The media campaign to replace the conservative late Justice Antonin Scalia with an Obama appointee has begun.

"Democrats often have the media on their side because of liberal bias."
That sounds like a very common complaint among conservatives. However, that is exactly what liberal Mark Halperin stated yesterday on Bloomberg's With All Due Respect when he admitted the very obvious.

"John Kasich Is No Moderate" a teaser headline at MSNBC.com's home page warns over an ominous black-and-white photo of the Ohio governor.

NBC and MSNBC, the networks that allowed massive conflicts of interest with the racial activism of the Rev.

AP Celebrates End of St. Patrick’s Day Parade ‘Exclusion’
Just in time for the feast day of the patron saint of Ireland, the Associated Press decided to feature a story on New York City’s annual St. Patrick’s Day parade, but if you thought it was a story on the history of the parade or Irish heritage, you’d be sadly mistaken.
