Michelle, Crooksandliars.com, double standards and unfairness…

Michelle recently posted an article about what she claims is a double standard that exist. When she was reporting on SCHIP or immigration issues, a number of us on the left criticized her for harassing the Graeme family, or singling out undocumented workers, etc.
The Boston Globe article appears, on its face to do the same. [...]

Where is the meat, Bill?

OReilly and Miller went at it recently, criticizing the movie Redacted.
I listed to the 3 minutes and a half. I barely heard what the movie was about, and I didn’t hear any substantial criticism of the factual content of the movie.
The only thing I heard was superficial bashing (Palma is not pro troops, this will [...]

OReilly is NOT taking on Media Matters

If OReilly was really doing that, he would have Media Matters on his show. At the very least he could quote them on his show instead of just talking about what they do without ever actually showing what they do.
 For those that might be tempted to argue he has the clip on his website, this [...]

What now, shutdown the UN?

Unbelievable. If we listen to right wingers, we need to shut down the UN and start nuking countries left and right…
Michelle is complaining the Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is even allowed to come to New York for some UN meeting! First groud zero becomes off limit, now the UN!
These regressive ideas will get us nowhere.
Everybody better start [...]

Fox is too smart for this?

Laura Ingraham was complaining that some networks, including Fox News, use sex in their shows.
She said Fox and Neil Cavuto were too smart and too good for this.
 Yeah right! Fox is too smart: they know that you won’t tune out when you see Paris hilton on the right side of the screen. They know that [...]

Can the right stop dilluting ‘hate’?

It seems to me OReilly started this whole discussion last week with Jet Blue sponsoring DailyKos. Of course the left couldn’t just sit there being smeared so they started going after OReilly for similar ‘hate’ items on his website…
 This is really sad. The word hate should be reserved for a special category of sites and [...]

This dailykos issue is only about starving them…

Hot Air has the clip from OReilly
This jetblue story is ridiculous. There are tons of advertisers that put ads on controversial shows, left and right. For Kirsten to say that corporations should avoid the blogosphere is ridiculous, because they should then avoid every other show like Hannity and Colmes, OReilly Factor, Olbermann, Michael Savage, Thom Hartmann, etc. [...]

Kirsten is at it again!

Kirsten was on the OReilly show discussing the latest Michael Moore / CNN appearance ( Parts of the segment at Hotair )
If there was a spectrum on the health care debate, part of it would be defending Michael and part of it would be to bash him. We get treated to three people making fun of [...]

I think we need to work on the ‘fair and balance’ concept…

I watched part of the Factor tonight and couldn’t believe my eyes. The show spent simply a few minutes on the Libby pardon. That Michelle defends the decision I could understand. That both of the ‘democratic’ guests defend it or Libby is simply amazing. One would think it wouldn’t be hard to find at least [...]

One point to Hot Air for posting the Fox News version of “The Release”

A few nights ago OReilly was claiming that there are no good reasons to report individual bombings. I am paraphrasing, but essentially it is “What do you learn about yet another bombing?”
 In the last few days, he reported on both the murder of Jessie Davis and the imminent release of Paris Hilton. I think there is [...]
