Column: Numerical Nitpicking of the Coronavirus Briefings

Throughout the Trump era, the media have hated the president, both coming and going. They condemned him for not having “formal” press briefings. Now they condemn him for having them. The Washington Post and The New York Times augmented their aggression on the briefings by doing content analysis of the transcripts.They're full of Trump "attacks" and "boasts," but "little empathy."

Cuomo Escaped His Quarantine, But Ripped the VP for Going Maskless

Hypocrisy was the word of the day over on CNN’s PrimeTime, where host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo spent a portion of Tuesday’s show ripping Vice President Mike Pence for not wearing a facemask during a visit to the Mayo Clinic. But it has been well documented that Cuomo, who himself was actually infected with the coronavirus, had flouted rules about staying isolated by leaving his house and traveling,…

'Mixed-ish' Misinformation: 'Reagan Planted Crack in Black Community'

Mixed-ish, ABC's prequel to Black-ish, is well known for being a politically charged, anti-conservative show based in the 1980s. On Tuesday's episode, "Every Little Step," they continued this trend when Paul (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) accused Reagan of planting crack in the black community.

WashPost Fact Checker Can't Handle Trump's Truth About Late Abortions

The Washington Post “Fact Checker” has a very strange and unfactual way of reacting to Democrats telling voters and interest groups they want no restrictions on abortion. They think it’s a “lie” to say these Democrats support abortion up until birth, even when Democrats say they support no restrictions on a "woman's right to choose."

Ignoring Rape Claim Against Biden, ABC/CBS Cheer Hillary’s Endorsement

It was one of the most predictable developments on the Democratic side of the 2020 presidential election: two-time presidential flunky Hillary Clinton endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden. But that didn’t stop ABC’s World News Tonight from fangirling Tuesday and declaring it “another big milestone” for the campaign. At the same time, ABC News and CBS Evening News continued their blackout of…

Hannity Demands NYT Run Retraction for Tying Him to Coronavirus Death

On Monday, Fox News Channel host Sean Hannity publicly demanded The New York Times not only issue a correction, but apologize for a false and heinous April 18 column implicating him in the death of 74-year-old Brooklyn resident Joe Joyce from the coronavirus. Tuesday morning, The Times issued a statement in which they declined to do so and instead boasted Ginia Bellafante’s column was “accurate.”

‘Legendary’ Bernstein Blows Up on ‘Delusional,’ ‘Unstable,’ ‘Reckless’

Washington Post journalist Carl Bernstein was never one to keep his liberal bias in check. But now he sounds like every other host on CNN (or MSNBC for that matter). Appearing on Sunday’s CNN Newsroom, he lashed out at the “delusional,” “unstable,” “reckless” Donald Trump. In what must be required now on CNN, host Ana Cabrera introduced the Watergate reporter as the “legendary journalist.”…

YouTube REMOVES Video on Potential COVID-19 Treatment

While YouTube is relying on the hapless WHO to fight misinformation, the platform is clamping down on reports of potential treatments that are being developed. There has been some controversy about an ultraviolet light-based treatment for the COVID-19 virus. The “Healight,” by Aytu BioScience Inc., reportedly “uses ultraviolet light as an antimicrobial and is a promising potential treatment for…

611 Dead Babies in 1 Week: ‘NYT’ Touts the Benefits of ‘TelAbortion’

It’s really sickening to think that the folks weaponizing a natural disaster’s death toll to bash conservative policies are also seeking to make abortion as accessible as making a phone call or ordering medication online.

NYT Writer Stokes Alarmism About ‘Inequality’ If Economy Restarts

The farcical New York Times dealt with the question of re-opening our coronavirus-devastated economy by stoking progressive alarmism about racial and economic “inequality.” The Times published a preposterous story headlined with a false equivalency, “Job or Health? Restarting the Economy Threatens to Worsen Economic Inequality.” Author Jim Tankersley grumbled in the sub-headline that “The…

Politico Retracts Its Fake Bank of China Story, Will Biden Follow?

To their credit, minutes before the end of Monday, Politico retracted its Friday faceplant of a story about Trump “owing tens of millions” to the Bank of China. It was a case of Fake News. But Biden was still pushing this garbage in a TV interview on Monday to defend against his son's business dealings in China.

NYT: States 'Undermining' Stay-at-Home Efforts As 'Grim Milestone' Set

The front of Tuesday's New York Times tackled how various states plan to re-open for business over a surprisingly sunny banner headline, “States Set Course To Unlock Doors Of U.S. Commerce.” But the optimistic headline was overridden by the doubt-ridden tone of reporters Jack Healy, Manny Fernandez, and Peter Baker, teaming up to seed the ground to say “I told you so” if the states' plans…
