Media Caught Peddling Left-Wing Narrative in Place of News

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

There are several things in common that recent stories about a San Diego City Councilman who is running for Mayor have and truth doesn’t seem to be one of them. In fact, these stories are so similar that one is tempted to think that those columnists and “reporters” that wrote these stories had a bit […]

 

When You Disagree With Leftists, They Simply Dehumanize You

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The hatemongers of the Democrat Party and their pals on the far left like to pretend that it is the right that dehumanizes its foes, but the truth is no one dehumanizes enemies better than the left does. Case in point, the left thinks if you are a woman that doesn’t support convenience infanticide, then […]

 

Lefty Group Calling for Disclosure of Conservative Donors has Felon as Advisor

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Recently the Washington Post had a story about a coalition of left-wing advocacy groups calling for their counterparts on the conservative side to reveal all their donors even though the law does not require it. The Post feels the crusade is a bit odd since most of the lefty groups doing the complaining also don’t […]

 

Comparison: Politico Lauds ‘Forceful’ Gov’t Obamacare Argument, Fox Notes it was Laughed At

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The first arguments by the government in support of the already wildly over budget Obamacare law were heard at the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday and there is an interesting lesson in media bias that can be seen in the reporting of the day’s presentation. The difference between how the government’s opening arguments was reported […]

 

MSNBC’s Karen Finney Unleashes Her Inner Race Baiter

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I suppose we should thank MSNBC contributor and Democrat Strategist Karen Finney for her illogical, uninformed, hate-filled, lie-laden rant on MSNBC on March 23. As prosaic and free of any intelligent content it is, her attack on Rush Limbaugh and any other Republican that popped into her pretty little head at the time served as […]

 

AP Asks Cheney’s Doctors if They Stopped Beating Their Wives Yet

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Like Jerry Seinfeld, the Associated Press did a masterful job of making a story out of nothing this weekend after news broke that former Vice President Dick Cheney was the recipient of a heart transplant. In fact, APs first paragraph is one of those masterful bits of psychological manipulation along the lines of the old […]

 

In Debunking Myths About Obamacare, Washington Post Forgets To Debunk Them

Posted on by William Teach

They’re just “challenging everything you know”, and essentially proving you, meaning those who understand Obamacare, rather than simply being cheerleaders for a bill you didn’t read, 100% correct (WP) 1. The “individual mandate” forces everyone to buy health insurance. The law states that, beginning in 2014, individuals must ensure that they and their dependents are […]

What Now Passes as Today’s “News”

Posted on by Michael Fell

Monday March 12, 2012…Today’s “news” begins with the headline: The Most Aired Political Campaign Ads. A sub-headline reads: Obama’s “Unprecedented” commercial was shown 6,190 times before Super Tuesday. At first, by mentioning campaign ads from multiple candidacies, this article flirts with the idea of integrity. A flirtation which disappointingly dissolves in the face of the […]

False Fronts: Obama Still Pretending Fluke is an Innocent Kid

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

If you want to see how the left skews the narrative using untrue claims and false imagery to sell a message, you don’t need any other example than President Obama’s recent press conference where he continued to perpetrate the myth that Sandra Flake is somehow an innocent coed, a kid barely out of high school, […]

WARNING: If You Use Carbonite Computer Backup Service, Cancel it NOW

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

There is accidental “hypocrisy,” where you didn’t actually realize that you have committed the logic/moral sin, and then there is rank hypocrisy, that time when you do two things that are totally opposite each other yet you defend both.

Slut-Gate: Obama’s Orchestrated, Left-Wing Campaign Plan

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

You know the story by now, right? Republicans run the he-man women haters club. As the media has it the story goes like this: poor, unassuming, innocent Georgetown coed, accidentally ends up in front of Congress pleading for “reproductive rights.” Evil mean conservatives led by scalawag Rush Limbaugh unfairly call her a slut and announce […]

 

Rush Limbaugh Is Not The Problem

Posted on by Michael Fell

This is not a defense of Rush Limbaugh. Rush can take care of himself. This is about a much bigger problem within a much bigger picture. Have you seen the latest hit piece on Yahoo’s Destination 2012 web-site by David Crary of the Associated Press? Not surprisingly, this latest salvo is aimed directly at Rush […]

 

Leftist’s Hate on Full Display Over Breitbart’s Passing

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It is sad that to be a left-winger is to be a hatemonger, but the death of conservative media activist Andrew Breitbart has certainly brought out those true colors of the left. The giddiness displayed and cheering indulged by America’s leftists over the fact that Mr. Breitbart died late Wednesday night has been shrill, disgusting, […]

 

RIP, Andrew Breibart

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The country has lost a leader. Early this morning I was woken by texts, phones calls, and Facebook IMs to the devastating news that conservative activist Andrew Breitbart passed away, late last night. He was only 43. Andrew was a force of nature, for sure. He was everywhere at once, attended every conservative gathering of […]

 

“progressive” Reporting on Scott Walker’s Recall Election

Posted on by Michael Fell

There’s so much empty, hateful “progressive” rhetoric in this “article” written by David Chalian it’s truly painful. Scott Walker, Wisconsin governor, braces for recall election, proclaims controversial law is working http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/scott-walker-wisconsin-governor-braces-recall-election-proclaims-120437772.html First Chalian begins his “article” with an openly biased headline (since once must not miss opportunities to repeat the “progressive”–the law is “controversial”–narrative) that […]

 

Chop Licking: How Obama Uses Falsehoods to Advance His Policies

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Last week we all got a great lesson in how the left promotes a lie to make Republicans the enemy and this time President Obama was a chief participant.

Fired ESPN Editor Claims no Racial Slam Meant with ‘Chink in Armor’ Headline

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The headline written by ESPN editor Anthony Federico about Asian-American basketball star Jeremy Lin lasted only about a half hour before ESPN changed it but the fallout is lasting a bit longer for editor Federico.
