30,000 More Troops—With One Hand Tied Behind their Backs?

30,000 More Troops—With One Hand Tied Behind their Backs?

The consensus, Left and Right, seems to be that President Obama’s speech was less than stirring.  On Fox News’s excellent news hour, Special Report with Bret Baier, Charles Krauthammer paraphrased Winston Churchill’s famed battle cry to sum it up this way
“We will fight them in air, we’ll fight them on the beaches, we’ll fight them [...]

The Media’s Silent Scandal

The Media’s Silent Scandal

From my new article at Right Bias:

If a scandal isn’t reported by the media, does that mean it never happened?
CNN chimed in, reporting their own shocking headlines: Sea Level Rise Could Cost Port Cities $28 [...]

The Spin Stops Where, Exactly? O’Reilly Pitches Soft Balls to Huckabee

The Spin Stops Where, Exactly? O’Reilly Pitches Soft Balls to Huckabee

On Monday’s O’Reilly Factor, Mike Huckabee made his first television appearance since serial felon Maurice Clemmons (allegedly) murdered four police officers on Sunday morning. Since the murders, the media have lambasted Fox News analyst and former Arkansas governor Huckabee for having commuted Clemmons’ life sentence back in 2000. I had been curious as [...]

No, Dana Perino Hasn’t Forgotten September 11

No, Dana Perino Hasn’t Forgotten September 11

This Thanksgiving, I’m thankful for the Left’s utter inability to manufacture a convincing scandal.  The latest is former White House Press Secretary Dana Perino’s latest appearance on Hannity, where she said:
You know, they want to do all of their investigations, I don’t know all of their thinking that goes into it. But we did not [...]

Media Matters accepts “senior moment” excuse from ACORN’s Rathke

Here’s the “gotcha” Media Matters is highlighting on its web site today: “Latest fact-check fail: Fox News runs with claim that White House official worked for ACORN”:
After Matthew Vadum wrote in The American Spectator that “[e]vidence shows that years before he joined the Obama administration,” White House political affairs director Patrick Gaspard [who now holds [...]

Bias on FOX News

Bias on FOX News

FOX media commentator Bernie Goldberg’s weekly appearance on the O’Reilly Factor turned into a shouting match about whether certain unnamed talking heads on FOX News were spinning their biased views as facts.   This was in response to O’Reilly’s question as to why FOX is under constant attack by the “mainstream” media.
After conceding that FOX’s conservative views [...]

Media Matters: where scare quotes magically transform facts into “smears”

Media Matters: where scare quotes magically transform facts into “smears”

 
One of the left’s favorite (and lamest) rhetorical tricks is to simply reprint one of their opponent’s statements, verbatim, and without comment. You see, the statement’s idiocy and offensiveness is self-evident, and will surely shock the conscience of any “right thinking” reader. No rebuttal required.
