The unemployment rate rose in November, from 9.6 percent up to 9.8 percent after only 39,000 jobs were added to the workforce. On MSNBC's "Morning Joe" Mark Haines of CNBC called the data "disappointing."

That's the sound you would hear if you were looking for any sort of broadcast media coverage on site at the 2010 United Nations Climate Change Conference going on now in Cancun. A survey of the broadcast…

This week's news quiz is a toughie. If you blame Sarah Palin for the GOP's failure to take the Senate, have 'always loved NPR,' oppose Arizona's immigration law as "unacceptable and un-American' and called Republican candidate Sharron Angle a '…

You'd think it impossible, but many members of the media appear as stubbornly clueless as is the president about the message of the mid-terms.

On Sunday's 'Meet the Press,' David Gregory stated that Obama has the left disappointed, the…

If you want to bring up something that makes the left crazy, mention the Citizens United-Federal Election Commission Supreme Court decision.

And, while the punditry on MSNBC and other liberal haunts would have you believe that big…

Weeks at sea. A horribly cold winter. Poor shelter. Lack of food. Disease and even death.

That was the stark life of the pilgrims. Yet when they looked back on their first year in the new land, they weren't angry. They didn't just cry…

Dear Mr. Buffett. Thank you for your suggestion that everyone who earns over

$1 million a year patriotically pony up and get taxed a lot more than we already are. Your free advice so generously given should not pass without grateful…

Shorter Ezra Klein Nov. 21 column: Let them eat wonky policy papers!

If this is Klein trying to win the contest for the best impersonation of the inside-the-beltway 'Grinch Who Stole Christmas,' he may have pulled it off. In a not-so-…

Thanksgiving: a time to give … until the media are satisfied that you have given enough, and in a politically correct way.

That’s certainly the view of The New York Times which unveiled its 18-page “Giving” section last week celebrating “…

From “An Inconvenient Truth” to the recent gruesome British video that showed children skeptical or unsure of the dangers of climate change being blown up, the messages coming from extreme environmentalists are often exaggerated and scary.

It’s funny that every time the Republican Party has any sort of power in government, there’s a clamoring for so-called bipartisan action from the media elite.

Thomas Friedman, a New York Times columnist, appeared on the Fox Business…

Call it the law of unintended consequences, but supposing the Bush tax cuts are allowed to expire by President Barack Obama, people might react in ways that are detrimental to the overall economy.

On CNBC’s Nov. 11 “Squawk on the Street…

Nearly $1 trillion. Certainly that’s a big enough tax hike to warrant prominent mention in a broadcast evening news show – especially after an election fueled by anger against government overspending and potential tax hikes.

Yet, only one…

To paraphrase a famous movie line, the liberals are revolting.

Only, this time it isn’t a joke. They apparently mean it.

We’ve suffered through years of lefty calls for violence, claims the government was somehow “fascist” and led…

Only a royal king and queen would use an entire fleet of aircraft to take a couple thousand people (!) from their royal court and elite circle of friends on a week-long holiday to distant India. Back home, there is deep recession immune to the…

The November 9 episode of Glee titled “Never Been Kissed” was quite the show stopper – unless you're the media. The unexpected homosexual kiss between male high school students was nothing short of jaw-dropping, and yet the liberal media were “…
