It shouldn't come as any surprise that The New York Times editorial page writers use language in such a way that it becomes meaningless. Case in point is this editorial in last week's paper on a proposed cloning ban at the U.N. Seeing as how it is the U.N., any measure would be mainly meaningless […]
CBS curmudgeon Andy Rooney echoes what all of CBS News' critics have been saying ever since Dan Rather's bogus Bush National Guard documents story ran. "I am very critical of some of the people at CBS who make it apparent what their political leanings are," Rooney said. "That's what happened to this thing of Dan […]
Who were the biggest winners last night? ABC and the NFL. With a hockey game breaking out at the Pacers/Pistons game, the dropped towel from Monday Night Football will be completely forgotten.

On Wednesday night, CBS News broke into "CSI: N.Y." to report the death of Palestinian terrorist Yasser Arafat -- angering viewers who didn't get to see the show's exciting conculsion! With just a few minutes to go before the 11 p.m. local newscast, this was a bad call. A crawl along the bottom of the […]
I'm glad that the verdict in the Scott Peterson case came in today -- guilty -- but not because I've been one of those people breathlessly following the case. This will quash the fawning coverage of Yasser Arafat's burial.
I'm finally getting around to watching my news shows and was just struck, once again, by Margaret Carlson's incredible arrogance. First, she is still peddling that nonsense that George W.
