Sheila Jackson Lee: 6 Wild Allegations From the Daily Caller Profile
By Mary Phillips-Sandy - AOL NewsRep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, is the subject of a long profile by conservative writer Jonathan Strong at The Daily Caller, and, perhaps not surprisingly, the picture Strong paints isn't pretty. The Daily Caller is a news and opinion site founded by Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson and Neil Patel, former adviser to Vice President Dick Cheney. Jackson Lee did not speak to Strong on the record (or at all), so the profile is based largely on statements made by her former and current staffers, not all of them named. While the congresswoman is a frequent target of right-wing complaints, she ...
Michael Steele at RNC Debate: 'My Record Stands for Itself -- We Won'
By Matt Lewis - Politics DailyFour of five candidates hoping to head the Republican National Committee said the RNC must do a better job of raising money for future get-out-the-vote programs during a debate Monday at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. The fifth candidate -- incumbent RNC Chairman Michael Steele -- strongly disagreed. He argued the GOP's success in 2010 should earn him a second term on Jan. 14: "My record stands for itself: We won," Steele said.

Podcast: Mike Riggs of The Daily Caller Discusses Libertarian-Leaning Conservatism
By Matt Lewis - Politics DailyOn today's podcast, Mike Riggs from The Daily Caller joins us. Riggs discusses his irreverent Twitter feed, as well as what it's like to be a young anti-establishment, libertarian-leaning conservative in Washington, DC. Riggs tells me that being a liberal is, "the least rebellious, least cool thing ever." Riggs wasn't involved in reporting the Daily Caller story, that helped bring down Washington Post blogger Dave Weigel. In fact, he was out of town. But he told me, "I came back to some hostile emails and some hostile Tweets and some direct messages -- and even a hostile voice mail." Riggs ...
GOP Chairman Michael Steele Spends Lavishly on the Road
By Christopher Weber - Politics DailyDuring official Republican National Committee trips, chairman Michael Steele spent tens of thousands of dollars on private air travel, limousines and hotels according to an investigation by The Daily Caller. The conservative Web site founded by pundit Tucker Carlson looked at FEC filings and also alleged that during a February RNC visit to Beverly Hills, Steele spent $1,946.25 at "Voyeur West Hollywood, a bondage-themed nightclub featuring topless women dancers imitating lesbian sex." The Republican National Committee disputed that Steele himself had spent money at the Hollywood nightclub. ...
The Right's New Reporting: Big Journalism and the Daily Caller
By David Sessions - Politics DailyTwo new Web sites crashed the D.C. media scene in the past week. Both are the works of well-known conservative media personalities, and both say their goal is to do what the old media seems to do less and less of these days: break big stories. Andrew Breitbart, the former editor of the Drudge Report and "primary developer" of the Huffington Post, who now operates his own ring of right-wing sites, launched Big Journalism in the afterglow of sister site Big Government's triumph in breaking the ACORN scandal. He says it will produce "solidly backed-up stories" that hold the mainstream media ...
