Well, actually, no. Keith Olbermann was suspended indefinitely without pay from his job on MSNBC for donating money to political candidates. Well, actually no, again. Although I’ve seen plenty of headlines saying this. If truth be told, MSNBC does not prohibit employees from donating to political candidates, but it does require them to obtain prior […]

You want to talk a little foreign money in politics? George Soros has admitted to donating $1 million to Media Matters for America. – Rush Limbaugh How wrong can Limbaugh get it? Well, first of all, Soros announced that he was donating money to Media Matters, which he didn’t have to do. Unlike all those […]
It is fascinating to watch Dylan Ratigan explain the simple truth about Muslims, terrorists, and the American “War on Islam”. But what makes this ironic is how absolutely uncomfortable this makes the rest of the people on the Morning Joe show. Especially when he calls it “an extraordinary failure of our politicians and our media.” […]

© Tom Tomorrow Yes, believe it or not, this really happened. By the same infantile liar who brought down ACORN with his heavily edited and misleading video.

Three interesting articles in blogs today, all worth a read: Over at Politicususa they analyze the recent Pew Research Center’s survey of where people get their news, and conclude that the biggest competition to Fox News is not MSNBC or even CNN, but comedians Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert on Comedy Central. I love reading […]

Dan Rather hits the nail on the head. I have worked in and with corporate-owned media, and have seen the same things. You don’t need to believe in any kind of conspiracy — either right or left wing — to understand how the slavish obsession with profits of our corporate controlled media is destroying the […]

Jon Stewart seems to be the only media personality willing to take on Fox News, so it’s a good thing he does it so well. Here are some of the best clips from the Daily Show showing the hypocrisy and outright lying coming from Fox News, often in their own words: 1. Fair and Balanced? […]
I have started wondering why Republicans decided to make a big deal out of some Islamic cultural center being built in an old Burlington Coat Factory store site. After all, it is pretty much a non-issue, since it would be clearly unconstitutional to legally block them from building it. And then it hit me. The […]

Yes, I know it isn’t actually a mosque, and it isn’t at ground zero, but a reader sent me an interesting question. As you may know, the second largest owner of Fox News is a Saudi Prince who happens to be a Muslem. This reader claims that Fox News has not mentioned the proposed “ground […]
Two years ago I posted an article about the McCain campaign paying people to down-vote web articles they didn’t like. Including mine. Well, it looks like it has gotten a lot worse since then. A well-researched posting on AlterNet shows exactly how conservatives groups are deliberately spam-voting against articles they don’t like, or people they […]
