AP Quits Use of Islamophobia/Homophobia in Reporting

Posted on December 1, 2012December 2, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

We often take after the fine folks at the Associated Press for biased “reporting.” But as we criticize when warranted so should we praise when warranted and the AP has done something praiseworthy by telling its correspondents to stop using “Islamophobia” and “homophobia” in their reporting. On November 26, Politico reported that the AP made […]

Assoc. Press Paints Murders in Benghazi as Merely a ‘PR Disaster’

Posted on November 30, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

In an outrageous attempt to defuse for President Obama the murderous disaster that is his security failures in Benghazi on September 11, the Associated Press deemed the whole debacle merely a “PR disaster” and speculated it could all just be forgotten if Susan Rice were to be successfully nominated as our next Secretary of State. […]

Slate: If You Like The White Turkey Meat, You Are A Racist

Posted on November 29, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

You can’t even eat turkey on Thanksgiving without being called a racist by our friends on the extreme left side of the aisle in America today, especially if you prefer the white meat over the dark. Just before Thanksgiving last week, the liberal site Slate dredged up a 2010 piece claiming that the reason Americans […]

College Professors Lose Hours Because of Obamacare

Posted on November 27, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

One of my favorite stories this week is the college professors at Pennsylvania’s Community College of Allegheny who’ve had their hours cut because of the costly requirements of Obamacare. One of Obamacare’s changes to general business practices is to make people who work 30 hours or more a “full time worker.” For generations that magic […]

Surprise! NY Times Pushes Obama On Gun Control

Posted on November 24, 2012 by William Teach

This is what the NY Times editorial board runs with the day after Thanksgiving, cause it’s a super duper most important issue, unlike America being broke, facing the fiscal cliff, a stagnant economy, Iran, post-Sandy cleanup, housing still in the dumps, etc President Obama’s fleeting mention of the need for stronger gun controls at a […]

In Final Week Romney Coverage Increasingly Negative, MSNBC Had Zero Favorable Romney Stories

Posted on November 23, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

According to the latest study of the last week of the media’s coverage of the 2012 presidential election, Romney’s coverage turned increasingly negative. The worst example was that of MSNBC which didn’t have any positive stories about Romney’s campaign, not a single one. The study conducted by the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in […]

NYTimes Rips Israel for Bombing Gaza Media Offices, Ignores 4 Terror Leaders Inside

Posted on November 21, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

The New York Times is full of outrage at the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) for its surgical bomb strikes launched against a few buildings in Gaza that held offices and studios of several international media outlets. But in its report the “paper of record” forgot to add one little fact: four highly placed terrorist leaders […]

Line in the Sand

Posted on November 20, 2012 by Michael Fell

Barack Obama stopped in Burma, which he insisted as a “diplomatic courtesy” on calling Myanmar (perhaps pronouncing Pakistan Pahhhkeeeestaan no longer makes him cool enough for the UN), where he managed to repeatedly mispronounce the name of Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel winner who led the fight for a free, democratic Burma.: If that […]

CNN Mad at Low-Voting Obama County, Not Worried Over No-Voting Romney Counties

Posted on November 20, 2012November 21, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

CNN was gobsmacked over a county in Texas that saw an extremely low voter turnout for Barack Obama in the late elections. On the other hand the several counties in Ohio and Pennsylvania that had zero votes for Mitt Romney didn’t bother the cable Network at all. On Friday, November 16, CNN aired an “expose” […]

Posted on November 19, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

On November 16, CBS News aired a segment full of praise for President Obama’s visit to Staten Island in the wake of Hurricane Sandy.

CNN Uses Faked Palestinian ‘Casualty’ Video in Coverage

Posted on November 17, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

In its pro-Palestinian coverage of the escalated violence in the Middle East, CNN used faked video footage showing Palestinian “victims” of Israel’s rockets being dragged off the streets.

Assoc. Press Delegitimizing Israel’s Capital City/BBC Blaming the Victims

Posted on November 17, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

Once again we see the Old Media using subtle rhetoric in an attempt to undermine the legitimacy of Israel, this time it’s the Associated Press playing the trick. In a November 16 story about Palestinian rockets being launched into Israel’s civilian population, the AP decided to try and cajole readers into feeling that Israel’s capital […]

Posted on November 16, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

McKay Coppins of Buzzfeed was one of the reporters in the Romney press pool during his late campaign for president. He is also a Mormon.

Penitentiary President

Posted on November 15, 2012 by Michael Fell

Why is Barack Obama about to be sworn in for a second term instead of being fingerprinted and booked into a federal penitentiary? There are at least three people who may eventually be able to respond to that question. In a joint press conference, three Republican senators said the only way for Congress to get […]

NY Times Dismissing Palestinian Rocket Attacks on Israel?

Posted on November 15, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

In a classic example of the media accepting the terrorist’s ideas that Israel is the bad actor in the Middle East, The New York Times had an interesting way to describe the more than 150 rockets that Palestinians have launched on Israeli civilians over the last week or so. The Times wrote that those attacks […]

NBC: Hey That Lincoln Movie Reminds Us of How Great Obama Is

Posted on November 15, 2012November 15, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

In yet another facile example of the Old Media equating President Obama’s presidency to the greatness of Abraham Lincoln’s, NBC News correspondent Kevin Tibbles used the occasion of the opening of the new Lincoln movie helmed by Director Steven Spielberg to do just that. On Saturday’s NBC Nightly News, Tibbles reported on the opening of […]

No Change, No Hope

Posted on November 13, 2012 by Michael Fell

While the “progressive” Party Pravda is dutifully focused on distracting Americans with stories about the tragic resignation of former CIA Director David Petraeus,: the White House goes merrily along with its anti-growth, anti-business, anti-energy, radical fringe leftist “progressive” agenda.: The Barack Obama administration is now making plans for the next phase in fundamentally transforming America […]

Foodstamps Surge to All Time High, Biggest One Month Growth Ever Recorded

Posted on November 13, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

The Obama administration has finally released its report on the number of Americans on foodstamps.

Posted on November 11, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

There is an intriguing letter in an advice column in The New York Times from last July.

Newsweek: Hey, Whities, You’re Old, You’re White And You’re Finished

Posted on November 10, 2012November 10, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

Your days are done, white man. In its November issue, Newsweek and writer David Frum want you GOP whities to know that you’re old, you’re white, and you’re finished. Not only does Newsweek want white Republicans to know their salad days are over (and that they are racist, no doubt), but the aging magazine has […]

CNBC: We’re Probably Headed to Another Recession… NOW They Tell Us?

Posted on November 9, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

Two days after the election, CNBC published a dour report on the economy. Shockingly, CNBC is predicting that the U.S. economy is likely headed for another recession. CNBC so helpfully tells us that, now that the election is behind us, the light in our economic tunnel could be a “freight train.” Gee, it sure would […]

Media Slammed Mitt’s Food Donations, Now Sandy Victims Plead for… Food Donations

Posted on November 8, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

The Old Media spent several days last week attacking Mitt Romney for his October 30 event in Ohio where he presided over supporters coming together to donate money, clothing, and food for the victims of Hurricane Sandy.

After The Elections: Where Is America Now? It’s Dead, That’s Where

Posted on November 7, 2012November 8, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

Due to the re-election of Barack Hussein Obama, the United States is officially a failed experiment. In fact, his election in the first place in 2008 signaled the end. Because so few of you people out there know anything about history any more, I’ll have to explain that opening line above. You see, the founders […]

L.A. Times: Hey, Did We Mention That You Romney Voters are ALL Racists

Posted on November 6, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

Sandy Banks of the L.A. Times has figured out why anyone would vote against Barack Obama. Why, they are all racists, of course. Oh, you don’t use “the N word,” she tells us, but we know what you Romney voters really think. Banks dropped all pretense of logic or fairness in her November 4 piece […]

CNN Celebrates Springsteen Rally For Obama, Ignores Larger Romney Rally

Posted on November 6, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

CNN’s 1600 Report blog is currently featuring a photo of aging rocker Bruce Springsteen at a rally for Obama in Wisconsin today. The headline reads, “Springsteen energizes Obama’s final sprint.” One might think it would be interesting, though, to compare and contrast the size of the crowd at Obama’s Springsteen rally with Romney’s rally from […]

Washington Post Jubilant at ‘Oct. Job Growth’ Then Says ‘Unemployment Rate Flat’

Posted on November 5, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

Just before Election Day, the Washington Post is super excited about all that “job growth” for October.

Regardless, […]

Pew: MSNBC’s Bias Far Worse Than Fox

Posted on November 4, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

This news is certainly no surprise to anyone on the right, but a new Pew study finds that MSNBC is far more biased than Fox News.

NPR: Romney a George Wallace ‘White Supremacist,’ GOP Women are ‘Battered’

Posted on October 31, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

Unfortunately, hate is the main selling point on the National Public Radio distributed Smiley & West radio show and last week we got a big dollop of bile spewed against Republicans in general and GOP nominee Mitt Romney in particular. The October 26 episode featured host Cornel West, a long-time radical lefty from Princeton, and […]
