majority of Wo

On April 18, a new Washington Post/ABC News poll that showed 51% of Americans feel that guns in the home make it safer, compared to 29% who think otherwise. More telling is that fact that 51% of white middle class women agree with the sentiment about firearms making homes safer.  Additionally, a Nexis search detailed that ABC News has yet to report this poll, and, with the exception of the Fix…

WashPost Hypes ‘Intense Pressure’ From Gun Lobby For Gun Control F

The Washington Post seems to have joined President Obama in blaming the National Rifle Association for the Senate defeating recent gun control legislation.  In an April 18 article, the Post's Ed O'Keefe and Philip Rucker provide cover for President Obama and Senate Democrats, peppering their story with quotes condemning Republicans and Second Amendment advocates.  The article started off…

Liberal WashPost Columnist Courtland Milloy Slams 'False Hope and Foll

In January, I noted how liberal Washington Post columnist Courtland Milloy shared with his readers the story of courageous African-American civil rights activists in the South who fended off threats of terroristic violence by the KKK by being well armed to fight back. Well this morning, Milloy published another pro-gun rights column, this one full of fiery indignation at liberal nonsense on gun…

WashPost Devotes 24 Paragraphs to Defending Va. Democrats Writing Off

The liberal media love to chastise Republicans for  writing off minorities and urban voters, insisting that the GOP is becoming a regional and largely rural party. But that concern trolling doesn't cut both ways. The liberal media never seem to care that Democrats are losing rural, blue collar workers or that the party's failure to be competitive in the rural heartland is an indictment of their…

WashPost Reporters, Fox News Host Donate to LGBT Clinic Fundraiser Hon

On Thursday night, the Whitman-Walker Health Clinic will hold its annual “Be The Care” fundraiser honoring lesbian Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wisconsin) with its “Partner for Life” award. Once again this year, journalists don't seem to think supporting this is a conflict of interest. This liberal-Democrat event is being co-chaired by former Washington Post reporter Ceci Connolly, and she and her…

Bozell Column: Coming Up Short On Dr. Gosnell

The trial of notorious Philadelphia abortionist Kermit Gosnell -- as close to a demonic presence as anything this country will ever see -- was almost a month old when the network blackout finally ended. CNN broke its silence, as did CBS. National newspapers sent reporters to the trial for the first time. They started covering it only because of a national outrage that they would so…
