Hillary Clinton Trashes RT, the Kremlin's Network

A couple months ago I wrote a piece about RT (formerly Russia Today) titled, Mr. Putin Tear Down this Network. It seems Hillary Clinton has reached much the same conclusion. Note, this clip comes from RT itself, which seems quite

Paul Krugman vs Iowahawk

I like Iowahawk’s satire but I also like a mad Iowahawk, rendered thusly by Paul Krugman’s recent op/ed on education and states with collective bargaining. His bias superseded reason, fact replaced by union talking points. Our favorite purveyor of satire

Credit Where It's Due: Daily Mail Profiles Regis Giles

I have a love-hate relationship with the Daily Mail. Some days they really get it and other days, not so much. Aside from them using a ridiculously Photoshopped Palin photo in this piece for which they should immediately apologize and

Peter Beinart's 'Fail' On Middle East Policy

Peter Beinart, who writes for the Daily Beast, is clueless. I say this because I don’t quite understand how he sees the Middle East. He takes various conservative pundits to task for selectively pushing Democracy. He brings examples of where

Yale and Media Honchos Abuse Free Speech

The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) has ranked Yale University as among the worst violators of free speech on U.S. campuses. Alum Michael Rubin, writing at Commentary, provides examples: In 2009, Yale College Dean Mary Miller censored the
