Al Gore Race-Baits $100 Million from 21st Century Axis Sally Forget the fact that a former vice president of the United States sold out to an openly anti-American cable network embraced by terrorists; forget the fact that Mr. Global Warming sold out to a network funded solely with oil money… In order to personally pocket a reported $100 million, Gore resorted to racial blackmail. by John Nolte
UK Guardian: Pedophiles Need Support As in the Guardian article, throughout the Gawker piece passive language was used to soft peddle child rape. The Gawker piece also constantly claimed that sex between adults and children is just a "choice." The pedophile quoted in the Gawker piece even maintained that the sex he had with his seven-year-old niece was consensual. Gawker simply takes his word for it without protest. by Warner Todd Huston 4 Jan 2013, 10:59 AM PDT

Ratings: Fox News Crushes Competition for 11th Year in Row "That said, the network still drew more viewers than CNN, MSNBC and HLN combined in primetime. It was also the second-highest delivery for the network ever in total viewers." by Breitbart News 4 Jan 2013, 9:45 AM PDT
NYT: Shame on Time Warner for Dropping Al Jazeera As predicted, with the twisted used of words as lovely as "tolerance" and "diversity," the elite media, in the form of the "New York Times," is pushing hard and attempting to shame cable outlets into carrying Al Jazeera, a television network that fronts for an ideology about as hostile to tolerance and diversity as we've seen since the Third Reich. by John Nolte 4 Jan 2013, 8:59 AM PDT
'Baltimore Sun': Marginalize Beck, Mainstream Al-Jazeera Even if they won't say so out loud, this, I think, reflects the thinking of many among our elite journalist overlords: Conservatism must be silenced and marginalized, but an openly anti-American, anti-Semitic network that became our mortal enemy in Afghanistan and Iraq must be mainstreamed -- you know, all in the name of diversity. by John Nolte 4 Jan 2013, 8:03 AM PDT

MSNBC's Matthews: Fiscal Conservatism Like Being a Southern 'Segregationist' During a year-in-review show on Monday, Dec.31, Matthews chimed in with Former Newsweek editor Howard Fineman in a discussion of why Mitt Romney lost his bid to take the White House last November wherein Fineman said one of Romney's problems was that Romney was "Grover Norquist-ing himself" by hewing too closely to a fiscally conservative message on taxes and the budget. by Warner Todd Huston 4 Jan 2013, 3:47 AM PDT
Did Al Gore Give Jihadis A Foothold in U.S. Cable Market? Probably not The first bad news for Al-Jazeera's hope of pushing its Jihad-centric ideology came as soon as the purchase was announced and TIME-Warner cable announced it would immediately drop Al Gore's little seen network once its sale to the radical Islamist broadcaster was announced. by Warner Todd Huston 4 Jan 2013, 3:32 AM PDT

Politico Trashes Breitbart Reporting, Publishes Same Story Days Later After accusing Breitbart News of "terrible reporting" on the intrigue surrounding John Boehner's re-election as Speaker of the House, Politico ran a detailed article repeating most of the same facts found in our reporting. by Larry O'Connor 4 Jan 2013, 3:04 AM PDT
Congressional Leaders Still Not Ready for Television Era "But the carrots and sticks they wielded in the House and senate have largely disappeared, and more and more, the job of a congressional leader has become a communications/public relations/management position. How can an inside political player compete with a polished president in the modern era?" by John Nolte 3 Jan 2013
Now That It Doesn't Matter, Politico Brings Up Obama's 'Debt Problem' We frequently enter into lulls in the world of political battle in which the news media feels it's safe to pose as though it is doing actual journalism. With today's lead, Politico has informed us we have entered one of those lulls. by John Nolte 3 Jan 2013
Two Americas: Gregory Not Charged, Iraq Vet Jailed The terrible massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary has not only exposed the media's hypocrisies and biases with respect to gun control, it is also a revealing look at their priorities. There is no question Sandy Hook deserved every bit of media attention it received -- that's not my point. But what about the 532 homicides that occurred in Chicago last year? by John Nolte 3 Jan 2013
CNN's Kurtz: 'What Was So Awful About' Crotch-Kissing on Live TV? The thought of Kurtz flaking for his employer is much more comforting than attempting to grasp the fact that the most famous media reporter in the country can't comprehend what's wrong with a cable news network's primetime host getting his crotch kissed on live television. by John Nolte 3 Jan 2013
Ezra Klein and the 'Rotten' 112th Congress It's no surprise to see Ezra Klein attacking the record of the 112th Congress. He's a partisan, left-wing Democrat who spent the 111th Congress promoting Obamacare--a policy that most Americans continue to oppose and that brought Democrat one-party rule to an end. But in Klein's over-the-top, dishonest attack on the outgoing 112th as the "rottenest Congress in history," he demonstrates a level of intellectual corruption that is symptomatic not just of left-wing columnists but also the warped thinking of the media in general. by Joel B. Pollak 3 Jan 2013
Current TV Chose Al Jazeera over Beck; Time-Warner Drops "Glenn Beck’s The Blaze approached Current about buying the channel last year, but was told that 'the legacy of who the network goes to is important to us and we are sensitive to networks not aligned with our point of view,' according to a person familiar with the negotiations." by John Nolte 3 Jan 2013
Liberal Paper Endorses Boehner for Speaker to Continue Purge of 'Tea Party Extremists' The Globe’s editorial board said Boehner “did the right thing” by violating the “Hastert Rule” and allowing the “fiscal cliff” deal to come to the House floor for a vote on Tuesday evening. Former Speaker of the House Denny Hastert had a “majority of the majority” rule that he wouldn’t bring legislation to the floor without support of a majority of Republicans. When Nancy Pelosi was the Speaker, she largely followed the same rule with her Democrats. by Matthew Boyle 3 Jan 2013
How Liberals Avoid Tough Questions on TV: They Cover Their Ears If you're a liberal and you don't like the questions you're getting in a TV interview, what do you do? If you're Leo Terrell on Wednesday's Hannity, you simply cover your ears to pretend you aren't listening. by Larry O'Connor 3 Jan 2013
Gore Rammed Through Current TV Deal to Avoid Tax Hikes Al Gore may not have to worry about global warming destroying the earth after all. As it turns out, his massive hypocrisy may destroy the universe before global warming can fully kick in. by Ben Shapiro 2 Jan 2013
CNN Host: Obama 'Appropriately' Chastised 'Nasty' Congress "The president has come out and said, and you know, chastised congress... I would say appropriately, I mean guys, you can't spend the money and then say you don't want to pay it back. But, said to them, 'I'm not going to negotiate on it.' Is this just going to embolden them to be even nastier and make an even bigger stink?" by Larry O'Connor 2 Jan 2013
Gun Owner-Outing Newspaper User Database Hacked, Customers Outed The Journal News is at the center of controversy yet again.

Al Jazeera Buys Al Gore's Current TV "Al Jazeera may absorb some Current TV staff members, according to the people, who insisted on anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly. But Current’s schedule of shows will most likely be dissolved in the spring." by Breitbart News 2 Jan 2013
American Journalist Missing In Syria "An American journalist has been missing in Syria since he was kidnapped more than one month ago, his family said Wednesday, less than two years after he was held by government forces in Libya while covering that country's civil war." by Breitbart News 2 Jan 2013
Andrew Sullivan Ditches 'Daily Beast,' Heads Out as Independent Now that he'll be a total independent and beholden to no editorial oversight whatsoever, Sullivan will enjoy the room necessary to blossom even more as the media's wicked id, the raging conspiracy theorist and bigot who attacks the Right in ways the media doesn't dare, but still enables by propping Sullivan up. by John Nolte 2 Jan 2013
Baltimore Sun: CNN's 'Utterly Lost Its Grip' "[T]he two acted like a couple of adolescents celebrating how naughty they had been the night before. And this went on a long, long time, with video highlights and Cooper letting Griffin plug her next junky special." by John Nolte 2 Jan 2013
CNN Debases Itself with New Year's Eve 'Crotch Kiss' This isn't one of those situations where a broadcaster was caught off guard during live television, either. During previous CNN New Years Eve telecasts, Griffin's pulled vulgar stunts. Last year she ripped off her blouse; the year prior she dropped the F-bomb. In other words, CNN actually hires Griffin to behave in this way. by John Nolte 2 Jan 2013
Fiscal Cliff: Media Spins Fiscal Insanity into Obama Victory Like Obama, though, the media simply doesn’t care about the deficit. If it did, The Narrative today wouldn’t center on portraying Obama's political victory as something that's good for America and our economy. Instead, a responsible media would be talking about how projected revenues from this new tax increase will do less than nothing to reduce the deficit. by John Nolte 2 Jan 2013
Media Taunts Begin: Ryan 'Strong Candidate for President... as Democrat' They never learn. Well meaning Republicans pressured by media hacks interested only in supporting left-wing policies end up compromising on principles and, instead of getting praise, they get hammered by those same media hacks. by Larry O'Connor 2 Jan 2013
Press Mum as Renditions Continue Under Obama During the Bush Administration, mainstream media outlets hammered President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney for their "rendition" policy that allowed suspected terrorists to be detained overseas in foreign countries and interrogated at the direction of the US government. Hollywood even made a movie about it, so you know it was important. by Larry O'Connor 2 Jan 2013
New York Times: Throw Off Bondage of 'Evil' Constitution The biggest liberal newspaper in the country has printed a column from a top progressive scholar calling on the American people to ignore the Constitution with its “evil provisions,” revealing the far-left agenda for what it is and making sense of several major actions of the Obama administration. by Ken Klukowski 1 Jan 2013
Gun Owner-Outing Newspaper Hires Armed Guards The Journal News of West Nyack, New York doesn't want fellow New Yorkers to be allowed to own guns, and what better way to show support for its stand against guns than to hire armed guards to patrol its offices? by Warner Todd Huston 1 Jan 2013
'Death of the Tea Party' Claim by Mainstream Media Premature...Again The mainstream media has resolved to periodically churn out even more "tea party is dead" stories in 2013. Tea party activists, in contrast, have resolved to use 2013 to build the infrastructure for political success in 2014 and 2016. We'll see which obituaries will be written after those two very important elections. by Michael Patrick Leahy 1 Jan 2013

The Atlantic Frets About Obama Assassination Yesterday, President Obama delivered a bizarre statement to the press at the White House. Flanked by ordinary Americans – whom he uses as a backdrop to his highly-partisan politics on a regular basis nowadays – Obama dropped this doozy: “I’m going to be president for the next four years. I hope.” by Ben Shapiro 1 Jan 2013
Georgetown Univ. Law Prof. in the NYT: 'Give Up on the Constitution' In a NY Times op-ed, Georgetown University constitutional law professor Louis Michael Seidman called for politicians and judges to engage in “constitutional disobedience.” According to the Georgetown University academic, the Constitution, “with all its archaic, idiosyncratic and downright evil provisions”, is the “culprit” behind our broken system of government. by Joel Griffith 1 Jan 2013
Disarmed Russian Columnist Warns Americans: 'Never Give Up Your Guns' Stanislav Mishin is a Russian who knows his history -- particularly the history of how the Russian people were robbed of freedom once they were disarmed by Lenin & Co. after the Russian revolution in 1917. He knows how the newly born Soviet Union then acted with impunity toward defenseless citizens, carrying out "mass deportations, mass murder, [and even] mass starvation." by AWR Hawkins 1 Jan 2013

D.C. Police Press Ahead with Investigation of David Gregory Despite President Obama trying to come to David Gregory's rescue by granting him a surprise interview, the Meet the Press host is still under investigation by the Washington D.C. police department for allegedly violating D.C.'s strict gun laws. by Warner Todd Huston 31 Dec 2012
Media Must Share Blame for Fiscal Cliff Crisis As Americans ponder how our politicians could have allowed “fiscal cliff” negotiations to drag on into the final day, it is clear that the mainstream media shares a significant part of the blame. There is no way that the impasse could have lasted this long if President Barack Obama felt a sense of responsibility to lead his government and his party--but instead he is able to enjoy the role of critic and spectator, thanks to media indulgence. by Joel B. Pollak 31 Dec 2012
Politico: Breitbart Leads the Opposition The left-leaning, DC-based Politico news outlet has named--or blamed--Breitbart News as the leader of the opposition to Speaker of the House John Boehner: "The main anti-Boehner grumbling is coming from conservative media outlets like Breitbart and Hot Air, and outside groups such as American Majority Action." by Joel B. Pollak 31 Dec 2012
BuzzFeed Reporter Mocks Initial Skepticism of Hillary's Concussion Andrew Kaczynski of BuzzFeed reacted as many of us did when news broke of Hillary Clinton's hospitalization; in keeping with tradition at BuzzFeed Politics, he scoured the archives of the Internet to score political points against conservative media. by Ezra Dulis 30 Dec 2012
How Liberals Skew the Gun Debate Along with a news-free interview with President Obama, this weekend's Meet the Press on NBC also gave us two fine examples of how the gun-banners in the Old Media establishment skew the debate, not to mention how clear it is that they simply have no grasp of the issues – perhaps purposefully so. by Warner Todd Huston 30 Dec 2012
David Gregory Fawns Over Obama's 'Lincoln Moment' NBC's David Gregory hosted the President on Sunday's Meet the Press--and compared to his last notable interview, when he verbally attacked NRA President Wayne LaPierre at every turn, Gregory was virtually asleep this weekend. by Warner Todd Huston 30 Dec 2012
'Unbearable, Rambling, Tedious': Daily Beast Slams Sean Penn's 'Journalism' Right of center Americans have been ridiculing Sean Penn for years but he's had his critics on the left as well. The Daily Beast recently joined that small group of left-wing sources critical of Penn with a devastating piece lambasting Penn's pretensions at being a social commentator and journalist. by Warner Todd Huston 30 Dec 2012
New York's Journal News Tells Criminals Which Homeowners Are Unarmed When New York's Journal News published an interactive map revealing the names and addresses of legal gun owners in Westchester and Rockland counties, their intent seems to have been to heap shame on those gun owners and direct public ire toward them as well. by AWR Hawkins 30 Dec 2012
NY Paper to Publish Additional Gun Owners' Names, Addresses The New York newspaper that drew criticism for publishing the names and addresses of hundreds of legal gun permit holders is doubling down by publishing the personal information of even more law-abiding gun owners. by Warner Todd Huston 29 Dec 2012
Obama to the Rescue: POTUS to Join David Gregory on 'Meet the Press' Host Gregory has been under a cloud of controversy since his December 23 gun stunt.

Gallup: NRA More Popular Than Media For all the abuse the Old Media establishment has dished out to the National Rifle Association this month, polls show that the NRA is still more popular than the media. by Warner Todd Huston 28 Dec 2012
NPR's Words of the Year Target Republicans, of Course National Public Radio, continuing the mainstream media practice of year-end lists that target Republicans, discussed contenders for the American Dialect Society's "Words of the Year" today, including three neologisms that targeted Republicans and the Romney/Ryan campaign in particular--and none against Democrats. by Joel B. Pollak 28 Dec 2012
Matt Lauer 'Freaked Out' Over Ann Curry Fans' Hostility Matt Lauer's tenure at NBC's Today show seems destined to end on the most sour note possible. Not only is he finding himself increasingly unhappy on the job, he's also now being slammed by fans on the street whenever he and his morning show co-hosts try to do on location segments. by Warner Todd Huston 28 Dec 2012
