Even NYT Wants ‘Mischievous Child’ Hillary to Publish Paid Speeches
In an editorial set to appear in Friday’s print edition, the ultra-liberal New York Times editorial board blasted Hillary Clinton for acting like “a mischievous child” in repeatedly refusing to release the transcripts of her lucrative paid speeches to Wall Street firms. Right from the start of the 664-word piece, the editorial board took offense to Clinton’s canned excuse that “everybody does it…
AP Twice Fails to Tag Convicted Calif. Senator Leland Yee as a Dem
The political career of California State Senator Leland Yee, a Democrat who had been running for Secretary of State, came to an abrupt end in March 2014 when the strident gun-control advocate was arrested and charged with "six counts of depriving the public of honest services and one count of conspiracy to traffic in guns without a license."
Last week, Yee, who pled guilty last year to "one…
AP Howler: 'Demand For Housing Has Recovered' Since Recession
In the context of his pathetic writeup on the government's disappointing report on January new-home sales, Josh Boak at the Associated Press had the nerve to claim that "demand for housing has recovered over the course of the 6 ½-year recovery from the recession."
Wow. Who knew that the industry has made it all the way back to an acceptable level at long last? The obvious answer to that question…
Press Accepting Hillary's Bogus Transcript 'Challenge' as Legitimate
Hillary Clinton is still sticking to her "I'll show you mine if you show me yours" strategy as the reason she won't release transcripts of her paid speeches to big banks and Wall Street firms.
She can do this because outfits like the Associated Press are covering for her. The only recognition of Mrs. Clinton's problem, beyond a strategically segregated story (more on that later), is buried deep…
Barely News: Nevada GOP Caucuses' Turnout More Than Doubles 2012
Yesterday morning, before the Republican Party's Nevada caucuses began, Nate Silver at the inexplicably hallowed FiveThirtyEight blog made a really naive and tone-deaf assumption. He reckoned that the caucuses would be a low turnout event, noting that in 2012, "only 1.9 percent of the voting-eligible population — about 33,000 people — participated in the Republican caucuses in Nevada," and spent…
AP Ignores Dems' 'Extraordinary' Record of Court Obstructions
The Associated Press clearly hopes that most Americans still pay little to no attention to New Media.
That's the only credible argument one can employ as to why the wire service's Alan Fram, in his Tuesday evening dispatch, characterized the unanimous decision of Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee not to hold hearings on a potential Supreme Court nominee this year as "extraordinary."…

At AP, Economy's Good-News Story Sticks; Bad News Disappears (UPDATED)
Two important economic reports came out today at 10 a.m. One had relatively good news, while the other was a definite downer.
At 2:43 p.m., the good-news item was still listed second at the Associated Press's list of Top 10 business stories, while the bad-news item was gone. That's all in a day's work of news manipulation at what should be called the Administration's Press. (UPDATE: At 9:12 p.m…
Biden in 1992: Without Advance Consultation, I'll Block ANY Nominee
As noted yesterday at NewsBusters, an enterprising individual poster at C-SPAN posted a 1992 video of then-Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Joe Biden indicating that then-President George H.W. Bush should "not name a (Supreme Court) nominee until after the November election" — and that if he did, his committee would "seriously consider NOT scheduling confirmation hearings on the nomination…

Bee Maligns Cruz as Murdering Abortion Doctor, Myths on Reagan
The newly heralded liberal comedy host Samantha Bee resumed her vile trashing of conservatives on Monday’s Full Frontal as she declared, among many smears, a pie chart of South Carolina Republicans to be “a NuvaRing of bigotry,” Ted Cruz “once killed an abortion doctor through prayer” and that America was crippled under Ronald Reagan’s presidency. In addition, Bee went on an extended rant…
Biden, 1992: Do NOT Name a Supreme Court Nominee Until After Election
Concerning the idea of entertaining a potential Supreme Court nominee before the November presidential election is decided, Allahpundit at Hot Air has summarized the left's current utterly hypocritical situation in a succinct way we'll never see in the establishment press: "The current president, current vice president, current Senate minority leader, and incoming Senate minority leader have all…
Mika Brzezinski: A Reporter Has Hillary Wall Street Speech Transcripts
Early Saturday morning, while covering the upcoming Nevada Democratic Party caucuses, co-host Mika Brzezinski claimed on MSNBC's Morning Joe show that a "print reporter" has "actual transcripts" of certain of Hillary Clinton's paid speeches to financial firms.
This naturally leads to the question of whether we'll ever actually see the words Mrs. Clinton spoke which typically "earned" her roughly…
