[Former U.S. Marine Jesse Kelly on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show Friday night] "... Colin Kaepernick is just a guy.

[snip]In savaging Murdoch's News Corp, de Blasio got off a couple of rib-ticklers. First, he claimed that in contrast with the hated News Corp: “CNN and the major networks do not harbor a daily, hourly political agenda.” He then expressed nostalgia for the good old days, when liberals controlled all the major media outlets. He longed for: “A world without News Corp.

Smackdown: The cable news ‘wars’ between Left and Right media outlets continued on Thursday in the form of a back-and-forth on Twitter between whiny Jim Acosta of CNN and Sean Hannity of Fox News. Earlier this week Acosta was butt-hurt after being harangued and harassed and properly labeled a purveyor of “fake news” while covering a Florida campaign rally featuring POTUS Donald Trump. As Breitbart News reports, Acosta whined about it during his broadcast, at one point even claiming it felt like he was in a different country.

Jim Acosta’s feud with Sean Hannity erupted on Twitter Wednesday evening after the CNN reporter accused the Fox News host of “peddling lies” for profit and “injecting poison” into the American public. “Hannity is a propagandist for profit, peddling lies every night,” Mr. Acostatweeted to his 665,000 followers, neglecting to tag Mr. Hannity directly. “He says he’s just a talk show host, not a journalist,” the CNN chief White House correspondent wrote. “But he’s injecting poison into the nation’s political bloodstream warping public attitudes about the press. I’m confident in the long run the truth will prevail.” Mr. Hannity fired...

The White House correspondent appeared to be responding to Hannity’s comments siding with attendees at a Trump rally on Tuesday, who heckled Acosta. "I’m actually going to give your network...
