A number of readers have sent me links or images of a Father’s Day promotion Obama is running to scoop up e-mail addresses for fundraising.

Here’s an image sent by reader Bronwyn as it appeared at Real Clear Politics:

Yesterday I posted about Joe Scarborough bad-mouthing bloggers sitting in the basement eating Cheetos.

Last night Michelle Malkin encountered the same attitude from Juan Williams (jump ahead to 6:45 if you don’t have much time)(via HotAir):

I’ll tell you what Michelle, I’m a real reporter, not a blogger out in the blogosphere somewhere …

A year ago today Anthony Weiner sent the now famous crotch shot.

The story really broke on the 28th, and my initial reaction was I’m not touching this one, although I did use it as an excuse to run this clip under the heading Please Brief Me:

Remember that Indelible Image of a Boy’s Pat on Obama’s Head?

You know, the one that was so indelible that no one remembered it, and the NY Times felt compelled to remind you how indelible it was with a headline “Indelible Image of Boy’s Pat on Obama’s Head.”

It’s pretty unfair to compare Dana Milbank and Jayson Blair by lumping them together with no real connection, isn’t it?

Almost as bad as this headline and column from Dana Milbank lumping Richard Mourdock and federal prisoner Keith Judd together, Richard Mourdock and Keith Judd vs. Washington:

It started out as a massive 5000-word hit piece on Mitt Romney reminiscent of what The Washington Post did to Rick Perry about a rock on his family hunting ground.

WaPo put a reporter (or more) on the case and apparently spared no effort to find something which could make a headline...

And not just anyone, someone who was “presumed homosexual.”

The Washington Post, fresh off finding a rock in Texas, has dug deep using all the investigative reporting skills of one of the most powerful news organizations in the world, and breathlessly reports that Mitt Romney teased someone in high school in 1965...

Reputed neo-Nazi J.T. Ready apparently killed himself and his family yesterday.

There is one thing the major media outlets (MNSBC, L.A. Times, Arizona Republic) reporting on the story either fail to mention or bury.  Ready was planning to run for Sheriff as a Democrat (h/t reader mgparrish):

It was those damn meteoric expectations, and the failure of those around him, such as the Secret Service agents who visited prostitutes in Colombia, and soldiers in Afghanistan who killed civilians and burned Korans.
