Lib Talker Malloy And a Racist Spoof: Jindal As Computer Tech from Ind
February 27th, 2009 2:41 PM
Our friends over at Radio Equalizer caught liberal radio talker Mike Malloy in a bit of hypocrisy. Malloy obviously thought his wife was a scream as she pretended to be Governor Bobby Jindal portraying him as an outsourced computer tech from India replete with cutsey faux Indian accent. Malloy's wife acted as if Jindal was the Simpson's character Apu, or something. Now, one cannot help but…

California AG on Media: 'A Little State Control Wouldn't Hurt Anybody
February 15th, 2009 4:29 AM
Not this again. With Democrats in control of Washington, the possibility of the reinstitution of the Fairness Doctrine is getting stronger and the rhetoric is getting bolder. But this time, it's getting attention on the state level - the biggest state. Former Democratic California governor and current Attorney General Jerry Brown appeared on conservative talk host Michael Savage's radio show on…

February 9th, 2009 7:51 PM
It's a question we've all been waiting to hear answered. Unfortunately, it took a conservative talk radio host to ask it and didn't come from the mainstream media. In an interview with Republican Sen. Arlen Specter, Pa., on Feb. 9, talk show host Laura Ingraham asked why he and Sens. Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins are the only three out of 229 Republican members of Congress to support the…

February 9th, 2009 12:38 PM
President Barack Obama's pick to head his faith-based initiative is a 26-year old former Pentecostal pastor by the name of Joshua DuBois.

Sarah Palin's former membership in a Pentecostal church, it was a far different story, as we at NewsBusters noted in September.:In a Newsweek…
