Former Al Gore chief of staff Ron Klain -- the man played by Kevin Spacey in the very tilted 2000-Tallahassle HBO film "Recount" -- wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post lambasting RNC chairman Reince Priebus with warning CNN and NBC they'd avoid debates on their networks if they aired promotional Hillary Clinton films. The Post headline was "The RNC debate 'threat' is either a bluff or a…

Quite a few Kossacks have weighed in on RNC chair Reince Priebus's pledge to withhold 2016 GOP presidential-primary debates from CNN and NBC if those networks don't scrub their planned Hillary Clinton projects.   The most noteworthy DKos post on the topic came on Wednesday from none other than site founder and publisher Markos Moulitsas, who approves in principle of Priebus's efforts.

When President Obama said during his press conference Friday, "The one unifying principle in the Republican Party at the moment is making sure that 30 million people don't have health care," the liberal media predictably echoed his sentiments. Yet if they did a little research, such folks would find that almost half of that 30 million are those being forced to buy health insurance against…

The Chicago Sun-Times wanted readers to know it censored the political opinion of one of its drama critics – when critic Hedy Weiss suggested that tougher profiling of Muslims might have prevented the Boston Marathon bombing. Leftists see “Muslim profiling” as exactly the same as “racial profiling,” despite the race of the Tsarnaev brothers. Via JimRomenesko.com, here was the scrubbed “too…

After throwing nothing but softballs at Barack Obama Tuesday, NBC Tonight Show host Jay Leno got back to humorously attacking the President Friday. “President Obama talking to prime minister of Greece about the economy," Leno said during his opening monologue. "It's the blind leading the blind.”

Keith Olbermann on Friday was booed for making fun of Al Gore.

On April 25, New York Times media reporter Brian Stelter gave new CNN boss Jeff Zucker a “C” for his performance turning the ailing network around. On August 9, two days before he is hosting CNN’s Reliable Sources, Stelter raised Zucker’s grade:

Bill Carter of The  New York Times placed a plot twist in front of RNC chairman Reince Priebus: “Fox May Produce Clinton Biopic Reviled by GOP.” What happens if the Fox Entertainment people in Hollywood make the Hillary film for NBC? Does that result in no Fox News debates? Perhaps Rupert Murdoch might want to watch the chatter on this:

The Washington Post is a legend in the minds of the Washington elite, so its financial decline has caused quiet panic. As NPR media reporter David Folkenflik put it, “You think of stories like the Pentagon Papers, Watergate, these are all stories where The Washington Post led the nation's understanding, the world's understanding of some major issues.” Outside the liberal media, you wonder how…

Would the media feel compelled to cover the IRS Tea Party-targeting scandal if investigators found that targeting was ongoing in the Obama administration? Apparently not. It didn't come up at Obama's press conference. Paul Bedard of The Washington Examiner reported Friday that the House Ways and Means Committee was told "the agency is still targeting Tea Party groups, three months after the…

Just in time for the start of the NFL's preseason, the leftist online publication Slate is fed up with the hateful nickname of that NFL team in Washington. On Thursday, editor David Plotz self-righteously penned an article announcing that Slate will no longer refer to that team as the “Redskins.” Plotz explained in the second paragraph: “For decades, American Indian activists and others have…

During the Wednesday edition of his program, Fox News anchor Shepard Smith, not known as any sort of conservative, attacked the government for being dishonest and witholding critical information from Americans while at the same time also undertaking highly invasive surveillance programs. “I don’t believe much of anything they say anymore. Because I can’t figure out which parts to believe, so…

As NewsBusters previously reported, three Clinton-loving MSNBCers on Thursday spoke out against NBC's upcoming miniseries about Hillary. On Friday, CNN's Candy Crowley told Politico that her network's planned documentary on Clinton "makes it very difficult for me":

Joy Behar used her final appearance as co-host of ABC’s The View Friday to actually drop an F-bomb. Such was directed at the late ABC News anchor Harry Reasoner and for the benefit of co-host Barbara Walters (video follows with transcript and commentary):
