It’s hard out there for a Washington Post book reviewer. Hey, you try balancing your exquisite wokeness (or the appearance thereof -- it strains credulity that anybody really believes all this bilge) with a supposed love of literature. 

Feeling extreme corporate and political heat, the Washington Redskins and the Cleveland Indians are talking about changing their nicknames, and elated sports media "piranhas" are smelling blood in the water. Despite overwhelming national support for Native American nicknames, left-stream media -- The Washington Post and USA Today in particular -- have been demanding this…

The National Football League is figuratively going through a frantic two-minute drill to placate the Black Lives Matter crowd, and a sports blogger from The Shadow League is whining that the league's lengthy list of social justice activities is too little and too late. Rhett Butler writes that the league's decision to play the black national anthem "Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing" is wise, but…

Friday's PBS NewsHour ran a report promoting the leftist campaign to boycott Facebook because it allows viral content liberals don't like. But PBS really went too far this time, conflating a recent video by conservative activist Candace Owens with a couple of members of an extremist group who murdered a law enforcement officer, Dave Underwood. 

A major plotline for season 3 of Showtime’s The Chi involves the disappearance of 18-year-old Kiesha Williams (Birgundi Baker). July 5’s episode “Buss Down” further explores the consequences of the disappearance, specifically the perception of the need for (or lack thereof) police in the black community of Chicago.

If there’s anything more obnoxious than smearing Christianity, it’s using the religion as window dressing. It seems the only time Hollywood's even slightly positive towards religion is when it’s also a platform for violent fantasy stories. On July 2, Netflix proved as much with its latest series Warrior Nun.

The front page of the New York Times’ local edition Sunday took another bite out of Trump’s Independence Day weekend speeches in “As Virus Rages and Poll Numbers Slip, ‘American Carnage’ Redux.”The text box underlined an imaginary racist angle to Trump’s speeches: “Stoking racial fears to pit a white voting base against nationwide calls for social justice.” The story by White House…

Meet the Press substitute host Andrea Mitchell wanted to hammer the Russian-bounty issue on Sunday and brought on Susan Rice, the Obama national security adviser best known for lying on five Sunday shows about the terrorist attack on our consulate in Benghazi. It wasn’t a shootout at Credibility Gulch.

What was supposed to be a medical discussion on Friday’s edition of CNN Newsroom transformed into a full-blown partisan attack on President Trump. Rather than offer medical analysis, CNN medical analyst Dr. Celine Gounder used her platform to add to the relentless media criticism of President Trump’s decision to hold an outdoor 4^th of July celebration at Mount Rushmore.

On CNN's State of the Union, Sen. Tammy Duckworth, who is reportedly attracting buzz as Joe Biden's potential running mate, refuses to rule out taking down statues of George Washington. Asked by Dana Bash, subbing for Jake Tapper, Duckworth first said "we should start off by having a national dialogue on it." Pressed by Bash, she again refused to express opposition to taking down statues of…

President Trump’s rousing Friday night speech at Mount Rushmore made the front page of The Washington Post on Sunday. It was distorted, almost beyond recognition. The Page One headline was “Trump’s racial animus rattles GOP.”

Is there anything sillier than The New York Times calling anyone else's tone "dark and divisive"? The paper’s Twitter feed captured the tone: “President Trump delivered a dark and divisive speech at Mount Rushmore, leaning into the culture wars and barely mentioning the pandemic.”

On Thursday evening, PBS NewsHour displayed the latest example of journalists and other liberals suggesting that segregationist former Alabama Governor George Wallace was a Republican when he, in fact, was a lifelong Democrat.

MSNBC debased itself Friday night with a vile display of hatred for America, the Constitution (except the freedom of the press), the Declaration of Independence, the Founding Fathers, and positive celebrations of both where the country has been and where we hope to go. Led by The Beat host Ari Melber, it was a despicable 103 minutes of venom, filled with calls to go beyond Confederate…
