Remember When Liberal Media Members Predicted Non-Violent Response If

It’s too bad for some bloggers that the Internet doesn’t come with an eraser. It would certainly come in handy right now to a whole slew of online “journalists” who seized on the calm before the storm on Sunday as proof that the “white” predictions of riots were way overblown. Take PoliticsUSA, which prides itself on being a source of “real liberal politics.”

MSNBC Brings On Planned Parenthood Exec. To Distort Wisconsin Abortion

For years, MSNBC has taken a firm stance in favor of pro-abortion rights activists, with daily segments highlighting their support for abortion activists. MSNBC has served as an unofficial mouthpiece for Planned Parenthood, as it regularly brings on  activists from the nation's largest abortion chain to rail against abortion safety laws across the country. Take for example a recent segment on…

CBS Acclaims Eric Holder's 'Remarkable', 'Very Personal' Speech to NAA

Norah O'Donnell gushed over Eric Holder on Wednesday's CBS This Morning, trumpeting the supposedly "remarkable" and "very personal" speech that the attorney general gave to the NAACP on Tuesday. O'Donnell also played up how "Holder, the first African-American attorney general...talked very personally about, after Trayvon Martin's death, counseling his own 15-year-old son if he was stopped by…

Target Promotes Hip-Hop ‘Rape Song

When a singer releases a lewd, explicit, misogynistic song complete with pornographic music video through your big-name store, what do you do? Endorse it, of course!   At least, that’s how Target responded to the release of Robin Thicke’s new album “Blurred Lines,” which has stirred criticism even from liberal critics for its obviously exploitative treatment of women, even to the point of…

Businessweek Finds Media Punching Bag Was Boon to Business

Texas Governor Rick Perry was a joke, at least according to the same media that had ignored his impressive economic record. The Associated Press called Perry “a political punchline on par with Dan Quayle,” while MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry warned Perry that he looked “a lot like the villain who twirls his moustache and laughs while a speeding train is headed toward the woman you've tied to…

NBC's Mitchell Spews Abortion Propaganda in Friendly Chat With Planned

In a softball exchange with Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards on her Tuesday 1 p.m. ET hour MSNBC show, host Andrea Mitchell recited one liberal talking point after another to denigrate pro-life legislation in states across the country: "On Friday, Texas became the 16th state to tighten regulations on abortion clinics in the past three years, effectively putting most of them out of…

Olbermann Gets Late Night Show on ESPN2, Can't Discuss Politics

It appears people really don't learn from their mistakes. Despite Keith Olbermann departing ESPN in 1997 under a cloud of controversy, the sports channel is reportedly giving him his own late night program with the caveat that he doesn't discuss politics.

Zimmerman on 'Slave Patrol' When He Shot Martin, Libtalker Spews

To all too many on the left, America has barely budged since the '50s when it comes to civil rights. As far as liberal radio host Thom Hartmann is concerned, America has barely budged since the antebellum era. Hard to believe anyone, even a hard-core leftist, can spread such drivel, what with a man of color holding the highest office in the land -- one to which he was just comfortably re-…

Boston Marathon Bomber Gets the Star Treatment With a Rolling Stone Co

Controversy erupted over Rolling Stone putting a smoldering picture of Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on the cover. If you didn’t know better, you’d assume this mop-topped stubbly man was the lead singer of a hot new band. Rolling Stone is not a regular purveyor of “news” covers – with the exception of their series of Glorious Obama covers. Surely, they would never consider a cover…

ABC's John Quinones Rehashes Hunt For Homophobic Americans In New Jers

With the Supreme Court ruling on the Defense of Marriage Act last month, you know that ABC’s “What Would You Do?” just had to produce a segment on gay marriage – again.  In the July 12 broadcast, the show decided to pick the liberal state of New Jersey -- a blue state for a change -- in order to find these nasty, homophobic Americans.  The scenario was simple.  Two lesbians walk into a local…

Trans Posing: NPR Explores The Need to 'Loosen the Reins of Gender Exp

You could tell it was going to be a wild night of transgender advocacy on NPR when Tuesday's All Things Considered anchor Melissa Block sent this insane-sounding tweet: “Coming up on @npratc: beyond he and she? High school students say ‘I want you to call me 'Tractor' and use pronouns like Zee, Zim, Zer.’” But wait, there is one certainty in this milieu: NPR would be channeling the Left, and…

Bill Maher Booed for Tasteless Zimmerman Jokes on CBS Late Show

It seems even the CBS Late Show audience is tiring of Bill Maher. On Tuesday, the HBO Real Time host was booed twice for tasteless jokes about the George Zimmerman verdict (video follows with transcribed highlights and commentary):
