Gawker took us back to 2006 by posting these pictures from someone's Facebook account of Katie Couric celebrating her new job as the anchor of the CBS Evening News by getting all messy on the dance floor. I've always known that Dan Rather could smash lights with his crotch thrusts, but who knew Katie Couric could pop that asshole like it's Groundhog Day!? Katie is giving FACE, BOOTY, SPAKLE, FACE...

Bernie Goldberg tells it the way Dan Rather never would or could, nor could Bob Shieffer, his witless successor: Bernard Goldberg, a former CBS News correspondent, took the media to task for its coverage. "What's the story line they run with? Religion? Of course not. Can't do that. He's a Muslim," he said Friday on Fox News' "The O'Reilly Factor." "They run with post-traumatic...

You could expect no less from a magazine which has been caught in more fabricated stories than Dan Rather at a campside. Here is the cover . The photo was taken by Sarah for Runner's World, yet Newsweak's motivation is evident. In approaching several supermarket chains in the South Florida area I asked them to remove the magazine or face media coverage of why they would carry such an obvious sexist...

Recently, Sesame Street has come under fire from conservative news sources about a two-year-old joke in which Oscar the Grouch's girlfriend Grundgetta claims to want to watch "POX News: Now there's a trashy news show!" As we all know, conservative ears have trouble differentiating the P and F sounds, so the O'Reilly Militia immediately started shouting at the top of their lungs about how...

To answer the interesting question Greg Sargent raised yesterday. As he noted, the Beltway press in the past has often been generous in crediting conservative bloggers for changing the game: When right wing bloggers got Dan Rather fired from CBS, traditional news orgs widely hailed the role of right blogostan in exposing the shortcomings of Rather’s story on Bush and the National Guard and gave...

When listing the accomplishments of the conservative blogger, the fall of Dan Rather seems so far to be their crowning achievement. Greg Sargent at the Washington Post wonders if lefty blogs deserve similar credit for Lou Dobbs’ resignation, seeing as they provided a constant drumbeat for his firing, systematically and tediously reporting his more outlandish [...]

Greg Sargent at Plum Line : When right wing bloggers got Dan Rather fired from CBS, traditional news orgs widely hailed the role of right blogostan in exposing the shortcomings of Rather’s story on Bush and the National Guard and gave the right full credit for bringing him down. Now that Lou Dobbs — also a major media figure — has quit CNN, it remains to be seen whether the online...

by Len Hart, The Existentialist Cowboy Only a controlled demolition looks like a controlled demolition. And WTC 7 looks like a controlled demolition because it was 'pulled' just as Silverstein himself said it was. And if it was 'pullled', it had to have been 'prepped', that is, explosives planted and wired perhaps two weeks or more in advance of the so-called 'terrorist attack'. There is --in fact...

Last night, as part of the New York Comedy Festival and the Bob Woodruff Foundation , the annual event was held to honour United States ‘ injured service members. The very funny (and extremely naughty) Lisa Lampanelli was there along with That 70’s Show’s Wilmer Valderrama who looks all grown up as well as Dan Rather, The Fray, Sam Champion , and Elvis Costello . A great crowd for a great cause.

This is my response to a cruel article on Sarah Palin by Peggy Noonan. She had supportive and positive words regarding the possibility of an Obama administration. Since she displayed positive words of support for Obama, how conservative could she really be? Peggy Noonan’s roots are firmly grounded in and around New York City . She was raised in one of the most elitist and liberal cities in the country.
