Why Ed Schultz Became a Liberal

Big hat-tip to the AOSHQ Headlines on this one. You sometimes hear conservative guys joke that liberal guys are liberal just because they want to score with liberal chicks. MSNBC’s firebrand “populist” is the punchline to that joke: He savors his skewering of the right, but there was a time when he was one of […]

Does Sarah Palin Need a Tutor? Would Richard Wolffe Volunteer for the Job?

Cubachi has a post about Richard Wolffe on Hardball with Chris Matthews, in which Wolffe ridiculed the British writer C.S. Lewis as a mere “children’s author”: Lewis was, of course, a master of Christian apologetics and a good friend of J.R.R. Tolkien — they were colleagues at Oxford University — with whom he shared a desire to […]

Awesome Awesomeness Update: MSNBC Host Rips Into Democrat Alan Grayson

Given that Alan Grayson is one of the most vile pieces of filth ever elected to Congress — but not re-elected, as he got stomped 56%-38% by Republican Daniel Webster last month — there can be no doubt that he deserved this abuse from MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell: Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and […]

More MSNBC Awesomeness: Obama Gets Pimp-Slapped by Rachel Maddow

Via Talking Points Memo: Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy Between this and the Olbermann rant, MSNBC is clearly signaling a new programming strategy, to challenge Fox News as the No. 1 cable destination for Obama-haters.

(To be exact, with only 140 characters to work with, what I […]

Jill Filipovic and Amanda Marcotte to Denounce Keith Olbermann in 3, 2, 1 . . .

Defenders of Julian Assange are now “downshifting from Camille Paglia to Three Days of the Condor,” resorting to a conspiracy-theory defense of the WikiLeaker’s First Amendment right to condom-free sex with Swedish socialists: Here’s how an evidence-free, innuendo-filled personal attack on a rape accuser trespasses the mainstream political debate. On his Twitter feed, MSNBC host […]

She’s Certainly Making the Right Enemies

Congratulations, Governor Palin: You can add the hatred of Charles Johnson, next to the pathological obsession of Andrew Sullivan, in your trophy case. As to Joe Scarborough’s accusation that Palin is a “cultural icon” of “anti-intellectualism” . . . Hey, let’s go to the video: “To all you people who want to send me e-mails: Don’t waste […]

Outrageous: MSNBC Broadcast Causes Left-Wing Woman to Make Fake School-Shooting Threat Blamed on Tea Party

On Nov. 9, South Florida talk-radio host Joyce Kaufman was named as chief of staff for newly-elected Republican congressman Allen West. That night, Rachel Maddow aired a video of Kaufman giving a fiery speech at a Tea Party. A shooting threat Nov. 10 led to the shutdown of Broward schools, and Kaufman’s resignation was announced Nov. 11.  Two weeks […]
