In a speech to the graduating class of Tuskegee University, Michelle Obama talked about how she had to deal with fear, misperceptions and prejudice as the first African American First Lady. And then the commenters at Breitbart "News," the hate site Andrew built, spewed an unbelievably awful deluge of racist hatred ...

At Breitbart "News" tonight, deranged "editor" John Nolte (who doesn't actually "edit" anything) denies he's comparing hate group leader Pamela Geller to Jesus Christ, as he compares Pamela Geller to Jesus Christ: Dear Bill O'Reilly: Jesus Insulted Religion a Lot More Than Pamela Geller Has. Jesus provoked, attacked, insulted, divided, ...

I kind of hate to write another article about this disgusting creep, but his descent into open racism marks another milestone on his journey to outright unemployable white supremacism, and it should be documented so that anyone considering an association with Chuck C. Johnson in the future will be aware ...

A group of Stanford computer scientists have developed an algorithm that supposedly can detect trolls by analyzing as few as five comments.

By now everyone's heard about the reports that a French prosecutor has alleged that copilot Andreas Lubitz deliberately crashed a Germanwings A320 into an alpine mountain late Tuesday. Key word, of course, being "alleged," because nothing has been determined for certain yet. But that doesn't stop the Stupidest Man on the ...

SoundCloud Here's the guy who was invited to give a speech at CPAC this year, and was awarded the "Andrew Breitbart Defender of the First Amendment" prize. I hesitated about even posting this, because it's unbelievably deranged. This is what the right wing has devolved into. "I'll make a bet with you," ...

Yes, dear readers, I have arrived at long last. Climate change denying right wing performing clown "Steve Goddard" (real name: Tony Heller) has named me his "Climate Moron of the Day," after a rather hilarious Twitter fight. Somebody's spreading nonsense, all right, but it isn't me. Here's what ground measurements show. ...

Today's Republican circular firing squad took place when presidential hopeful Scott Walker was forced to fire his new social media consultant Liz Mair (it was portrayed as a "resignation," of course), who had been hired less than 24 hours before the debacle. Mair ran afoul of the Republican Party's far right ...

One of the truly awful stories being completely ignored by our "left wing media" is how utterly debased and openly racist the comment sections on sites like Breitbart "News" have become. There's absolutely no attempt by the owners of these sites to shut down the ranting lunatics or moderate their ...

Ah, CPAC -- the conservative movement's primary action conference, attended by most of the major Republican politicians and prospective front runners for the Presidential nomination. The conservative conference where religious fanatic and overt racist Phil Robertson gets a "First Amendment" award from Breitbart "News." And the conservative conference that gave press credentials ...

Since Rudy Giuliani's ugly comments about President Obama not loving America, I've been making the point that Scott Walker is deliberately dodging the question because he simply can't afford to alienate the deeply deranged base of Republican voters if he plans to run for president. Today at the Washington Post, ...

From Eric Jon Engberg's Facebook post about this event; you should also read the comments at his post linked below because other media workers add their recollections. I remember looking on a monitor at the long stand-up O'Reilly ordered his crew to shoot, which was never used on the ...

If you've watched right wing politics at all, Rudy Giuliani's latest statements will come as no surprise -- now he's painting himself as a persecuted victim after his ugly comments that President Obama "doesn't love America." The former New York mayor told CNN on Friday that the majority of the ...

YouTube YouTube As David Corn and Daniel Schulman report, Bill O'Reilly Has His Own Brian Williams Problem -- and it makes Williams look like a piker when it comes to lying about war zone experiences. Because nobody denies that Williams was actually there in Iraq, but O'Reilly apparently made up entire stories ...

I'll start this post by noting that if Brian Williams is found to have lied about his experiences in Iraq, it's a serious issue that needs to be addressed. But doubt remains about whether he deliberately embellished his story or is suffering from a false memory -- a very common ...
