California's $15/Hr. Min. Wage Gives Public Union Employees Big Raises
A Los Angeles Times story by Liam Dillon and Patrick McGreevy hailed the "historic" increase in the state-mandated minimum wage to $15 an hour.
Apparently giddy with excitement, the pair also unwisely told readers that many public-sector employees who earn far more will be receiving big raises as a result of the legislation with having to bother negotiating with the government entities involved…
PP Chief on 'Hardball': GOP Platform Criminalizes Abortion Patients
Donald Trump only said explicitly what his other GOP primary challengers think and what is already in the Republican Party platform, according to Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards, who made the assertion to MSNBC's Chris Matthews on tonight's Hardball.
Matthews, who the night before said that making abortion illegal was "fascistic," failed to challenge Richards's assertion.
Nets Punt Again on Hillary’s E-Mails; FNC Exposes Her ‘Legal Misery'
Despite reports trickling out about the FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s e-mail scandal and one about Clinton soon being interviewed by the bureau, the “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC again saw no reason to keep their viewers abreast of this scandal on Thursday night, with only 16 seconds spent all week on it by the evening newscasts.
CBS Only Network to Ignore Clinton Temper Tantrum
Both ABC and NBC’s nightly news broadcasts on Thursday shared a video of Hillary Clinton losing her temper when asked a question at a rally by a Bernie Sanders supporter. The video shows Clinton ranting and pointing her finger in the face of the questioner. While CBS found time to include Clinton and Sanders’ criticism of Donald Trump, they ignored the less-than-flattering video of Clinton. On…
Law Enforcement Receives Rare Positive Coverage on Univision
Viewers of Univision, long accustomed to seeing anti-law enforcement stories night after night on the network’s national evening news, received a welcome break from the routine this week.
Surprise: Don Lemon Labels Hillary's Pro-Abortion Smear 'A Bit Much'
CNN's Don Lemon refreshingly went after Hillary Clinton on Thursday's New Day over her smear of Republicans/conservatives on Wednesday's AC360. Clinton used Donald Trump's stumble on the abortion to attack pro-lifers in general: "They all want to dictate a women's reproductive health care decisions...Now maybe, they aren't quite as open about it, as Donald Trump was earlier today. But they all…
MLB Partners with Fox for Female Baseball Pilot ‘Pitch’
Just weeks after MLB openly begged for a gay baseball player to reveal himself, to not be the only major American sports league without an openly gay player, it seems they will now try to one-up the NFL and NBA by playing host to the first female player in major American sports history.
WSJ Gun-Training Story Cites Harvard Prof Who Called Owners 'Wimps'
In an otherwise decent story about senior citizens taking up shooting lessons for self-defense, the Wall Street Journal's James R. Hagerty devoted two paragraphs to an anti-gun researcher by the name of Dr. David Hemenway who essentially argued that it's a bad idea for senior citizens to keep guns in their houses. Of course, Hagerty left out how the Harvard researcher has previously sneered that…
On CNN, PP's Laguens: GOPers 'Punish Women Every Single Day'
As Planned Parenthood's executive vice president Dawn Laguens appeared as a guest on Thursday's CNN New Day to react to Donald Trump's initial comments about proscribing legal punishment for women who have illegal abortions, the pro-abortion activist acted as propagandist as she repeatedly asserted that pro-life Republicans seek to "punish" women by illegalizing abortion, and claimed that…
CNN Touts Decline of Marriage in Iceland

David 'Dying Husk' Brooks Praised Reagan the 'Revolutionary' in 2004
Wednesday morning, Tim Graham at NewsBusters observed how pseudo-conservative David Brooks, who is no fan of Donald Trump, gave the current GOP frontrunner credit for having "destroyed a dying husk" of "obsolete Reagan ideology" in the Republican Party.
That's fascinating stuff, given the catch of the day by Instapundit's Ed Driscoll. You see, 12 years ago, Brooks gave Reagan credit for having…
Nets Tout Trump Abortion Comments as ‘Gift’ for Hillary
On Thursday, all three network morning shows gleefully seized on Donald Trump’s abortion comments during a Wednesday MSNBC town hall to boost Hillary Clinton, declaring the remarks to be the “perfect” “gift” for the Democratic frontrunner.
National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day Celebrated on Telemundo
Anytime a major national Spanish-language television network promotes the vitality of America’s core private sector it warms our heart. So when we heard José Díaz-Balart, anchorman of Noticiero Telemundo, tout the role small businesses play in generating job opportunities, well, we wanted to be the first to say “Bravo”!
Colbert Laments ‘Passionate’ Warren Not Running for President
Liberal Stephen Colbert really has dropped the faux conservative routine as the host of the Late Show on CBS. On Wednesday, he lamented the fact that the “passionate,” “popular” Elizabeth Warren isn’t running for President. Last fall, he pleaded with the Democrat to run for President.
