Liberal 'Talking Points Memo': Fox News Is Trump’s Leni Riefenstahl

A lot of people (not all of them liberals) consider Donald Trump a demagogue, but Talking Points Memo editor and publisher Marshall thinks Trump is as much of a collaborator as he is a leader. In Marshall’s telling, Trump’s invective derives in large part from an audience that’s been primed by Fox News’s nonstop emission of “hate, lies, nonsense and febrile fear.”

Nets Tout Trump Could ‘Gift Wrap the White House’ for Hillary

On Wednesday, all three network morning shows eagerly seized on the latest Donald Trump controversy to boost Hillary Clinton’s 2016 chances. On NBC’s Today, correspondent Peter Alexander proclaimed: “For the Grand Old Party, an urgent dilemma, fail to stand up to Trump and risk long-term damage to the party or confront Trump and risk his running as an independent....A Trump third-party bid would…

257 Media Outlets and Journalists Awarded by Planned Parenthood

It’s time to give them back. Planned Parenthood understands that, faced with the reality of what it does, the American public would decline to fund the nation’s largest abortion mill with tax dollars. So it makes sense that Planned Parenthood wants to keep its media friends happy. Cue the Maggie Awards.

Scarborough: Even for GOP, Hillary 'Unifying, Strong Leader on ISIS'

From the woman who brought you Benghazi, the Russian reset, the bungling of the Arab Spring, and the disregard for national security that compromised classified email material . . .  Yet , incredibly, Joe Scarborough today extolled Hillary's foreign policy credentials, claiming--not a typo--"what an amazing brand she would have to offer the American people right now. Even Republicans that are in…

Daily Show: ‘Trump Is White ISIS’; GOP Should Be Banned from WH

Seeking to crack a few jokes and draw a moral equivalency and lump together Islamophobia and liberal stereotypes of conservatives, Tuesday’s Daily Show featured host Trevor Noah and correspondent Hasan Minhaj quipping that “Donald Trump is white ISIS” and, because of that, we "should not allow any conservatives into the White House."

NBC Drama Airs Hour-Long Attack on the Second Amendment

Tonight’s episode of Chicago Med was an hour-long attack on the Second Amendment and concealed carry. The episode opens when a hero high school algebra teacher takes down a would-be mass shooter at a local movie theater, a la the Aurora Theater shooting. But before you get too excited, the episode’s title was “Mistaken.”

Bozell & Graham Column: Obama, Seriously Out of Touch

Barack Obama wanted 15 minutes of air time on Sunday night, the most heavily watched night of the week, to speak to the nation about the San Bernardino shooting. It was appropriate for the president to request it, and for the networks to grant it, but everyone knew he would say nothing new of substance because on the matter of Islamic terrorism, he never does. And he didn’t. And in so not doing…

Comedy Mocks PC War on Christmas with 'Pan-Cultural Seasonal Entity'

Tonight's Fresh Off the Boat episode, "The Real Santa," featured a hilarious scene mocking political correctness run amok in our schools at Christmas time. When Evan and his parents go to the third grade school play, they are told that a new law bans "any religious, spiritual, or gender-y connotations." Instead of Santa, this year will feature a "pan-cultural seasonal entity!"

A Churchill-Like Moment

Wisdom can often be found in unexpected places. During debate in the House of Commons on whether Britain should join the U.S. and Russia in bombing ISIS targets in Syria, Hilary Benn, the shadow foreign secretary of the liberal Labour Party, delivered a speech that approached Winston Churchill in its vision.

HuffPo Bows to Reality; No More Trump Only in Entertainment Section

It was inevitable that we would reach this day ever since the Huffington Post ridiculously announced last July that it would cover Donald Trump only in their Entertainment section. Immediately after that foolish announcement, entertainment did come in the way of the Huffington Post being widely mocked for their laughable policy. And ever since that announcement, it was obvious to many keen…

CBS Hails Australia’s Gun Confiscation After Story on Surging US Sales

In what certainly won’t be the latest case of irony in the liberal media, Tuesday’s CBS Evening News immediately pivoted from a full report on surging gun sales in the United States following mass shootings to a piece prominently touting Australia’s massive gun control and confiscation initiatives carried out in the 1990's.
