FULL TITLE: Lena Dunham compares President Trump to church shooter Dylann Roof and calls him a 'racist with untreated mental illness' after NFL attacks Lena Dunham has come under fire after comparing President Donald Trump to mass murderer Dylann Roof in response to his repeated attacks on the NFL. 'Not only is he a racist but he's a racist with untreated mental illness. So under diff circumstances he's Dylann Roof,' wrote Dunham on Twitter.

Lena Dunham is calling out American Airlines after the actress claimed to have overheard two apparent employees engaged in "transphobic talk." The "Girls" creator said her flight on another airline was delayed for hours Wednesday at New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport. Dunham, 31, wrote that the "worst part of this night" waiting at the airport came when she overheard two American Airlines' "attendants having a transphobic talk." "At this moment in history we should be teaching our employees about love and inclusivity @AmericanAir," she added in a subsequent tweet. "That was worst part of this night." Dunham...

Abortion activist and actress Lena Dunham has been pretty quiet online since Donald Trump won the presidential election last Tuesday. Dunham, her friends at Planned Parenthood and many others were shocked when pro-abortion Democrat Hillary Clinton lost to Trump last Tuesday. A few days ago, Dunham broke her silence by posting a column on her website describing her reaction to the election. “After working on the Clinton campaign for eighteen months, I was ready to celebrate, and sure that by nightfall I’d be knocking back glasses of champagne and creating a story to tell my unborn children,” she wrote. “Maybe...

I woke up on Election Day like a bride: rosy, thrilled, a little controlling about just how MY perfect day would be spent. After working on the Clinton campaign for eighteen months, I was ready to celebrate, and sure that by nightfall I'd be knocking back glasses of champagne and creating a story to tell my unborn children. Maybe I'd even get close enough to Hillary Clinton to hug her, to whisper "Thank you." I had dreamed about it every night for the last two weeks. At a certain point it became clear something had gone horribly wrong. Celebrants' faces...

Sarah Palin is lashing out at the media for how it has covered the sexual abuse revelations about "19 Kids And Counting" star Josh Duggar while giving "Girls" star Lena Dunham a free pass. Writing on her Facebook page, Palin compared the media storm over Duggar, whose parents confirmed on Fox News this week that he had “improperly touched" some of his sisters when he was a teenager, to that of Dunham, who wrote in her book "Not That Kind of Girl" that, as a 7-year-old child, she gave candy to her 1-year-old sister in exchange for kisses and a...

There are similarities and some stark differences between the debut of the fourth season of HBO’s Girls on Sunday and the Season 3 launch last year. In the similarities category, series creator Lena Dunham was up for Golden Globes awards both this year and last year with no wins either time. In both cases, Girls debuted against the Golden Globes. In the difference category, last year saw the Season 3 of Girls premiering at 10 PM after the debut of the heavily promoted True Detective. That wasn’t the case this year and it showed – with Girls as well as...

Cybersecurity experts have given a detailed outline to the FBI about the hack attack against Sony Pictures, insisting it was not the work of North Korea but a group of current and former employees who shared a 'mutual hatred' for the company. While the FBI and Sony have announced they believe Pyongyang carried out the hack - claims that were denied by leader Kim Jong-un - independent security officials have been coming forward for the past week saying most of the evidence points to an inside job. Silicon Valley security firm Norse, which provides intelligence to companies to prevent their...

Grace Dunham, the younger sister of Lena Dunham appears to have finally responded on Twitter to claims that she was molested as a child by the Girls creator. They appear to address a claim by right-wing website Truth Revolt last week, accusing her older sister of sexual abuse. The website cited an excerpt Lena Dunham's recently-published collection of personal essays 'Not That Kind of Girl' as 'unsettling' and 'disturbing'. In the extract Lena writes about looking at her one-year-old sister's vagina out of curiosity when she was seven. Today her Grace apparently condemned the article in a series of tweets....

Not to take one single smidgen of a thing away from Jonah Goldberg, whom I enjoy and respect in equal and enormous measure, but Kevin Williamson is to me the most interesting thinker at National Review. Today he takes on Girls girl Lena Dunham, who he says in one sense may truly be the voice of her generation: The enormous affluence and indulgence of her upbringing did not sate her sundry hungers — for adoration, for intellectual respect that she has not earned, for the unsurpassable delight of moral preening — but instead amplified and intensified her sense of entitlement....

Winning Glamour magazine’s “Woman of the Year” award proved that “Girls” star Lena Dunham had nowhere to go but up — case in point: the actress appears on the coveted front cover of National Review this week.

Lt. McClosky, the Department's Public Information Officer, said that the department is aware of Dunham's rape allegation. In accordance with Oberlin College policies, upon hearing about the rape allegations through the media, the school notified local law enforcement. Lt. McCloskey added that there was "No report or incident report filed at the time" the raped allegedly occurred, and that if the "victim doesn't come forward criminal charges are impossible to file." Wednesday an official at Ohio's Oberlin College informed Breitbart News that the school is looking into the allegations but that the investigation is unlikely to go forward without Dunham's...

When giving thanks this year, think of Lena Woebbecke. She and many others paid a terrible price for misreading the prairie sky on the afternoon... 1888. That day was unseasonably balmy, by prairie standards — some temperatures were in the 20s — and many children scampered to school without coats or gloves. Then, at about the time schools were adjourning, death, in the shape of a soot-gray cloud, appeared on the horizon of Dakota Territory and Nebraska. In three minutes the temperature plunged 18 degrees. The next morning hundreds of people, more than 100 of them children, were dead beneath...
