**Written by Doug Powers The White House Correspondents Dinner took place last night in Washington. MSNBC hosted a party where a Barack Obama lookalike jumped out of a cake, much to the delight of a giddy Chris Matthews (that's an unverified rumor but it sounds about right). From what I've read so far though, the [...] The _Guardian_ has a big fat profile of MSNBC's Rachel Maddow today and the most interesting part is that she basically tells every news anchor who isn't out of the closet to just tell the world already. Yeah, that means you, Andy Coop.

Republican bloggers would go to great lengths to prove their devotion to the cause and their slavish love to the cause, competing with each other to prove who is the most loyal. Democrats, it seems, [...] In your serene Wednesday media column: Jay Severin gets canned, a blogger sues over working conditions, Pinch defends his paywall, Hearst is full of catty status-seekers, and Rachel Maddow will make you a martyr.

Rachel Maddow has become caught up in a right-wing think tank's apparent vendetta against professors with a whiff of the left about them. The Michigan Mackinac Center is demanding personal emails written by labor professors in the state system that mention "Wisconsin," "Madison," Wisconsin Gov. "Scott Walker"â€"and "Maddow"â€"in… Source Msnbc's Rachel Maddow talks to TODAY's Ann Curry about the United States' role in Libya and the political implications of American involvement. (TODAY) There was a time when I thought Michael Moore was just another self- interested, over-the-top pundit O'Reilly and Hannity like the style of union-busting Governor Walker, but for Glenn Beck Madison looks like Armageddon Fox News hosts are convinced that the ongoing protests by union workers in Wisconsin and the solidarity rallies across the country mark the end of America's labour movement. ## Bill O'Reilly O'Reilly spoke about the "battle in Wisconsin that the far left appear to be losing" and criticised what he felt was biased coverage of the protests by the mainstream media (view clip). He was particularly upset with the New York Times for suggesting that Governor Walker's attempt to strip the unions of their collective bargaining rights (in addition to reducing the take home pay of government workers by an estimated 8%) might provoke a backlash against Republicans and conservatives. He also took issue with columnist Paul Krugman, whom he described as a "far left zealot", for pointing out that public employees in Wisconsin earn lower wages than private employees. O'Reilly did not contest this statement (because it's true), but he said that it was not a good enough reason for the public sector worker's take-home pay not to be cut by 8%, because, by and large, they have enjoyed ...

For years he was editor of the tabloid that trailed behind Rupert Murdoch's organ. Now, having taken over Larry King's role as CNN's marquee interviewer, Morgan finds himself in second place once again to Murdoch's Fox News. According to ratings firm Neilsen, Morgan's heavily advertised debut on Monday in the 9pm slot for CNN garnered a respectable 2.1 million viewers, a substantial increase on the average nightly figure of 657,000 that King was pulling in the last three months of 2010. But even with the hype surrounding Morgan's first guest Oprah Winfrey, Piers Morgan Tonight couldn't crack Fox News's grip on the cable TV news ratings. Morgan had the misfortune of running into Fox News's Sean Hannity interviewing Sarah Palin in the same time slot. That match-up got 2.36 million viewers and continued to make headlines the next day. Morgan's show did easily beat MSNBC's Rachel Maddow, who was watched by 1.1 million people for her interview with the film-maker Michael Moore, a frequent guest. But as ... With several major legislative victories during the lame-duck Congressional session under his belt, President Obama heads to Hawaii for the holidays.
