At Pajamas Media today Mary Grabar, a thoughtful writer and an acquaintance, has an effective piece in response to a recent tragic death which has reopened an important issue that’s not discussed nearly enough:
A truly sad story about a 23-year-old Panama City man dying while being subdued by Bay County sheriff’s deputies has reawakened the [...]

I rarely find sarcasm reassuring.
So what to make of a speech given last Monday, by the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) new chief diversity officer? Mark Lloyd told that meeting of the Media Access Project (MAP):
I am not a Czar appointed by President Obama. I am not at the FCC to restore the Fairness Doctrine through [...]

The more I think about Media Matters taking credit for the “firing” of Lou Dobbs, the stupider the situation gets.
Even if Media Matters is responsible for Dobbs’ departure (which I doubt), how pathetic and ineffectual does that make them look?
The George Soros Steno Pool are always the first to criticize Glenn Beck for supposedly trying [...]

Eric Burns, the president of Media Matters, tells the New York Observer that the George Soros Steno Pool has “had some incredible successes this year.”
Acknowledging that “it’s been a difficult fund-raising environment,” Burns tells the Observer that Media Matters “raised roughly $10 million in 2009. The haul was less than the organization’s peak numbers in [...]

Show biz lore holds that you have to be really smart to play the dumb blond, and that Jayne Mansfield and Judy Holliday actually had Mensa-level I.Qs.
So maybe Media Matters is now lifting tactics from The Girl Can’t Help It instead of Rules for Radicals. But is “playing dumb” really the, er, smartest strategy a [...]

I wish I could take credit for that line, but it was the fellow behind the now-defunct blog Beautiful Atrocities.

Some claims are too petty even for Media Matters to make on the merits alone. Unfortunately, that’s not to say they have the good sense to abandon such attacks—no, they just need a little extra padding, like dredging up old, unrelated controversies to make them seem more significant.
Such is the sorry state of their latest [...]

Sorry. Having an ’80s flashback there, thanks to the George Soros Steno Pool, otherwise known as Media Matters.
It’s a shame, really. Just yesterday, Media Matters and I had achieved a rapprochement of sorts, founded upon our [...]
MSNBC’s Oddball Hardball host Chris Matthews endures plenty of criticism here at NewsReal — and why not?
When he’s not trading on his flimsy cradle Catholicism to pontificate (inaccurately) on matters religious, Matthews veers between making flimsy accusations of “racism” and spouting historical inaccuracies.
But you know it’s bad when even the George Soros Steno Pool, otherwise [...]
