NBC's 'Superstore' Gives Birth to Union Propaganda
Culture
In this week's episode of Wal-Mart, I mean Superstore, we get to one of the issues we've all anticipated since the show's premiere: labor unions. As Cheyenne (Nichole Bloom) goes into labor at work, the chaos is comical but the dialogue is obviously meant to persuade the viewer that it's the store's responsibility to take care of the 17-year-old pregnant girl.

Fox’s ‘Family Guy’: Getting Gays Angry is the Best Way to Change Laws

CBS's ‘Madam’ Hillary Invokes Marx, Sneers at Refugee Rape Victims
Culture
Karl Marx made an appearance on Sunday night’s edition of CBS’s Madam Secretary, titled ‘Right of the Boom.’ And not just in the sense that Madam Secretary believes in the aggressive use of government force and power with little to no regard for human history, or the life lessons that it offers.
HBO's 'Vinyl' Puts its Own Spin on Watergate
Culture
HBO's new series Vinyl is custom-made for those who enjoy Empire but want more drugs, nudity, profanity, and white people. It takes place in the 70's and chronicles the rise and fall of Richie Finestra (phenomenally acted by Bobby Connavale), a fictional record label owner looking for the next Led Zeppelin.

‘Bordertown’ Claims Only White People Having Sex Are Rapists, Racists
Culture
Another disgusting installment of Fox's adult-only cartoon, Bordertown continues its onslaught on conservative values.

Free college tuition is the big cause célèbre on the left these days, with Democrat presidential candidate Bernie Sanders getting a lot of support on the issue from people who don't understand that "free college" costs at least $70 billion.

You will LOVE Rob Lowe's Christian Response to a Man in Crisis
Culture
NBC's new show about the end of the world, You, Me and the Apocalypse, is a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to morality. In reality, much of the questionable material wouldn't be Earth shattering (pun intended) were the show on at a later time. But let's give credit where it is due first.

Lit Mag on Aborting a Baby: No More Costly than Beyoncé Concert
Culture
“Killin’ it” should never be a joke – at least not an abortion joke.
A “Madeleine Roe” recently wrote out “20 Tips for Your First Abortion” for literary magazine Paper Darts. From comparing the cost of a Beyoncé concert to an abortion to joking about “killin’ it,” many of the tips were crass and crude – as well as heartbreakingly sad.
