Two questions

Why did he think that he wouldn't be caught? Why the silence from the mainstream media's watchdogs?

Temperature in hell drops

One of the signs that the apocalypse is on us occurred today when New York Times columnist Paul Krugman acknowledged error. Despite what I wrote earlier, early Wednesday morning I sent an e-mail off to the Times public editor Byron Calame. My point in sending it was merely to get Krugman to acknowledge his error […]

Idiots in the legislature

Thankfully, this time it is Hawaii and not California. Seriously, how many economics classes do you have to fail in order to think that price controls actually work? This is the sort of thing that you'd think a maybe a professional economist writing for The New York Times would want to address, but he's got […]

Journalistic malpractice

New York Times reporter Elisabeth Bumiller has been doing hard work following President Bush from place to place on his monthlong "vacation." I haven't spent a whole lot of time analyzing the Times' news coverage. During the 2004 election I discovered just how tainted the paper's hard news coverage had been tainted by liberal ideology […]

A plan requiring automakers to boost fuel economy standards for some sport utility vehicles, minivans and pickup trucks could eventually […]

Adding insult to injury

For those of you who have been closely following the Kelo case (where the Supreme Court eviscerated private property rights), I'm sure this will come as no surprise. For everyone else, this is outrageous. In 2000, it condemned 15 homes so a developer could build offices, a hotel and convention center. Susette Kelo and her […]

Speaking of nonsense

I find the timing of this statement by CNN president Jonathan Klein to be poorly timed. CNN President Jonathan Klein implies ratings news leader FOXNEWS is mired in coverage of "meaningless nonsense," claiming: "Fourteen Americans dead, and they have Natalee Holloway on," Klein says. "And they're supposedly America's news channel." "It's easy and it's brainless," […]
