I said this: “And when it comes a whistleblower who blew the whistle on the network’s protection of pedophile Jeffrey Epstein?

NYT Injects Anti-Capitalism, Brexit-Bashing Everywhere: 'Museum Heap'
The New York Times doesn’t just inject anti-capitalist and anti-conservative positions into its “news” coverage, but uses every section to make its arguments, concealed under the rubrics of Arts or Style.

On Thursday morning, FNC's Fox and Friends gave attention to liberal efforts to restrict gun sales in Tacoma, Washington, by charging people a tax for gun sales, as if making lawful gun purchases more expensive would somehow harm criminals.

Oops: White House Release Exposes Fake News From New York Times
On Friday morning, the White House released its official summary of an April 21 phone call between President Trump and the newly-elected leader of The Ukraine, and it completely debunked the Times reporting that appeared in a front-page September 26 article.
