A Fading Star vs. a Rising Star
We’ve heard it all before. In fact, a recording of last year’s State of the Union could have been replayed, saving President Biden a trip to Capitol Hill. Numbers can be selectively used to hide reality and advance one’s political agenda. Both parties do this, but Democrats and their media allies do it better. It’s important to go beyond the claims of success. For example, at the time of Biden…
CNN in Disarray: Lemon’s Sour Ratings, Licht Wants Barkley to Save CNN
Chris Licht’s CNN tenure has been nothing short of a disappointment. Having promised to tone down the laser focus on only a few stories a day, partisan sensationalism, and snark that dominated Jeffrey Zucker’s reign of terror, Licht implied wholesale changes were in order. Not only has he failed thus far, but the inmates remain in charge of the asylum (despite layoffs and the ushering out of…
Don Lemon Exploits Racist Video to Lecture DeSantis on Black History
On Thursday's CNN This Morning, co-host Don Lemon picked up on the story of a group of high school girls in Philadelphia circulating a racist video mocking Black History Month, and exploited it to pontificate against Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis's education policies.
The View Urges Biden Not to Take Pre-Super Bowl Interview With Fox
President Biden nearly busted another presidential norm on Friday by causing drama with the traditional pre-Super Bowl interview with the game’s broadcaster as, this year, it was Fox. He might have taken the advice of ABC’s The View as the cackling coven vehemently opposed him opening himself up to accountability, even accusing anchors Bret Baier and Shannon Bream – respected throughout the…
NBC, NPR Reporters See ‘White Supremacy,’ ‘Food Insecurity’ in Memphis
On PBS’s weekly journalist roundtable show Washington Week, National Public Radio Weekend Edition host Ayesha Rascoe and NBC News’ Ryan Nobles (formerly at CNN) discussed the brutal, fatal attack on Tyre Nichols, expanding from the killing to explore bizarre explanations for the attack by the five black police officers, including “white supremacy,” “food insecurity,” and even bringing up the…
Racializing the Death of a Black Man by the Police, Part 2
Last week we discussed how many on the Left considered the death of a black suspect, Tyre Nichols, following a beating by five Memphis black cops, an example of police anti-black “systemic racism.” Columbia Law Professor Kimberle Crenshaw, a proponent of critical race theory, offered this hysterical perspective: “Anyone who knows the history of enslavement, anyone who knows the history of…
Scientific Am's Woke Decline:Everything's Racist, 'Gender Rights' Rule
Scientific American magazine has been around since 1845, evolving into a reader-friendly purveyor of hard science, a respected, slightly intimidating denizen of supermarket checkout lines. But judging by the recent ridiculous trend of stories and editorials, it’s been wholly captured by the woke blob. On the surface the monthly still does what it says on the label, providing long articles,…
Satan Is So Hot Right Now
This week, the Grammys were held in Los Angeles. They featured a star-studded cavalcade of singers who can’t sing, songsters who require a team of dozens to write their songs and dancers who can’t dance. They also featured a full-on satanic ritual onstage, starring used-to-be-just-a-gay-dude-then-genderqueer-now-gender-nonbinary singer Sam Smith and transgender female (translation: biological…
Meyers Claims Nobody 'Gives A ****' About Twitter-Hunter Hearing
NBC Late Night was not happy with Republicans on Thursday for holding hearings into Twitter’s suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story, claiming “no one actually gives a [bleep]” and trying to pretend that Republicans are greatly upset Twitter took down tweets containing nude photographs of Hunter Biden.
Column: CNN's An Unreliable Source on Conservatives Being Censored
CNN media reporter Oliver Darcy climbed to the mountaintop of shamelessness in his so-called “Reliable Sources” newsletter on February 8 under the heading “The Collusion Delusion.” After CNN spent the Trump years oppressively promoting the Russian collusion theory, now CNN thinks it's a "delusion" to see collusion between Big Tech, the Biden campaign, and the "intelligence community" to…
MSNBC's McCaskill Wails Over GOP Weaponization Committee Hearings
On MSNBC’s Deadline: White House, MSNBC contributor and failed Senator Claire McCaskill had a full blown meltdown over the first hearing by the House Republican subcommittee on weaponization of the federal government on Thursday. While she didn’t express this or any other coherent argument other than throwing out ad hominem attacks, perhaps McCaskill is worried about what the committee might…
'On the Brink': Tucker Mocks 'Diva' Don Lemon's On-Air Meltdowns
As NewsBusters previously reported, CNN’s low-rated morning host Don Lemon has a history of on-air outbursts and privately berating his co-hosts for interrupting him. On Thursday night, Fox News host Tucker Carlson got in on the fun by mocking “diva Don Lemon” for his apparent fragile mental state.
Networks Yawn at ANOTHER GOP Councilmember Killed in New Jersey
On Thursday, Fox News reported that a second Republican council member from New Jersey was assassinated in the span of a week. The first was councilwoman Eunice Dwumfour from Sayreville, New Jersey who was brutally shot and killed outside her townhome on February 1. Over a week later, Republican Milord councilman Russell Heller was killed outside his workplace. For all the leftist media’s…
Mike Pompeo vs. the Libertarians
Former CIA Director and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will probably run for president. People call him a “staunch conservative.” In our extended interview, I give him a hard time about that. “Conservative” once meant promoting limited government. But lately Republicans push new regulations and drive up America’s debt by spending more.
