Barely News: Rep. Lummis's 'Most Moving Moment' at Gruber Hearing
Dictionary.com defines "glib" as "readily fluent, often thoughtlessly, superficially, or insincerely so."

Live Nativity Scene at Supreme Court Challenges ‘Media Elite’
If you were on Capitol Hill midday Thursday you probably saw something unusual; a donkey, two camels and a procession of people dressed in Biblical attire. The religious liberty advocacy group Faith and Action hosted their annual Christmas event in D.C. and N.Y.C. where actors and animals portray the Biblical figures of the original Christmas story. The N.Y.C. nativity scene was reported on by…
Remember When MSM Mocked Michele Bachmann's $2 Gas Pledge?
So who's crazy now? In 2011, the MSM mercilessly mocked Michele Bachmann for saying that if she became president, gas prices would fall to under $2/gallon. Typical was Time magazine, which called her prediction "fantasy." Time mocked Bachmann's drill, baby, drill policy, sniffing that if implemented, "prices at the pump might drop a whole 3 cents a gallon."
But on CBS This Morning, there was …
Bozell & Graham Column: Slaughtering 'Sons of Anarchy'
The year is winding down with some good TV news: the amoral biker-gang drama “Sons of Anarchy” has ended its seven-year run on the cable channel FX, after a final season drenched in pointless sex and violence.

ABC Family Proudly Announces 'Transgender Docu-series' with Seacrest
This headline is a bit amazing: “ABC Family Orders Transgender Docuseries Produced by Ryan Seacrest.” Pat Robertson sold his Family Channel, and Disney is taking it in an entirely different direction. In 2011, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) announced that ABC Family was the most pro-gay network of the ten networks it reported on. In the summer of 2013 came The Fosters,…
Ferguson Protesters Dominate CBS's 'Young Adults' Panel on Race

Friday's CBS This Morning and NBC's Today both spotlighted the walk-out protest on Thursday of a group of congressional staffers, who gave the "hands up, don't shoot" gesture of the groups protesting the grand jury's decision in the Michael Brown case. NBC's Tamron Hall trumpeted the "powerful statement without words" on the steps of the U.S. Capitol. CBS's Jeff Glor noted that the participants "…
NBC, CBS: 'Ugly Compromise' On Budget With GOP 'Christmas Presents'
On Friday, NBC's Today and CBS This Morning sympathized with left-wing Democrats upset by portions of a budget deal passed in the House Thursday night.

In the end, compromise, even…
DOJ Debunks WH’s Stats on College Rape, Will Media Report?
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.
A new report, ironically from the White House’s own Department of Justice, reveals that number is significantly lower than the media and the administration had reported previously.

NYT Offered Advance Approval for Fawning Liberal Column
The ongoing scandal involving a hack attack on a major Hollywood studio has ensnared liberal columnist Maureen Dowd.
