By Brent Bozell ~ The legendary British prime minister Margaret Thatcher has died, and the national media tried to pay their respects, not only for breaking Britain’s “glass ceiling” with a “bruising” political style, but for transforming Britain and helping wind down the Cold War. Still, Thatcher was a conservative and one of Ronald Reagan’s […]
By Tom Blumer ~ St. Louis Post-Dispatch columnist Bill McClellan (pictured) is mighty proud of himself this week. Today, he wrote that the negative response to a column he wrote on Wednesday (“One last call to service – end military funeral honors”) is “pig heaven for an attention-craving columnist.” The porcine parallel McClellan made seems […]

By Noel Sheppard ~ In the wake of President Obama calling Georgetown University law student and women’s rights activist Sandra Fluke to discuss Rush Limbaugh’s remarks, Bristol Palin, the daughter of the former Alaska governor, posted a question to the current White House resident Sunday. “Mr. President, When Should I Expect Your Call?“ Dear President […]
By Noel Sheppard ~ Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich had some harsh words Friday for ABC and its new show GCB. As The Note reported, the former Speaker told supporters at a campaign event in Gulfport, Mississippi, “Take the exact name, drop out ‘Christian’ and put in ‘Muslim,’ and ask yourself is there any network that […]
By Rusty Weiss ~ And it gets much worse from there… I almost hate to draw attention to this incredibly sad example of the intolerant left over at Rolling Stone, but quite frankly, Andrew Breitbart probably would have eaten this up, and tweeted it back out. Matt Taibi, who delusionally lists himself among the ranks […]

By Tim Graham National Public Radio is a playground for all the factions of the liberal base, including the atheists. That was clear on Friday with the passing of atheist author Christopher Hitchens. NPR didn’t shrink from noticing that Hitchens viciously bashed the globally beloved nun Mother Teresa of Calcutta. They even reran a quote […]
By Brent Bozell In advance of Tinseltown’s parade of Christmas insensitivities – they’ve already unloaded the marijuana movie “A Very Harold and Kumar 3-D Christmas” – let us stipulate that it’s not just seasonal. The manufacturers of pop culture thrive on offending every traditional value. Start with Pamela Anderson, the ridiculously surgically enhanced former Playboy […]
By Matt Hadro In an interview with a gay Chicago newspaper, CNN’s openly-gay African-American anchor Don Lemon warned that the same Bible that was used to “keep us as slaves” is now a weapon against gay people. “We have, in many ways, been a victim of the Scriptures and theology that have been used to […]
By Alan Caruba The television coverage of the British Parliament’s inquiry of the Murdoch’s, father and son, Rupert and James, was wall-to-wall on every news channel including Fox News, part of the Murdoch media empire. As an American, I found myself straining to understand what many of the MPs were saying as their accent often […]
By Nancy Morgan The media is in a frenzy and elite pundits are all atwitter. Why? Because Sarah Palin refuses to let them define her. As Palin puts it, “I don’t owe the media anything.” The political and media elites on both left and right are rising up in anger at former Governor Sarah Palin. […]
By Lachlan Markay A software upgrade at Facebook has some conservative groups worried that their hard-earned followings might be rendered useless. The upgrade will “archive” all existing Facebook groups, thereby revoking administrators’ access to member lists, unless they receive an exemption from Facebook (and the accompanying software). The company has not revealed how groups are […]
By Wendy Davis - The Daily Online Examiner Copyright enforcement outfit Righthaven hasn’t had much luck lately. First, the company got into a public fight with a federal judge in Colorado. Righthaven last week filed papers withdrawing its poorly thought-out lawsuit against the autistic 20-year-old blogger Brian Hill, but added some gratuitous comments berating Hill […]
By Noel Sheppard As NewsBusters reported Wednesday, the National Organization for Women’s weak response to Bill Maher referring to Sarah Palin as a highly derogatory term for a woman’s vagina in no way discouraged the “Real Time” host or the television network he represents from making these sexist attacks. Proving this point, Maher called Palin […]
By Noel Sheppard While Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) fights for her life in a Tucson, Arizona, hospital, liberal media members continue to point fingers of blame for Saturday’s tragic shooting spree at prominent conservatives such as Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, and Glenn Beck.

By Lachlan Markay Media mogul Ted Turner, who founded cable networks CNN and TBS, wants a global child-bearing “cap and trade” system to combat climate change. He has thought up a bizarre take on China’s one-child policy: set a strict one-child limit, and let poor people sell credits for children they don’t have! At the […]
By Alan Caruba In a long career as a journalist, full time and freelance, I have sometimes said that I knew something was seriously wrong with The New York Times when I began to see my byline show up on stories that appeared briefly. It’s been decades since I have held The Times in my […]
By Jim Kouri, CPP.

By Noel Sheppard There are times when one has to think the Manhattan building that is the home of the New York Times doesn’t have any windows, doesn’t have any television sets, and doesn’t have any doors that allow employees to venture out and actually see what’s happening in America beyond the walls of 620 […]
By Andrew Bolt President Barack Obama mercilessly hyped the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico: Already, this oil spill is the worst environmental disaster America has ever faced.
