MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski was a guest on Julie Menin's Give & Take and she had a lot to say about the opinion media — that is to say, the media who pretend they're not the opinion media. Said Brzezinski of the media establishment: "I will say what people aren't saying: It's got a liberal worldview." (more...)

Mediaite in the News Remember a few weeks back when Ann Coulter was on Julie Menin's show talking about Maxine Waters and racking up the pageviews on HuffPo and this site in her usual, controversial way?

Ever the provocateur, Ann Coulter was on Julie Menin's "Give & Take" on Sunday, and came out with a few quotables.
