2016 Presidential

CBS This Morning co-hosts brought on the liberal Alex Wagner, Tuesday, to explain the general “feeling” of mistrust people have for Hillary Clinton. Apparently, it’s due to the “centrism” of Bill Clinton and worry about a lack of progressive commitment from the current Democratic candidate. Atlantic magazine editor Wagner and the others eventually got around to scandal, but a lot of time was…

On Tuesday’s NBC Today, co-host Matt Lauer sarcastically dismissed the political impact of the FBI reopening an investigation into Hillary Clinton’s e-mail scandal as nothing more than a partisan issue: “I’m going to go way, way out on a limb here. I’m going to suggest that perhaps whether people see the [FBI director James] Comey letter as a distraction or significant might fall along party…

ABC’s George Stephanopoulos apparently finds Trump’s tax returns more scandalous than the Secretary of State’s compromised private e-mail server. On Good Morning America Tuesday, Stephanopoulos neglected to ask Clinton’s campaign manager Robby Mook any direct questions about the renewed FBI investigation into her e-mails, and completely neglected to ask any questions about Donna Brazile. Brazile…

On October 21, radio show This American Life featured a song imagining how President Obama feels about “flexing” “demagogue” Donald Trump. 

In what appears to be the height of hypocrisy, Hillary Clinton has now stooped to campaigning with a Univision personality who is famous for groping his female guests on the air.

Uno de los tipos de sesgo mediático más insidiosos ocurre cuando el presentador de noticias -también conocido como ancla- enmarca una noticia neutral de manera viciada. El ejemplo más reciente de esto nos llega a través de la cobertura que Telemundo brindó a la reapertura de la pesquisa del escándalo de los emails de Hillary Clinton por el FBI.

Baby steps, Washington Post, baby steps. On November 1, the Post published yet another long (1,166 words) piece about the NFL’s viewership woes. But unlike the last one, sports columnist Sally Jenkins mentioned the elephant kneeling in the sports newsroom. 

One of the most insidious forms of bias in the media is through anchor framing of an otherwise neutral story. The most recent example comes via Telemundo's coverage of the reopened FBI investigation into the Clinton e-mail scandal.

The liberal media establishment has spent the past 25 years celebrating Clinton as an “icon of American womanhood,” while fiercely attacking those who would challenge her ethics. Far from impeding Hillary Clinton’s career with critical coverage, the establishment media have enabled her political rise with what amounts to a 25-year long infomercial on her behalf: admiring testimonials about her…

Amidst a background of 1960’s sex, drugs, and rock and roll, Good Girls Revolt, an Amazon Original Series, tells the fictionalized story of the female researchers who sued Newsweek for gender discrimination. The heroine is a young liberal feminist named Patti Robinson (Genevieve Angelson) with one ambitious goal – to be a writer at the weekly news magazine, News of the World. The only problem is…

In the wake of the FBI’s announcement on Friday, that they discovered new e-mails possibly pertaining to Hillary Clinton’s private server, the liberal networks have taken every opportunity to slam FBI Director James Comey and cast doubt on his investigation. It was the exact same thing on Monday as ABC, CBS, and NBC joined the “chorus” of Democrats criticizing the FBI Director.

When the outrageous remarks about women Donald Trump made in 2005 became known just before the second presidential debate, the press compiled exhaustive lists of Republicans far and wide who would no longer support the Republican presidential nominee. Will the press compile similar lists of those who won't support Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in light of new developments during the past…

CNN parted ways with commentator and Interim Democratic National Committee Chair Donna Brazile Monday, as yet another batch of damaging e-mails was released by WikiLeaks. According to the e-mails Brazile told Hillary Clinton’s Campaign Chair, John Podesta, that she sometimes acquired access to debate questions and that she’ll “send a few more.” Both CBS and NBC covered to the developing…

CNN senior legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin continued vocalizing his opposition on Monday afternoon to FBI Director James Comey’s Friday letter revealing the discovery of new e-mails in the Hillary Clinton investigation as having “violat[ed]” a “principle” of the Justice Department to not “interfere in elections” but instead “go dark.”
