Out here in MediaWorld, the three best-known “media critics” are the Daily Beast’s Howard Kurtz, Politico’s Dylan Byers, and the Washington Post’s Erik Wemple. There’s also only one Fox News in a literal ocean of broadcast, cable, online, and print

ABC News just announced big changes at the network. Jonathan Karl has been named Chief White House Correspondent and Martha Raddatz is the new Chief Global Affairs Correspondent. Wait, isn’t Chief White House Correspondent Jake Tapper’s gig? Indeed it is, and buried at the

Note that Kurtz is concerned only with gun control and says nothing about school safety. But this is how the media game is rigged… You have a left-wing media pushing left-wing politicians to pass gun control, and should that fail, as back-up

It looks as though “Nightline” wasn’t the only ABC News’ outlet willing to bridle against the current gun control narrative playing out all across our media landscape. This morning, in a report by Alex Perez, “Good Morning America” opened with

Last night on ABC’s “Nightline,” Terry Moran introduced a fantastic segment that took a serious look at something beyond the incessant media drumbeat that pretends only gun control will solve the problem of mass shootings. In a glaring exception to The Narrative,

Scarborough’s not-at-all veiled threat to Hollywood about government censorship troubles me even more than ‘Sanctimonious Joe’s’ emotionally-driven betrayal of our Second Amendment civil rights.  We’re talking about the government censoring artistic freedom and speech here; we’re talking about our most sacred of rights

Reason 11,958 CNN is tanking…. This morning, CNN’s Soledad O’Brien hosted a round-table discussion on gun control with Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal. Not a single person on the six-person panel challenged Blumenthal on his gun control views. Watch for yourself…

Paging Piers Morgan… Piers Morgan to the white courtesy phone…. Gun crime has almost doubled since Labour came to power as a culture of extreme gang violence has taken hold. The latest Government figures show that the total number of

More proof of just how damaged the GOP Brand is: Fifty-three percent of those surveyed say they view the policies of the GOP as too extreme, up 17 points from two years ago. Only 37% say they view the polices of

Here at the Boone, North Carolina, branch of the Breitbart News Network empire, all day, every day, I have four monitors broadcasting every conceivable news program. I miss nothing, I see everything, and six days after the Sandy Hook massacre

***UPDATE: Piers Morgan responded to this article on Twitter, personally accusing me of smearing him and twisting his “obvious sarcasm.” I responded by asking how straight-forward reporting and quoting what he said constitutes twisting or smearing, and will update this post if there’s an answer.

The Newtown Bee is a local paper where Friday’s awful school-shooting took place. Monday, they found it necessary to post a Facebook plea asking their colleagues in the national media to, “PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THE VICTIMS.” What’s most infuriating, though, are the comments left by

WGMD Radio out of Delaware: Former ABC News political reporter Sam Donaldson was pulled over on Savannah Road by Lewes Police on December 1 for a traffic violation. An officer says that he’d been drinking. Donaldson failed field sobriety tests,

There’s no question the media needs to be in Newtown covering this story, but as we’ve seen since the beginning, too many members of the media are crossing too many lines: interviewing children, interrupting worship services, and now we have

Reason 11,487 CNN is tanking…. Watch Piers Morgan lose his composure, phony pose of impartiality, and thinner-than-thin veneer of civility when confronted with the facts and logic that blow a hole in his absurd and dangerous position on gun control:  

Kind of a no-brainer pick for “Time,” but check out this slobbering love affair of purplish prose oozing from the pores of editor Rick Stengel: Obama is the first Democratic president since FDR to win more than 50% of the vote

Today, on the editorial pages on The New York Times, Professor Adolph L. Reed, Jr. was allowed to launch a racialist attack against Republican Rep. Tim Scott, the black Republican recently named as Jim DeMint’s replacement in the U.S. Senate.

It goes against every fiber of my conservative nature to blame anyone or anything other than the evildoer for evildoing. But the media does not. Literally, within seconds of the awful Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting last Friday, the craven

While the media literally chose to politicize the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting within seconds of the news breaking, the National Rifle Association has shown extraordinary class in staying above the fray. The pro-gun rights group has remained silent throughout,

That Joe Scarborough  would make a grand announcement first chance Monday morning to renounce his previous stand against gun control surprised absolutely no one. But without even a hint of evidence, before we even know what motivated the wicked loser

This morning on “CBS This Morning,” left-wing co-hosts Charlie Rose and Norah O’Donnell dropped every posture of objectivity to bludgeon Chicago mayor Rahm Emanuel for what they framed as the Obama Administration’s gun control “cowardice” during the President’s first term.

Murders in the city of Chicago, Illinois, are up over last year and could hit 500 by the end of this year. That’s 41 a month, and you don’t need me to tell you that almost all of those homicides

This appeared on the online editorial pages of The New York Times today: —   —     — Christian-mockery aside, this use of the image of Jesus Christ is at best disrespectful. One wonders if an online advertising firm

Though he’s not dismissing the idea of gun control, ABC News’s Chris Cuomo is someone in the media willing to look beyond gun control for other pro-active solutions to these mass shootings — like posting armed guards at our schools
