Cue the confetti! On this day in 1973 (a mere 37 year ago), MSNBC (@msnbc) talk show host Rachel Maddow (@maddow) was born (and conservative republicans everywhere felt a sudden chill in the air).

Who doesn’t love a celebrity media smackdown (it’s like a family feud only with pretty, rich people)? Not that FOX News , LL Cool J or Toby Keith are family “per se”, but both LL and Keith have tasted of the bitter fruit that is known as a FOX News interview (both done years ago) [...]
Hilarity and smackdown ensues. At least, you’d think it would. But immediately, beginning with Letterman’s boring introduction of Tea Party President Pam Stout, you know this interview isn’t going to be nearly as funny, enlightening or acidic as it should be considering the guest and the talk show host (is a pre-interview zinger too much [...]
By now we’ve all heard the details: a political consultant for the RNC (Eric Brown) spent almost $2,000 of donated funds at a bondage-themed strip club featuring women imitating lesbian sex.

alk show host and comedian Bill Maher and his panel of guests answer your question “from the internets” (as Maher says) on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher (@billmaher). Every week, after the taping of the week’s episode, Maher and his guests answer your questions on the week’s latest news on an after-show segment called [...]
Leave it to Jon Stewart to be an incessant thorn in the buttocks of Fox News. He does it like nobody else. The fact that he does this and manages to make a few folks laugh is all the more reason to dig him.
It shouldn’t surprise anyone that FOX News (President Obama’s arch nemesis) [...]
Looking decidedly casual donning a pair of jeans topped with a black blazer, Sarah Palin appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night (a much-hyped appearance for the return of Leno as host of The Tonight Show).
Palin proceeds to confound and scare the crap out of her detractors with comments like the one [...]
Maybe this is a foreshadowing of a brewing, political battle to come – or maybe it’s just coincidence, but Letterman has booked Sarah Palin’s nemisis former Mormon presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
