FoxNews.Com Describes Watergate Figure Chuck Colson As A "Prison Fellowship Founder"
Convicted Watergate-figure Chuck Colson died today. While an article on FoxNews.com rightly identified him as a "Watergate figure" who "turned to religion," a FoxNews.com's video page took a more euphemistic approach. There, Colson was described merely as a "prison fellowship founder."

Jon Stewart took on Fox News' pivot to embrace Mitt Romney once it became clear he was the likely Republican presidential nominee. "Romney's election is Fox's job," Stewart begins.
Read moreGeraldo Rivera Back On The Hoodie Warpath
Geraldo Rivera – who blamed Trayvon Martin's hoodie for his death and then apologized for his comments after they ignited a firestorm – is once again suggesting that minorities wearing hoodies are fair game to be thought of as criminals. On Fox & Friends yesterday, Rivera said about the subject, “Sometimes stereotyping exists because it's based on reality. That's unfortunately the world we live in.”
Read moreAnn Coulter Has Some Suggestions For Blacks In The Wake Of Trayvon Martin Shooting
Take heart Black America: Ann Coulter is looking out for you in the wake of the Trayvon Martin shooting and she's got some advice for those of you who might fear the same fate as Trayvon: Carry a gun and join the NRA. Despite her racial mistrust in the past, two-time voter-fraud suspect Coulter now thinks shootouts on streetcorners is a great idea.
Read moreDemocrat Hansen Clarke Slaps Down Stuart Varney's Attacks On Student Loan Forgiveness
On Your World yesterday, Stuart Varney repeatedly attacked the Student Loan Forgiveness Act as a "bailout." He couldn't really come up with any other reasons to call it a bad idea, but threw around “bailout” as if that, alone, should scare any viewers away from even thinking about whether or not the Act might have some real merit. Unfortunately for Varney, Rep. Hansen Clarke (D-MI) slapped aside every argument, starting with the point that taxpayers are already on the hook for defaults.

Read moreDennis Miller's Tasteless Joke About Eliot Spitzer And the Secret Service Prostitution Scandal
During his regular Wednesday night visit to The O'Reilly Factor last night, Dennis Miller said this about the Secret Service prostitution scandal: “Hey, Billy, I don't know what you get for $47 bucks (in Cartagena, Chile) but we're getting' killed by the exchange rate. Now this is what happens. You go in, you offer the girl 50. I don't know what 50 gets you. I wish I worked at Current TV tonight, I could ask Spitzer to pull the price card out of his wallet. He could tell me.”
Read moreFox News Highlights The Democrat Who Voted Against The Buffett Rule
On yesterday's Your World, Sen. Mark Pryor (D-AR) spoke with Stuart Varney about why he was the only Democrat to vote against the Buffett Rule. "Both sides are wrong on taxes... Sometimes President Obama, he doesn't really says this, but almost says, ...if we tax millionaires enough, all our problems will go away. Also, the Republicans, I think they're wrong on taxes too. They say we shouldn't raise taxes on anybody under any circumstances. I think both those approaches are wrong.... I think we need comprehensive tax reform along the lines of Simpson-Bowles laid out for us." He said "I do think millionaires should pay their fair share."
Read moreO'Reilly Suggests CNN, Howard Kurtz And Julie Mason Are Colluding To Re-Elect Obama
If you don't know who Julie Mason is, let me tell you she happens to be my talk radio goddess. Seriously. She hosts a show called The Press Pool on the Sirius/XM station POTUS every weekday where she interviews political reporters, often those who cover the White House. While she seems to be more conservative than I, she is one bright and knowledgeable woman dedicated to excellence in media and reporting. In short, she is the anti-Fox News. So when Bill O'Reilly called her a loon for saying he and Glenn Beck damage the Fox News brand – and complained that CNN's Howard Kurtz “didn't slap her down like he should have” because, he suggested, the two of them are working to get President Obama re-elected - well, Bill those are fightin' words to me.
