I don’t usually gush over op-ed’s because they generally say the same thing that has been said a thousand times over. However, Ann Coulter’s latest piece was one of the best I’ve seen in awhile. Despite all the lefty media hype that Ann Coulter is heartless and evil, you only need to read one of her columns to truly see why she draws so much ire from them – she hits the nail on the head of liberalism every time. Today’s piece, entitled Media Mogul Charged With First Degree Murdoch perfectly exemplified the derangement over the News of the World phone hacking scandal and Rupert Murdoch – it’s definitely worth a read. I enjoy a lot of Ann Coulter columns, but this one in particular was extremely intelligent and well thought out.

Read the whole thing here.

Some highlights:

“The entire mainstream media are fixated on Murdoch’s imagined role in the Fleet Street phone-hacking story — the only topic more boring than the debt ceiling — solely in order to pursue their petty vendetta against Fox News, which liberals hate with the hot, hot heat of a thousand suns.

“Every guest on MSNBC is asked the same question: Is it possible to believe that Murdoch was unaware of what some reporters at News of the World were doing? How can a network that employs Chris Matthews be unfamiliar with the concept of a “rogue employee”?

“In fact, it’s quite easy to believe Murdoch was unaware of what News of the World reporters were doing — particularly considering the striking absence of any evidence to the contrary…

“Why wasn’t Les Moonves responsible for CBS anchor Dan Rather trying to throw the 2004 presidential election with phony National Guard documents one month before the election? Moonves was president, CEO and director of CBS, a company with half as many employees as News Corp. And his rogue employee constituted a much bigger part of CBS’ business than News of the World did of the Murdoch empire…

“…What about all the illegally obtained information regularly printed in the Times? Was Pinch Sulzberger unaware his newspaper was publishing classified government documents illegally obtained by Julian Assange?

“…But now the rest of us have to watch while the mainstream media pursue their personal grudge against Rupert Murdoch for allowing Fox News to exist. They demand his head for owning a British tabloid where some reporters used illegally obtained information, something The New York Times does defiantly on a regular basis.”

She makes an important argument about the hypocrisy of the left. It’s exactly why MSNBC shill Martin Bashir accused Rupert Murdoch of being “a combination of Jack Abramoff and James “Whitey” Bulger” even though there’s not any shred of evidence implicating Murdoch. It’s the same reason why another MSNBC hack Contessa Brewer thought the pie attack by Jonnie Jackass was justified.

The left has no shame, nor any honor.
