CBS & NBC Play Footsie With Iran, Tout Terrorist Regime Sliming U.S.
Both CBS This Morning and NBC’s Today show on Friday boasted of exclusive interviews with top Iranian officials eager to attack the United States and condemn international sanctions against the terrorism-sponsoring regime.

Rapinoe: My Fox News-Watching Parents ‘Need Therapy,’ Trump’s A ‘Joke'
Megan Rapinoe is still milking the spotlight with her “unapologetic” gayness, hatred for Donald Trump and — forgive me for almost forgetting — her success as a female soccer player.

Damned If You Do: Trans Film Angers Trans Types
Sometimes, reading about stuff lefties find controversial is like observing two people argue over what the proverbial tree that fell in the forest would have sounded like if anybody had been around. It’s all rather obscure and meaningless.

New York Times Warns Often of 'Far Right,' But Not a 'Far Left'
One of the ways that "objective" reporters betray a liberal bias is in the use of ideological labels. Journalists warn people about "conservative" groups, while the liberal groups they favor aren't described as liberal, but with ameliorative PR terms like "civil rights groups," "environmental advocates," and "women's groups." David Rutz at the Washington Free Beacon offered new evidence by…

New HBO Series Hits Rock Bottom with Mockery of Christians
