Dylan Byers of Politico Defends Media Matters While Ignoring Herman Cain
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | February 13th at 03:35 PM |
We should not be surprised Dylan Byers is defending Media Matters over at the Politico. I’m sure he does not want the spotlight shifting to him and the Politico for continually running Media Matters generated hit jobs. Byers himself cited Media Maters bashing Dana Loesch. He repurposed a Media Matters hit job on George Will recently too. He makes sure we all see both Greg | Read More »

One of the things Ben Smith wrote was: A leading conservative blogger and commentator, Erick Erickson, said he shifted his stance in a key Senate race because the company that publishes his RedState.com is “socially connected” to former Virginia Senator George Allen. | Read More »
Why Is Anyone Surprised by This Dave Weigel Business?
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | June 25th at 04:59 PM |
You can read Ben Smith’s post here at the Politico on Dave Weigel. A few points from me: 1. It is no surprise to me that Ben Smith is on Journolist too.

By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 20th at 12:52 PM |
It’s great that members of the mainstream media are now getting in on the act and admitting that Obama did support infanticide in the Illinois State Senate. Check out Ben’s post here. What? Don’t see the admission from Ben that Obama did support infanticide? Go read it again. That Smith is slinging Obama’s mud against Jill Stanek is proof positive and a total admission that | Read More »
