Fierce Planet Posted on April 29, 2018 by jnfrApril 29, 2018

I have read the annotated transcript of Michelle Wolf’s set last night at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner. I am definitely with those who think the snowflakes in the media need to stop whining about her. She spoke some plain truth but nothing that was unusually mean for one of these speeches. I wanted to especially highlight this bit, for pure truth. To the assembled media: You guys are obsessed with Trump. Did you used to date him? Because you pretend like you hate him, but I think you love him. I think what no one in this room wants … Continue reading →

“The Clear Loser Is ABC”

Fierce Planet Posted on April 17, 2008 by jnfrApril 17, 2008

For the first 52 minutes of the two-hour, commercial-crammed show, Gibson and Stephanopoulos dwelled entirely … Continue reading →

Reality strikes Fox News

Fierce Planet Posted on March 27, 2007 by jnfrMarch 27, 2007

I’m sure this is what Fox News meant to use as their caption: With apologies to Crooks and Liars. UPDATE: Dems win the Senate vote on the withdrawal language.
