Bozell: Media Ignoring Pope's Call for Protecting Religious Liberty

"Not a single network news outlet caught the visual and the words of Pope Francis turning and rebuking Barack Obama on religious liberty," Media Research Center founder and president Brent Bozell told Fox News's Neil Cavuto this afternoon.

Atlantic Writer Suggests God Raped The Virgin Mary

Jeffery Taylor, a liberal writer for The Atlantic, took to Salon this week to try and ease his conscience on the issue of Christianity. He did this, naturally, by completely blasting the faith of millions of Americans, Catholics and otherwise, with obscene and offensive comparisons and descriptions, along with a few slaps directed toward GOP candidates who confidently profess their faith.

CNN's Avlon Suggests 1980s Not 'Great' Because Lacked Gay Civil Rights

On Thursday's New Day, during a discussion of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump's interview from earlier on the show, CNN political analyst and Daily Beast editor-in-chief John Avlon suggested that America was not really so "great" during the Ronald Reagan years partly because, on "gay civil rights, things were not getting done."

'SVU' Hits All Its Usual Marks with Robert Durst Episode

Ever eager to tick all the politically correct boxes, NBC’s veteran procedural “Law & Order: SVU” kicked off its 17th season by fulfilling a laundry list of left-wing fantasies. In an episode that nicely combines the show's signature "ripped from the headlines" storylines with attacks on rich white male one percenters, “SVU” outed Manhattan’s Deputy Chief Medical Examiner (M.E.) Dr. Carl…

Mary Mapes Can't Handle the Truth in 'Truth' Trailer

"You Can't Handle the Truth!!!" ---A Few Good Men. Apparently former CBS producer Mary Mapes can't handle the truth at least according to her portrayal by actress Cate Blanchett in the newly released movie trailer for the upcoming fictional movie "Truth." I say fictional because Mapes in the film somehow maintains the truth of her story about George W. Bush getting favorable treatment in the…

'The Player': A Show Where Super-Rich People ‘Gamble on Crime’

Amanpour: 'Republican Candidates...Decided to Make A War On Moslems'

CNN's Christiane Amanpour wildly claimed that "top" Republican presidential candidates "have decided to make a war on Moslems...1.5 billion members of another faith." Amanpour didn't name any names, but since she pointed out how Pope Francis referenced "Thomas Merton, a Cistercian friar" during address to Congress, who, in her words, "had tolerance and interreligious dialogue as his leitmotif;"…

Maria Shriver: Before Francis, It Was 'Embarrassing' to Be Catholic

NBC’s resident Catholic pundit Maria Shriver proclaimed on MSNBC on Wednesday afternoon that Pope Francis has now made it possible to enter a Catholic church without it being “kind of embarrassing.”  This is someone who might feel it “kind of embarrassing” that Grandpa had her Aunt Rosemary lobotomized, or that her movie-star husband had affairs (and a child) with the household help. She was…

'Empire' Echoes Black Lives Matter, Calls Lawyer 'Clarence Thomas'

I confess, I am a new viewer of Empire. It was all the buzz last year, I know, but a gal only has so much time for guilty pleasures. I watched this season opener with optimism, given the good things I’ve heard from girlfriends. I was not disappointed by the spectacle. The sophomore drama is clearly feeling its oats after the smashing success of its first season.
