This is precious.
Immediately after the election, a few networks ran with the story that McCain campaign workers were claiming that Sarah Palin did not know Africa was a continent, among other ludicrous claims. Turns out, MSMBC’s source for the claim was one Martin Eisenstadt.
Turns out, Martin Eisenstadt isn’t real. He’s a fictional character.
Some people were [...]

Some media are having a difficult time reacting to the charges by McCain that they are completely and unashamedly pushing their candidate. They have discussed it, they have debated, and some to a small degree, have admitted it. If one has any doubts at all, all they need to is go to CNN’s front page [...]

Been out of action for a few days. Decided to take a mini-vacation. Came back to this side-splitting “headline”:
Palin expands character attacks
Her “character attacks” are mentioning people Obama has hung out with that just don’t look so good now that he’s running for president.
In my world, a “character attack” is attacking one’s character. You know, [...]

A lot is being made over the Republicans, me included, complaining how biased the media has been. I could cite evidence all day and night if I felt like it. I’ll just cite a couple of quickies from my own observations in no particular order:
Sarah Palin has been scrutinized mercilessly, criticized, and editorialized relentlessly over [...]

Several in media have been insinuating that there might be a double standard at play regarding Sarah Palin. Let’s see. We’ve had a couple of very recent events to compare. So, let’s do, shall we?
John Edwards ran for President as recently as early this year. He ran on ethics primarily. He lost but maintained a [...]

Now, my peeps here know how I feel about Condi Rice. So, I think, smarting from the Obama/Hillary dustup, Anderson Cooper decided to try and turn the wheels on McCain by planting the seed of discontent in folks like me over McCain “snubbing” Condi in the manner of Obama snubbing Clinton. Two serious differences here that [...]

Immediately after it became known that Sarah Palin would be John McCain’s running mate, CNN ran a poll asking people if they had supported Hillary Clinton if they would now consider McCain/Palin. Approximately 41% at the last I saw it said yes. That’s enough to turn this election into a washout for Obama. So, CNN [...]

Just when I thought it was safe to assume Keith Olbermann was completely nuts, he tops himself. This is what the pride of the left wing had to say about John McCain’s recent ad featuring two hot young celebs:
KEITH OLBERMANN: What about when it backfires? Because it seems like the celebrity ad continues to echo. [...]

I heard someone on Foxnews or CNN comment that this election will be moreso a referendum on Obama than an election of competing candidates. I tend to agree with that given the overwhelming support Obama gets from media. Now, to me, that’s not as cynical as it sounds. Part of being a national candidate is [...]

This is getting pretty near amazing to me. No sooner than I write about the media doing everything they can to cover up Nancy Pelosi’s Democrat culture of corruption, here comes another example:
ARAPAHO, Okla. (AP) — Authorities have charged a western Oklahoma sheriff with coercing and bribing female inmates so he could use them in [...]
