I absolutely cannot believe the way that the media and the blogosphere is hyping up the “Unity” event that is going on today. Live video going on at MSNBC, all the major networks have their staff embedded for the event, I mean come on people, it is just a campaign rally.
I wish the main stream […]

Bill Clinton, former President of The United States, has said that he is fully ready to help support Barack Obama in his bid for the White House, according to a Clinton spokesman.
So what is that Bill can do in order to ensure that Barack Obama is our next president?
Well, for starters he can not pull […]

In a move that was widely expected by many, NBC News announced today that Tom Brokaw will take over as anchor of Meet The Press through the remainder of the election cycle.
As for a more permanent anchor once the election season is over, I suspect that it could possibly be Tom Brokaw, although I believe […]

During my time on The Blog Bunker today, on Sirius 110 Indie_Talk, Joe and I discussed the loss of Tim Russert and what he meant to the world of politics and the world of journalism.
Now that I am back at my hotel, I am looking over some Russert related stories and found a great piece […]

The New Yorker has posted a must-read piece by Peter Boyer that looks into the life and daily dealings of Keith Olbermann.
Many could argue that Keith Olbermann, and his nightly show Countdown, have transformed cable news in many ways. It is not very often that we get to see someone like Olbermann on cable news […]

If you are one of the idiot Americans that watches Fixed News, I feel really sorry for you. Not because you made such a poor choice, but because you have to put up with the right-wing machine rhetoric that they constantly throw in your face.
Here is another wonderful example of “fair and balanced” Fox reporting:
Gotta […]

Once again Fixed News has proved just how idiotic they are, but this time it is a little more serious.
Today, on the weekend edition of American Election HQ, they graced us with Liz Trotta, who when asked to comment on the recent Hillary Clinton statements, gave us a nice little window into her world….

When Hillary Rodham Clinton gets up in front a crowd, on national TV, and tells the world that she is ahead in the popular vote, why won’t the media correct her?
Note to media…… You have to call bullshit and correct her.
Currently, Hillary Clinton is out there on the trail spewing two different lies:
1. She is […]

If you were watching cable news around the 6:30-7:30pm EST. time frame, you will no doubt have seen the live coverage of the John Edwards endorsement speech during an Obama event tonight.
Well, not if you were watching Fixed News.
MSNBC covered it live, CNN covered it live, so why did Fixed News choose not to cover […]

Once again, Fixed News is up to their usual false slandering of Barack Obama. News Hounds points out that last night, Fixed News once again tried to paint Obama as a supporter of Hamas.
Hannity & Colmes spent half its show last night (5/12/08) attacking Obama for various reasons. In the third segment, Karl Rove, still […]

Former NC Senator John Edwards made an appearance on the Today show this morning, but still has not officially endorsed either candidate for the 2008 Democratic nomination.
“I think right now Barack Obama has a better chance because it looks like he’s going to be the nominee.”
Although he didn’t actually endorse Obama, his comment shows who […]

I never really thought that I would be saying that, as for a while the debates seemed to be weekly. The 21st Democratic Presidential Debate of the election season will air live tonight at 8pm on ABC.
The debate is set for 90 minutes and will once again place Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. Hillary Clinton […]

Posted by Cory Perry in Fox News, Iraq War, TV Coverage
Yep, good ol’ Republican mouthpiece Fixed News has once again been deemed the official place of LAST among cable news outlets for coverage of the Iraq war.
Really, is this a surprise to anyone?
Foxattacks.com has a great video and story about this.
Fox, in turn, spent less time on the war in Iraq than the others (10% […]

Meet The Press - James Carville, Mike Murphy, Mary Matalin, and Bob Shrum.
Can’t wait to hear how many times Carville says that Obama is trying to disenfranchise voters by not approving a MI/FL recount. My bet is that he will also say many times that the Clinton campaign has played “very fair.”
Face The Nation - […]

Ok, I have seriously heard it all from Gov. Ed Rendell now, but I want you to hear it, just so you can understand that I am not making this up.
While on Fixed News doing an interview, Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell commented that Fox News has by far been the most fair and balanced news […]
