When Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was released in a swap for five Taliban prisoners three weeks ago and celebrated by the White House as a hero, his fellow Army platoon leaders came forward with details about how he was "captured" as a prisoner. Bergdahl was accused of being a deserter who violated his oath and left on his own accord by the men who served with him. At the time of their statements, State Department Deputy Press Secretary Marie Harf was asked during a press conference about the knowledge the platoon members had surrounding Bergdahl's alleged desertion. She dismissed their statements...

MSNBC is the network where ex-host Martin Bashir suggested that someone defecate and urinate on Sarah Palin. Yet, the suddenly sensitive Joy Reid on Wednesday warned viewers that she was about to feature someone saying the word "Redskins," what she deemed to be a "racial slur." [See video below. MP3 audio here.'] Hours after the U.S. Patent and Trademark office had cancelled the Washington Redskins trademark registration, Reid played a clip of Senator Harry Reid attacking the team. The host fretted, "And I just warn people, he does use the name of the team. So, I'm just going to warn...

For those of you who watched Hannity last night,you saw the "Loveable Bob Beckel",pretty much backed into a corner when Sean tried to get answers out of him concerning the Iraq Invasion.He also asked Mr.Beckel to name any success of Obama's National Security.He could not refer to Bush again,he just went off into left field trying to come up with an answer to make the Democrats look like they succeeded with the Mid-East and Russia.Even on The Five,Bob is in dire straights trying to explain away the events of the week.Same with Juan Williams,his answers/explanations are as relevant as the...

The Wall Street Journal has posted a profile of PewDiePie, the Swedish gamer who claims more subscribers than any other YouTube channel. According to the article, the 24-year-old grossed $4 million in 2013, making him a real-life YouTube millionaire. 2013 was a banner year for PewDiePie.

All of those views added up to $4 million in ad revenue, though that number doesn’t represent PewDiePie’s ultimate profit, since partner network Maker Studios takes...

Tupac would have turned 43 today. In age of Trayvon and Jordan Davis, here's why we have a hard time letting him go. Tupac Shakur lived for twenty-five years. I was nine years-old when he died and twenty-five seemed so grown to me. Twenty-five sounded like you had lived. It wasn’t until I started approaching twenty-five myself that I realized how close to black boyhood Tupac, born forty-three years ago to the day, was when he died. I think that’s part of the reason we have a hard time letting him go. For all of his faults (and there were...

Over the past two decades daytime television has devolved into a voyeuristic train wreck which continues to push the envelope, both creating and feeding the public's appetite to see our fellow countrymen debase and dehumanize themselves in a covetous ratings war. In one of the latest and most vile examples of this trend, the Trisha Show exposes the utter wickedness of liberal Hollywood, whose menu of garbage further divides Americans from one another on a racial and class basis. On any given day, the audience is treated to a number of provocative and salacious topics, including cheating lovers, family drama...

Don Lemon kicked off CNN Tonight on Wednesday with a piece of commentary about Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl‘s fellow soldiers appearing in the media to call him a deserter and the like. And what Lemon wanted to know was why these soldiers are speaking out so harshly against Bergdahl before there’s any “official evidence” released to the public about what he did. Lemon spoke of the bond soldiers normally have after they return home, “brothers in arms,” and “how the greatest generation conducted themselves.” And of the soldiers criticizing Bergdahl, he said, “They have every right to speak out. They...

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)MSNBC host Rachel Maddow made a startling comparison while attempting to justify her unequivocal support of the trade of five dangerous Taliban prisoners for likely Army deserter Bowe Bergdahl, equating his dishonorable behavior with Army Pvt. Jessica Lynch’s wrong turn during the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Maddow opened her show Tuesday night with a rambling segment missed by almost all other media outlets, in which the liberal television host made the argument that Lynch’s wrong turn into an Iraqi ambush made her a “bad” soldier not so different from Bergdahl and still, certainly, deserving of rescue — something soldiers who...

Ann B. Davis, who played the beloved housekeeper Alice in The Brady Bunch, died over the weekend. New information is coming out about her faith and her life. The Associated Press reports: For many years after “The Brady Bunch” wound up, Davis led a quiet religious life, affiliating herself with a group led by [Episcopal Bishop William] Frey. “I was born again,” she told the AP in 1993. “It happens to Episcopalians. Sometimes it doesn’t hit you till you’re 47 years old. “It changed my whole life for the better. … I spent a lot of time giving Christian witness...

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)Liberal MSNBC host Chris Matthews continued his attacks on the Obama administration for the trade of five dangerous Taliban prisoners for Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, slamming the White House’s claim that soldiers who served with Bergdahl are “swift-boating” him and asking “where is the dishonesty in the portrayal?” of Bergdahl as a deserter. Matthews, who strongly questioned the trade even while facts continued to pour in on Monday, has been the only host on his network so far to even remotely challenge the Obama administration’s narrative on the prisoner trade and Bergdahl’s history of service. And on Wednesday, he angrily...

The Army has no immediate plans to punish Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl for leaving his post in Afghanistan, Secretary of the Army John McHugh said in a statement on Tuesday, putting Bergdahl’s medical and psychological needs first. Bergdahl, a Taliban prisoner for the past five years, was swapped over the weekend for five Talban heavyweights imprisoned at the Guantánamo Bay detention camp. That doesn’t mean Bergdahl is off the hook. Already, the 28-year-old soldier has been called a traitor by members of his platoon in the pages of the New York Daily News and on CNN. Members of his unit have...

What do you get when you put one of the smartest people in the world – astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson – in the same room with MSNBC talker Chris Hayes? Answer: You get a lot of science interview questions, not all of which will be gems. But to their credit, they did manage to cover the one burning issue which awaits resolution – where are the aliens, and why haven’t they contacted us?
