'''Liberal hypocrisy''' is the act of a [[liberal]] saying or doing a certain thing for which they condemn others in doing. Liberal [[hypocrisy]] can extend as far as condemning a [[conservative]] position yet embracing the same position it if it becomes a liberal position. A recent example of liberal hypocrisy is that liberals will often criticize [[George W. Bush]] for drinking in his youth, although they do not criticize [[Barack Obama]] who blatantly admitted to using [[drugs]] and who smoked <ref>

Representative Rosa DeLauro, a Democrat from Connecticut, voted for a massive aid bill totaling $26 billion dollars, which was passed into law and signed by President Obama on August 10, 2010; the bill would distribute money to states to aid teachers and first responders (fire fighters, police).  DeLauro said this in an email to Fox News:

The "food assistance" money she is referring to is the [[Food stamp]] program, which provides money to needy families who live at or below the poverty line.  For the aid bill, Delauro voted to remove approximately $12 billion dollars from the food stamp program.

The former host of ''Countdown With Keith Olbermann'' is not shy about where his ideology lies; he has used his nationaly-known broadcast to disparage conservatives, Republicans, Christians, and anyone else who disagrees with his liberal philosophy. On November 5, 2010, Olbermann was suspended indefinitely without pay by MSNBC for giving contributions to three Democratic candidates without first notifying his bosses, one of whom appeared on his show just after receiving a contribution. Citing NBC policy that states ''"Anyone working for NBC News who takes part in civic or other outside activities may find that these activities jeopardize his or her standing as an impartial journalist because they may create the appearance of a conflict of interest. Such activities may include participation in or contributions to political campaigns or groups that espouse controversial positions. You should report any such potential conflicts in advance to, and obtain prior approval of, the President of NBC News or his designee" '', MSNBC President Phil Griffin gave the order for suspension. <ref>http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/11/05/msnbc-suspends-keith-olbermann-indefinitely-contributing-democratic-campaigns/</ref><ref>http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=224525</ref>

"Contributions" to a cause does not have to be in terms of money; it can also involve using the public airwaves.  MSNBC has continually presented programing and hosts hostile to conservatives and the Republican Party, while at the same time being supportive of the Democratic Party and liberalism in general.  MSNBC currently presents nightly programing similar to Olbermann's, hosted by Chris Matthews and Rachel Maddow, both of whom are on record as using their shows in support of Democratic causes.  Further, parent company NBC uses its ''Today'' show and ''NBC Nightly News'' in much the same way.

As a direct result of the tragedy involving the shooting deaths of 26 children and administrators at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, the ''New York Journal'' published an online interactive map on December 23, 2012 showing the locations of all law-abiding citizens who legally owned, and had registered, firearms within Westchester and Rockland counties of New York. "We knew publication of the database would be controversial, but we felt sharing as much information as we could about gun ownership in our area was important in the aftermath of the Newtown shootings," editor and news vice president CynDee Royle said<ref>http://www.courthousenews.com/2013/01/02/53539.htm</ref>. The newspaper's editors also sought out what type of weapons were owned, as well as targeting Putnam County, which denied the request.  Speaking about the rage many felt over the ''Journal's'' anti-gun stance, state Senator Greg Ball, (R-Patterson, N.Y.) said in a statement "This is clearly a violation of privacy, and needs to be corrected immediately. The same elitist eggheads who use their editorial page to coddle terrorists and criminals are now treating law-abiding citizens like level-three sexual predators. Every person with common sense should be offended."

:''McDONALD'S TRANS FAT:  McDonald's was sued after it announced, with great fanfare and publicity, that it would remove [[trans fat]] from its offerings, and then quietly reneged on its promise.  McDonald's agreed to make the requested disclosure, and to pay $8 million to settle the law suit.'' <ref>http://banzhaf.net/suefat.html</ref>
