NBC, CBS, MSNBC, the New York Times, et al. They reek of hypocrisy and Michelle Malkin calls them out on it:
When a right-wing Christian vigilante kills, millions of fingers pull the trigger. When a left-wing Muslim vigilante kills, he kills alone. These are the instantly ossifying narratives in the Sunday shooting death of Kansas late-term abortionist George Tiller versus the Monday shootings of two Arkansas military recruiters.
Tiller’s suspected murderer, Scott Roeder, was white, Christian, anti-government, and anti-abortion. The gunman in the military recruiting center attack, Abdul Hakim Mujahid Muhammad, was black, a Muslim convert, anti-military, and anti-American. Both crimes are despicable, cowardly acts of domestic terrorism. But the disparate treatment of the two brutal cases by both the White House and the media is striking.
Read the whole thing. I no longer have TV and I no longer buy the New York Times. I haven’t listened to NPR in years. None are missed.

Yes, Muslims confront police and nearly riot - because they want an extremist group to go away!

Likewise. Oh, except I never did read the New York Times, and when I listened to NPR it was in some hippie chick’s car. We are not together any more, so, you know….

I have no television,
It is amazing the amount of reading, walking, cycling, and number of conversations you can have in the time you save.
It is also amazing how difficult it is to suspend disbelief when I do see TV now, and how little tolerance I now have to TV violence.

I read Michelle’s blog every day.
She is right 99.99% of the time.
That is why a lot of liberals hate her.
Not despise, hate.
I think she is spot on and a courageous syndicated columnist.
