You’d think a political satirist who knew the government had lied about the cause of an attack which left Americans dead would use humor to savage the powers that be. Not Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert. “The Colbert Report” host took a

You’d think Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert would appreciate the comedy stylings of Clint Eastwood’s now famous RNC speech. Not quite. Stewart and Colbert may write “comedian” on their W-2 forms, but they’re first and foremost Palace Guards. Their shows

Political news site Politico is not done needling Ann Romney for having a top-rated horse in the Olympics, apparently. Witness an actual Politico headline: 10 things to know about Rafalca. Most of the “ten things” are just facts about the

Comedy Central’s programming lineup is littered with liberals, from Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart to the new “Key & Peele” show. No matter how hard you squint you won’t find a show catering to the Right. So what does the

I regret not giving Lovitz more credit when we first broke the story of his epic rant against Obama’s “fair share” lies. I was sure the left-wing media (but I repeat myself) would pound the comedian/actor until he at least

Poor David Gregory.
