State Senator Stacey Campfield, sponsor of a bill that would prohibit teachers from discussing homosexuality in the classroom until 9th grade, was thrown out of a Knoxville restaurant yesterday.
Martha Boggs, owner of The Bistro at the Bijou, refused to serve Campfield, who has compared homosexuality to bestiality and claimed that one cannot contract AIDS through heterosexual sex.
Afterward, she posted a short, devastatingly pointed note on the restaurant's Facebook page defending the establishment's action: ...
A group of investors has filed a class-auction lawsuit against Netflix and several of its executives, alleging that the film and TV subscription service purposely misled the plantiffs about its earnings prospects ahead before the company’s stock took a deep dive in the second half of 2011.
[Wow, I'm still ridiculously bitter about their price increases and other shenanigans of 2011. -L]
Right-wing media darling James O’Keefe, whose deceptive pranks have caused serious harm to organizations such as ACORN and National Public Radio, found himself on the other side of the stick this week during a visit to Columbia University’s school of journalism.
O’Keefe was ostensibly pursuing his latest project: trying to catch journalists doing … things.
His most recent hits included a video of a journalism professor revealing that Huffington Post reporter Sam Stein sometimes has conversations in bars...
The world did not end on May 21 as Harold Camping, an Oakland evangelist, predicted. But some would still like to see Armageddon — for Camping’s radio empire.
Several people have filed complaints with the Federal Communications Commission demanding that the licenses of dozens of AM and FM radio stations owned by Family Radio, Camping’s broadcast ministry, be revoked. ...
Back in February we reported on a Philadelphia man who foreclosed on Wells Fargo for not refunding erroneous fees. All he did was file with the sheriff, asking for the bank's assets to be seized and he got his money back.
But this Florida couple really went through with it. An armed sheriff's deputy showed up at the bank with movers and an empty truck ready to seize furniture, computers and other assets (like the money) if Bank of America didn't fork over the $2,534 they owed Maureen Nyerger and her husband for wrongfully filing for foreclosure on their home.
Don't worry, American youth: Mike Huckabee has fixed American history. No longer will you suffer under what Huckabee calls "the 'blame America first' attitude prevalent in today's teaching."
Late Wednesday, Huckabee announced LearnOurHistory.com, a sort of BMG Music Club for what he calls "unbiased" historical lessons for kids. For around $15 each, the company will send you a new animated tale of American history each month, told through the eyes of a gang of time traveling kids.

Apparently, the Heritage Foundation isn't comfortable being the butt of economists' jokes after boldly predicting a 2.8% unemployment rate in 2021 if the House GOP Budget is enacted. The think tank has removed the number from its study posted online.
A clear sign that perhaps you've gone off the deep end? When even the Ku Klux Klan tries to distance itself from your actions. ...
In one statement from August 2010, the Klan had this (shockingly reasonable thing) to say about Terry Jones, the Florida pa
According to Southfield, Michigan police, Jones' .40-caliber handgun fired accidentally as he was leaving a television studio there on Thursday night. This is presumably the same handgun he said he intended to bring to his planned anti-sharia law protest
