Mika Skeptical of Stephanopoulos as Dem Debate Moderator
Welcome to the club, Mika: file this one under A Liberal Discovers Media Bias . . . Back in 2012, George Stephanopoulos was somehow permitted to moderate a Republican primary debate, and proceeded to harangue frontrunner Mitt Romney on the arcane matter of the right of states to prohibit contraceptive sales, thus abetting the Dems' "GOP War on Women" narrative. Republicans were rightly outraged…

Hillary Pal Stephanopoulos Skips E-Mail Scandal, Conflict of Interest
George Stephanopoulos, a friend of Hillary Clinton and a man who secretly donated $75,000 to the Clinton Foundation, interviewed the Democratic candidate on Monday for Good Morning America. He never mentioned his conflicts of interest or Clinton’s e-mail scandal. Instead, he focused only on horse race issues.

NBC Touts Softball Abedin Interview, Ignores Upcoming FBI Sit-Down
While NBC ignored the news that top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin would soon be taking questions from the FBI about the Democratic frontrunner’s e-mail scandal, Monday’s NBC Today instead chose to gush over the longtime Clinton confidante answering softballs on a liberal podcast.
TV News in March: Trump Gets 5x More Airtime than Cruz
In March, the GOP nomination contest winnowed to essentially a two-man race between frontrunner Donald Trump and Texas Senator Ted Cruz, with Ohio Governor John Kasich trailing far behind. Yet the broadcast networks spent much less time on Cruz and essentially ignored Kasich, giving Donald Trump a whopping 72 percent of the Republican airtime last month. Trump's 267 minutes of coverage was more…
NYT's Calmes Puzzled Why Obama Not Thanked for Saving Blue-Collar Town
New York Times reporter Jackie Calmes got a prominent Sunday front-page spot for a rather humdrum story on economic recovery in a blue-collar Indiana town and why President Obama wasn’t getting the credit he deserved for it. Racism, perhaps? The puzzled headline: “Political Discontent Festers in Indiana Town Despite Jobs Surge.” Online it was more explicit: “Obama Gets Scant Credit in Indiana…
Notable Quotables: Does Castro 'Have a Point' on Health Care?
In the April 4 edition of Notable Quotables the liberal media: Barack Obama’s trip to Cuba inspires journalists to sing communism’s praises and worry about capitalism ruining that country’s “charm.” Meanwhile, anchors at PBS and CBS slam Ted Cruz for his “ugly” anti-terrorism policies and a former New York Times editor decries sexist persecution of “fundamentally honest” Hillary Clinton.
NY Times Hypes NC as Home of Republican Bathroom Bigotry
Carolina was in the mind of the liberal New York Times this weekend. The state’s Republican governor Pat McCrory recently signed religious freedom legislation that included a provision stating people in government buildings must use the restroom associated with their biological sex, the one on their birth certificate. In other words, the way public bathrooms have always worked. The Times,…

AP, NY Times Ignore Hillary's Reference to 'Unborn Person'
Earlier this evening, Curtis Houck at NewsBusters noted how Hillary Clinton committed an obvious gaffe for someone who is supposedly radically pro-abortion. On NBC's Meet the Press, Chuck Todd asked, "When, or if, does an unborn child have constitutional rights?" Mrs. Clinton responded that "the unborn person doesn't have constitutional rights."
The best way to tell when a leftist's gaffe is…

Todd Pushes Hillary as Stephanopoulos Tries to Trap Kasich on Abortion
With Donald Trump's abortion comments to MSNBC's Chris Matthews being the week's top news story, it was a central theme of the Sunday talk shows as two hosts took different approaches with ABC's This Week host George Stephanopoulos choosing to take a page from Matthews in setting a pro-abortion trap for Ohio Republican Governor John Kasich, arguing women and doctors should be criminally charged…
CNN Ties 'Racism' to 'Obama Derangement Syndrome'; Hits Reagan, Bush
On Sunday's Fareed Zakaria GPS on CNN, host Zakaria seemed to be doing an impression of the type of super-biased political panel one would expect to find at MSNBC in the form of four liberals pitted against one moderate Republican and no conservatives discussing the role of racism in opposition to President Barack Obama. New Yorker editor David Remnick charged George H.W. Bush used "racist memes…
USA Today: Obama Commuted Sentences of Only 'Low-Level Inmates'
The antennae went up when I saw the following tease on the front page of Thursday's USA Today print edition: "Obama commutes sentences for 61 low-level inmates." The brief description which immediately followed told readers that "He has cut sentences for 248 so far, more than (the) previous 6 presidents combined, official says."
Hmm. What's a "low-level inmate"? The underlying Page 3A article by…
CNN: 'It's Time to Talk About Black Privilege'...How Wrong That Is
The term “black privilege” is profoundly upsetting to liberals at CNN.com, as reporter John Blake tried to explain it. You can't claim the blacks have advantages today.
"Arguments for black privilege may face a hostile audience as acceptance of the idea of white privilege grows," Blake wrote. "The white rapper Macklemore recently released a song titled White Privilege. The term 'check your…

Irony: CNN's Sellers Bemoans 'McCarthyite-type Attacks' on Hillary
During the panel segment of CNN's State of the Union on Sunday, CNN political commentator and former Democratic State Representative Bakari Sellers (S.C.) complained that Hillary Clinton has been subject to "McCarthyite type attacks" during the campaign and particularly from socialist Senator Bernie Sanders over her close ties to Wall Street.
