From 'Pope' to 'Nazi': Morning Joe's Love-Hate Relationship with Trump
The vicissitudes of election coverage over the past year have made one thing certain: Morning Joe has been on an emotional rollercoaster with Republican nominee Donald Trump.

NYT: Online Birth Control For 13-Year-Olds, No Problem
According to The New York Times reporter Pam Belluck, online contraceptive apps are bringing an end to the world where a doctor might make a girl feel “uncomfortable” asking for contraception by telling her, “You’re too young.” Now, even girls as young as 13 can buy contraception online, and Belluck doesn’t seem to have any problem with that.

The Media as One Cheerlead Another Government Power Grab
The American media cabal is…ridiculous. They are the Borg of politics - many entities, but of but one Leftist mind. Led around by their noses by whatever hack government-growing politician is before them at that moment.
Just as they calmly repeated the "ventriloquized" Obama line on the Iran deal, so they're doing with the latest ruling on "Net neutrality."
Low Information Activism: People Mag Urges Gun Control
People Magazine is doing its bit for our republic, and a thankless task it must be.

NPR: Mateen Evoked ISIS to Gain 'More Publicity'...for Shooting 100!
On NPR’s Weekend Edition Saturday, the play-down-Islam game was in full swing. The headline online was “Orlando Shooter Update: Few Warning Signs Point To Radicalization.”

CNN: Liberal Bias on Guns Is Focusing on One Type of Gun Violence
In a rather bizarre exchange on CNN’s Reliable Sources, moderator Brian Stelter admitted that there is a liberal bias when covering shootings, but it’s not about pushing gun control. “We heard this at the investigative reporter and editor's conference this weekend that’s going on,” Stelter chatted with NPR’s Michael Oreskes, “The panel of gun reporting experts agreed that sometimes there's too…

Asked why the transcripts would only be partial, Lynch told MTP host Chuck Todd…
WashPost Never Reviews Levin Books, But Promotes Salon's 'Ratf**cked'
Here’s one easy way to demonstrate a newspaper is liberal and has no intention of treating Tea Party conservatism seriously. The Washington Post has skipped doing any book review of the last three best-sellers over the last five years by radio host and constitutional law expert Mark Levin: Ameritopia, The Liberty Amendments, and Plunder and Deceit.
But they made space on Sunday for a 1710-word…
