Snark of the day

From Mona Charon comes an appropriate response to the news that former Bush 43 spokesman Scott McClellan is voting for Obama. "By this act he has simultaneously raised the mean IQ of both parties."

The case for diversity

Over at National Review's "The Corner," Jonah Goldberg makes a succinct case for ideological diversity in newsrooms. The post was prompted by CNN's Drew Griffin's misquoting of a National Review article by Byron York that I mentioned here. Before Byron's post closes the issue for all time, I'd just like to make a quick point. […]

It's not always in how they cover it

Media bias is not always in how newspapers or the major TV networks cover an issue. Sometimes it is the choice whether or not to cover a story in the first place. The latest case in point is Rep. Tim Mahoney (D-Fla.). Mahoney replaced disgraced GOP congressman Mark Foley who had sent inappropriate text messages […]

Buying the election

Sen. Barack Obama's campaign raised $150 million last month. By the time the last check clears and the campaign goes into slumber mode until the next election (should he win), Obama will have spent more money than George W. Bush and John Kerry spent in 2004 combined. How this is supposed to "save" public financing […]

Which came first?

The Pew Project for Excellence in Journalism released its latest report on media coverage of the presidential campaign and its results should come as no surprise to anyone who's been conscious the past one and a half months. The media coverage of the race for president has not so much cast Barack Obama in a […]

NBC, MSNBC lie

I posted earlier today on Sen. Joe Biden's comments that Barack Obama would face a manufactured crisis and screw it up. NBC and MSNBC have decided to report on the incident -- and they're using a completely different statement by Biden. They're juxtaposing a line Biden said at some other time about Obama having "steel […]

Reading comprehension

CNN's Drew Griffin was interviewing Sarah Palin today -- yes, Palin's doing interviews (in fact, more interviews than any of the other three candidates) -- when he decided to ask this question: CNN: Yeah. Governor, you've been mocked in the press. The press has been pretty hard on you, the Democrats have been pretty hard […]

Unclear on the concept

After last week's "Joe the Plumber" debate, some McCain-Palin supporters dressed up as plumbers, complete wiith plungers, and held up signs that said "I am Joe the Plumber." The crack CBS fact-checking team determined this to be false. At least two of the members aren't quite as similar to the newly famous Joe Wurzelbacher as […]

Karl Rove's mind control

Sen. Joe "Six term" Biden was talking at a fund-raising event in Seattle last weekend when the evil Karl Rove used his powerful mind control ray to get Biden to predict doom and gloom -- if he and Barack Obama are elected. "Mark my words," the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of […]

It's getting cold

Last summer the global warming alarmists were predicting an ice-free arctic. One environmental activist vowed to kayak to the north pole to highlight the dangerous global warming. Well, the arctic didn't become ice-free and that poor kayaker had to turn back. Anthony Watts has been watching the numbers, and after a record-low sea ice coverage […]
