Mika & Soledad: America's Morning Media Scolds

Where's the America that used to laugh these people off the planet? Is this sanctimonious, liberty-strangling moral preening by our media actually going to take hold? Is our culture really morphing this far leftward, where the sense of self-righteous moral superiority that comes with regulating the personal lives of others feels better than advocating for personal liberty? 24 Jan 2013

Salon Doesn't Believe Fire Melts Steel

"But unlike with Sandy Hook, 9/11 conspiracy theories flow from a scientific fact: whatever the 9/11 Commission Report might claim, fire generated by burning jet fuel is not hot enough to melt steel." 23 Jan 2013

WaPo Reporter to Hillary: Yes, It Makes a Difference

What's frightening is not that a politician like Hillary Clinton would use ginned up indignation to deflect from a White House cover up. What's frightening is that much of the media is okay with that response or championing it as a "takedown." 23 Jan 2013

HuffPo: 'Howie Kurtz Should Be Ashamed of Himself'

"And what's more the "journalist" who penned the simpering interview that was mind-boggling in one aspect only -- its lack of finding any real answers from the interviewee -- is Howie Kurtz. Howie Kurtz?" 23 Jan 2013

Sharyl Attkisson Asks Libya Questions The Media Won't

Today while almost all the media was gushing over outgoing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's theatrical and less than forthcoming Senate testimony about events in Libya, CBS News' Sharyl Attkisson tweeted out a penetrating series of unanswered questions that both the White House and its media minions will ensure are never answered. 23 Jan 2013

Nightline's Terry Moran Mocks Rand Paul After Clinton Hearing

This is how the media turns an inconvenient narrative away from its own (a Democrat) and then trains its fire on whomever dares to politically damage one of its own. Libya has been a non-stop exercise in this kind of media behavior. Four Americans die under Obama's watch, Romney dares say something, and the media makes him the story for 10 days; not the terrorist attack, the lack of security, or the subsequent administration cover up. 23 Jan 2013

Hillary on Libya: 'What Difference Does It Make?'

After being pressed today by Republican Senator Ron Johnson to explain how it was that, over the course of weeks, the Obama Administration stood by an absurd story claiming that four Americans were murdered in Libya due to a spontaneous protest gone bad, outgoing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton played the indignation card. 23 Jan 2013

Inauguration Ratings Plummet 55% Compared to 2009

In Obama's defense, you can only inaugurate the first black president once. 2009 was a truly historical event, 2013 no so much. But there's also a waning enthusiasm for the man himself. Though the media would never let on, Obama's approval ratings hover around 50%, and his reelection victory was far from the landslide most reelected American presidents enjoy. 23 Jan 2013

CBS News Political Director: 'Pulverize GOP' Objective 'Analysis'

As the portions I've highlighted make clear, Dickerson's entire piece was predicated on his obvious belief that Republicans are the problem, not Obama. All four of those paragraphs are loaded with criticism of the GOP, while Obama is presented as a man who tried his best to make things work only to find his noble intentions thwarted at every turn. 22 Jan 2013

Broke 'Boston Globe' Renting Office Space

"Times are certainly tough for the newspaper industry. So tough, in fact, that many have started leasing out office space to make some extra cash. The New York Times reports that a paper it owns — The Boston Globe — has rented out empty space to startups and even bands." 22 Jan 2013
