Seems Nothing is "Racism"
Looks like the author doesn't classify ANY behavior as racist. It's not the college's fault if the alumni prefer a white coach. It's not the employers fault if he won't even consider Shaniqua - she must be ghetto garbage. If her name had been Susan, she'd never be ''sassy'' or have an attitude. It's not anyone's fault if minorities live in toxic, ...

terrific article
the thing is, Murdock will do anything for money, it would seem. he isn't dedicated to honesty, integrity, intelligence, respectability or, we all know, the United States. He's a multi-national, conglomerate, corporate man, dedicated to the dollar. He gave Glenn Beck his platform, Beck has found ways to make money and be popular by being ...

Failure to Admit Blagojevich Appointee to Senate Big Mistake
Failure to Admit Illinois Governor Blagojevich's Appointee, the eminently qualified and well reputed Roland Burris, to the United States Senate will prove to be a supremely Big Mistake made by the Democratic Senate Leadership and yes, Barack Obama. News today is that the U.S. Senate will seat 59 Democratic Senators, including their Candidate ...

Gil-White demolishes Entine: "race" is _not_ meaningful
If skin color predicts the likelihood of some gene, great -- you still don't know anything beyond that gene about the ''meaningfulness'' of race. And, if the elephant in the room is mental ability -- as Gil-White demonstrates is often the case in race/sports/biology arguments -- we certainly don't know anything about a person's mind, ...

Gay Marriage and the Race Analogy
The racism analogy isn't perfect or exact and probably should not be the only one used. However, until a better analogy can be made, and I don't see the writer of this article offering any suggestions, it's going to stick! A complicating factor will be the many bigots of all races and creeds who refuse to accept the growing body of evidence that ...

IQ, Race, Freedom & Oppression
Apparently Saletan wants to be an egalitarian in an age of genetic differences. He wants to be a truthful scientist in an age of dogmatic coercion. He wants self-respect and integrity, but he doesn’t want to suffer for living according to his values. Big dilemma. However, Saletan has managed to delicately sidestep the main issue, which is not ...

Ignore Lies? Worst Advice Ever. SMACK those liars DOWN!
During Katrina, America realized the astonishing truth that lies can actually matter. Lying that you've sent water to hurricane victims when you've really prevented water from getting to them, lying that you've got a plan for climate change when you really just want more oil profit, lying about not being racist and then putting out ...

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 ...

Dahlia Lithwick Uses Recipes to Write a Legal Column About..
... ABORTION. Lithwick's very idea that women do not have reproductive choice, if they cannot extinquish the life growing in their own wombs, is in and of itself faulty. I mean, my God, did the female have sex with the guy, or did she not? As to being ''for change'' in everything but pro-Abort American policies at home and abroad, not everyone ...
