Buchanan must be held publicly accountable for facilitating the dissemination of toxic hate speech that, as the Holocaust Museum shooting reminds us, can have tragic consequences.
I have just finished watching the Sunday talk shows. All in all -- and this from a Sunday morning talk show junkie -- a pretty poor excuse for analysis of what's going on in Washington.
The right-wing attack machine is in high-gear, throwing all sorts of inflammatory rhetoric around like it was the '08 campaign all over again.
In Chris Matthews' interview with Roland Burris, he conducted himself not as a fair-minded journalist but a prosecutor who believes it's okay to conceal exculpatory evidence to win a case.
Cable news, like talk radio, has coarsened our culture, turning it into a daily sideshow for loudmouths and know-nothings. It's all about the perceived best way to get ratings -- by keeping the pot stirred.
If MSNBC's executives insist on retaining Buchanan as a fixture on their news channel, he must be clearly identified as an enabler of Holocaust deniers.
Those who forget the fact that America is a moderate country tend to perish.
The mix of Beltway media personalities and Hollywood types was jarring but fun.
Republicans are completely a mess -- a familiar mess, trapped between their increasingly loopy base and the American mainstream. Their base is full of flat-earthers that don't believe the scientific consensus.
Anyone who thought that they would obtain incisive coverage from Chris Matthews of all the torture news that is breaking was in for a disappointment Wednesday.
Donald Rumsfeld compared the end of Saddam Hussein's government to the fall of the Berlin Wall -- a tragically premature judgment, as we would soon learn.
How do I know? I'm one of the voices they used, which is quite curious because I am neither a celebrity nor anywhere near a Bobby Jindal fan.
President Obama's historical visit to the Tonight Show garnered the highest ratings for Jay Leno since 2005. Nielsen reports that the Obama intervie...
It's incredible how quickly CNBC is rivaling Fox News when it comes to conflicts of interest and as a bastion of biased and partisan news.
Matthew's job is to be up on things and point out the B.S. This is his full time job. Instead, he either doesn't know the facts or he is too busy yammering to notice what anyone else says.
Why did the press dub Matthews' remark a "blooper," yet Santellli's rant was crowned a "populist" "shot heard around the world?"
The fight over the 2010 census, which will ultimately dictate how congressional districts are drawn in 2012 and potentially influence party control of Congress for years to come, has already started.
In tearing into Bobby Jindal's response to Obama's speech last week, Chris Matthews said, "They had to outsource the response." Interesting choice of words.
Lindsey Graham hosted a movie night a couple of years ago and his selection was Seven Days in May. Other hosts were Jane Harman and Susan Collins who picked Thelma and Louise.
It's factually incorrect. It's not witty. And it perpetuates the falsehood that the science on global warming is not settled.
Mark McKinnon has implied that Obama deserved the keys to the Oval Office because he's African-American. That smacks of tokenism. It's also not the reason the Illinois senator won.

She was only was taking the opposite view. The very point Chris was making
It's sad that Mike missed the point. I think she is blind by Joe and cannot see clearly, maybe she should talk to her dad and get some real perspective.
Good job Chris! me and dozens of others think you were spot on.
Sounds like Mika's the one who missed the point. Matthews wasn't too far off in his assessment of why Graham et al are taking their ridiculous stand. It's partly to position themselves against Obama, when it's not about irrational hawkishness, that is.
Mika's point is moot.
Matthews is still right. We(U.S.) need to let the people of Iran fight their own internal struggles,while keeping a watchful eye.
exactly, mika was only cutting down the repubs for acting like children. title is misleading
I thought Don Imus was bad on his show at times, but I am ready for Don to return for a watchable show !!!
