Former Time reporter Nina Burleigh is unhappy she was criticized on NewsBusters for her Clinton-defending review in The Washington Post of Sally Bedell Smith’s book For Love of Politics.

November 19th, 2007 11:41 AM
In the free-for-all that followed Tavis Smiley’s hostile GOP presidential debate in August, Michael Fauntroy was featured by Smiley’s show and several other liberal media outlets as an instant pundit on the subject, author of the book plainly titled Republicans and the Black Vote. But Sunday night on the Huffington Post, Fauntroy slammed a not-so-new documentary on blacks and the GOP as pathetic…
Laurie David Cries: Tim Russert Won't Mention Global Warming
November 14th, 2007 10:11 AM
Reading this HuffPo entry from "Inconvenient Truth" producer Laurie David and environmental activist Gene Karpinski, it's hard to not come up with the impression that these two are a bunch of whiners.Both are outraged (!) that NBC host and former Democratic strategist Tim Russert is not as obsessed with global warming as they are.What's even funnier (unintentionally of course) is that David and…
Olbermann and Huffington Slam Giuliani for Something He Didn’t Say
November 1st, 2007 6:53 PM
Honestly, there are times when I wonder if liberal media members are just addle-minded, or so obsessed with their political agenda that fabricating news seems acceptable to them. Either must have been the case when the Associated Press, followed by the leftwing entourage of Keith Olbermann and Arianna Huffington, completely misrepresented a rather innocent statement by Republican presidential…

Leftists Ripping off Leftists -- More Plagiarism on the Left
September 14th, 2007 8:52 AM
On the heels of mine from just a few hours ago, where the AP and ABC had to admit that one of their "news consultants" had lied his way through the MSM for several years, the HuffPost has had to pull a piece from one of their contributors. Turns out it was nearly a word for word theft of an article by The New Republic's James Kirchick.
THE HUFFINGTON PLAGIARIST:
Several months ago, I published…

Since it is the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of Jack Kerouac's ground-breaking book, "On The Road," many are using the occasion to reminisce about the author. However, Tom Hayden is using this anniversary as a way to lament in the Huffington Post over the fact that Kerouac was too much of an iconoclast to buy into his collectivist leftwing agenda:
Alec Baldwin Foolishly Claims Larry Craig Voted to ‘Censor’ Barney
September 1st, 2007 9:00 PM
If you needed any more evidence as to how little actor Alec Baldwin actually knows about politics, it was provided Saturday evening in the second sentence of his article at the Huffington Post (emphasis added): "Even though [then Rep. Larry] Craig voted to censor Barney Frank for Frank's tryst with a male prostitute." To begin with, Alec, the term is censure. Adding insult to injury, a vote…
Nina Burleigh Slams GOP For 'Religious Psychobabble,' Repressed Sexual

Liberal journalist Nina Burleigh, famous for her 1998 statement that she'd happily fellate President Clinton for "keeping abortion legal," complained in an August 30 Huffington Post blog entry that conservative Republicans are sexually repressed, homophobic, and intolerant.The rockier the rib, the more likely you'll find pink lingerie under the trousers or a bullwhip and manacles in the bedside…
