After a few months of abstinence I finally found something blogworthy. It seems that every time I open up an AP article I am bombarded with opinions and unattributed claims. This is a very bad thing because AP is supposedly a news service — meaning it is supposed to be straight up news reporting — all objective — [...]

Bill O’Reilly Fort Hood shootings
Did anyone notice a lack of the word “terrorist” in the news coverage of the Fort Hood shootings?
Glenn Beck and the third party
Today’s Glenn Beck show was significant in every respect. Glenn Beck has made it clear in the past that he detested the Republicans in Congress as much as the Democrats, but defecting to a third party seemed out of the question.

Mark Twain once said that laughter was mankind’s greatest defense and that “against the assault of laughter nothing can stand.”
In the following clip, Beck nails Olbermann and Mathews. He [...]
