SHOCKING: Libyan Mob Attack Kills Four, Including U.S. Ambassador
UPDATE: ‘Full-Blown … Crisis’
UPDATE: Hey, MSM, No Fair Shouting Questions at President Gutsy Call

Just woke up to this news. When I went to bed last night, I knew that one American had been killed in the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. But when I woke up — wow. This is stunning. UPDATE: Washington Post: U.S. Ambassador to Libya John Christopher Stevens and three other Americans […]

We Are Prepared to Come Kill You UPDATE: One American Killed, Another Wounded in Libyan Attack

The other day I asked my wife where our 19-year-old son Bob was. The answer: Hiking up a mountain with an 85-pound pack. He recently enlisted in the Army, having scored a near-maximum on the ASVAB test, and will report to boot camp in a few months — some kind of delayed-entry deal — as […]

Obama’s ‘Bounce’ That Wasn’t

“To put it as bluntly as possible, the economy sucks, and the attempt by Democrats to exculpate Obama for this situation — to place the blame on Republicans, or to say that the economy would suck even worse if Romney were elected — is perhaps more difficult than Nate Silver’s statistics suggest.” — Robert Stacy […]

Speaking of Terrorists …

. . . it’s the 11th anniversary of 9/11, and the Truthers are blaming Bush again. Jimmie Bise Jr. says he’ll take the Truthers to the woodshed tonight on his award-winning podcast, The Delivery: @ozarkfaye I’m going to light into the whole stinking bunch of them tomorrow on my show. My dander is right the […]

Obama Campaign Fundraising Claim Deserves More Than a Few Grains of Salt

August was not yet over when word got around during the Republican convention in Tampa that Romney and the GOP had raised more than $100 million in August — their third consecutive month of nine-digit fundraising. The Democrats had nothing to say in reply at that time. You could hear the crickets chirping at Obama […]

If You’re Plagiarizing in J-School …

. . . that’s kind of a large hint that maybe a journalism career isn’t going to work out for you. Consider the case of Columbia University journalism student Jade Bonacolta, who decided that a great way to write a story would be to plagiarize a New York Times article published two days earlier. This […]

A Blog Post That @SoledadOBrien Will Certainly Never Read On-Air at CNN

You recall the Aug. 13 incident in which the CNN anchor was caught reading from the liberal Talking Points Memo — which had been e-mailed to her by persons unknown — in an interview with Romney campaign surrogate Barbara Comstock. What that incident suggested to me is that CNN has, in essence, outsourced its research […]
