Merry Christmas? ACLU Stops School From Feeding African Orphans

A middle school in San Marcos, Cal., partnered with a local charity, Friends and Family Community Connection (FFCC), to raise money to send meals to children in Tanzania – innocent enough, right? Wrong. It…
Politico Mag Pegs Center-Right Sites With More Traffic As 'Fringier'
One of the more amusing aspects of observing today's left-biased establishment media environment is seeing agenda-driven journalists directly or indirectly convey a clearly inflated sense of their outlets' self-importance.
A recent example of this came Friday from Jacob Silverman at Politico Magazine. In his writeup on conservative firebrand Charles Johnson, Silverman employed the comparative…

Are one in five undergrad college-age women raped in the USA, as feminists, the media and even the White House says? Not so much.

Daily Show: Atheist Group 'A**holes' Who Need to ‘Lighten the F**k Up'
Instead of the Daily Show’s usual targets – conservatives and Christians – atheists were the surprising villains on the Dec.9 episode of the left-leaning comedy show.

Costello: Campus Rape Issue Takes 'Ugly Turn' With Lena Dunham Critics
Carol Costello, who got a kick out of the assault on Bristol Palin, lamented on Thursday's CNN Newsroom that "the national conversation surrounding sexual assault on campus has taken kind of an ugly turn.

St. Louis Journo: Dorian Johnson 'Rose to Fame' in Michael Brown Saga
St. Louis Post-Dispatch reporter Nick Pistor has quite an odd take on Dorian Johnson, the closest eyewitness to the killing of Michael Brown by Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson in early August.

Lena Dunham Breaks Her Silence; AP Disgracefully Runs Interference
It's more than fair to wonder why the Associated Press waited until 9:41 p.m. ET Tuesday evening to recognize the existence of Lena Dunham's most recent problems with the truth.
The AP's first recognition of the days-old story came roughly two hours after Dunham's first detailed response to convincing allegations that the account in her most recent book of being raped in college by someone named…

Has John Heilemann ever gotten this riled up over the commies ruling Cuba? If so, I missed it.
