Bozell, Hannity Look at How Media Downplayed, Ignored Lerner, Had Time

"I've been saying it from the very beginning," NewsBusters publisher Brent Bozell reminded Fox News Channel's Sean Hannity. When it comes to Obama administration scandals, the liberal media are eventually forced to cover them, but "they'll do a couple of stories, and then they'll say, we're done and they'll walk away."  That's exactly why the liberal media returned to adoring lapdog form last…

Networks Don't Share Bill O'Reilly's Fury at IRS Boss Visiting White H

On Thursday night’s O’Reilly Factor, the Fox News host opened the show by attacking former IRS commissioner Douglas Shulman for visiting the White House 157 times, almost four times as many appearances as Hillary Clinton. O’Reilly hinted this was a “smoking gun” of the White House running the IRS harassment campaign of the Tea Party. But guess what: this fact of Shulman’s well-worn path to…

Over at the Daily Kos, they have identified one of the villains that's creating a "rape epidemic" in the military: it's the Rush Limbaugh show airing on the Armed Forces Network around the world. These leftists have tried to remove Rush from AFN in many ways, but this must be the lowest.

Domestic Propaganda: NY Times Puffs Al Jazeera America's U.S. News Foc

The New York Times’ Brian Stelter is super-excited about the debut of Al Jazeera America sometime later this summer. He’s especially enthused that AJA “wants to be American through and through,” and is “aiming to have virtually all of its programming originate from the United States.” And that makes sense. Even Stelter, a fan-boy of all things Al Jazeera, must realize that pre-martyrdom…

Bradley Manning: The Hero of a New WikiLeaks Documentary 'We Steal Sec

Julian Assange is no hero. Hollywood loves the idea of being subversive of the “military-industrial complex,” so Assange is a natural protagonist for them. In the new documentary "We Steal Secrets," leftist filmmaker Alex Gibney decided that Assange was more morally complex – beginning the minute he demanded payment to be interviewed for Gibney’s movie. Gibney and other leftists arrived at the…

New Kristen Wiig Comedy Mocks Lying 'George Boosh

Saturday Night Live alum Kristen Wiig's next comedy, Girl Most Likely, takes a page out of Hollywood's dog-eared playbook. When in doubt, bash Bush. The Bridesmaids star plays a burned out woman who goes to live with her estranged mother (Annette Bening). The two clearly have a ways to go before they reconnect, and part of the problem is mama's new beau (Matt Dillon).

Glenn Beck Reads Threat of OWS Violence Posted by Notorious Web Laughi

On his Wednesday radio show, Glenn Beck read a threat of Occupy Wall Street violence that appeared on the Web. Although no author was mentioned, it was written by DU fraudster William Rivers Pitt  who has a history of involuntarily turning himself into a Web laughingstock on numerous occasions. Remember the Karl Rove indictment hoax back in May 2006? Pitt was one of the perpetrators of that…

Rasmussen Column: Consumers Set to Repeal a Big Part of ObamaCare

Most stories about the president's health care law these days are about the challenges of implementation and the complexity of setting up exchanges. But that's not where the action is. What's more important is that insurance companies, benefits consultants and others are actually reading the 2,000-page law to see what it says.

Walter E. Williams Column: In a Way, We Deserve the IRS We've Got

Individually, Americans do not deserve to be subservient to such a fear-mongering, intimidating and powerful agency as the Internal Revenue Service; but collectively, we do. Let's look at it. Since the 1791 ratification of our Constitution, until well into the 1920s, federal spending as a percentage of gross domestic product never exceeded 5 percent, except during war. Today federal spending…

Bizarre Chris Matthews: It's Like Germany Won World War II Because The

An unhinged Chris Matthews on Thursday launched into a bewildering rant, lamenting the scandals swirling around the President and suggesting that Germany may have actually won World War II because the country has high speed rail. The Hardball anchor fumed, "You look at Germany, where I just was, and see state-of-the-art bridges and super modern rail system." Mentioning Germany's subway system,…

Politico’s VandeHei Has ‘Faith In Humanity’ Because Outspoken Re

Politico co-founder Jim VandeHei showed up on PBS’s Charlie Rose Wednesday night, and from the comfort of Rose’s pitch-black studio he tossed aside his journalistic objectivity and aired out his own political opinions – particularly his disdain for Republicans. Rose had asked his guests -- Politico’s Mike Allen was there, too -- what it would take to fix the country economically and whether…
