Anchoring an NBC News special report on Wednesday about President Obama nominating federal judge Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court, Today co-host Matt Lauer asked justice correspondent Pete Williams: “Senate Republicans have vowed to block any nomination that comes from the President....what message is the President sending with this pick?”

As anticipated, the immediate and predictable reaction from the liberal media to Barack Obama’s selection of Merrick Garland was to go right to their playbook and sell the anti-gun justice as a “moderate” pick that liberals won’t be “happy” with and only unreasonable GOPers could oppose. ABC’s George Stephanopoulos declared that Garland was “a moderate” that in “any other year” would be seen as a…

Abortion is a distracter for women, according to this liberal actress. Last week, actress Sophia Bush (One Tree Hill, Chicago P.D.) sat down with HuffPost Live Host Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani to discuss feminism and abortion.

Washington City Paper reports with cheerleading that the pop-punk band PWR BTTM (don’t google power bottom) is using its “unmistakable charisma and candor” (captured in part by NPR promotion)  to impose on concert venues a “gender-neutral” restroom policy. Last month, the ABC/Univision-owned website Fusion celebrated the emphasis on "trans-friendly" bathrooms.

As soon as Barack Obama nominated Merrick Garland to replace Antonin Scalia on the Supreme Court, the hosts at MSNBC immediately began to wonder if the choice of a “white male” was a mistake. Though making the predictable assertion that Garland was definitely a reasonable “moderate,” journalist Ron Allen worried, “But, there's going to be a lot of concern about this choice by many people who are…

Even before President Obama announced D.C. appeals court judge Merrick Garland would be his nominee for the Supreme Court on Wednesday, ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS This Morning both hailed Garland as a “moderate” leading contender for the nod.

It has just been announced that President Obama will nominate Merrick Garland to NOT being confirmed to the Supreme Court. The Senate will be following the advice of Joe Biden to not confirm any nominations to the Supreme Court so Garland's name is doomed to fade away to being a mere footnote in history. On the plus side, another possible nominee, Sri Srinivasan, although he was not named by…

You might call it “An Atheist’s Guide to Theism.” Whatever you call it, National Geographic will add a big pinch of the secular to its new docu-series "The Story of God." Oscar-nominated actor and atheist Morgan Freeman will host and executive produce the six episode series, which will feature the star embarking on an “epic adventure and profoundly personal journey into the eternal mysteries of…

The editorial page crew at Investor's Business Daily published an editorial Tuesday on "Recoiling at Drudge's Pro-Trump Bias." Surely, they acknowledged, the Drudge Report has never pretended to be unbiased. But Matt Drudge's formula of grasping any hot political story with viral potential has clearly been abandoned for a more obvious calculation of promoting one candidate for president.

Riffing off a clip of Ted Cruz welcoming Marco Rubio followers to his fold, Mika Brzezinski went on an extended critique of Cruz's mannerisms on today's Morning Joe. Steve Schmidt joined in, accusing Cruz of "oozing insincerity." Joe Scarborough pretended not to know what the others were talking about, facetiously wondering "what are you talking about? You didn't think that was from the heart?"

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews was still hard at work making befuddling statements early Wednesday morning following the third installment of Super Tuesday with comments that mocked “neocons” as wanting everyone to go into battle “for Israel” as “blah, blah, blah” while fellow panelist Joy Reid attacked Rubio’s concession speech as unoriginal and mash-ups of Reagan and President Barack Obama.

On the premiere night of Crowded, a show that depicts life in a multi-generational home, NBC decided that the ‘Pilot’ did not have enough random sex talk between daughters and their mom, parents smoking pot stashed by the daughters in the playroom, and granddad telling his son that “you love your children, you don’t like them.” No, the network went on to run a second show to give audiences a full…

Waiting until shortly after Donald Trump’s Super Tuesday 3 victory speech in Florida, Fox News channel host Megyn Kelly responded indirectly at Trump’s latest Twitter tirade against her by citing how he seems to do that on a near constant basis and later hit back at the billionaire by citing the overwhelming amount of free media coverage he’s amassed. 

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews went on a Super Tuesday rant about Citizens United and Republican voter ID laws. After Chuck Todd discussed what the primary process should be in years forward, the subject was tossed to Matthews. He rambled, “One thing I do is get rid of Citizens United, completely. I really think it should be back to one person, one vote....I spent a lot of time on the air on Hardball…
