Seth Doane of CBS News is just the latest "reporter" to go to Postville, Iowa and report on the immigration raid that occurred there over a year ago.

David Letterman smears 14-year-old girl; *CBS*, New York Times cover for him - 6/09/2009

This site tries to avoid the Outrage du Jour, preferring instead to concentrate on topics that are actually important. However, this one is pretty outrageous.

That's bad, but what's worse is that the daught...

John McCain ad was right and Barack Obama, MSM misled about BHO's kindergartener sex education bill - 9/16/2008

Earlier this month the John McCain campaign released an ad (link, video link) saying in part: "Obama's one accomplishment? Legislation to teach "comprehensive sex education" to kindergartners.
