More of This Please!
(I’m hoping to find more instances of the traditional media looking skeptically at the various wingnut outlets to post occasionally here.) The LAT provides a useful summary and deconstruction of the latest in wingnut talking points disseminated since the election: In a time when the nation calls out for cool leadership and rational discussion, Limbaugh […]
Pulling Back the Curtain
Going with our recent media criticism theme, this is really intriguing: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHKzS5Zl6mY[/youtube] So Shep Smith calls out Ralph Nader, goes on Billo and refuses to participate in the echo chamber, and here slaps back the “media bias” whine. What’s going on here? In Obama’s press conference a week or so back he did not call […]
More of This Please!
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yAyQV8gOjo[/youtube] More data from Brad Delong on this subject. Paul Krugman takes down a wingnut talking point and does it pretty decisively. And this clip makes the case for why more liberal experts need to be on these shows, instead of the weak tea of including a few journalists on a panel who are supposed […]
Yet They Publish Them Anyway

While Moyers is a skilled and erudite interviewer across a wide range of topics, he really seems at his best when discussing religion and theology. (If you haven’t seen Moyers interviewing […]
The problem with our “liberal” MSM
here is a great example of what is wrong with our “liberal” MSM. We have a reporter and I use the term loosely, Howard Kurtz that is whining away about how hillary Clinton doesn’t let or have the press on her bus. She is limiting access to these poor guys therefor making it that much […]
Patriot Day: Global Warming is Good For You
So I’ve been hearing this buzzing around the interwebs about the world getting hotter or some such thing. I think some people are just too “in love” with the cold. Let’s face it, in the winter it gets cold. Who needs that? How cool will it be to go to the beach in January and […]
More liberal media bias
Here is more proof that the right is right when it comes to liberal bias. I honestly am beginning to think there really is a liberal media bias. You just can’t argue with these facts. Sixty percent of the nation’s daily newspapers print more conservative syndicated columnists every week than progressive syndicated columnists. Only 20 […]
