Selected days for commemoration serve one fundamental purpose. Centrally, they acknowledge the forgotten or neglected, while proposing to do nothing about it. It’s the priest’s confession, the chance for absolution before the next round of soiling.

RSF’s original 1991 report provided a “round-up of journalists killed throughout the world” and laid the groundwork for what eventually became the Press Freedom Index, which now ranks freedom of […]

A while ago, the ADL called for him to be fired, so he must be doing something right, but even the bravest of the brave can tilt at windmills. Recently, Tucker slipped up big time interviewing fantasist Tara […]
Regarding the latest nonsense about the Kennedy assassination, Tucker makes much of the fact that this was the case of a lone gunman killing the President who was in turn assassinated by a lone gunman. Weird huh, or is it? It was not the Warren Commission that invented the conspiracy industry but Jack Ruby. But […]
“Ditto,” said Tweedledum. “Ditto, ditto!” cried Tweedledee. – Lewis Carroll, Through The Looking-Glass, December 27, 1871 Sometimes a trifling contretemps can open a window onto significant issues.
