"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Like Fish Don’t Notice Water

CNN President Jeff Zucker declares his network won’t “be shamed into” covering a congressional investigation of the Benghazi scandal, as he claims the pressure to cover Benghazi comes from “others who have political beliefs that want to try to have temper tantrums.” Mocking CNN’s bizarre and monomaniacal devotion to the story of a disappeared jet, […]

Sweet Revenge: @SarahPalinUSA on the Media’s Hillary Double Standard

The ironic payback for Trig Trutherism: Now that liberals want to protect Hillary Clinton from scrutiny and criticism — especially questions about the 66-year-old former Secretary of State’s health — Sarah Palin is there to remind the media of how they treated her: Hey! Hillary’s brain is off-limits! Leave her health records alone! Democrats are […]

David Gregory: He’s So Crazy, He Thinks We’re Still Watching ‘Meet the Press’

The Washington Post reports that NBC hired a “psychological consultant” to interview David Gregory as part of a desperate effort to find out why ratings for Meet the Press have fallen to their lowest point ever — as in, since 1947.

MSNBC’s War on Women: Why Has Network Abandoned Wendy Davis?

Simple answer: Because she’s an embarrassing loser!

The New York Times resolutely refused to see a pattern […]

Noel Sheppard, R.I.P.

In announcing the death of Newsbusters’ Noel Sheppard, Brent Bozell III uses the word “prolific,” and he was famously so. The dude could really crank it out, and some MRC staffers would joke sarcastically how Noel was capable of taking whatever was in the headlines and turning it into a media bias story. This is […]

Hey, Stop Raping Fat Chicks!

Peter Paul Rubens, Rape of the Daughters of Leucippus (1618) This public service announcement should not be necessary, but unfortunately there seems to be some confusion on the subject: Rape culture is prevalent, insidious, and normalized in our culture. . . Fat women face an extra special facet of rape culture though — the fact […]

MSNBC and Obama Tanking Together

Two headlines: MSNBC is in serious trouble — Politico Poll: Obama’s disapproval rating hits a new high — Washington Post Hating Republicans is a poor substitute for sound policy, and it’s also not an adequate rationale for a news organization: In a world where liberals wanted to be outraged by George Bush every night, or […]
