Libs Gone Insane: I Want A Person of Color to Play Ryan Seacrest
Editor’s Note: Normal people might find some of this offensive. (We hope. Dear Lord, please!)
I like vanilla. I have all my life. Even when I like spin-off ice cream flavors, they usually feature vanilla -- chocolate chip, cookies and cream, etc. Only vanilla is no longer an option in 2016 America.
How to Get Away with a Gay Threesome on ABC
Remember when How to Get Away with Murder's creator, Peter Nowalk, promised to use gay sex "to right the wrong of all of the straight sex that you see on TV?" On Thursday’s show, he uses a gay threesome as the tonic for Connor's (Jack Falahee) broken heart.
'Pitch's' Swing and a Miss at #Feminism
Within the first five seconds of Thursday's episode, I was already thankful that the events on Fox's new sports drama Pitch are fictional. Partly because I don’t understand how on earth a 23-year-old girl (sorry, woman, they emphasize) could match up to men twice her size in any sport. But mostly, it’s because I don’t know how long I’d be able to stand the hashtag #PutHerInTheGame.
Family Planning: 12 Network Employees Worked at Planned Parenthood Too
We’ve long known of the revolving door between the media and the Democratic party. George Stephanopoulos, Josh Earnest and Chris Matthews are just three of the many who’ve made the transition from policymaking to news shaping, or vice versa. Less known is the revolving door between America’s busiest abortion facility and the media. At least 15 employees are professionally connected to both one of…
NYT: Whiteness Is Reason For GOP Outrage On Trump Tape
According to New York Times reporter Yamiche Alcindor, the outcry over Donald Trump’s hot-mic audio has something to do with race. After the presidential candidate’s lascivious comments went public last week, many Republicans rescinded their endorsement. But some journalists claim that the reason was not the mogul’s vulgar words, so much as the target of those words: a white woman.
NYT’s Kristof: Media’s ‘Lack of Religious Diversity’ A ‘Weakness’
It’s rare, but sometimes liberal and conservative journalists do agree on the problematic nature of media bias. On Tuesday evening, New York Times journalist Nicholas Kristof voiced his concern on Twitter about the “lack of religious diversity” in the media. His tweet came in response to the disturbing revelation of emails from Clinton staffers that denigrated Catholicism and evangelical…
'South Park' Shocks with Naked 10-Year-Olds
There South Park goes again, finding a line and going miles across it. Wednesday night’s episode was titled “Wieners Out” and, yes, that’s meant to be taken literally. How creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone got cartoon elementary school boys pulling down their pants and showing their wieners on TV past the censors, I will never know.
Gov Invokes Reagan as He Rounds Up Muslims on ‘Designated Survivor'
In Wednesday night’s episode of the ABC drama Designated Survivor, “The Enemy,” President Ronald Reagan is invoked by a bigoted governor who is rounding up Muslims in the wake of an attack on the State of the Union that killed the president and his cabinet, Supreme Court justices, and all but two members of Congress.
‘Blackish’ Abandons Girl in Elevator, Because Black Males a Threat
Wednesday night’s edition of Blackish, titled ‘Who’s Afraid of the Big Black Man,’ sought to solidify an image in the mind of the viewers. Specifically, an image of the black man as the scariest creature of them all.
New ABC Comedy Gets Conservatism COMPLETELY Backwards
ABC’s new comedy American Housewife premiered Tuesday night but completely missed the mark in depicting the philosophically conservative son in the family, as frequently happens. The pilot took the intellectually lazy way out and portrayed the conservative son as uncaring, money-grubbing, and selfish.

NBC Show To Air Trump-Themed Episode 13 Days Before Election
An upcoming episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit highlights a politician’s failing campaign after he is caught in the throes of sexual misconduct allegations. The segment – titled “Unstoppable” – airs less than two weeks before the election. Coincidence?
Nets Silent on Trump Pro-Life Support, Stress Clinton Abortion Backing
The networks have long been friends of Planned Parenthood, which turns 100 on Sunday. So when the nation’s largest abortion provider endorses one of their favorite politicians, it’s like a media match made, well, not in heaven.
