Mike Wallace is dead. Growing up, I’d spend the summer away from Dubai at my grandparents’ home in Louisiana. Sunday nights were back to back Murder She Wrote and 60 Minutes. Many conservatives would accuse Mike Wallace and 60 Minutes of a liberal view point and shading stories to match their world view. Growing up, 60 Minutes was, to me, journalism done right. They asked | Read More »
I really continue to be stunned by the number of reporters I interact with on a daily basis who really have no idea what conservatives are thinking, reading, etc. I’m always happy to answer those questions.

Nonetheless, they are upset Obama’s pay to play marketing operation continues. Veteran CBS newsman Bill Plante was one of the most vocal critics, questioning the White House’s handling of Wednesday night’s second swearing in – which | Read More »

After spending thousands of words to claim God is a proponent of gay marriage, Newsweek works hard to paint a traitor as a hero. Meet Thomas Tamm. Mr. Tamm is the man | Read More »
Jay Carney, Time Magazine’s D.C. Bureau Chief, will become Communications Director for Joe Biden. The Politico sums it up best, writing Carney, a Yale graduate, is known as a middle-of-the-road, well-connected journalist with establishment instincts.
