Sci-Fi Show: Supporting Legal Immigration Makes You Sound Like A Bigot
CW’s Roswell, New Mexico got off to a terrible start with its outright propaganda for illegal immigration in the premiere. Now, it seems to be doubling the effort. The most recent episode is so pro-illegal immigration that legal immigration is practically bigotry.
Mis-Covering the Covington Kids: The Eight Worst Media Reactions
It used to be that journalists didn’t need fire safety seminars to know they could get burned publishing stories that lacked facts or context.

Nation Magazine Uses Super Bowl to Complain about Racial Inequality
Attempting to squeeze their way in front of the glaring spotlight that is the Super Bowl this weekend will be numerous social justice protesters.

Showtime's 'SMILF' Fantasizes of Harvey Weinstein, Steals Virgin Mary
Despite terrible storylines and a notable, real-life #MeToo-type scandal, Showtime’s SMILF has somehow returned for a second season. In an effort to prove how grossly insane that decision was, the latest episode goes full throttle with the disgusting and sacrilegious “humor.” Sadly, last week's fairly tame season two premiere seems to have only been a fluke.
UK Outlet, The Telegraph Pays Damages to Melania Over Cover Story
Accountability from the media? Say it ain’t so, Brian Stelter! It’s been a banner couple of weeks for fake news. First there was Buzzfeed’s reckless insistence on unverifiable Trump collusion, and then there was the sick media feeding frenzy over the “racist” Covington Kids that weren’t racist. But there was a third that maybe you haven’t heard about: The Telegraph’s (U.K.) fabricated expose on…
'Shameless' Calls Abortion 'Reduction,' Corrects 'Babies' to 'Embryos'

'Supergirl': Gender Transitioning Young Affirms Your 'Authentic Self'
CW’s Supergirl has promised to debut the first transgender superhero on television, and now we’ve reached the cusp of that character's origin story.

Actress Patricia Arquette Thanks Robert Mueller at SAG Awards
The 25th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards (SAG) aired on TBS and TNT in a two-hour live production on January 27. Just as I was thinking that half-way through the show politics had not entered the fray, unlike last year, then Patricia Arquette won the SAG Award for the Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Movie or Limited Series.
Harry Potter's Radcliffe Tells Brady To Ditch MAGA Hat
Hey, Tom Brady, while you and your coaches and teammates are preparing to take on the Los Angeles Rams in Sunday's Super Bowl, you would do well to trash that MAGA hat sitting in your locker. That's the advice you're getting from Daniel Radcliffe, star of the Harry Potter movies, who tells Brady he's terrific and he's behind him, but the hat must go. President Donald Trump is, after all, as bad…
Obama, Warriors Meet in Washington For Progressive Pow Wow

Short Togas: WashPost Goes Greek, Says Covington Kids’ Hats ‘Provoked’
It’s clear to anybody who cares to see that the Covington kids were smeared by a partisan media and the outright lies of political opportunist Nathan Phillips. That doesn’t mean rags like The Washington Post won’t go on obfuscating and spinning. After all, the teenagers wore [cue ominous music] “Make America Great Again” hats!
Mermaid Drama's New Villain is Oil Companies, Off-Shore Drilling
Freeform’s sci-fi fantasy series Siren returned Thursday night and it looks like the second season is going to make a huge splash with a liberal agenda. Last year the perils of over-fishing was a subplot that came up, but it looks like already this year’s bad guys are going to be the evil oil companies. There were also some romantic feelings hinted at between a man, woman, and a mermaid, and now…
'Suck It!' Comedy Show Celebrates Birthday by Flipping Off Trump Tower
It’s 2019 and still Trump’s America so I guess it is to be expected that a young woman turning 30-years-old in Manhattan would feel good about flipping the bird at Trump Tower while celebrating her birthday. The gesture is filmed for social media, complete with skull emojis. How mature!
