MSNBC's Alcindor: Fox News Is 'The Fringe Wing of the GOP'
Tuesday's episode of Nicolle Wallace's MSNBC show offered a triple-header of obtuse liberal hypocrisy. Yamiche Alcindor accused Fox News of being a "fringe wing of the GOP," ignoring the fact that she and her MSM cohorts are a key wing of the DNC. Katie Benner of the New York Times said there is "no reason" for Sean Hannity not to testify before the January 6th committee.
Editor’s Pick: Hot Air Tells Media That Dems Losing is Not a ‘Crisis’
On Tuesday, Hot Air’s John Sexton reported: “Everywhere you look, Democrats are warning about the threat to democracy currently posed by Trump or the GOP or some combination of the two.” After citing an absurd New York Times editorial claiming “Every day is Jan. 6 now,” Sexton pushed back: “You’ll get no argument from me that the riots were anything but bad news, but every day is not January 6…
Column: Do We Need a January 6 News Glut?
On the cusp of an absolute glut of liberal-media anniversary coverage of the January 6 riot, CNN media reporter Brian Stelter was cranky. “We live in a world where Donald Trump's top supporters malign the media for being ‘obsessed’ with January 6.” He argued anyone who thinks this story is overdone is someone "best explained by psychologists or therapists or algorithm developers."
New Year Psaki Show: Media Press WH on Voting Rights, January 6
After the first White House press briefing of 2022 was delayed a day because of the snowy weather in the Washington, D.C. area (totally not an omen), Tuesday’s edition of the Jen Psaki Show saw the White House Press Secretary fielding questions from the liberal press that urged President Biden to do more to pass “voting rights” legislation and bizarre suggestions that they had never condemned…
CBS Warns GOP Midterm Wins One of the ‘Top Global Risks’ in 2022
On Tuesday, CBS Mornings co-host Tony Dokoupil and Eurasia Group president Ian Bremmer sounded the alarm over the possibility of Republicans winning big in the 2022 midterm elections, something they hysterically labeled one of “the top global risks” in the year ahead.

Tur Fears ‘Next Election Won’t Be Fair,’ Hopes for 2024 ‘Contingency'
On her Monday afternoon show, MSNBC anchor Katy Tur tried to preemptively claim that elections results in 2022 and 2024 – contests in which Republicans are expected to do well – would be illegitimate.

CNN’s 2022 Resolution: Make Everything an Attack on Democracy
On Sunday, CNN’s so-called “Reliable Sources” rang in 2022 with some New Year resolutions for the media (I guess that makes them News Year resolutions) at the end of the show. But there was only one resolution they wanted to stick to and it was to gaslight their audiences by making everything into a threat to democracy.

MSNBC Panel: Biden An 'Albatross' Around Democrat Necks In 2022!
Tiffany Cross was sipping a New Year's champagne cocktail on her MSNBC show this morning. Perhaps Cross could have used it to wash down a Prozac. Or two. Because the news she was getting from her panel about the 2022 elections was decidedly depressing for liberals like her: Joe Biden is dragging down Democrat candidates across the country. One panelist depicted Biden as an "albatross" on the…

CNN Analyst: 'Too Kind' To Call Trump 'Leader of a Terror Movement'
Lumping Donald Trump with Osama Bin Laden? That's going too easy on the former president!

ABC Fawns for Stacey Abrams' New Kid's Book, Pitch Race for Governor
In a nauseatingly gooey Tuesday interview with election conspiracy theorist and Democratic candidate for Georgia governor Stacey Abrams, the co-hosts of ABC’s Good Morning America heaped praise on the previously failed gubernatorial candidate for announcing her second go at the position, her work as a “major voting rights advocate,” and her eponymous new children’s book Stacey's…
CNN's Harwood: Biden Covid Copout a 'Throwaway Line,' Being 'Polite'
Reacting to President Biden telling governors regarding the COVID pandemic that "there is no federal solution, this gets solved at the state level," CNN's John Harwood says: "I think that was a throwaway line from Biden . . . I don't think he was actually signaling it's not my job anymore, it's your job . . . So I think somewhat more has been made of that little, sort of polite beginning of…
