Piers Morgan Trashes Sarah Palin in Interview With Gabby Giffords' Husband
*
Noel Sheppard, at NewsBusters:

“Although it's long been proved that Sarah Palin and so-called violent political rhetoric had absolutely nothing to do with January's tragic shootings in Tucson, Arizona, CNN's Piers Morgan felt it was necessary to bring her up during Wednesday's interview with Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords' (D-Ariz.) husband. For his part, astronaut Mark Kelly was only too happy to take the bait and run with it...”

CNN's Kurtz beclowns himself while trying to cheap shot Gov. Palin

Health care mandates are distinctly different from auto insurance mandates
*
NewsBuster Noel Sheppard caught CNN's Howard Kurtz in the act of trying to cheap-shot Governor Palin with a tweet:

Unfortunately, the joke's on him for his mocking of the former vice presidential candidate conveyed to his 73,000 followers his own total ignorance of insurance mandates:

How addle-minded.

What folks like Kurtz conveniently ignore is states that have car insurance mandates don't require all of their citizens to own cars.

As such, it is not a mandate to purchase car insurance. It is a mandate to purchase car insurance only if you own and drive an automobile.

This is a distinction media members like Kurtz for some reason can't grapple with.

Beyond this, in states with such requirements, the car owner is mandated to purchase liability insurance only. This insures that if the driver inflicts medical or property damage upon another individual with his/her automobile, he/she has insurance to cover those damages.

However, states do not require car owners to purchase collision or comprehensive insurance which covers damages to one's own health and property.

This is another important distinction, for the individual mandate associated with ObamaCare is a requirement for people to insure health risks to themselves not others.

NB: HuffPo silent on Maher's status after vulgar attacks on Palin

Which is worse: calling a man a 'commie punk' or a woman a 'c---'?
*
Huffington Post has banned Andrew Breitbart's articles at its front page, but the leftist website remains curiously silent on the status of Bill Maher, who is one of its regular contributors. Maher has made several below-the-sewer references to Sarah Palin recently, while Bretbart's apparent offense was to call former Obama green czar Van Jones a "commie punk." Most of what Maher called Gov. Palin is too vulgar to be quoted on a family-friendly blog.

The obvious double standard here has motivated NewsBusters associate editor Noel Sheppard to send no less than three emails to HuffPo founder Arianna Huffington and editor Roy Sekoff Tuesday and Wednesday. Sheppard reports that he still has not received a reply:

Of course, I realize Arianna et al are in a very tough spot. They made what was clearly an absurd statement about "tenets of debate and civil discourse we have strived for since the day we launched" when everyone in the industry knows their website is filled with hateful rhetoric and ad hominem attacks against conservatives on almost a daily basis.

The laughter at Ruiz's statement throughout the blogosphere on both sides of the aisle was deafening.

Complicating matters further was one of their popular contributors the day after Breitbart was canned making a vulgar slur at Palin and another one nine days later.

As most people know, Huffington has been friends with Maher for years. She was a regular guest on his Comedy Central program "Politically Incorrect" appearing in an ongoing gag with Al Franken called "Politics Makes Strange Bedfellows."

Maybe more importantly, Maher is a darling of the Left. Would Huffington dare do anything to him like she did to Breitbart?

Unfortunately, not doing so totally invalidates the reason given by Ruiz for Breitbart's demotion.

No wonder I didn't get any replies to my email messages as I'm sure these folks hope this matter is going to just go away as quickly as possible - but they shouldn't count on it.

Sheppard concludes that the continued silence on this hypocrisy by those in charge at HuffPo will only serve to "reduce whatever journalistic integrity and credibility they claim to strive for, potentially leading AOL and its shareholders to seriously question their investment."

Crazy Chris Matthews goes for a twofer...

...as MSNBC leans forward and trips over an ugly stick
*
More Palin derangement from MSNBC's loosest cannon (he is, now that Olbermann's gone to Gore some oxen elephants):

MSNBC's Chris Matthews on Wednesday decided to wade into the Rick Santorum-Sarah Palin-CPAC dust-up by cherry-picking what the former Pennsylvania Senator told S.E. Cupp on Glenn Beck's online program the day before.

Not surprisingly, by presenting only his biased and abbreviated side of the story, the "Hardball" host attacked both Palin and Santorum...

[...]

Matthews and Company chose to air only fifteen seconds of a 44 second video. They apparently didn't have an additional 29 seconds of air time for "Hardball" viewers to see Santorum's entire response to Cupp's question...

[...]

Matthews, being the spectacular investigative journalist he's known to be, chose not to inform his small viewership of this fact, or that this was the third year in a row that Palin turned down an invitation from CPAC.

Such inconvenient truths would have gotten in the way of his ability to besmirch and degrade two conservatives in one fell swoop.

[More]

NewsBusters Noel Sheppard says we should just imagine how ugly Matthews will get when the 2012 primaries get into full swing. We don't know, for it's hard to imagine the "civility" of Matthews and MSNBC getting much uglier. But as for it getting more unhinged and probably certifiable, not much imagination is needed. The cheese fell off Matthews' cracker long ago.

Maddow explains why she fell for Palin/Egypt hoax

She blames -- wait for it -- Glenn Beck!
*
We posted Tuesday about how MSPDS host Rachel Maddow, whom the left touts as "brilliant" (like Bill Clinton, she's a Rhodes scholar), fell hook, line and sinker Monday for an internet spoof by a satirical website that Gov. Sarah Palin was advocating an attack on Egypt.

Maddow took 24 hours to come up with an excuse, and, as Noel Sheppard reports, on Tuesday's program explained that it was all conservatives' fault, in particular that diabolical Glenn Beck:

And that was Maddow’s explanation for getting duped by a satirical website: in her view, conservatives – especially Glenn Beck – are saying all kinds of crazy things. As a result, it’s become difficult for her to know what’s real and what’s a spoof.

If this is the case, then maybe she should stop reporting on what conservatives are saying.

If she can no longer discern between fact and fiction, serious commentary and satire, she can’t possibly be trusted or taken seriously about anything, for who knows what her next source will be and whether or not it’s actually legitimate.

Maybe more importantly, how can anyone on television – Rhodes scholar or not! – be deserving of the public’s trust if she blames her own mistakes on others not at all involved in her program?

Sadly, this is par for the course on MSNBC as well as other liberal media outlets.

These are the same people that disgustingly blamed conservatives for the shooting of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) last month. They’re used to pointing fingers at others without merit.

Leftists have been mocking University of Idaho graduate Sarah Palin for two years for biting down on a prank by two Canadian DJs pretending to be French President Nicolas Sarkozy, claiming it makes her dumb as a rock. By their thinking, then, Rhodes Scholar Rachel Maddow, because she fell for an internet spoof, should be dumb as a bag of dirt.

After all, the DJs got Gov. Palin's telephone number and called her, putting the 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate on the spot. But Maddow and her producers, on their own initiative, found the spoof story and ran with it without bothering to take a couple of seconds to do a Google search to verify the story. So by the left's own standards, Sarah Palin is not just smarter than the average Grizzly Bear, she's just as smart -- if not smarter -- than a Rhodes Scholar.

NewsBusters: 'Sarah Palin's Alaska' Rumored to Get Second Season (Updated)

A larger audience than Bravo's "Housewives" or most other cable shows
*
Moonbat bloggers and other leftist media outlets have been trying to paint "Sarah Palin's Alaska" as a flop, but TLC seems to be delighted with the series' ratings. And it's rumored that network executives are discussing a possible second season with Governor Palin. NewsBusters Associate Editor Noel Sheppard writes:

The gossip website Popeater reported Tuesday:

"3.066 million people turned in last week to see her episode with Kate Gosselin," a TLC insider tells me. "That is more people than are watching Bravo's 'Housewives' series or most other cable shows. For sure the network is doing everything it possibly can to convince Sarah to do another season, but at the end of the day it looks like it will all come down to money."

[...]

As for Palin, who Popeater believes is currently making more than $250,000 per episode, "when the show debuted to over 4.96 million viewers, insiders tell me she started talking about a new deal right away."

Popeater believes Palin could be looking at a significant raise to as much as $1 million an episode.

[More]

Update: Palin aide Rebecca Mansour says Popeater is full of... pop:

Rule of thumb: anything "PopEater" reports about Sarah Palin is completely made up -- as in fabricated out of thin air.

Which makes sense because, as Allah phrases it:

But … doesn’t she have something else she’s supposed to do next year? Or is the plan to somehow squeeze the tapings in between primaries?

NewsBusters Interview: John Ziegler

All bets are off when it comes to attacking Gov. Palin
*
NewsBusters associate editor Noel Sheppard recently interviewed film maker John Ziegler on the release of an expanded version of his documentary Media Malpractice: How Obama Got Elected and Palin was Targeted. Here is an excerpt:

NB: You've added 45 minutes of new footage from the original film. What can viewers expect?

JZ: We took a lot of the episodes that occurred in relation to the film after its original release and I provide commentary of what really happened behind the scenes. We show clips and I tell some great stories involving Matt Lauer, Barbara Walters, Joy Behar, Norah O'Donnell among others. We also tell the real story of what happened when I was arrested at the USC journalism award ceremony where Katie Couric was honored for her bogus Sarah Palin interview.

NB: You had an interesting interview with Kathleen Parker and Eliot Spitzer last week. Tell us about that.

JZ: Very bizarre. I called Parker out on her "endorsing" Obama and she flat out lied and claimed she never did so. That kind of shocked me, but not as much as what happened when I also called her out on being part of the "assassination" of Palin 1.0 as I refer to her pre-Fox persona. She was so off guard that I think she panicked and made the really strange statement that she "led" the assassination of Palin. She practically bragged about it, which is stunning considering she is supposedly the only full-time "conservative" on CNN, which says more about the inherent bias in the media than just about anything else.

NB: How do you think the coverage of Sarah Palin has changed since the 2008 elections?

JZ: Well, among certain circles, mostly on MSNBC and in the entertainment world, it has actually gotten worse as the dam has totally broken and it has become accepted that all bets are off when it comes to attacking her.

But the most important change is that Palin and the media now have a weirdly symbiotic relationship wherein they need each other. If the entire media complex decided tomorrow to stop covering her, she would have greatly reduced impact, but they would never do that because she is so good for their ratings.

I also think the success of Bristol on Dancing with the Stars has changed things a bit, once again to her advantage, as millions of nonpolitical people get to see the Palins in a mostly positive light.

Sarah Palin was right: Krugman calls for 'Death Panels'

*
Lefty economist Paul Krugman would never overtly admit that Sarah palin has been right all along about Death Panels, but his Freudian slip on network television Sunday was tantamount to such an admission. NewsBuster Noel Sheppard reports:

Although he was likely taking a swipe at former governor Sarah Palin with the reference, Paul Krugman on Sunday recommended "death panels" as a means of helping to balance the federal budget.

In a Roundtable discussion on ABC's "This Week," the New York Times columnist said of what recently came out of the President's deficit commission, "Some years down the pike, we're going to get the real solution, which is going to be a combination of death panels and sales taxes"

KRUGMAN: No. Some years down the pike, we're going to get the real solution, which is going to be a combination of death panels and sales taxes. It's going to be that we're actually going to take Medicare under control, and we're going to have to get some additional revenue, probably from a VAT. But it's not going to happen now.

After he realized what he had said, Krugman later tried to clarify his remarks:

By trying to clarify, Krugman seems to be digging himself deeper into a hole, for "how much we’re willing to spend for extreme care" was part of Sarah Palin's point when she first wrote about this at Facebook in August 2009.

[...]

In the end, Krugman's attempt at being "deliberately provocative" was really him saying in front of the cameras what Palin and others warned was the danger of allowing further government intrusion into healthcare.

If only such dangers were better explained to the public before Congress voted on this bill in March.

Rush is all over this.

We love the smell of liberal hubris in the morning. It smells like... vindication!

GOP strategist schools Matthews on Gov. Palin's qualifications

*
Journolist lives, although under a new name that shall not be revealed. The lamestream media isn't straying far from the script. Case in point: whenever a Republican appears on a cable news panel, the liberal host is now obligated to ask the panelist whether Sarah Palin is "qualified to be president." NewsBuster Noel Sheppard reports that Chris Matthews must have expected GOP strategist Ron Christie to dodge the issue on Tuesday's "Hardball":

Much to the MSNBC host's surprise, Christie not only said she was, but also pointed out, "She's certainly had a whole heck of a lot more experience than a particular junior senator from Illinois":

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Notice how quickly Matthews cuts off Christie and goes to his other guest when the Republican starts talking about Obama's failure on the economy. That's one of the many things the left doesn't want to discuss these days, so they always try to steer any discussion away from that topic.

Noel Sheppard: Matthews Accuses Palin of Aiding and Abetting Terry Jones

*
Not that we needed further proof, but here it is. Chris Matthews and MSNBC are hopelessly delusional when it comes to anything Sarah Palin says or does. NewsBusters Associate Editor Noel Sheppard catches "Tweety" in a Big Lie on his "Nutball" program on MSDNC:

Chris Matthews on Thursday accused Sarah Palin of aiding and abetting Pastor Terry Jones, the man threatening to burn Korans on Saturday's ninth anniversary of 9/11.

For days, Matthews and his colleagues on MSNBC have been calling upon Republicans to speak out against Jones.

On Wednesday, the former Alaska governor did exactly that at her Facebook page and at Twitter.

But this wasn't enough for Matthews who repeatedly on the 5PM installment of "Hardball" attacked Palin for being too "soft" in her admonishment of Jones, and actually accused her of giving the Pastor the linkage between burning Korans and the controversy surrounding the Ground Zero mosque.

[...]

MATTHEWS: So, is Sarah Palin one of the 50 crazy people in the mosque, or what?

How disgraceful!

SANCHEZ: I think what is interesting is that Sarah Palin is brought up again. She puts a tweet out there. She starts talking about it, and everybody wants to say she has directed and shaped this debate.

MATTHEWS: "People have a constitutional right to burn a Koran if they want to, but doing so is insensitive" -- I would say it`s more than insensitive -- "and an unnecessary provocation."

That`s pretty soft language compared to the way she talked about the mosque.

Actually, why don't we look at Palin's entire posting at Facebook:

Book burning is antithetical to American ideals. People have a constitutional right to burn a Koran if they want to, but doing so is insensitive and an unnecessary provocation - much like building a mosque at Ground Zero.

I would hope that Pastor Terry Jones and his supporters will consider the ramifications of their planned book-burning event. It will feed the fire of caustic rhetoric and appear as nothing more than mean-spirited religious intolerance. Don't feed that fire. If your ultimate point is to prove that the Christian teachings of mercy, justice, freedom, and equality provide the foundation on which our country stands, then your tactic to prove this point is totally counter-productive.

Our nation was founded in part by those fleeing religious persecution. Freedom of religion is integral to our charters of liberty. We don't need to agree with each other on theological matters, but tolerating each other without unnecessarily provoking strife is how we ensure a civil society. In this as in all things, we should remember the Golden Rule. Isn't that what the Ground Zero mosque debate has been about?

That seems like a pretty strong condemnation of Jones's plan, doesn't it? Yet Matthews never once read the entire thing to his viewers. Instead, he continued with his pathetic plot:

[...]

SANCHEZ: But why pick out Sarah Palin? I guess that`s my point.

MATTHEWS: Because I`m looking at the news that came in this morning. And, all of a sudden, she`s getting her fingers into this thing.

Your thoughts, Steve.

I think it`s incredible that she would be so soft -- taking such a soft line on this guy burning the Koran, because you never attack to the right when you`re on the right. That`s what I think is going on here.

Excuse me! Matthews and his network have been criticizing Republicans for not speaking out against this guy. Now that some have, he accuses them of aiding and abetting the Pastor!

How pathetic:

SANCHEZ: But for what political purpose? That`s what I`m saying.

(CROSSTALK)

MATTHEWS: -- with as far out, with as far out with the fringe as she can, because that`s her base.

(CROSSTALK)

STEVE MCMAHON, DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST: That`s right. It`s not just her base. It`s the people that are taking over the party. It`s the Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh --

MATTHEWS: You can`t hurt by being friendly with the right.

MCMAHON: --. base of the Republican Party.

Exactly. You cannot be too far right, because especially if you`re thinking about running for president or if you want to have a controversial talk show on FOX, you need to do these things. And they generate headlines. They get people like us talking. And it works for Sarah Palin, who wants to be an entertainer and a provocateur.

I`m not sure it works very well if she wants to be the president of the United States.

MATTHEWS: Do you think that`s a statement you could live with, Leslie, people have a constitutional right to burn a Koran if they want to? Do you like the phraseology there? People have a constitutional right to burn a Koran if they want to? Do you like that...

The hypocrisy on display here was astonishing. For weeks, folks like Matthews have been telling the American people that the backers of the Ground Zero mosque have a Constitutional right to build it there, and this supersedes the public's overwhelming opposition.

By contrast, the conservative position has been to recognize the Constitutionality in play while questioning the wisdom of doing something that would offend so many Americans.

As such, Palin - and Boehner... - were making the exact same argument concerning Jones: he has the right to burn these Korans, but they wish he wouldn't.

Not only didn't Matthews see the consistency in these positions, he was the one being inconsistent by now claiming Jones's Constitutional rights were irrelevant and represented a "soft" position on Palin's part.

[...]

I ask you: do you need a better example of liberal media bias?

Matthews and his colleagues complain for days that Republicans aren't doing anything to stop Jones from burning Korans on Saturday. Two top GOP figures do, and they're accused of helping the Pastor.

Sarah Palin, or any other Republican who is anything less than a DNC collaborator, will never get fair treatment at MSDNC. Matthews, like the other unhinged leftist program hosts there, are so deep into the tank for the Democrat Party that even a nuclear submarine couldn't approach them, lest its hull be crushed by the unbearable pressure of leftist hypocrisy.

WaPo's Marcus claims Sarah Palin Is 'homophobic'

*
From NewsBusters Associate Editor Noel Sheppard:

The lengths liberals will go to trash Sarah Palin knows no bounds.

On Friday, the Washington Post's Ruth Marcus actually accused the former Alaska governor of being homophobic for calling reporters "limp" and "impotent."

As NewsBusters reported Thursday, Palin, while on Sean Hannity's radio program the day before, bashed "impotent, limp and gutless reporters [that] take anonymous sources and cite them as being factual references."

From this, Marcus divined the following utter nonsense:

The Vanity Fair writer, Michael Joseph Gross, is gay, which makes matters worse -- conjuring the stereotype of "limp-wristed." But whatever the sexual orientation of the offending reporter, Palin should not have been questioning his manhood.

[...]

To begin with, Palin never mentioned Vanity Fair or Gross's name, nor did Hannity. In fact, their discussion about the media was precipitated by the former Alaska governor saying how poorly written a recent CQ Politics piece about her was.

As such, it's a stretch on Marcus's part to claim Palin was specifically talking about Gross.

[...]

This now officially puts Marcus in the same category as MSNBC's Ed Schultz who last month said Palin was sexist for suggesting Barack Obama lacked cojones when it comes to illegal immigration.

Marcus seems to be mostly just echoing criticism of Gov. Palin which was expressed in The Advocate, a gay publication which accused the governor of "gay baiting," over the weekend. Christopher R. Barron, board Chairman of the GOProud, a gay conservative group, answered The Advocate in a press release, saying:

“It is The Advocate, not Sarah Palin, who is guilty of ‘gay-baiting.’ I don’t think most people associate the words ‘impotent,’ ‘limp,’ or ‘gutless’ with being gay – I know I certainly don’t. If the folks at The Advocate think these words are euphemisms for being gay or lesbian then I think that speaks volumes about their own internalized homophobia.”

Tammy Bruce also answered The Advocate's attack on the 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate:

"There are a few things to glean from this sort of ridiculous attack-including confirmation of how panicked the left is at losing their own base. Palin's crossover appeal to most segments of the American public is now obvious. The left, trying to stem the hemorrhaging of their own base, can't persuade based on the issues so they continue with a well-worn tradition of crying wolf in the effort to keep their subject from straying from the Leftist plantation."

Marcus and the Washington Post have a two-year history of trashing Gov. Palin in print.

NewsBusters: Schultz calls 'cojones' remark 'sexist.' No, really...

*
NewsBuster Noel Sheppard reports that moonbat MSNBC host Ed Schultz, apparently with a straight face, claimed that Sarah Palin's "cojones" remark was a "sexist" attack on President Obama:

Schultz took exception to this comment in a fashion destined to leave many readers gasping for air in hysterics...

[...]

Honestly, the lengths folks on MSNBC will go to trash this woman while defending the president they helped get elected is astounding.

Whether the word is "balls" or "cojones," most every dictionary in existence offers a meaning which has more to do with attitude than body parts. Sheppard's example is from dictionary.com:

a. boldness; courage; brashness.

This has become a very common term for courage with a lack thereof indicating cowardice.

[...]

As such, to suggest this was sexist on Palin's part indicates a lack of inteligencia and sinceridad on Schultz's part.

It would be nothing short of astounding that MSNBC allowed Schultz to accuse Gov. Palin of sexism were it not for the fact that hypocrisy is a prerequisite for liberalism. And MSNBC is about as hypocritical and as liberal as it gets. The Obama-loving, Palin-hating network's hosts and guests have launched many a sexist attack against the 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate. For just a few examples, look here, here and here.

Noel Sheppard: Will the media elites ever learn?

*
NewsBusters Associate Editor Noel Sheppard finds it remarkable that on the same day news broke of the JournoGate scandal, revealing the smoking gun which provided proof that leftist "journalists" conspired to destroy Sarah Palin, Politico's Roger Simon declared she's at the top of the Republican Party. Simon, unlike the JournoListers, is an old school real journalist with an actual record of accomplishments. The irony of it all was not lost on Sheppard, who detected a pattern and wonders if the leftist media types will ever learn:

Media elites have been attacking the intellectual capacity of Republican presidential candidates for years. According to them, Dwight Eisenhower, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, and George W. Bush were all too stupid to be Commander in Chief.

But what these so-called journalists have been missing for so many years is that most Americans don't have college degrees and don't necessarily identify with those that do. According to the Census Bureau, only 27 percent of our citizens has a bachelor's degree; only ten percent has a masters or doctorate.

Yet, the elites in the media keep wondering why so-called "intellectuals" typically fare poorly at the polls.

Despite such lack of success, press members continue to bash the intelligence quotients of those on the right.

In 2008, it was Palin's turn, and they've been doing it ever since. These folks had a field day recently with the former governor's new word "refudiate"

To be sure, the attacks on her character, along with a number of disturbingly dishonest press tactics, got Barack Obama elected in November 2008. But in the long run this strategy might have backfired - and badly.

After approaching 24 months of incessant Palin bashing by the media, as Simon noted, her popularity continues to rise. At the same time, polls show Obama and the Democrats hitting new favorability lows.

Irrespective of the press's support for a failing administration, Americans seem weary of this hopey changey thing.

Which bring us to the moral of the story: the more the media denigrate a conservative's intelligence, the more popular he or she becomes.

Noel Sheppard:

"According to a focus group done by pollster Frank Luntz, folks that voted for Barack Obama liked the recent attack on Sarah Palin done by the cartoon series 'Family Guy.' Amazing. So, the demonizing of a former governor by America's media have made some folks on the Left so hateful of her that they now think it's acceptable to make jokes about her kids. Not only that, they now don't even feel ANY compassion for her handicapped child... Now forgive me, but I have to go wash my hands and disinfect my keyboard; working on this piece has made me ill."

Letterman apologizes to staff, wife and Sarah... insincerely

- by upinak

Noel Shepherd reports that Dirty Dave rather awkwardly tried to appear sincere while making several apologies on his show Monday night... after joking about the situation in his opening monologue:



After seeing this youtube clip, we're still not impressed. He was not sincere in his apologies to anyone, including his wife Regina. And it was obvious he wasn't sincerely apologizing to Sarah (who had already accepted his previous aplology) either. This dirty old man should just get off the TV and go away.
