P. J. Gladnick on an inconvenient irony. Somewhere far, far to the south where it is summer, a group of global
warming scientists are trapped in the Antarctic ice. If you missed the
irony of that situation, it is because much of the mainstream media has
glossed over that rather inconvenient bit of hilarity. As an example
here is an Associated ... MORE

Humberto Fontova: Caveat On Nelson Mandela
Nelson Mandela's commitment to liberty. A Martian visiting earth this week, coasting TV channels and perusing papers, would have to conclude that among the items that most interest this planet’s news bureaus is the plight of former political prisoners, especially black ones. Well, many Cubans (many of them black) suffered longer and ... MORE

When Political Correctness Trumps Human Lives
Thomas Sowell on a very dangerous game. New York City police authorities are investigating a series of unprovoked physical attacks in public places on people who are Jewish, in the form of what is called "the knockout game." The way the game is played, one of a number of young blacks decides to show that he can knock down some ... MORE
Kyle Becker: The Integrity Of The Liberal Media On Display
As a reporter faces jailtime for protecting sources. Liberal media enjoy giving themselves accolades and awards for outstanding journalism — so long as the story fits the narrative. Fox News’ Jana Winter shouldn’t expect such praise or support. The New York Times and other left-wing outlets are either not reporting or are under- ... MORE
L. Brent Bozell: Only Propaganda Is 'Good Journalism'?
Why the waterfall of liberal bias keeps flowing. Why are liberals in so much denial about liberal bias in the news? Why do they think they're bending over backward to be "objective" doing that which Republicans see as partisan activism? Daniel Froomkin of the Huffington Post — formerly of The Washington Post — suggests an answer. ... MORE
Katie Kieffer: Pour Me A Vodka, Putin
Bad news for Barack. For the first time in five years, the conventional media prefers Russian President Vladimir Putin over U.S. President Barack Obama. Has Vladimir sent American journalists cases of Russian vodka? Or are they fed up with Barack? It’s amusing to imagine Putin shipping cases of Russian vodka to American journalists ... MORE

Steve Chapman: Obama And The Misery Of A Second Term
"All glory is fleeting." Everyone elected president comes into office modeling himself on some predecessor: Abraham Lincoln, Franklin Roosevelt, Ronald Reagan. But those who win re-election eventually end up wondering whether they should have emulated James K. Polk instead. Why? Because he promised to serve only one term, and he stuck ... MORE
Ken Allard: Generous Second Coat Of Benghazi Whitewash
More White House tactical air support from CNN. CNN spent an hour of prime time Tuesday night to air a special anchored by Erin Burnett,
“The Truth about Benghazi.” They claimed to have learned two vital
lessons from their supposedly extensive investigation of that tragedy:
It must never happen again, and politics trumped ... MORE
Brent Bozell: Insulating Obama From His Corrupt IRS
It helps when the media ignores the issue. President Obama is announcing for the umpteenth time he's going to "pivot" to fixing the economy — as if that's ever worked before, since it is he who broke it. That said, Obama will pivot to tiddlywinks if that's what it takes to get out from under his mountain of scandals. On the White House ... MORE
Peter Schiff: Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman Tragedy
When facts collide with preconceptions. The Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman tragedy has become one of those transcendent events that dominates the national discourse and throws light on dimly lit aspects of our society. Obviously, the case touches most closely on issues of race relations, media culture, and the ... MORE

William Tucker: Press Goes Crackers Over Fracking
Latest in the smear campaign against fracking. If you want to see how the press acts like a bunch of hysterical ninnies, just look at the way an article in Science about earthquakes and underground wastewater storage pools has been distorted into a national alarm about fracking. By the time you read this, you will have already read the headline ... MORE

Barry Farber: Put Your Money On 'Distancing'
Barack who? OK, all of you who share my shameful habit of writing history before it happens: It’s time to lay the money on your favorite square. Will all the hydra-headed horrors whip-lashing the Obama White House spend themselves out splashing against a Democratic seawall in the Senate, and the media-corps awaken in the middle of the night ...

Moral Bias At The New York Times
by Tibor R. Machan. The headline said it all: “Confusion and Staff Troubles Rife at I.R.S. Office in Ohio.” No mention of mendacity, of evil, of meanness, of vice, Nada. For liberals their own pals are never morally amiss. They may make mistakes, be confused and have troubles. But guilty of malpractice never! Only Republicans and others who ... MORE
Obama Scandals Bring MSNBC To 7-Year Low
by Dominic Patten. The scandals of the Obama administration seem to be hurting not just the White House but MSNBC as well, while Fox News Channel has just scored its second-best week of the year. After double-digit gains during last year’s presidential election, May 13-17 saw the progressive-aligned “Lean Forward” news network hit new lows ... MORE

Barry Farber: Are Media Finally Doing Their Job?
Poor Jay Carney. Do you remember how World War II started? Don’t tell me “Hitler invaded Poland.” You’ve got to do better than that. The Nazis had “Special Forces” who spoke fluent Polish. They put on Polish army uniforms, sneaked into Poland, then sneaked back into Germany and blew up a German radio station near the Polish border. Hitler ... MORE
