This weekend, Chrissy Teigen embroiled herself in social media controversy when she refused to be “offended” at being offered “oriental dressing” during her in-flight meal.

The much-anticipated premiere of South Park’s 20th season did not disappoint, featuring just the right level of timely, raunchy, bipartisan satire for which the show is known.

Listen up you bigoted, insensitive, and intolerant Bible-thumping right-wing nut jobs in North Carolina. The Sporting News is gonna learn you something about inclusion and respecting people different than you.

There is no such thing as too far when it comes to liberals speaking out against Donald Trump. Take celebrities Rob Reiner, Chelsea Handler, Bill Maher, or pretty much anyone else for that matter. To add to the most recent Trump bashing, at the end of an interview with Billboard, rapper Mac Miller bemoaned that “it’s a fucking real possibility that he could become president of the United States…

Remember Planned Parenthood’s claim that abortions make up only 3 percent of its services rendered? Well that’s extremely misleading. And Live Action has just come out with a video that makes the deception patently clear. Released September 14, the video explained Planned Parenthood’s devious route to arriving at its broadcasted statistic. Live Action then does the math to show that 12.5 percent…

He also slammed the media reporting on Zika for believing that “if a child’s going to be…

The self-righteous hindsight of the left exposes itself again as progressive writer Lawrence Ware suggests, “Put simply, we need a new national anthem…” In an article published by The Root on September 12, Ware urged for the rewriting of the national anthem due to the “vicious legacy of who wrote this song and what it represents.” He referenced a Counterpunch article which argues that Francis…

Remember #OscarsSoWhite? Apparently, they still are. The Oscars’ racial makeup controversy lives on as the Academy continues its valiant quest for more racial diversity while ignoring any sort of ideological diversity. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter on September 10, Cheryl Boone Isaacs, president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, discussed the Academy’s A2020 plan.…

Hillary Clinton was no stranger to controversy this weekend. After labeling half of Trump supporters “deplorables” and becoming unsteady at a 9/11 commemoration ceremony, the Democratic candidate was diagnosed with pneumonia, leading her to cancel a California fundraising trip and scheduled appearance on The Ellen Show.  Yet, although they missed seeing her person, Hill’s Hollywood fans took to…

Like Hillary Clinton, Rob Reiner would toss an awful lot of Americans into a “basket of deplorables." Or in Meathead’s case a bunker of Archies. In an interview published on September 8, when asked by The Hollywood Reporter if Archie Bunker, a racist/sexist/xenophobic character from the 1970s sitcom “All in the Family,” would be a Donald Trump supporter.
