When I have a few spare minutes at work, I'll often scan the wire feed coming into the newsroom. This is a raw feed that you really can't access anywhere on the Web. As I was checking out the op-ed wire coming in last evening, I noticed today's editorials from The New York Times had […]

When word came earlier this week that Columbia University professor Mark von Hagen had completed his report on Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Walter Duranty with the suggestion that the prize be revoked. For those unfamiliar with him, Duranty parroted Soviet President Josef Stalin's propoganda and covered up a forced famine in the Ukraine that led to […]

GOP Rep. Deborah Pryce was quoted on Fox News' Special Report with Brit Hume making the following statement while visiting a hospital in Iraq yesterday. The effects of the embargo are widespread. There are fewer nurses trained, there are fewer doctors trained, and the medical equipment shortages obviously a problem in his eyes. So we […]

There was little mention of it on the news last night and only relatively short and buried articles in major newspapers on yesterday's confirmation hearing for D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals nominee Janice Rogers Brown. Brown is a liberal Democrat's worst nightmare: a conservative African-American woman. As usual, the best source of information on the […]

It probably wouldn't surprise liberal Democrats if the Republican National Committee scheduled a fundraising tour of Fox News studios. After all, Fox News is obviously a right-wing, pro-GOP network. Being professional journalists, Fox officials would never allow this to happen, but the very idea that Fox is somehow on the GOP's side and would even […]

I'm not a devoted watcher of CNN's Crossfire (or as Henry Hanks often refers to it as: "Colossalfailure"), but right now they have on Hussein Ibish and Jerry Falwell -- talking about "religious extremism." Of course, the religion in question isn't the same one that sends kids into pizzarias to blow themselves and others up. […]

Don Luskin digs up some dirt on New York Times columnist Paul Krugman. It appears as though Krugman's Tuesday column isn't the first time he's defended or excused anti-Semitic comments from Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad. On a related note: Last Friday, Paul Krugman accused Don Luskin of "stalking" him. Krugman's getting a little paranoid, […]

The Wall Street Journal's Claudia Rosett has an excellent article previewing a report due out today from the U.S. Committee for Human Rights in North Korea. For those "sensitive" internationalists who suggest we only make Kim Jong Il meaner when we refer to his totalitarian regime as "evil," the report promises to be the equivalent […]

The Viking Pundit spied another example of Democrats going the extra mile (lying) to justify their victim status.

New York Times columnist Paul Krugman's latest screed takes aim at Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad's outrageous comments at a summit meeting of Islamic states. But Mahathir's comments are only a symptom -- the cause is (surprise!) George W. Bush. Mahathir claimed that the "Jews rule the world by proxy" and that they must refocus […]
