Syndicated columnist and longtime ABC This Week staple George Will has just been hired by Fox News. The Wall Street Journal reported moments ago:

 George Stephanopoulos scored an interview on Sunday with his old boss, Bill Clinton.

Instead, Stephanopoulos used the ten…

ABC is reporting that it is now almost certain Congress and the White House will not reach an agreement to avoid a government shutdown.

The Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) networks have colluded with the Obama administration to censor the latest IRS scandal news.

Former Clinton Labor Secretary Robert Reich typically spouted Democrat talking points Sunday concerning the battle over raising the debt ceiling and defunding ObamaCare.

Imagine a major news network anchor, in 1985, telling President Reagan that five years into his presidency rising income inequality wasn’t his fault. Ludicrous, given how the media used the term Reaganomics to denigrate his policies, policies far more successful than President Obama’s in turning around an inherited poor economy.  Yet in a sit-down with Barack Obama for ABC’s This Week,…

Friday in Russia, President Obama let slip that putting Congress on the hook, or in a political bind, was part of his calculus in asking for their approval for an attack on Syria, but twice on Sunday morning ABC’s George Stephanopoulos misquoted Obama’s admission. Obama maintained: “I did not put this before Congress, you know, just as a political ploy or as symbolism.” Yet on Sunday’s Good…

It's becoming apparent the Obama-loving media are displeased with the President's decision to seek Congress's approval to strike Syria.

Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan had some harsh words for Barack Obama Sunday.

"What's going on about voting rights is downright evil." So said ABC's Cokie Roberts on Sunday's This Week (video follows with transcript and commentary):

In recent months, the liberal media have depicted Texas’s decision to ban non-medically necessitated abortions after 20 weeks as extreme as well as additional evidence of a Republican “war on women.” On ABC’s This Week Sunday, former Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina refuted this claim pointing out that only four countries in the world allow abortions that late – Canada, China, North Korea,…

Last year NewsBusters repeatedly made the case that members of the press – in particular ABC’s George Stephanopoulos – aided and abetted President Obama’s claim that the Republicans were engaging in a so-called War on Women.
