Couric: Pro-Lifers Make It ‘Tough’ to Work at Planned Parenthood
Liberal, pro-abortion journalist Katie Couric on Tuesday interviewed the President of Planned Parenthood and worried about how “tough” pro-life supporters were making things for the organization. Couric snidely noted, “While Planned Parenthood says that abortions account for just three percent of its clinical work, opponents won't be happy until that number is zero.”
Blindspot: ‘Millions’ Would ‘Lose Reproductive Healthcare' Without PP
Culture
Blindspot’s most recent episode, “Persecute Envoys,” spent most of its airtime stoking anti-police sentiment and blaming the deaths of several New York police officers on their own captain. But the show’s writers weren’t willing to settle for pushing just one liberal narrative. Instead, we get another twofer - defending Planned Parenthood AND hitting a, presumably conservative, congressman for …
Salon Writer: Abortion a ‘Medical Procedure,’ Not a ‘Social Issue’
Many products long not advertised on television now are commonly promoted during ad breaks. Writer Danielle Campoamor would like to add one more type of commercial to that list.
“Why is it that I never see an ad for abortion services?” wondered Campoamor in a Sunday piece. “Why are we willing to use women’s bodies in ads, but rarely see ads that would benefit women’s bodies?...Society has…

ABC, CBS Ignore Supreme Court’s Decision to Hear New Case on ObamaCare
On Friday night, two of the three major broadcast networks saw no interest in telling their viewers that the Supreme Court of the United States had decided to accept another major case on the future of ObamaCare as the high court will hear arguments pertaining to the law’s contraception mandate. Surprisingly, NBC Nightly News not only covered it, but offered a full, one-minute-and-21-second…

Andrea Mitchell Urges HHS Secretary to Hit Ben Carson on Abortion
In a friendly exchange with Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Matthews Burwell on Tuesday, MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell tried to tee up the Obama administration cabinet official to slam Republican presidential frontrunner Ben Carson on abortion: “...a pediatric neurologist who does not get involved with care for women's reproductive systems....says that life begins with conception, no…

Was That Bernie Blasting Corporate Welfare? Nope. Koch.
Who said it? "Get rid of all this corporatism, this corporate welfare . . . I would love to have the government stop this corporate welfare--that's what I want . . . This is a huge racket that's wrecking the country."
Did you guess Bernie Sanders? Probably not because you read the headline. Yet no one could be blamed for thinking it was Sanders. But indeed, it was Charles Koch, who said it in…

Bernie Sanders: Abortion Is 'Choice' But Death Penalty is 'Murder'
I took it for granted that a leftist like Bernie Sanders would be opposed to the death penalty. Still, I was truly shocked to see Sanders—not in some throwaway comment on the campaign trail but in prepared remarks on the Senate floor—flatly call the death penalty "murder." On his MSNBC show this morning, Al Sharpton played the clip to illustrate how Sanders is working to differentiate his policy…

Surprise: CNN Touts Model 'Giving Hope To Others With Disabilities'
CNN refreshingly spotlighted a teen model with Down syndrome on Wednesday's New Day. Dr. Sanjay Gupta reported that 18-year-old Madeline Stuart's "modeling career is taking off. She walked the runway during Europe Fashion Week this fall, and won a contract to be the face of lipstick company Glossigirl — all of which her mom says is giving hope to others with disabilities." Down syndrome people…
CNBC Debate Moderator Shrugs Off China’s One-Child Policy: 'It Worked'
Culture
The questions CNBC gave GOP presidential candidates last night weren’t the last stupid things we’d hear coming from the moderators.
Fresh off the GOP-bashing debate high, CNBC anchor Carl Quintanilla went on Twitter Thursday morning to tweet out a nonchalant tweet highlighting the effectiveness of communist China’s (now former) one-child only policy.

Latest CMP Video Confirms PP Tissue Harvesting Was Far More Widespread
Earlier today, Katie Yoder at NewsBusters posted and described the latest video from the Center for Medical Progress on Planned Parenthood's late-term abortion business and its related ghoulish work in harvesting fetal tissue from abortions for research.
Yoder's work and that CMP video caused me to remember how the Associated Press wrote up Planned Parenthood's announcement that it would cease…
Lena Dunham's Halloween Costume: Planned Parenthood Abortion 'Doctor'
Have you decided what outfit you're going to wear on Halloween? Well, liberal actress and comedienne Lena Dunham has already made her choice and announced on Tuesday in her Lenny Letter email newsletter that she's going to dress up on Saturday, October 31, “as something newsy, sexy, and cool: a Planned Parenthood doctor!”
“The most successful Halloween costumes are classic but topical, sexy but…
Liberal Media Tout Book Honoring 'Notorious RBG' Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Just as the liberal media greet Antonin Scalia as some sort of Supreme Court supervillain, they lionize Ruth Bader Ginsburg as a superhero. A gushy new book spinning off of the Internet meme of the “Notorious RBG” is making a splash in the liberal media. The New York Times hailed it as “an artisanal hagiography, a frank and admiring piece of fan nonfiction.” On Monday night’s All Things…

Chris Hayes Slips Up, Lists Abortion Among 'Touchstones of Human Evil'
Chris Hayes made an inadvertent admission about the morality of abortion on his All In program on MSNBC on Monday. Hayes contended that in the case of Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson, "It's very hard to get through an interview in which he doesn't compare something either to the Third Reich and Hitler or abortion, right? — the sort of, like, touchstones of human evil." The liberal…
Amanda Marcotte: Paul Ryan Thinks Family Life’s Only For the Rich
After Paul Ryan vowed that he wouldn’t reduce time spent with his family even if he became Speaker of the House, quite a few liberals accused the Wisconsin congressman of hypocrisy given that he has, in the words of one feminist site, “spent much of his political career fighting laws that promote realistic work-life balance for parents.”
Lefty pundit Marcotte believes that Ryan is even worse…
