- Rolling Stone’s Bizarre Cheap Shot At Sarah Palin
March 28, 2011
I previously posted about the latest rash of scandalous photos coming out of Afghanistan showing U.S. military atrocities under Obama’s command, and wondering if the media would pick up on it the way they did when it was Bush’s army… Well, here’s a twist I wasn’t expecting: yes, one of the U.S. media, Rolling Stone, [...] - More Disgustingly Overt Reuters Bias
March 24, 2011
Jeffrey Goldberg, a correspondent for the Atlantic, cast a spotlight on yet another disgustingly overt example of pure bias in the mainstream media, particularly at the anti-Semitic Reuters newswire. He points to a Reuters news item which contains the following despicable sentences: Police said it was a “terrorist attack” — Israel’s term for a Palestinian [...] - Bloomberg’s “Crash Tax”
March 24, 2011While reading last month’s issue of AAA’s Car & Travel magazine, I was surprised to discover that Bloomberg (with the FDNY behind him) is now trying to push a “crash tax” on anyone involved in a car accident, with such taxes ranging from $365 up to $490, depending on the severity of the crash. The [...]
- Obama’s Abu Ghraib
March 21, 2011The latest news out of Afghanistan is going to be really interesting to follow, if only to see how the media handles it. According to the Guardian and other (so far relatively few) sources, pictures have now made their way out of Afghanistan (courtesy of Germany’s Der Spiegel) showing brutal and psychopathic activities by U.S. [...]
- Sympathy For Israel? Time To Restore “Balance”!
March 16, 2011
In the [sparse] reporting of the Palestinians’ massacre of the Fogel family, several newspapers stand out with their distorted sense of “balance”, i.e., where they feel overwhelmingly uncomfortable describing the barbarity of the Palestinians without at least taking a swipe or two at the Israelis, no matter how patently irrelevant or disgustingly disrespectful it comes [...]

NYT Bibiwashing Attempt Thwarted
I know I’ve been inactive lately (“lately” being very loosely applied here!), but I came across this and was so inspired and enthusiastic about sharing it that I had to find my way back to my blog if only to share this. Apparently, the NY Times—in its warped sense of “balance”—figured it would balance... »
NY Times: All The News That’s Fit To Twist
In light of some recent (although hardly surprising) reporting by the NY Times, my father had these particularly insightful comments to make, ending with a pair of questions that I challenge any honest person to answer: According to the “paper of record”, Israel’s killing of terrorists responsible for killing Israeli civilians (including children) ignited... »
Civil Libertarian Hypocrites
Marilyn Penn, blogging at Political Mavens, had this great piece last week: When it comes to provocateurs who are anti-American, the bastions of liberalism march in lockstep to defend whatever freedom is at stake. Refusing to say the pledge of allegiance? Freedom of speech. Nazi march through a community of survivors? Same and warum nicht?... »
Barack Jintao
The Weekly Standard’s “The Scrapbook”, always a great source for a cynical laugh or two, had this to say about Obama’s Sinophilia: Buried at the end of an otherwise milquetoast New York Times article (“Obama Seeks a Course of Pragmatism in the Middle East,” which THE SCRAPBOOK supposes is a generous interpretation of the... »

Obama Christ
If anyone has any doubt as to what the New York Times thinks of Obama, one needs to look no further than this devoutly doctored image that graces their web site: »
The New York Times: Just the Facts?
New York Times coverage often supports the Palestinian narrative without placing events in greater context. Headlines, eyewitness accounts, and images depicted the Gaza conflict as Israeli aggression against Palestinian civilians. Settlements are misrepresented by having images of tiny outposts accompany articles about settlements. Issues such as Palestinian incitement are downplayed or ignored. »
NY Times Can’t Keep Its Story Straight
Seventeenth century English politician Algernon Sydney said that “liars need to have good memories.” Well, the folks at the New York Times should learn a lesson from that because they spend so much time spinning (and outright lying), that they sometimes lose track of their “facts” in the stories they spin. James Taranto of the... »
