Unpredictable. Unbelievable. Unhinged. Rachel Marsden, the former Canadian Ann Coulter wannabe once featured on Red Eye, has taken another bizarre turn. Is she sleezing it up again with the founder of Wikipedia? Sending nude pics to newspapers again? Harrassing more ex boy toys? Nope, nope, and nope.
It seems she’s turned on her old mentor, [...]

I was emailed a link to an ‘article’ over on Fox News’ web site entitled “Mainstream Media Passes on Tea Parties.” Coincidentally, I happened to listen to NPR’s “All Things Considered” and CNN for well over 3 hours Wednesday evening during a long trip. Both sources covered the tea parties extensively.
So, I took the bait [...]

Fox News is out of the news business. There are numerous examples but none clearer than crackpot Glenn Beck who has turned the concept of thoughtful political analysis on its head.
To claw way to the top of the right-wing media motor mouth heap you’ve got to be a showman. Rush Limbaugh earned a name [...]

I knew when I came across the news article “Republicans slam Barack Obama over ‘American arrogance’ speech” that it would be the Fox News meme of the day. Sure, enough. “Fair and balanced” Fox News parroted it on cue.
News Hounds picked up Sean Hannity sharing this meme with fellow Foxy Mike Huckabee. You can watch [...]

When you think of the musing of the far right one topic you think is sacrosanct is praise for the troops fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan against Muslim terrorists and extremists. Well, not exactly in the case of Red Eye, Fox News’ late night experiment in hip bad taste. That rule only applies to American [...]

Conservatives and gay rights are usually at odds so it’s no surprise right-wing Fox News personalities, past and present, were well represented on the GLAAD “Worst of 2008″ list.
Award winners include Bill O’Reilly, Greg Gutfeld, John Gibson, and Laura Ingraham.
Who said hate doesn’t have it’s rewards?

You’d think a network that’s as “fair and balanced” as Fox News claims to be wouldn’t be crawling so much with conservative hosts.
Gutfield shows up once in a while on Fox & Friends. Each time I’ve witnessed him on the show he’s been brought in to mock the lefty of the moment Fox & [...]

I was channel surfing when I saw Keith Olbermann doing what he does most nights: give O’Reilly a “Worst Person in the World” award. I try to avoid this low hanging fruit unless I’m in a pinch to post something. However, this time is different.
Because it’s more than just Olbermann pointing out Bill’s usual hypocrisies [...]

The title of this video on Fox News’ web site is “Hannity & Gutfeld Has a Nice Ring.” That grabbed my attention because this nightmarish combination is something I never pondered. By the way, with all due respect to Greg Gutfeld, that name combo rolls off the tongue like thumb tacks. Though I have to [...]

I know that I’m getting redundant in that I just blogged on Red Eye’s Greg Gutfeld, desperate comedian. However, I just witnessed this example of his angry Dennis Miller imitation which crosses the line into offensive because at the heart of Greg’s stand-up act is the fact he’s more enraged than he is funny, a [...]
