CNN's Cooper Slammed by Florida Official for 'Disappointing' Interview
Anderson Cooper was sharply criticized on Wednesday about an interview he did the afternoon before with Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi. She stated that instead of discussing ways people can help victims of the Sunday massacre in Orlando, the Cable News Network anchor spent most of the time challenging her status as “a champion” for gay people. The host repeatedly charged that in court,…
Disgraced Anchor Dan Rather Criticizes Media's Coverage of 2016 Race
On CNBC's Squawk Box on Wednesday, Dan Rather somehow thought it was wise to offer criticism of the way the media has covered the 2016 presidential campaign so far.

NYT's Cowardliness on ISIS Turns Repellent; Trump Foments 'Genocide'
The New York Times lead editorial Wednesday on the Orlando massacre, “The Threat to Gay Americans,” was notable both for the words it did contain – names of Republicans who the Times repugnantly held responsible for fostering the hatred that led to the mass murder – and for the words it didn’t contain: “Radical Islam.” That’s despite Omar Mateen, the actual mass murderer, calling a local TV…
CNN's Cuomo and Steve King Debate Guns, Gays & PC in Orlando Terror
As Iowa Republican Rep. Steve King appeared as a guest on Tuesday's New Day to discuss the Orlando night club terror attack, CNN host Chris Cuomo pressed him over the issue of gun laws and also over whether Republicans should be making a point of specifying that it was a gay club that was targeted when speaking of the attack.
The two also got into a debate over whether political correctness…
ABC’s ‘Uncle Buck’ Pays Homage to Obama in Series Premiere
Tuesday night marked the premiere of ABC’s new comedy Uncle Buck. Pretty much the only even remotely interesting part of this very non-funny comedy is that Uncle Buck, instead of being a delinquent ne'er-do-well white guy (John Candy) like in the original movie, is instead a ne'er-do-well black guy (Mike Epps). Until the 55 minute mark of the episode, when something truly awful that I did not…
NYT Columnist Complains About Clinton Plan to Tax ‘Only $1.1 Trillion’

Stephen Colbert Uses a Swastika to ‘Figure Out’ Nazi Donald Trump
Stephen Colbert stooped to a new low on Tuesday night when he connected Donald Trump to Naziism and used a swastika to represent the businessman’s beliefs.

Well, Islam’s Off the Hook; Dan Savage Calls Trump Enemy of LGBT

MSNBC Uses Trump's WashPost Ban to...Attack the Reagan Administration?
Nearly two days after Donald Trump revoked press credentials of The Washington Post for his campaign events, MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell Reports was still wallowing over it on Wednesday afternoon as the eponymous host and her panel slammed the idea that a candidate would attack the liberal media as both “petulant and childish” plus bashed the Reagan administration’s press record.

Whoopi Insists Obama Used Terms 'Radical Islam,' 'Islamic Extremism'
On Wednesday’s The View, the panel discussed President Obama’s speech yesterday where he slammed those in the GOP “yapping” about him not using the phrase “radical Islam” when talking about terrorist attacks. Co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Raven-Symone defended the President’s position, while Goldberg claimed, falsely, that Obama “used to say” these words but they were never “good enough” for his…
In the Wake of Tragedy, MSNBC Praises Clinton for ‘Finding Her Voice’
On Wednesday, the Morning Joe crew provided viewers with their daily dose of Hillary Clinton propagandizing.

Thanks to MSNBC, we are reminded that through it all,…
