There is nothing more predictable than networks burying negative news about Planned Parenthood.
Pro-life organization Live Action recently came out with a disturbing video showing a Planned Parenthood staffer in Texas assisting a Live Action actor to obtain a sex-selection abortion. That practice is where a fetus is aborted if the child is discovered to be of a certain gender (usually…
Cain's Taliban 'Gaffe' Refuted by Cain Spokesman and Mere Minutes of I
November 19th, 2011 10:12 AM
Oops, he supposedly did it again. Herman Cain, the GOP presidential candidate who has experience as a rocket scientist on his resume, made another allegedly "stupid" remark. Why, if you buy the press's accounts of his statements, it's hard to believe the guy can dress himself in the morning without hanging his pants over his head and putting his socks on his hands.
Here's what Cain said that…
ThinkProgress Selectively Edits Bill Gates to Misrepresent His Views o
October 30th, 2011 10:52 PM
One of the leading liberal propaganda outlets in the nation is the website ThinkProgress which specializes in selectively editing news reports and spreading misinformation to receptive media outlets from coast to coast.
A fine example of how they deceptively operate transpired Sunday with an article promoted at their website with the teaser "Bill Gates 'In Favor' Of Higher Taxes On Wealthy" (…
$3.6 Million from Soros Backs 'Occupy Wall Street', Media Ignore or Do
October 14th, 2011 9:07 AM
Left-wing financier George Soros is at it again. While he may claim he’s not behind the Occupy Wall Street protests, funding from his foundations says otherwise. Soros threw his support behind the movement at a United Nations panel on Oct. 3, “I can sympathize with their grievances.” But he does more than just sympathize, his foundations funded groups that back the protests and steer their “…
CNN's Cooper Attacks Increasingly Popular Herman Cain with 'Keeping Th
October 7th, 2011 2:14 PM
At the top of Thursday's Anderson Cooper 360, CNN's Cooper ran his first critical "Keeping Them Honest" segment on GOP presidential hopeful Herman Cain since he is "no longer a voice on the fringe." Cooper pulled up quotes Cain made months ago, using a "Think Progress" clip, in an effort to hold him accountable for months' worth of statements on Sharia law and Planned Parenthood, among other…
Soros-Backed Voting Study Promoted By Soros-Funded Media
October 6th, 2011 9:36 AM
Once again the media is completely ignoring the fact that an initiative it’s covering was funded by left-wing financier George Soros.

The Brennan Center for Justice,…
Brooke Shields, Kelo, and Left-Wing Chauvinism
September 15th, 2011 11:45 PM
This was going to be a relatively quick post about the good news, as announced by the Castle Coalition in a Tuesday press release after being teased a few days earlier by "Little Pink House" author Jeff Benedict, that a Lifetime Channel movie is going to be made about the Kelo vs. New London eminent domain drama.
Then along came "culture blogger" Alyssa Rosenberg over at the hard-left…
Soros-Funded Media Toe Liberal Line in Debt Coverage
August 10th, 2011 11:42 AM
Coverage of the debt battle and ratings downgrade by Soros-funded media outlets followed the standard liberal line. Conservatives are blamed for blocking tax hikes, the ratings agency itself is called unreliable, and increased financial regulations are called for.
Forget the House proposal of Cut Cap and Balance. Further spending cuts aren't even given the time of day among top Soros-funded…

Third of Four Parts
Books, newspapers, radio stations, TV stations, websites and cutting edge videos. The pieces of the George Soros media empire are as diverse as the nations of the world and just as widespread. From nakedly partisan left-wing media like Think Progress, the blog for the Center for American Progress, and a TV show on MSNBC, to the supposedly impartial National Public Radio,…
Irony: Far-left ThinkProgress Takes Foreign Funds, But Media Yawn
May 20th, 2011 9:37 AM
In October of last year, the far-left blog ThinkProgress alleged - with exactly zero evidence - that the Chamber of Commerce was illegally using money collected from foreign corporations to fund its American political activities. The charge was breathlessly repeated by major media outlets, including the New York Times and MSNBC.
Well it turns out that the Center for American Progress Action…

March 8th, 2011 3:00 AM
Recently, the Los Angeles branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-LA) released a video showing a group of protestors exhibiting anti-Muslim sentiments outside an ICNA fundraising dinner.

March 7th, 2011 11:09 AM
Two weeks ago, George Soros went on CNN claiming that Rupert Murdoch and Fox News are like Nazis dangerously trying to deceive the American people.
On Sunday, an organization that Soros funds attacked Fox News by cherry-picking 53 seconds from an almost 12 minute segment to make it look like host Chris Wallace and the network he works for support the disgusting views of the Westboro Baptist…
