NY1: 24-hour New York news and nothing on Anthony Weiner?
By: barrypopik (Diary) | May 30th at 04:41 AM |
Greetings from New York City. Yeah, I’m back during the Memorial Day Weekend as the kids see the relatives.

By: barrypopik (Diary) | May 25th at 10:22 PM |
I’m watching the opening of MSNBC’s The Ed Show right now (while eating dinner), and he’s apologizing for calling Laura Ingraham a slut. Thomas Roberts is subbing as host. One error, Ed? It’s your whole shtick! Way back on May 13, 2011, I posted here, “MSNBC’s Ed Schultz must go.” I noticed the return of the “Psycho Talk” segment–Republicans were always the psychos.

By: barrypopik (Diary) | May 17th at 02:05 AM |

I’m known–if I’m known at all–for solving the origin of New York City’s nickname “the Big Apple” and for my amazingly unsuccessful 20-year effort to honor the | Read More »
