Usually it’s politicians using push polls to make things look better than they are. In some instances, less trustworthy media do push polling in an effort to make their side think things are better than they really are. $1 magazine, known to many as Newsweek has a poll out today that has apparently been shipped […]

This was posted about a week and a half ago over at the Heritage Foundation’s blog. Read it and weep. You’d think that the Obama administration might ask itself what it’s doing wrong, rather than simply saying: They understand, it’s Bush’s fault.

David Zucker zings Sen. Barbara Boxer, with bonus cameo by the sane Howard brother.

Speaking truth to power? Holding people accountable? The Fourth Estate? Watchdogs? Bolshevik Storytelling is what that is. The overwhelming majority of American journalists today are pussies who take pride in the fact that they’re somehow better than their readers and think they’re displaying bravery when they’re merely enforcing a liberal orthodoxy.

Over my years in newspapers I made a note of what it took people to get fired because far too often incompetence wasn’t one of them. What did get people fired?

First, we have the Democratic Senate candidate from South Carolina, Alvin Greene. The only thing funnier than O’Donnell’s ridiculous questions are Greene’s ridiculous answers. You want some evidence the media leans left? Greene has received just a fraction of the attention for his wackiness that Christine O’Donnell has.   Last week there was a big hubbub […]

A couple of interesting global warming tidbits from this past week. First, Hal Lewis of UC Santa Barbara has resigned from the American Physical Society. Why? When I first joined the American Physical Society sixty-seven years ago it was much smaller, much gentler, and as yet uncorrupted by the money flood (a threat against which […]

Politifact likes to pat itself on the back for being non-partisan. It’s a crock. They’re little different than any major newspaper newsroom – they’re overwhelmingly liberal. James Taranto over at The Wall Street Journal points out a little bit of hypocrisy. "It's unfair to call the DeKalb school board corrupt. School employees, not board members, […]
