Among the other Wikileaks-related craziness this week, Washington Times columnist/loon Jeffrey Kuhner called for the Obama administration to kill Julian Assange. Kuhner is one of the most rabid columnists at the Washington Times (and that's saying plenty). In September we featured another wacky Kuhner column, saying that Obama was "imposing a ...

The Washington Times just keeps getting crazier and crazier: KUHNER: President's socialist takeover must be stopped. President Obama has engaged in numerous high crimes and misdemeanors. The Democratic majority in Congress is in peril as Americans reject his agenda. Yet more must be done: Mr. Obama should be impeached. He is ...

It’s official; far right newspaper the Washington Times is going on the auction block. Washington Times executives are negotiating to sell the newspaper, after the Rev. Sun Myung Moon’s family cut off most of the annual subsidy of about $35 million that has kept the Unification Church-backed paper afloat, company ...

The Southern Poverty Law Center’s Hatewatch blog has some interesting information about white supremacist blogger Robert Stacy McCain — who is apparently writing for the Washington Times again (in addition to posting articles at Pajamas Media and Hot Air). Robert Stacy McCain, a former key Washington Times editor who has ...

The racism at the Washington Times (former employer of white supremacist blogger Robert Stacy McCain) is bubbling to the surface for all to smell, like noxious sewer gas. Today they ran the following advertisement, a lunatic Birther ad featuring images of monkeys. This isn’t even “dog whistle” racism. It’s right ...

Washington Times editor Wesley Pruden sums up Barack Obama in racially charged language, saying Obama has no “blood impulse” to be an American. This kind of stuff is becoming more and more open in “conservative” media. It’s no fault of the president that he has no natural instinct or blood impulse ...

TPM’s Ben Frumin reports that the Washington Times may be on the brink of a shutdown: Is The Washington Times’ Continued Operation In Jeopardy? Things seem to be going from bad to worse at the Washington Times. And the continued operation of the newspaper, which is owned by Rev. Sun ...

It’s getting weird at the Washington Times, as a reported power struggle in Sun Myung Moon’s Unification Church causes chaos among the paper’s top management. There’s still a lot of confusion in the Washington Times newsroom, two days after the removal of three top business-side executives and high-ranking members of ...

The page isn’t live any more, but Google still has a cached copy of a revealing story about racist blogger Robert Stacy McCain, and his angry departure from the staff of the Washington Times: GEORGE ARCHIBALD: BREAKUP AT THE WASHINGTON TIMES? FishbowlDC, an Internet Web site of MediaBistro, reported on ...

Washington Times editor emeritus Wesley Pruden rants about Obama’s speech to schoolchildren: The president’s press spokesman Monday derided the parents’ protest as “an ‘Animal House’ food fight.” This sounds less like strategy than surrender. Mr. Obama was educated at Yale Law School, but a professor at Grinder Switch A&M could ...

An editorial in the Washington Times is a perfect example of what I’ve been calling the “distortions” about the DHS report on right wing extremism: Smearing veterans. The whole piece is full of overheated accusations like this: Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano has defended her department’s outrageous claim that veterans are ...
