Eye Roll: MS NOW Lets NC Dem Slam 'Un-American' Arrests of Illegals
On Sunday's The Weekend, MS NOW gave an unchallenged forum to a North Carolina Democrat to rant and ramble about the arrests of illegal aliens in her state, calling it both "kidnapping" and "un-American" of people who are our "neighbors" "friends," and "family members." In other words, MS NOW put forth a guest to argue arrests of non-American citizens who've broken our laws is "un-…
Lib Media Scream: Couric & Psaki Condemn Pressroom Political Diversity
November 24: Couric and Psaki condemn pressroom political diversity.
PolitiFact Finds 'Experts' to Defend Democrats on 'Illegal Orders'
When Republicans slam Democrats, one typical elitist-media rebuttal is to insist the GOP has "no evidence" of its claims. When Elissa Slotkin and her Democrat squad urged military personnel to disobey illegal orders, they had "no evidence" of any illegal orders from Trump. TV interviews have underlined repeatedly they denied having any proof. So naturally, PolitiFact lined up with the…
David Bozell on Epstein Files: Media Double Standard on Full Display
David Bozell, president of the Media Research Center, is warning liberals to be careful what they wish for when it comes to the release of the Epstein files. Friday on WMAL, Bozell told afternoon drive host Derek Hunter that despite the elitist media’s obsession with the fake news narrative that the files implicate President Donald Trump, the files could be bad news for liberals.
Golden Ages: How Great Civilizations Fall & How We Can Save Ours
We media types obsess about America’s problems. But we should acknowledge that today, life in America is better than life has been anywhere, ever. For most of history, the norm was hunger, disease, illiteracy, slavery, and war. There were a few exceptions (from some of those problems) -- so-called golden ages, Ancient Athens, Rome, the Renaissance, etc. In our new video, historian Johan…
Cornish's Bogus Claim: 1 in 5 US Kids 'Experiencing Hunger Right Now'
In a CNN This Morning segment on hunger in America, host Audie Cornish falsely claims that "one in five children in the US are experiencing hunger right now." Her guest, the CEO of "Feeding America," cleans up Cornish's false claim a bit, saying 1 in 5 are experiencing "food insecurity," a vague and expansive term including issues having nothing to do with actual hunger.
PBS 'Washington Week' Rips Trump's 'Unmanaged Anger' at Orders Video
Washington Week with The Atlantic host Jeffrey Goldberg opened Friday’s political roundtable on PBS by setting up a segment on the reckless video issued by Democrats pressuring current military members “to refuse illegal orders” – while leaving the illegal orders supposedly issued by Trump undefined. Goldberg led off by ripping Trump's "unmanaged anger" over the "eminently ignorable"…
NBC Host Nudges Smear from Mamdani: Repeat for Me, Trump's a Fascist
On Sunday's Meet the Press, "moderator" Kristen Welker lunged for the extremes. She nudged New York Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani to repeat his smear that President Trump is a fascist. This wasn't a question designed to challenge the guest, or even elicit an answer. It was a request to repeat a smear for everyone to hear. Trump is like Hitler, eager to fill the gas chambers.
Susan Glasser WHINES About Cordiality of Trump-Mamdani Meeting
The Elitist Media is still abuzz about the recent meeting between President Donald Trump and New York Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani and subsequent Oval Office presser. Contrary to expectations and hype, the tone was cordial and light.
GASLIGHTING: Sunday Shows Platform ‘Seditious’ Congresscritters
The prospects of the Democrat members of Congress behind the viral “illegal orders” video being booked on the Elitist Media’s Sunday shows were as predictable as the Sun rising in the East, and as certain as death and taxes. Also predictable: that the media would, with varying degrees, facilitate their continued gaslighting of the American public.
God Talk: NY Times Standards Editor Compares Trump to the Golden Calf
Patrick Healy changed jobs this year at The New York Times from Deputy Opinion Editor to Assistant Managing Editor for Standards and Trust. This is a little funny for me, since Healy once asked me on a panel discussion "What do you have against democracy?" This week, he interviewed two Times religion reporters for an article titled "How Two Times Reporters Cover Christianity in a…
PBS Panel Hits Trump 'Misogyny,' Defends ABC's Compromised Mary Bruce
Friday’s Washington Week with The Atlantic on PBS was more feistily anti-Trumpism than usual, with moderator Jeffrey Goldberg leading the panel into various anti-Trump segments, including the president’s fraught relationship with the mainstream press. Goldberg used Trump’s spat with two female reporters in the White House press pool to label Trump, an equal-opportunity insulter, as a…
BYE BABY: PBS Glamorizes 'Underground Network' Pushing Abortion Pills
PBS (and its natural liberal fans) love abortion. Pushing abortion pills after the repeal of Roe v. Wade is heroic in their eyes. On Wednesday's PBS News Hour, reporter Sarah Varney spent almost ten minutes glamorizing an "underground network" of abortion pill distributors in pro-life states. It's "underground" enough that PBS helpfully hid the identities of all their…
