Chris Matthews to Giuliani: 'Are You Proud' of Supporting Trump?
Among many moments of smarmy media contempt for Donald Trump during a long election night, Chris Matthews' exchange with former New York City mayor and Trump surrogate Rudy Giuliani was an early contender for most self-righteous.

LA Times: 'Trump is President. What Do We Tell Our Children?'
Donald Trump’s election is so horrifying to liberals, some are struggling to explain the scary monster to their children. A terrified-sounding L.A.

Jonathan Alter Sneers: ‘Decency Lost Last Night’
The liberal sulking over Donald Trump’s win on election night continued on MSNBC, Wednesday. The former editor of Newsweek huffed, “This is so, so dispiriting. I think decency lost last night.

Andrea Mitchell in Mourning: ‘History Put On Hold Yet Again’
On Wednesday’s NBC Today, a distraught Andrea Mitchell was still struggling to come to terms with Hillary Clinton losing the presidential race and sorrowfully lamented: “...late yesterday, her team was still optimistic that they would prevail.

Bozell on the Results: This Was A Massive Repudiation of the Press
The pundits got it all wrong. They believed the media and their spin, not just on the coronation of Hillary Clinton, but more important, on America’s repudiation of Donald Trump.
They saw Trump’s voters just as the Clinton campaign saw them: a basket of deplorables. All season long the pro-Hillary press treated Trump’s followers with utter contempt. At the same time the leftwing media were…
