The insults are not particularly creative, but you don’t hear this stuff on national television much in the United States. And Bill O’Reilly or MSNBC have nothing on these guys. [youtube ZsrS3r1ZlTs nolink]
If you remember, in my exclusive story yesterday regarding the future of the “Atlas Shrugged” trilogy, we learned the following: The most interesting development, however, is that in their effort to expand television advertising, MSNBC, CNN and CNBC “have all
The Daily Show – LongformersTags: Daily Show Full Episodes,Political Humor & Satire Blog,The Daily Show on Facebook —– Why do Jon Stewart and MSNBC insist on keeping this settled matter of the origin of President Obama’s birth alive and in
There are many groups of political crazies out there: you have the truthers–those who believe that George W. Bush was behind the 9/11 attacks (like former Green Jobs Czar Van Jones). Then there are the birthers–a group on whom I
From Accuracy in Media‘s Logan Churchwell: With Republican presidential announcements approaching this summer, MSNBC has seen fit to promote their underwhelming primetime lineup with a new round of Lean Forward TV ads. Each of these spots take our beloved hosts
Lately, there have been duelling stories in the entertainment press about the future of “Atlas Shrugged.” With disappointing box office returns, the producers have been asked if they will go ahead and complete the franchise and in one interview we’re
There are Kool-Aid drinkers and then there is Ed Schultz. Even in the liberal bastion of MSNBC, the depth of his Obama worship stands out. He also doesn’t have a very solid grasp of irony. With Donald Trump’s first attack
The New Black Panthers’ much-heralded “National Day of Action and Unity” came to pass this Saturday, April 23rd, 2011. As the Party’s spokesman Dr. Malik Zulu Shabazz (aka Paris Lewis) said: “We must have justice, or else!” According to their

Howard Fineman claims that Congress’ disapproval numbers are dragging the President down. Yes, that’s right, it’s the Republicans’ fault that Obama isn’t popular. We’re surprised he didn’t blame Bush.
Like all too many Americans TIME Magazine proves that it doesn’t know what is worth celebrating, noting, or memorializing in this world. Time doesn’t know what “important” means, it doesn’t know what “influential” means, it doesn’t even know what “top”
You have to hand it to Andrew Breitbart; he doesn’t avoid “enemy” territory. The political activist/web entrepreneur/ showman is on tour hawking his new book, Righteous Indignation. Yesterday, the book tour took him to Martin Bashir’s program on MSNBC. But
I love how MSNBC’s Martin Bashir essentially begins the interview with Andrew Breitbart as such: “I think you’re Satan and you eat babies. Why do you do that?” Bashir spends the remainder of the interview using borrowed intel from Media
Hugh Hewitt discusses Martin Bashir’s biased and incendiary interview earlier today with Andrew Breitbart on MSNBC. It is Exhibit “A” in Breitbart’s case against the media in his new book “Righteous Indignation.”
Really? Because looking at this we can think of a greater embarrassment on an NBC network.
When Mighty Casey struck out, he may have disappointed the fans of Mudville, but he didn’t insult them. He didn’t brand them racists. Or at least Ernest Lawrence Thayer–the poet who immortalized Casey’s big whiff–didn’t mention any such calumnious castigations

A few weeks ago, ThinkProgess’ blogger Matt Duss collaborated with someone named Wajahat Ali, a Huffington Post writer, to produce a white paper, “Understanding Sharia Law: Conservatives’ Skewed Interpretation Needs Debunking.” The paper was a response to the success of
Seriously, if it weren’t for Fox News these guys at MSNBC would have nothing to talk about.
Lawrence O’Donnell on his show Friday read an email from a woman who said she couldn’t afford either cable or birth control so “please Lawrence,” she wrote, “shout some sense into them.” The way O’Donnell said that she couldn’t “even
