How am I supposed to know if global warming is a worldwide crisis or not? I’m a journalist, not a scientist. All I know is what I read in the papers. And what I just read in the Wall Street Journal won’t make the global warming true believers too happy. The piece I read is…
One of my all time favorite television characters is Michael Scott from The Office (back when the show was still funny). The self-centered and incompetent, though well-meaning office manager was portrayed masterfully by actor Steve Carell. One of the many trademarks of the character was his internal need to demonstrate to his subordinates that he…
Thursday morning, it was announced that ABC News’ Brian Ross conducted an interview last week with Newt Gingrich’s ex-wife, Marianne Gingrich. Marianne was the second wife of the former Speaker of the House. The two had a well-publicized, messy divorce after Newt began an affair with his current wife, Callista, in the mid 1990s. Marianne…

He expressed annoyance with their refusal to accept a Democrat doing something good for the country, and he complained that “they won’t even give him a chance.” It’s an argument that…
Not long ago, Bill O’Reilly asked me if I thought it was possible for the so-called mainstream media to cover the presidential campaign fairly. Note, he didn’t ask if I thought reporters would be fair; he asked if I thought it was possible that they could be fair. When Bill asks a question that way,…
If I had to write a list of the most bone-headed media indictments of my lifetime, toward the top of the list would be Sarah Palin’s suggested involvement in the Gabrielle Giffords shooting. As many will recall, almost immediately after Jared Lee Loughner opened fire at a January event put on by the Democratic congresswoman,…
