Lifetime’s second season of UnReal premiered this week and it is an all-too-real, sad commentary on our culture. The scripted drama shows a behind-the-scenes look at the cutthroat making of a The Bachelor-type reality dating show called Everlasting where producers go to extremes to manipulate cast members for ratings.

The major news networks have a double standard on what qualifies as a “war on women.” On Thursday rioters at Donald Trump’s San Jose, Calif. rally cornered a female Trump supporter pelting her with eggs and other objects screaming “F**k Trump” at her and waving Mexican flags in her face.

The greatest love stories center on two people willing to make any sacrifice to be together, no matter the cost. Even in Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare’s lovers unite in death to prevent separation. But, now, Hollywood has decided to crush the traditional love story – a You Before Me story – in favor of a Me Before You tale. 

ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith jumped the shark quite some time ago. However, this may take the cake. On Tuesday’s edition of First Take on ESPN2, Smith took strong exception with Brock Osweiler, the former Bronco, and current Houston Texans quarterback. Osweiler opted to not attend the Broncos visit to the White House on Monday, and instead spent the time at OTA’s with his new team.

The Washington Post’s Anthony Faiola is worried about Germany. Actually, he’s worried about the thousands of Muslim refugees inundating the country and “testing the national will to protect minority rights adopted after World War II.”

The real victim of last summer’s Planned Parenthood videos was StemExpress, according to a new story by the Washington Post. Not, say, the aborted babies picked apart in a dish with tweezers.

Forget Hamilton. Created by the cast of the musical Kinky Boots, “Just Pee” is the latest masterpiece taking Broadway by storm. Kinky Boots is the story of how drag queen Lola helped a straight man save his shoe factory by designing high-heeled boots. The music is by ever-flamboyant and vocal LGBT activist Cyndi Lauper, and the book was written by openly gay playwright Harvey Fierstein. But just…

MTV is partnering up with other organizations to teach young adults to Elect This – with “this” meaning a liberal agenda. On Wednesday, MTV publicized Elect This, its new initiative targeting millennial voters participating in the upcoming 2016 presidential election.

In a week with the NBA Finals beginning, and an African-American baseball player named Mookie Betts tearing the cover off the ball (in a sport that the media loves to single out for lack of black representation), you’d think ESPN’s flagship website, the one that deals with sports and race, would be far too busy talking about Lebron, Steph Curry, and Mookie to slander President Obama’s political…

As liberals often do, Chelsea Handler exploited a group of young children for political gain. In the episode of Chelsea “Magic & GMOs with Lizzy Caplan, Bill Nye” on Netflix, she opened with a focus group of elementary-aged boys and girls.

It’s the very definition of absurdity: the networks have covered the death of one gorilla more than the deaths of 21 Christians beheaded by ISIS for their faith.

Former Major League pitcher, and former ESPN MLB analyst Curt Schilling launched into an impassioned Facebook rant against the man he wants very badly to be a former President.

The TLC Network is not exactly shy about proudly carrying the banner of radical transgenderism into your family’s living room. On Wednesday night’s TLC lineup, following something unfortunately titled Transgender Kids, was a sneak peek edition of I Am Jazz: More Jazz. The behind-the-scenes, inside look at The Learning Channel’s reality show about a 14-year old boy, Jazz Jennings, who is convinced…

In the season premiere of Freeform’s (formerly called ABC Family) Young & Hungry, the episode titled “Young and Hawaii” promotes “thrupples,” or three person couples, as the new sought after novelty for vacation resorts.
