86 year-old Tony Bennett is in the news again, this time for uttering yet-another bit of left-wing lunacy. Yesterday, in a press conference loaded with anti-Second Amendment celebrities wearing their prescription-less “smart” glasses, Bennett claimed that gun ownership would turn
***SPOILERS**** Had Netflix’s good but not great “House of Cards,” been about Republicans, those of us on the Right would likely be furious. But like Jews can mock Jews and blacks can mock blacks, leftist Hollywood can mercilessly hammer its
According to Fishbowl DC, newly-installed CNN-chief Jeff Zucker has made or is contemplating a couple of smart moves. Apparently, John King has survived and just renewed his contract. That’s the good news. The great news is that the incorrigibly corrupt
There’s Time Warner, the multi-billion dollar multi-national; and then there’s its subsidiary, Time Inc., the publishing arm responsible for somewhere around 130 magazines, including Time, Sports Illustrated, Fortune, and People. Time Inc. has been downsizing for years now, including

From a mile away, a blind man could have seen this coming … at night … in sunglasses. That the media would turn against New Jersey governor Chris Christie as soon as he stopped beating up John Boehner and being
Comparing waterboarding — which is so harmless journalists have volunteered to do it — to assassinating American citizens is like comparing a Nerf ball to an uzi. Comparing involuntary detentions at Guantanamo Bay — where the greatest threat to prisoners
The Congressional Budget Office’s just-released economic forecast for 2013 is dispiriting, to say the least. The GDP is expected to grow by only 1.4%, the unemployment rate will “stay near” 8%, the deficit will reach $845 billion, and ObamaCare will cost
In response to Not So Free Speech: If some loser of a teacher teacher wants to be a racist jerk (though I’m not sure that’s him making the “gorilla” crack) who hurls gay slurs in the privacy of his own
Just when I’m pretty sure I couldn’t be happier with the Washington Post’s Erik Wemple and his righteous refusal to let the media off the hook for lying about Heckle-Gate, Wemple calls out one of his own, the Post’s Dana
Last week, the media told us an increase in the unemployment rate and crash in GDP were both good news. This week, with a record increase in gas prices strangling the poor and middle class, CNN’s Ashleigh Banfield just told
It’s bad enough Politico’s Dylan Byers is a palace guard for Obama’s media palace guards, but it’s his reading comprehension that’s most bothersome. On the same day we publish a scoop on the Menendez scandal, Beyers mocks us for, uhm,
It’s pretty easy to have a 54% approval rating when the media either refuses to report bad economic news, or manufactures happy talk around news that can’t be ignored. Meanwhile, in the dead of winter, gas prices have hit an
This isn’t an excuse. The media is intentionally protecting Barack Obama at all costs (see: cover up, Libya), and the media is populated by hive minds terrified of what might happen should they jump off the Narrative Plantation and actually report
This post by “Jim Treacher” is only 83 words long. But those 83 words sure do hit the mark and make the point that exposes exactly what BuzzFeed Politics is all about and how useful it is to Democrats.
Last week, a bomb went off in the news media. But the media’s own version of the Blue Wall of Silence held together again, which allowed the media to pretend nothing happened. Some in conservative media noticed and reported on
Last night, an estimated 114.7 million people watched the championship game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens. Football’s biggest night, which is filled with patriotism, masculinity and greatness unencumbered by a trophy-for-everyone mentality — the most conservative

First, a little background: There’s a crucially important cold war being waged in the entertainment business: Netflix versus everyone else. And we should all be rooting for Netflix. Boiled to its essence, what we have is a battle between the
“The Baltimore Sun’s” David Zurawik doesn’t mention the acts of outright journalistic fraud committed under Capus’ scandal-plagued tenure as NBC News president (which ended Friday), but he does at least nod to the elephant in the room: Ending a tenure
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a Lutheran pastor and German patriot hanged by the Nazis for his involvement in a plot to assassinate Hitler, would be 107 years old today. Bonhoeffer’s extraordinary story of open defiance to Hitler out of loyalty to Christ,
Some of you younger folks might not remember this, but there was a time when the media questioned Power. No, really, once upon a time, the media saw it as its duty to be forever questioning and skeptical of Power,
It was enough of a miracle that “Godfather II,” lived up to its predecessor, and I think it’s close to a miracle number three is as good as it is. It’s most certainly a worthy entry in the saga, but
Pop quiz: What was the biggest news story this week? And I don’t mean, what was the biggest news story according to Obama’s media. Obviously, it was the economy taking a nosedive into negative territory last quarter, along with the
