On Friday, June 10th, when 24,000 of Sarah Palin’s personal emails were released for public consumption, the mainstream media went crazy. Matt Lauer, Chris Matthews, and Lester Holt thought for sure Palin was going down. And just like I wrote

When the story of Tracy Morgan’s “anti-gay” comedy rant originally broke I wrote snarked that we wouldn’t hear anything more about it because Morgan was inoculated. After all, he’s openly hated-on Sarah Palin and did not direct “The Passion of

MSNBC is reporting that, this afternoon, Rep. Weiner will offer interviews to two TV Networks. Presumably, he doesn’t want a repeat of yesterday’s disastrous press conference. Also, presumably, he’s realized that he can’t simply “choose” to not talk about this

Trump is drowning in e-mails, letters and phone calls from disappointed supporters who wanted him to make the 2012 Race. Trump spent $100K on lawyers and accountants who would prepared the disclosure forms to show Trump is worth $7.5 B
This is the kind of thing that should make the new Comcast bosses at NBC worried about the erosion of their news brand, don’t you think?
[CONTENT WARNING: This post contains harsh language.] In December of last year I wrote a post entitled “Meet Whitney Cummings: Up-and-Coming Comic Who Steals Jokes about Handicapped Babies.” The gist of it is that at a roast for Quentin Tarantino
From the lips of former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, rivaling any lipstick-wearing pitbull, consider yourself warned: “Don’t let the media define who these candidates [GOP presidential field] are. Let us, as constituents, as voters, as potential candidates, we need to
I keep thinking/hoping, eventually journalists are going to wake up. I’ve spent 30 years in the business, always cynical about its mission (the business is supposed to attract cynics,) and waiting and wondering if good sense and logic will finally
Let’s talk about 2012 and electability… There’s no way to be sure if the story is true or not, and I don’t even remember where I read it, but when I did I knew Senator John McCain had no chance
In December of 2007, a conservative organization known as Freedom Watch created an advertisement with a message of support and thanks to America’s troops serving around the world. They were rejected by NBC. In April of this year, a Muslim

The man who “runs the world’s money” has also been called, “The Great Seducer.” While I think they had something else in mind when they were talking “seduction,” there are some similarities here between taking our cash and taking whatever
My friend Tony Katz came up with the brilliant term “racer,” the definition of which is someone who dishonestly accuses someone else of racism for political advantage. If you watch the clip below of this Sunday’s “Meet the Press,” you’ll

The Presidential race is on. We’ve already seen the first Presidential Debate, and political comics are chomping on the bit. For the past three years, political correctness has forbidden Presidential humor, so when Fox News announced the first Republican debate,
Another example of Martin Bashir single-handedly destroying the NBC News brand. Wonder how Brian Williams feels about being so closely associated with this?

—- Why so angry, Whoopi? Joy? Let’s back up a little… I’m no Birther, I simply believe that the White House and MSM teamed up to keep the birth certificate issue alive as a weapon to use against the Right.
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
