I used to think the subtitle of this series should be “We watch Olbermann so you don’t have to,” except, as the numbers demonstrate, you’re not going to watch him no matter what we do. Let me go a step further and postulate that if you eliminated all the people like me who trawl through [...]
In Human Events this morning, I discuss four recent Islamic supremacist assaults on the freedom of speech in the United States: Four incidents recently showed anew how keenly Islamic supremacists want to shut down the freedom of speech–and how eager many Americans are to accommodate them. The most notorious incident…
Comedy Central, as we by now are well familiar, censored images and references to Muhammad in the latest episode of South Park. One would think that in our free society, our leaders, media and citizens would collectively stand together and defend South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Unfortunately, the situation is the reverse; the L.A. Times’ [...]
Guess who’s publicly submitting to Sharia Law?
At the Daily Beast, John Avlon has a strong round-up of reactions to Comedy Central’s decision to censor images and references to Muhammad in the latest episode of South Park, including Islam-reform advocates Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Irshad Manji, and South Park Conservatives author Brian Anderson. They reinforce the same messages that NewsReal has been [...]
Diana West’s column this week calls out Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly’s stance on the squelching of South Park’s satirical allusions to Muhammad, in response to graphic Muslim death threats. The threats, complete with an image of Theo Van Gogh laying dead on a Dutch street, were directed at South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt [...]

In a post that ran Wednesday, I reported on the death threats targeted at the show’s creators. It appears that the extremist website (Revolution Muslim) harboring the threatening video has been removed. Watch a video here [...]
The pugnacious producer of Fox News’ “O’Reilly Factor” paid a visit to our favorite global warming alarmist, Al Gore. I have to admit, although I like Bill O’Reilly, I hate the Jesse Watters ambush segments. Still, watching Watters take a bite out of the Goracle — asking him if he was embarrassed by “Climategate” and [...]
Conventional wisdom holds that the Tea Party movement must be racist—after all, as Keith Olbermann has asked, “where are the people of color” at their rallies? Somehow, Sean Hannity managed to find one last night: Erik Rush, the columnist who first broke the story of Barack Obama’s old pal, Rev. Jeremiah Wright:
Wright-gate is familiar ground [...]
“I’m so relieved to be an elite” –tweet from Roger Ebert
Most public figures have done or said something they wish they could take back. When it comes to public intellectuals and film critics specifically, they generally pride themselves on their ability to analyze what they see. Therefore, their responses to culture should be very measured [...]
