The Culture and Media Institute is an American non-profit organization focusing on promoting what it believes to be traditional values in American culture and beliefs and fair treatment of conservatives in the news media. It was founded in October 2006 as a division of the Media Research Center, a group that monitors perceived liberal news media bias.[1]
CMI promotes its mission through editorials and research reports. "Eye on Culture" is a regular feature in which CMI writers express their opinions on the state of American popular culture.[2] Among its viewpoints include opposition to the Fairness Doctrine[3] and opposition to same-sex marriage.[4] In March 2007, the CMI published a "National Cultural Values Survey" and concluded from its results that most Americans perceived a decline in moral values.[5] One study released by the organization in July 2007 claimed that television viewing time correlated directly with one's liberal attitude,[6] even possibly degrading to moral attitudes.[7]
The CBS crime drama Cold Case has been twice criticized by the CMI for alleged anti-Christian prejudice in two episodes.[8] In May 2008, CMI released another report, one that claimed a moral decline in "Dear Abby" columns.[9]

To reiterate the point:
Liberal columnist - "Conservative woman is a cunt and I would like to hate f*ck her."
No reaction.
Conservative columnist - "Liberal woman is a cunt and I would like to hate f*ck her."
Conservative columnist is fired from his job and later prosecuted for hate crimes.

A hate crime, also known as a bias crime, is a criminal offense committed against a person, property, or society that is motivated, in whole or in part, by the offenderās bias against a race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or ethnicity/national origin.
Obama promised us the dream of post-partisanshipāa cuckoo land where party affiliation and factional animosity were forgotten. Turn on cable news or open any newspaper, however, and youāll quickly discover that the dream has yet to materialize. But there is a way to reach across the aisle without letting principles fall by the wayside. We speak, naturally, of the hate f*ck. We may despise everything these women represent, but goddammit theyāre hot. Let the healing begin.

I don't know, I happen to think there's nothing wrong with what any of those people said. I'm more confused about the hypocrisy.

Playboy is Misogynistic
Keep up the good work guys. And, after this, I don't think I'll ever treat Rolling Stone as a serious news source again.

At any rate, all the comments were rude. But I gotta agree with Big Stallin that while a lot of liberals may like to take hints from George Carlin, they make no claim to do otherwise. When supposedly "righteous" and "upstanding" conservatives feel its "OK to make slurrs against liberals"... it is pretty hypocritical. Not the hypocrisy you were speaking of greekdog, but anyway..

... I live a sheltered life. Somebody show me similar examples of cons trash-talking liberal women, with reference to hate-f*cks, bags of meat, or balls on the chin.
... Thanks.
