Check out the link to the full post here from NewsBusters! If politicians are the most self-centered group of people in America, the news media is a close second. Whether it’s flaunting their mention in the First Amendment to suffering meltdowns, the news industry collectively puts forth a front that they’re above it all. That pompousness was on display during the Tuesday edition of CNN’s The…

Check out the link to the full post here from NewsBusters! Showing how delusional CNN and MSNBC are with wall-to-wall coverage of Roseanne Barr’s deranged, racist tweet about former Obama official Valerie Jarrett, it took until at least the ninth question in Wednesday’s White House Press Briefing for the now-fired ABC star to come up.  Nevertheless, Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders came…

Check out the link to the full post here from NewsBusters! Condemning Roseanne Barr’s ugly, racist tweet from Tuesday morning about former Obama administration official Valerie Jarrett should be relatively simple. However, the panel on MSNBC’s Deadline: White House took things further and then some. In the show’s B-Block, the panel linked the now-cancelled ABC star’s comments to Sarah Palin on…
