    Google wants users to know how much it supports Warner Bros. taking the classic Scooby-Doo TV series and turning one of its core characters into a rainbow mafia symbol of the woke left. The New York Times slobbered in an Oct. 5 story that the script of a new Scooby Doo flick confirms “that Velma Dinkley, the cerebral mystery solver with the ever-present orange turtleneck, is canonically a lesbian.” Velma’s appearance in “Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo,” according to The Times drivel, “was the first time the long-running franchise openly acknowledged her sexuality, thrilling some fans who were disappointed that it...

    Just what everyone was totally asking for: Queer romantic storylines in classic children's cartoons. Wait, no one asked for this except the weird LGBT community adults who can't escape living in perpetual childhood. Either way, the writers of the newest Scooby-Doo reboot "Trick-Or-Treat Scooby Doo" have decided to tarnish the legacy of one of Hanna-Barbera's most iconic shows. "You know what we need in this Halloween talking-dog detective show? A lesbian romance storyline!" How does this happen, except for the entire leftist agenda is to sexualize and pervert all things good? That's their goal, to gay all the things. Ruh-roh!

    Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated producer Tony Cervone confirmed a long-standing theory by explaining that the show's incarnation of classic Scooby-Doo! character Velma Dinkley was, in fact, written as a gay woman. Cervone interjected during an argument between two Scooby-Doo! fans in the comment section of an Instagram post, which had depicted Velma and the character of Marcie Fleach in a romantic relationship. One commenter decried the post on the grounds that Mystery Incorporated saw Velma in a relationship with Shaggy Rogers, while another cited previous revelations about the show pertaining to how Velma and Marcie were ostensibly both bisexual and how...

    Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Thursday lambasted as “clearly racist” and “deeply offensive” a tweet by the Chicago Teachers Union depicting an apparent cartoon version of her tied up, wearing a police uniform and being unmasked by the characters from the “Scooby-Doo” TV show. The tweet depicts the African American mayor bound with rope, surrounded by the white characters, who have taken a police officer mask off her head to reveal that the officer is actually Lightfoot. It’s a play on the scene at the end of each episode of the Hanna Barbera cartoon, when the team of youngsters would solve...

    Have you ever seen the wide-eyed happy look on a kid after he was given one of the Hess toy trucks sold at gas stations? Well, that pretty much describes the attitude of Meet The Press host Chuck Todd in reaction to Hillary Clinton's "Scooby Doo" van. Chuck tweeted in ecstasy over supposed spontaneity of  such an "original" idea, completely forgetting the brutal reality as we shall see. As a result, poor Chuck was widely mocked in reaction.Before we go to the mocking, let us first look at Chuck Todd's happy tweet over the Scooby Doo van. An original idea...except for the...

    Casey Kasem has died. ABC News confirmed that the radio personality died today in a California hospital. He was 82. Born Kemal Amin Kasem in Detroit, the disc jockey began his career in nearby Flint before becoming an announcer on Armed Forces Radio Korea Network in 1952. Upon his return, he went on to work at radio stations in California, Ohio and New York before launching "American Top 40" in 1970. He hosted that show until 1988, and then a revived version from 1998 until 2004, when Ryan Seacrest took over. From 1988 until 1998, Kasem hosted a show called...

With his longtime partner, Bill Hanna, Barbera first found success creating the highly successful Tom and Jerry cartoons.

    Daphne Cruz left the hospital Monday, less than three weeks after doctors pulled her from her dying mother's womb after a freak accident in Oakland. Daphne was born by emergency cesarean section on Sept. 15, the day her mother, Adriana Cruz, 32, died after being crushed against a wall by her sport utility vehicle in the city's Fruitvale district. Although doctors at Highland Hospital in Oakland had to perform CPR on the full-term baby after her birth, she didn't suffer any trauma, authorities said as they marveled how a new life emerged from a mother's tragic death. On Monday, Daphne,...

    Excerpts from the never-aired 1973 Scooby Doo episode with guest star Hunter S. Thompson We were ten minutes south of San Clemente when the putrid green daisy walls of the van started closing in. I recall the fat four-eyed lesbian sweater girl saying something like "are you okay, Mr. Duke? We've got a mystery to solve..." when suddenly the gullet of the garish chartreuse steel beast began to spasm, as if a digestive track readying itself to vomit. I began clawing at my hamstrings and when I turned my head I was looking into the irridescent eyes of a grotesque...
