Bozell: Untruthful Hillary's Hardly One to Lecture Media for Not Being
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton recently slammed the U.S. news media as obsessed with celebrity and more driven by entertainment than hard news.

ABC Devotes Almost 13 Minutes to 'Royal' Clinton Baby, Nothing on Keys
Since word broke on Thursday night that Chelsea Clinton will be having a baby, ABC has fixated over the news, devoting 12 minutes and 47 seconds of coverage to the arrival of America's new "royal" child.

Morning Joe Panel Scolds Sorkin For Suggesting Hillary Will Use Grandm
Who would deny that Hillary could use a little softening of her icy image? But when Andrew Ross Sorkin had the audacity to suggest that Clinton's impending grandma-hood would work to her advantage in that regard, the collective wrath of the Morning Joe panel descended on him.
John Heilemann, as is his habit, sneered. "Republican" Nicolle Wallace actually led the Sorkin scolding, suggesting…
Excited Chris Matthews: Have Republicans 'Given Up on Beating' Hillary
Barack Obama may have given Chris Matthews a "thrill" up his leg, but the MSNBC host is pretty excited about Hillary Clinton in 2016.

After discussing Ted Cruz and Rand Paul, he derided, "…
MRC President Brent Bozell Discusses Disparity of Network Shoe-Throwin
On Friday night’s The Kelly File on the Fox News Channel, host Megyn Kelly took up the shoe-throwing incident with Hillary Clinton. “That was former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, dodging a shoe that was hurled at her during a keynote speech on Thursday.

PBS Analyst Mark Shields Says Sebelius 'Stepped Up Manfully' to Take O
While HHS secretary Kathleen Sebelius was getting a polite shove out the door, PBS NewsHour analyst Mark Shields offered a note of disclosure: “Well, first of all, let me just admit up front, Kathleen Sebelius has been a personal friend.

But Shields and his…
Media: Hillary Shoe-Thrower 'Frightening'; Bush Shoe-Thrower A 'Folk H
On Friday, all three network morning shows fretted over a woman throwing a shoe at Hillary Clinton during a speaking event in Las Vegas. NBC Today co-host Tamron Hall was particularly melodramatic: "I mean, but how scary is that?...Had it hit her, that would have been awful. It would have been awful."
