#JOURNALISM: Another Day, Another Case Study on Media Bias. “Huh? Why the headline focus on the NRA, then? The headline could have just as easily read ‘NAACP and some other nonprofits’ or ‘Planned Parenthood and some other nonprofits.’ There’s no justification given in the article for the focus on the NRA in particular when we’re talking about a rule that affects literally every 501(c)(4).”

BUT BUT BUT… FUTURE FACE OF THE DEMOCRATS: Ouch! Even CNN’s Chris Cillizza advises Dems to ‘slow their roll’ on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Cillizza should reconsider. I mean, Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters aren’t going to live forever, and who is going to replace them with crazy and stupid of that caliber? I favor Occasionally-Cortex for the job!
