MISS ME YET? LEFTY COLUMNISTS SAY “YES”!

Is it possible that progressive journalists want George W. Bush to rescue President Obama from the fallout of the latter’s stupid comments on the WTC mosque? Yep.
‘It’s time for W. to weigh in,’ writes the New York Times’ Maureen Dowd. Bush, Dowd explains, understands that ‘you can’t have an effective war against the terrorists if it […]

GALLUP: 75% OF AMERICANS MISTRUST MSM

This shouldn’t be a surprise, considering how often the “news” media have lied to us about Obamacare (and every other important issue), but it’s still amazing that only a quarter of Americans trust the information provided by an industry whose primary role is to provide information:
Americans continue to express near-record-low confidence in newspapers and television news — with […]

VIDEO: CNN ANCHORS CALL FOR CRACKDOWN ON BLOGGERS

You’d think that broadcast news types would have enough sense to know that allowing the government to restrict the First Amendment rights of one group would be the first step toward a Soviet-style, state-controlled media. But these two CNN anchors don’t seem to get that. In this clip, Kyra Phillips and John Roberts agree that […]

JOURNOLIST: THE MOVIE

In addition to exposing the disgraceful collusion of MSM ”reporters” and bloggers on a variety of important stories, the  JournoList revelations provide a useful glimpse of progressive hypocrisy. This video (from the Daily Caller) cleverly contrasts their phony aversion to violence with their sick fantasies about Rush Limbaugh having an MI (Sarah Spitz), Matt Drudge on fire (David […]

VIDEO: JOURNOLIST FOUNDER EXPLAINS THE NEED TO BE “SNEAKY” ABOUT HEALTH REFORM

We have read about the deliberate and coordinated effort by JournoList members to misinform the public about Jeremiah Wright and Sarah Palin. And, as I pointed out yesterday, the listserv’s founder has been focused on health reform since he first hit big time blogging in 2007.  So, it would be pretty odd if Klein and his accomplices […]

VIDEO: JOURNOLIST DISCUSSION WITH NEIL PATEL, PUBLISHER OF THE DAILY CALLER

The story, so far, has focused on MSM coverage of Jeremiah Wright and the coordinated deployment of the race card, but it goes much deeper. Journolist’s founder (and the guy who took it down in an attempt to hide the evidence) is Washington Post blogger Ezra Klein, whose focus for years has been health reform. So, you […]

POTUS, DOJ AND THE OCARE TAX FLIP-FLOP

If you want to know why the major bird cage liners are begging for government subsidies to stop their slide into bankruptcy, this piece in the NYT pretty much tells the tale:
When Congress required most Americans to obtain health insurance or pay a penalty, Democrats denied that they were creating a new tax. But in court, the […]

MSM SANITIZING DONALD BERWICK’S RECORD

My latest column for the American Spectator deals with the disinformation campaign waged by the “news” media about the man Obama just installed at the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services:
Donald Berwick’s views on wealth redistribution, rationing and the free market are far to the left of mainstream public opinion, and a wide variety of […]

KLEIN IS LYIN’ ABOUT RYAN

One of the thorniest problems facing defenders of Obama’s new Medicare Czar, Donald Berwick, is how to explain away his views on health care rationing. In a 2009 interview, he delivered himself of the following remark:
The decision is not whether or not we will ration care; the decision is whether we will ration with our eyes […]

VIDEO: BILL CLINTON JOINS BYRD WHITEWASH

Clinton calls Byrd’s membership in the KKK “a fleeting association,” but Byrd joined in 1942 and was still openly supportive of the Klan in the late 1950s. Moreover, he filibustered the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

The hypocrisy of the Democrats and the “news” media on Byrd is breathtaking. Contrast the Byrd whitewash with the treatment Rand Paul received […]
