The New York Times Changes Its Mind on Rape

It was October 9, 1991. The subject was the Clarence Thomas-Anita Hill showdown and then-New York Times columnist Anna Quindlen was furious. Quindlen’s fury was evident in the title of her column that day. It was as short and simple as it was blunt: Listen to Us.

Ken Bone Quickly Falls from Liberal Grace Due to Thought Crimes

He was the toast of the liberal media for a few days after first hitting the national scene last Sunday in St. Louis during the second presidential debate.

Pundit: In 2016, Conservative Policies ‘Make No Sense to Anyone’

President Obama spent a fairly large chunk of his Thursday speech in Columbus, Ohio needling conservatives and Republicans, alleging, among other things, that GOPers have “been feeding their base all kinds of crazy for years.” Esquire’s Pierce called it the speech he’d “been waiting for someone to give ever since Donald Trump became the Republican nominee” and gushed, “There were no words minced…

Why Joy Behar’s ‘Tramps’ Apology Wasn’t Enough

The co-host of The View didn’t wait long to say she was sorry for labeling women who claimed they were sexually abused by Bill Clinton “tramps.” She made the comments yesterday and offered up a true blue “I’m sorry” today. She didn’t even throw anyone under the bus in the process. That’s something a certain presidential candidate should consider the next time he’s cranking up an apology. And that…

NYTimes Lobs Racist, Sexist, Anti-Semitic Accusations at Trump

The New York Times went after the Republican candidate hammer and tong Friday and Saturday on accusations of past sexual misconduct, while continuing to downgrade long-standing, mostly unaired charges made against Bill Clinton, a man who would return to the White House if his wife defeats Trump in November.

The Left Demands: 'Saturday Night Live' Must 'Take Down Trump'

Absolutely everything in our media is expected to unite around electing Hillary Clinton.

The latest installment of "Stupid Fact Checks" involves the Associated Press, which appears to be determined to deny the truth of any statement, no matter how obviously correct, made by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump or running mate Mike Pence.
