Top Ten most Left-Biased American Journalists – #6: Rick Sanchez, CNN

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Continuing with our top ten most left-biased journalists working in America today, at number six we feature the redoubtable… or is it just doubtable… Rick Sanchez of CNN. Let’s face it, no list of Old Media left-wingers could be complete without the Ricker appearing on it somewhere! Any casual observer would conclude that Sanchez has […]

 

Through a Gimlet Eye: Studying the Washington Post Kremlinologist-Style

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

Let’s employ a little Cold War-style Kremlinology to try and ascertain the health of the Washington Post. Or even a little Nixonology — a modern-day equivalent of Woodward and Bernstein (or at least how they were presented to the public in the form of Redford and Hoffman) would have lots of fun tying together all of the strange stories that have circulated recently from the former home of Ben Bradlee and Katharine Graham:

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

As we continue our Summer series of the most left-biased journalists working in the Old Media today it’s time for number seven on the list.

Top Ten most Left-Biased American Journalists – #8: Christiane Amanpour CNN

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

As we continue with America’s most left-biased, working journalist list we feature a journo that takes herself quite seriously as a non-opinion styled journalist. CNN’s Christiane Amanpour really does think that no one can tell that she is a true-blue left-winger. Sadly, there is that all too human penchant of fooling oneself as much as […]

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

As we continue our list of the top ten most left-biased journalists working in America today (See part one here), we have to nominate Liz Sidoti of the Associated Press for spot number nine on the countdown.

Over the next ten days we will present to you America’s top ten journalists that are most biased to the left.

Even Hillary Supporters Shocked at Obama Tactics

Posted on by Dave Blount

Politics makes for strange bedfellows, all right. In light of appalling revelations of the fraud and intimidation Obamunists used to steal the Democrat nomination from Hillary, her own supporters — left high and dry by a mainstream media that is for all intents and purposes part of the Obama machine — are appealing to patriots […]

 

Fisking the Chgo Sun-Times Anti-2nd Amendment Article

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Sun-Times is Chicago’s left-wing, left-wing paper while the Chicago Tribune is but the city’s left-wing paper and pursuant to its agenda, the Sun-Times recently made to shore up support for Mayor “King” Daley’s attempt to eliminate the Second Amendment for his Chicago subjects with its headlined “More guns in city not a good thing.” […]

 

Video: I Am A Tired American

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Well, we just celebrated Independence Day, a day we rejoiced at the things we love about America. But, let’s face it, there are things going on in America today NOT to love. Here is a video to point out those things we are all “tired of.” Forgive me if I posted this here before. I […]

 

New Silicon Graffiti Video: ‘The Cold Civil War’

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

In 2007, author William Gibson wrote the phrase the “Cold Civil War” for one of his science fiction novels. That led blogger April Gavaza, also known as the “Hyacinth Girl,” as well as Mark Steyn to pick up on the concept a year later. But of course, as General McChrystal’s disastrous interview with Rolling Stone and his subsequent dismissal illustrates, the media isn’t just where wars are fought domestically, as we discuss in the latest edition of our Silicon Graffiti video blog

 

Politico Misleads on NJ Gov. Chiristie’s Immigration Position

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This morning Ben Smith of Politico posted a story that essentially mislead readers about what newfound conservative hero Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey thought about immigration. Smith’s article spun Christie into an “amnesty” supporter when it doesn’t seem he is. One has to wonder why Smith did this? Among many other issues, in the […]

 

Wash. Post Cries: White ‘Hate’ Groups Increasing! Says Who?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It’s time once again for some more left-wing hand wringing over the supposed rise of “white militias” in the era of Obama. This time it is the blather of Metro Columnist Courtland Milloy claiming that white-based hate groups have increased substantially because we have a black president. Milloy also rails about the “racial double standard” […]

 

Fox40 Covers Sarah Palin at Cal State, Forgets ‘All Mics are Hot’ Rule

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

If there’s a theme that ties this week’s events together, it’s to assume that all mics are hot, all emails risk becoming public, and all information captured by journalists no matter how off the record will eventually escape, whether your last name is McChrystal or Weigel, or you’re covering a Sarah Palin speech for a local Fox affiliate

 

Census Workers Sensing Danger?

Posted on by Alexa Shrugged

I in no way condone acts of violence or threats of violence toward Census workers, or anyone else, but this article over the weekend really got to me. An unexpected result for some census takers: the wrath of irate Americans Since they began making follow-up house calls in early May, census takers have encountered vitriol, […]

 

Atlanta Journal Columnist Tucker Says USA is ‘The Enemy’

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Columnist Cynthia Tucker of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, a 2007 Pulitzer Prize winner, has found the enemy and he is us. During a recent episode of the Chris Matthews show, Tucker decided that because we are “addicted to petroleum” we are our own enemy just as much as communism was our enemy during the Cold War. […]

 

Video: ‘The Three Terrors’ Skewers Palestinian Supporters

The folks at the Hebrew language opinion and news site Latma have done it again. A new effort revealing the hypocrisy of the Palestinians and their slavish supporters across the world are skewered in yet another parody video.

Those Poor Muslims Forced to Sell Pork Rinds in Chicago

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

The Chicago Tribune has a long lament of an article bellyaching about how so many wonderful and devout Muslim grocery store owners in Chicago are somehow forced to sell liquor, lottery tickets and pork products in their stores. The article worries over their Muslim souls for having to violate their un-American Shariah codes. Naturally, a […]

Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Michelle Malkin, Charles Krauthammer, Mike Adams, George Will, Jonah Goldberg, Victor Davis Hanson : — they’re all at Townhall, along with a lot […]

 

Chris Matthews’ “Rise of The New Right”: Delusional Neo-Communist Propaganda

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Latest NewsReal Post: Last night, MSNBC aired a Chris Matthews special, labeled a documentary, called The Rise of the New Right. I decided to take a quick break from my radical right wing extremist acts like bitterly clinging to my guns and my Bible, whilst fiendishly drawing Hitler moustaches on Obama photos, to watch it.

AP Bias: Name That Party Blasts Repubs, Leaves Dems Unnamed in Stories

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

One of the many ways that the Associated Press lends its support to Democrats and leftists in its political reporting is often evident in its stories on political scandals. The most common assist the AP gives to Democrats is to somehow forget to mention that a politician in the news because of criminal activity or […]

 

Princess Leia Found Her Darth Vader: It’s You and Me

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Well, she’s a former alcoholic, drug addict, washed up actor, shock therapy patient (no, really) and one-time princess to the universe, but now Carrie “Princess Leia” Fisher can add one more calumny to her long list of off-kilter, personality deficits: she’s a “teabagger” hater. So, she’s got that going for her, which is nice. Hawking […]
