Connecting the “media justice” dots
I’ve been spotlighting various members of the speech-stifling “media justice” mob over the past few weeks (here and here). They are Marxist-inspired activists seeking to crack down on conservative political speech under the guise of combating “hate” and crusading for “diversity.” Remember: “Social justice” = redistribution of wealth and economic “rights.” “Media justice” = redistribution [...]
Election Day primer — and pushback against preemptive Democrat-media spin
Joshua Culling at the National Taxpayers Union has a handy primer on the gubernatorial races in New Jersey and Virginia, plus overviews of state ballot initiatives across the country. Read and bookmark here. For NY-23, check 73wire, The Other McCain, Riehl World View, and TCOT Report. Mark Blumenthal at Pollster.com has analysis on NY-23 polls [...]
Video: Laura Ingraham calls out Charlie Gibson’s ACORN ignorance
On ABC News this morning at George Stephanopoulos’s This Week roundtable, fellow Fox News contributor and conservative radio talk show host Laura Ingraham took Charlie Gibson to task for his ignorance of the ACORN scandal (which, you’ll remember, a condescending Gibson said he thinks the MSM should “leave to the cables.”) Brava. Keep calling them [...]
MoveOn demands that Democrats stay off Fox News
A reader just sent this fresh missive from the Fox News Deranged-foot soldiers at MoveOn: From: Noah T. Winer, MoveOn.org Civic Action moveon-help@list.moveon.org Subject: Stay off FOX [Recipient name redacted] Date: Tuesday, October 20, 2009, 2:05 PM Dear MoveOn member, All year, FOX has worked 24/7 to block President Obama’s agenda—repeating lies about “death panels,” [...]
Obama’s Fox News policy: Isolation over engagement
Plus: Anita Dunn on getting around the “filter.”
Who’s behind the White House war on Fox News?
President Obama with Anita Dunn, David Axelrod, Rahm Emanuel, and Robert Gibbs (via White House Flickr stream) My syndicated column today follows up on yesterday’s Fox News Derangement Syndrome post. Who has Obama stocked his communications shop with, you ask? Beltway flacks for corruptocrats. Meet some of the key people behind the White House war [...]
Fox News Derangement Syndrome strikes again
All-whine zone.
Hell freezes over
For once, Jon Stewart takes a break from Fox News-bashing to ask where the hell the establishment media reporters have been on the ACORN scandals. Behold his momentary lapse of sanity. *** Meanwhile: ACORN, calling the actions of some of its employees “indefensible,” has suspended advising new clients as part of its service programs and [...]
A tale of two protection rackets: ACORN’s — and the media’s
Stung.
What’s missing from the New York Times coverage of ACORN
Who said it: “The real story to all this is how these myriad entities allow them to shuffle money around so much that no one really knows what’s getting spent on what.”
NBC (the network that rigged crash tests, staged racism stings & faked flood coverage) criticizes ACORN “entrapment”
Oh, this is so rich. So, so rich. Norah O’Donnell of NBC News fretted this morning that the ACORN sting videos “might be viewed as entrapment.” Yes, she actually said it. Mark Finkelstein has the transcript/video here. Now, let me remind Ms. O’Donnell of the glorious history of news “entrapment” at NBC News. Um, there [...]
ACORN Watch: Charlie Gibson and the ostrich media; Update: Audio added
Several Chicago readers and Twitterers report that ABC News anchor Charlie Gibson told WLS-AM Chicago talk show hosts Don Wade and Roma this morning that the reason he hasn’t covered the ACORN scandal is that he didn’t know about it. Reader Patrick M. e-mails: While listening to Don Wade and Roma this morning on WLS [...]
More conservative-driven news unfit to mention
Shhhhh….
Huffington Post exploits AP’s dying Marine photo
What’s more shameless than the Associated Press defying the wishes of a dying Marine’s family and splashing his bloody body all over the wires? Why, the Huffington Post reprinting a massively large version of the image on its front page with an accompanying blog commentary praising the AP photographer’s work as “tasteful” — along with [...]
Emetic of the day: The David Brooks-Barack Obama love story
Torrid.
Cone of Shame Award: MSNB-see-only-what-we-want-you-to-see
Oh, you are just going to love MSNBC’s explanation for why the network doctored up video of a black town hall protester carrying a gun to suggest that gun-toting Tea Party folks are all white racists. This takes the cake. I don’t think there is a Cone of Shame big enough:
Socialist Bernie Sanders: We need more liberal media!
Wah.
NBC: “YES WE DID”

Bully boy Rahm puts screws on media execs
Howard Kurtz at the Washington Post sheds a little light on how Rahm F’n Emanuel leaned on network news executives to carry President Obama’s health care news conference. It’s the Chicago way. In the days before President Obama’s last news conference, as the networks weighed whether to give up a chunk of their precious prime [...]
African journalist makes CNN Obama cheerleader look really, really stupid
“Unprecedented.”
Two disappearing acts, one tabloid circus
(See update on Sanford fiasco here…) So, South Carolina GOP Gov. Mark Sanford disappeared and the story of where the hell he has been keeps changing. Yes, it’s weird. Disturbingly weird that he would vanish on Father’s Day weekend and leave his wife and four sons in the dark. It’s weird and creepy and something’s [...]
Introducing the fly-by media
“The poise! The cupping!”
The Ensign affair vs. the Conyers case
Ugh. What a wretched dog. GOP Sen. John Ensign of Nevada cheated on his beautiful wife — the mother of his three children — with a campaign aide who was married to one of his Senate staffers. He rode his high horse as a guardian of marriage and Promise Keepers. And then he only admitted [...]
What the Sacramento Bee really thinks of voters
“Misplaced anger.”
The most self-absorbed night in Washington (since the inaugural)
I spent a blissful Mother’s Day weekend unplugged and away from the news. So if you’re looking for outrage, faux outrage, and extended commentary on all the narcissism and nastiness at the White House Correspondents Dinner, you’ll have to look elsewhere. In a nutshell: Liberal comedian Wanda Sykes indulged in Palin-bashing, Rush Derangement Syndrome, and [...]
CNN can’t count
Omri Ceren takes a look at CNN’s tally of Obama’s gaffes and finds — surprise! — that there are many, many items missing. Attention, CNN: Meet Don Surber. And meet Bob Newman.
