Forty three years ago this week, Ernesto “Che” Guevara got a major dose of his own medicine. Without trial he was declared a murderer, stood against a wall and shot. Historically speaking, justice has rarely been better served. If the
Four billboard trucks bearing the message “Stop the Liberal Bias, Tell the Truth!” began circling the Manhattan headquarters of ABC, CBS, NBC, and the New York Times on Friday. The trucks will do so for eight hours every weekday for
Guess what, the little cabal of journalists is being broken up. This is frightening news to most of those in the activist old media, but for somebody like myself who has worked in that media for 30 years, I welcome
There’s a new cyber-weapon on the block. And it’s a doozy. Stuxnet, a malicious software, or malware, program was apparently first discovered in June. Although it has appeared in India, Pakistan and Indonesia, Iran’s industrial complexes – including its nuclear

Business Insider is an online news outlet founded by a couple of tech wizards from Silicon Valley. Recently the magazine had an interview scheduled with the CEO of About.com to talk about the company’s outlook. Though the interview had been
I am struck by the glut of recent examples of how incredibly biased our mainstream media remains vis a vis radical Islam. To be frank, an ideologically driven obsession with not appearing intolerant has crippled our nation’s ability to report
We have been covering reports of a computer worm that is disrupting computers in Iran. The New York Times is now reporting: “Stuxnet, which was first publicly identified several months ago, is aimed solely at industrial equipment made by Siemens
