During an interview with RUSA Radio on Friday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) stated that “we have normalized antisemitism” in a way that wouldn’t be tolerated if it was directed towards another group and there’s been “acceptance even in some of our major media” and an attempt to downplay campus antisemitism. Adams said, “We’re witnessing a rise in hate across the globe in general, but specifically, after October 7, we witnessed a sharp increase in antisemitism, and we’re clear that New York City has no room for hate. If there’s antisemitism, anti-Sikhism, Islamophobia, anti-African Americans, no matter what...

ABC's Jimmy Kimmel on Thursday announced he will be taking the summer off after facing criticism over wearing blackface in a recurring skit he performed while working on "The Man Show" on Comedy Central. Kimmel, as a co-host of the "The Man Show," performed a recurring skit that included him dressed in blackface as then-NBA star Karl Malone. Videos and photos of the skits on the show, which ran from 1999-2004, have been circulating online recently with calls for Kimmel to apologize. "I'm taking this summer off to spend even more time with my family," Kimmel said on Thursday night...

I have now turned off all media. The heavy breathing, sweaty brows and raspy reporting of the "abuse" photos has finally ended my news watching. The picture of the female with the leash, is mild dominatrix swill. The pyramids stuff is easily found in any homosexual porn rags. Yet here we have Senators and Congressmen/women on TV grinning telling in detail the disgusting scene. They scream for Rummy's resignation hoing to make ALL of our military look like pornographers. If the Evil ones can do this then they brunt the WAR CRIMINAL Kerry's achilles heel. Fvie or six out of...

More people were killed last year in rollover-type accidents involving pickup trucks and SUVs than in previous years--statistically speaking, about 1.51 deaths per 100 million vehicle miles traveled. But despite alarmist reportage by the major media and SUV-haters in the punditocracy, that is still pretty low by historical standards. (There were 5.5 million deaths per 100 million vehicle miles traveled in the mid-1960s, and 1.75 per 100 million vehicle miles traveled in 1992.) Moreover, it's rarely mentioned in anti-SUV rants that rollover-type accidents account for just 2.5 percent of all crashes. Or that the actual number of people killed...

In this free society, where all citizens are allowed to participate in choosing the nation's leadership, the propagation of public opinion by the media is so important in the First Amendment of our Constitution's Bill of Rights, there is a guarantee of freedom of the press-which now includes electronic media as well.

NEW YORK, July 8 (UPI) -- This new book "Coloring the News: How Crusading for Diversity Has Corrupted American Journalism" (Encounter Books, 278 pages, $25.95) will break your heart. I've worked in journalism all my life, and I had no idea any of this was going on. All through the 1990s, every time Rush Limbaugh would accuse the media of a liberal bias, I would just chuckle it away as the usual sort of right-wing paranoia we've been dealing with since the Nixon administration. But William McGowan has written a carefully researched analysis of news coverage in the '90s, showing...
