Only NBC Reports Navy to Name Ship for Medal of
Honor Recipient
 Last
October the NBC Nightly News was the first broadcast network
evening newscast to highlight the Medal of Honor for Navy Lieutenant
Michael Murphy, a SEAL killed in combat in Afghanistan in June of 2005,
and on Wednesday the newscast stood alone in highlighting the Navy's
announcement that a guided-missile destroyer will be named the "USS
Michael Murphy."

Bozell's News Column
Roseanne vs. Rush
Air America Radio may
have tried and failed to use washed-up comedians like Janeane
Garofalo and Al Franken to make liberal talk radio work, but their
rule seems to be that if first you don't succeed, flop, flop again.
When wacky radical Randi Rhodes resigned over a nasty and profane
denunciation of Hillary Clinton, Air America replaced her in
afternoon drive time with... Roseanne Barr.

Worst of the Week
Feeling Barack Obama's Pain
 After
Obama’s former minister unleashes a string of radical remarks at the
National Press Club, liberal journalists cast the Democratic candidate
as the victim, with ABC's David Wright sympathizing: "For Obama, whose
own father abandoned him as a child, this must have been another painful
break." And, the NBC Nightly News hypes the harm of higher food prices,
suggesting that an elderly couple who now sleep in a van are somehow
typical of "tens of millions of seniors [who] rely primarily on a fixed
income to live." |

Notable Quotables
Must Ignore Wright Debacle
 After
Barack Obama's former minister made clear his radical views, network
journalists rallied around the Democratic candidate. NBC's Brian
Williams emphasized those who deemed Jeremiah Wright a "circus" and a
"sideshow" as the NBC Nightly News highlighted a pundit who declared
Obama to be "the victim in all of this." At the same time, CNN analyst
David Gergen instructed the media "to move on" from the Wright mess,
while ABC's David Wright empathized: "For Obama, whose own father
abandoned him as a child, this must have been another painful break."

2008 DisHonors Awards
 At a celebrity-studded gala held in Washington, D.C. April 10, the MRC
presented its
"2008 DisHonors Awards: Roasting the Most
Outrageously Biased Liberal
Reporters of 2007." Conservative luminaries including Cal Thomas, Mark
Levin, Ann Coulter and Larry Kudlow highlighted the presentations and
acceptances; MSNBC's Chris Matthews "won" Quote of the Year for his giddy
reaction to Bill Clinton speaking: "There are times when he sounds like
Jesus in the Temple." Following the awards ceremony, MRC President Brent
Bozell presented Tony Snow with the MRC’s second annual
"William F. Buckley Jr. Award for Media Excellence." The evening ended
with a
video tribute to the late Navy Lt. Michael Murphy, who was posthumously
awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for selfless valor in combat in
Afghanistan in 2005.
