I've gotten some flak for referring to last weekend's protests in Washington, D.C. and elsewhere around the country as being populated by the loony left. Of course, the critics aren't members of the loony left and don't go to the protests. I've said it before: there are honest liberals who disagree with the war in […]

The New York Times has decided that it is time for a modified, limited rowback on the Geraldo libel. The TV Watch column on Sept. 5 discussed broadcast journalists' undisguised outrage at the failings of Hurricane Katrina rescue efforts. It said reporters had helped stranded victims because no police officers or rescue workers were around, […]

I just got back from seeing "Serenity." Part of Universal's effort to generate buzz for the flick was reaching out to bloggers by offering an advance screening -- apparently they believe that we have some sway with people who read our sites. I came into the theater as a late-to-the-party fan of the TV series. […]

For the record, whenever Geraldo Rivera appears on the TV screen the channel is immediately changed (if it's live TV) or I skip forward until his visage no longer contaminates my screen (if it's TiVo'd). Having said that, the New York Times' libel of Geraldo, and its unwillingness to correct the record, is just one […]

Last week Apple CEO suggested that if record labels started charging more than $0.99 per song on his service and others, it would be indicative of pure greed. Not one to want to prove Jobs wrong, Warner Music Group CEO Edgar Bronfman Jr. fired back. �To have only one price point is not fair to […]

Yesterday Cpl. Tibor Rubin was finally awarded the Medal of Honor for his service during the Korean War. The Mudville Gazette has all the details. On a day when hate-America-firsters are spewing their venom and bile, it's good to see what real heroes look like.

If I'd have known that I might be able to get in to see "Serenity" Monday evening -- four days before it's released -- because I have so much influence and will cause all of you readers to go and see the film. I've been anxiously waiting for "Serenity" to make it into theaters ever […]

It appears as though the gray areas in talking about race have gotten so expansive that there isn't much you can say without getting branded a racist. The Union-Tribune's Ruben Navarrette wrote a column earlier this week taking John Roberts to task for using the term "amigos" in an internal White House memo during the […]

The Marxist, anti-Semitic, anti-American left is going to march on Balboa Park here in San Diego on Saturday. Go to Smash's place for details on the counterprotest.

That's what Lt. Gen. Russel Honore told a reporter at a news conference the other day. When you're in elementary school, and even through high school, teachers encourage students to ask questions by telling them, falsely, that "there's no such thing as a stupid question." While they are rarely called on it, journalists know there […]
