  • Oh for God's Sake--Journalism is slime an no more

    I'm not particularly fond of the Clintons, but there is no couple in the world whose history is more publicly known that Billary. Ken Starr spent sixty million dollars to prove Bill is a perv and in the process had to drop investigations into a half dozen supposed financial scandals. Since the White House years, this couple exactly avoided the ...

  • Professional Journalism

    I know you are professional journalists. A profession is a fancy Latin term for the way you express your belief in the one true God as you understand him. Mr. Webster describes profession as the act of taking the vows of a religious community, or: an act of openly declaring or publicly claiming a belief or faith: an avowed religious faith a: a ...

  • Is The Media Bias? Here is Evidence of Bias

    How the Media Vote. Surveys of journalists’ self-reported voting habits show them backing the Democratic candidate in every presidential election since 1964, including landslide losers George McGovern, Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis. In 2004, a poll conducted by the University of Connecticut found journalists backed John Kerry over George W. ...

  • Franken on the Hill

    Before we rebuild another country we need to clean our own house. By that I mean send career politicians packing, rather they be republican, democrat or an independent. Sorry this means Ted Kennedy needs to go home and fight his cancer and Oklahoma's Istook needs to return to mopping floors at the radio station. There could be worse things to ...

  • Enough. Please. We get it.

    Is it not possible that the political reporters and talking heads that you're referring to are showing a rare bit of restraint? After all, Democrats are still voting in several states. I'm absolutely stunned that so many have refrained from joining the deafening chorus of ''she can't win'' while people still have yet to vote. We don't call ...

  • Oh spare me....

    I'm a pretty ticked off white person. First, I'm pretty convinced that the media gains something by not letting go of racism. What will you talk about if it’s actually gone? I've studied sociology and was once told that the only true racism in our society is institutional racism. Well - it's the only racism that really costs any race a pretty ...

  • Why the 2008 Election Doesn't Matter

    After watching Barack Obama's victory speech in South Carolina two nights ago, this vague uneasiness that has nagged in the back of my mind finally became clear. Senator Obama's charisma is indisputable and his speeches sometimes reach a level of oratorical power that has not been seen in the United States since the days of Robert Kennedy and ...
