Just being announced – CBS has fired Don Imus. Now will CNN fire Glenn Beck? Will FOX fire O’Reilly or Hannity? There is a new standard being set now, so we will hold all feet to the fire on it.

Via Atrios: For much of the past week, CNN and its White House correspondent Suzanne Malveaux have offered a steady stream of inaccurate and incomplete coverage of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) trip to the Middle East and her April 3 meeting with Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad. Please join Media Matters for America in demanding […]

The right wing blogosphere had to post retraction’s yesterday to the Matt Drudge claim that Michael Ware heckled during the McCain press conference on Sunday. Well all except one. That would be Malkin’s Hot Air blog, which is of course no shock. They started to set the record straight with this: Update: Raw Story’s got […]

I guess it was fine and dandy for the Republicans to use a blow job for politics in the Clinton years, but when it comes […]

That is is from the Army Times: Soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center’s Medical Hold Unit say they have been told they will wake up at 6 a.m. every morning and have their rooms ready for inspection at 7 a.m., and that they must not speak to the media. “Some soldiers believe this is […]

The big talk last week  was the al-Sadr had fled the country and was not an influence anymore. Of course people like CNN’s Michael Ware said that is far from the truth. Well once again it looks like the military was wrong and the others were right: The leader of Iraq’s biggest Shiite militia complained […]

CNN just reported that the Army Chief of Staff said he had no idea of the problems at Walter Reed (why do I have problems buying that?). They also reported that the Army will be working “stringently” to correct the problems. Interesting that he had no idea what was going on right across the street.
