CBS Decides To Investigate Wuhan Institute Lab-Leak … To Blame Trump.

March 19, 2023 Steve MacDonald

CBS got an inch in its pants to follow the lab-leak breadcrumbs, but not to Wuhan, China, and the Institute of Virology. Not exactly. The lab leak theory has, for lack of a better term, leaked, and when you can no longer hide the truth, job one is to affix blame.

Stopped Clock Charles Barkley on Race Relations and Political Power (and it’s brilliant!)

April 4, 2021 Steve MacDonald

Charles Barkley knows basketball and he gets paid a lot to talk about it. I know little to nothing about Basketball beyond my good fortune at having been able to watch the Larry-Bird Celtics dominate the game. So, I don’t talk basketball I stick to politics. Barkley doesn’t always stick to his sport and the outcome is a jump ball.

BlogQuestion of the Day – with this overt display of racism, should CBS start lawyering up?

July 16, 2020 Skip

We are starting to become “life by race quotas” – no more will we have the traditional “hard work, grit, and entrepreneurial spirit” as the road to success in life. Sadly, the insanity that the Left has been brewing in the Socialist witches cauldron has spurted out from the colleges and into the rest of our lives.

June 5, 2020 Steve MacDonald

The unbiased media invested nearly 12 hours of airtime to protests over the wrongful death of George Floyd. But what about the wrongful deaths of those killed in the riots that followed? Combined, the three major networks could only find four minutes to talk about those tragedies.

November 13, 2019 Steve MacDonald

The Amy Robach tape is now a part of Jeffrey Epstein Media Watchdog lore. ABC Spiked Amy’s story to protect the rich and powerful then ratted out Ashley Bianco as the leaker. CBS, where she was employed, fired her. But Project Veritas says Bianco isn’t the leaker and ABC is losing its hivemind.

November 8, 2019November 8, 2019 Steve MacDonald

So much for the media’s narrative about the sacred whistleblower. A CBS staffer has been fired after ABC identified them as the source of the leaked Amy Robach footage. The clip in which she shares her feelings about her ‘Jeffrey Epstein is a serial pedophile story’ getting spiked.

Another “Political Campaign Stunt” By Romney

September 26, 2018November 5, 2012 Rick Olson

“It seems that the first victim of an Obama campaign is the truth.” —Mitt Romney

Throughout this campaign, there is one issue Mitt Romney has not talked about. What the Romney has not talked about is his profound generosity over many, many years to so many people. Mitt has not only given of himself personally, but he has given his time and a significant amount of his wealth to truly help others in need.

We have seen report after report of others (Not those in the Romney Camp) going forth to the media and speaking of how Mitt and his family have been so exceedingly generous to so many for more than 40 years. Let me say that again. Mitt and his family have been so exceedingly generous to so many for more than 40 years.

Gingrich Soundbite Smackdown

September 26, 2018November 13, 2011 Steve MacDonald

Newt Gingrich is definitely on a roll. And while I completely disagree with him on Global warming, (and have endorsed someone else) it warms my heart to see him standing at the cafeteria line of ideas with the graduates of the Left-wing School of Journalism, taking the crap sandwich they are trying to hand him, and stuffing into their pompous little pie holes.
