HuffPo Chat Cheers on ABC’s ‘Mistresses

Perhaps it’s to be expected from the website that had a divorce section before it had one on marriage. The Huffington Post, that repository of Hollywood morality, is cheering on a new show called, “Mistresses.” Huff Post Live hosted a chat on the series called “ Glorifying Mistresses.” Sarah Symonds from the U.K., a former mistress and founder of Mistresses Anonymous Foundation, began the…

Top 10 Most Obnoxious Anti-Ted Cruz Quotes

Tuesday marks the six month anniversary of Republican Ted Cruz’s election to the United States Senate, but rather than the traditional honeymoon, the liberal media have gone on the attack against the Tea Party hero and emerging 2016 presidential candidate and his conservative beliefs.

Hume: For Benghazi to Become a Scandal Will Require ‘Relentless News

Fox News Channel analyst and former anchor Brit Hume asserted Monday night that for Benghazi “to become the scandal it surely deserves to be will require another ingredient: Relentless news coverage of the kind the media typically avoid when the subject is someone or some cause they favor.” He explained: “That’s why the Gosnell abortion horrors were played down for so long and that’s why the…

WashPost Critic Finds NPR's Sagal 'Couldn’t Possibly Sound More Nasa

Washington Post TV critic Hank Stuever is not a fan of the new PBS show on the Constitution starring NPR game-show host Peter Sagal. He adores a saleswoman who says to Sagal, “You are so conceited.” The article's title is "The right to remain just a little too cute." Stuever found the man from NPR didn’t fit well in the red states like Montana. “At a point where he couldn’t possibly sound…

On CNN Newsroom, It’s Doctor Kermit Who

Mainstream media’s limited reporting on the murder trial of Philadelphia abortionist Dr. Kermit Gosnell has been obvious.  You might think that CNN, the self-styled “Most Trusted Name in News," would pay more attention to a case involving over 250 criminal counts, including ones for first-degree murder.  You’d be wrong.  Today, CNN’s Newsroom occupied six hours of air time.  The Gosnell trial…

A New York Times story posted online Sunday evening and appearing at Column 1 on Page 1 in today's print edition included a picture of 1995 Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh -- hardly a jihadist, at least not directly -- alongside that of three real jihadists: alleged Ft.

Cal Thomas Column: Would Print News Go Better with Koch

"Mainstream media" are alarmed by reports that billionaires Charles and David Koch are considering the purchase of Tribune Company's eight daily newspapers, including the Los Angeles Times. When Warren Buffett spent $344 million to purchase 28 newspapers, there were mostly sighs of relief from journalists glad to keep their jobs. However, reaction to reports of the Koch brothers' interest in…

During Special Documentary, Fox News Highlights Media Bias In Lack Of

We here at NewsBusters have been documenting the virtual blackout of the Gosnell murder trial by the liberal media. As of May 6, the Big Three broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) have offered scant if any coverage of the gruesome murder trial of Philadelphia abortionist Dr. Kermit Gosnell.  In a May 3 special on the Kermit Gosnell case entitled “See No Evil” Fox News not only gave an in-…

Chris Matthews: Biden Predicting Democrat Win in South Carolina Tuesda

It’s not often that people on MSNBC have anything bad to say about a Democrat, especially a member of the Obama administration. That’s why it was odd to see Hardball’s Chris Matthews Monday wonder if Vice President Joe Biden predicting Elizabeth Colbert Busch will win Tuesday’s special Congressional election in South Carolina is a jinx.

Missile Strike On Houston Would Take Care Of Obama's 'Problems' (Oppon

Barack Obama isn't just the greatest president ever, he's also an especially kind man. After all, His Worship has every right to blow political opponents to smithereens, yet repeatedly declines the opportunity. As an example of the Dear Leader's admirable discretion, tens of thousands attending the NRA convention in Houston really could have been taken out with a single missile, but were…
