Right wing media are already taking President Obama's comments at this morning's prayer breakfast out of context in order to play into the hateful attack that our President is a terrorist sympathizer who hates Christians. Hot Air accused the President of comparing Christianity to ISIS: Drudge went with the single out ...

On January 26th, New York Times columnist Charles Blow posted an op-ed entitled Library Visit, Then Held at Gunpoint, where he wrote about his son being detained at gunpoint by a Yale University police officer.

You may recall former CBS News reporter Sharyl Attkisson's absurd stories about her computer being hacked by the Post Office. I had some comments about her laughable claims last November.

Barrett Brown, who occasionally posted in our LGF Pages section a few years ago, was sentenced today to 63 months in prison for transmitting threats, being an accessory to hacking charges, and interfering with a search warrant.

YouTube I started to write "unbelievable," but this is sadly all too believable -- and horrifyingly emblematic of a political party that is quite literally denying reality: Republicans Post Doctored Version of State of the Union, Censor Facts on Climate Change.

Steve Emerson, who claims to be an Islam expert, was on Fox News spouting off bogus statistics about Muslims living in the UK.

In the wake of the Charlie Hebdo terror attack, anti-Muslim ranting at right wing blogs has reached an insane feverish pitch, totally out of control, and not a single blogger or commenter is denouncing it. It's off the scale; I've never seen it worse than this. For example, at Breitbart "News," ...

Sometimes I really love right wing journalism. Where else can you find such amusing self-beclownment on a regular basis, written by people with marginal command of the English language and no fact-checking skills at all? It's some of the funniest stuff on the web (if you ignore the sheer hatefulness ...
