Campaigns & Elections

Applause broke out from at least one person on MSNBC as Joe Biden picked Kamala Harris to be his vice presidential nominee. The network turned to MSNBC analyst Claire McCaskill, a former Democratic senator. Brian Williams breathlessly reported the breaking news: “ I am just being told we have a pick and it’s Kamala Harris of California.” 

When Democrats make unethical decisions those controversies get ignored by the media. And if that doesn’t work, then their scandal gets swept under the rug and they’re hailed as heroes. With a new book out, it’s disgraced former Democrat congresswoman Katie Hill’s turn to get the media makeover. 

Joe Biden has not yet announced his vice presidential pick yet and MSNBC is already “game planning” how to fight the sexism and racism that is most definitely going to follow. (They assure us.) In an attempt to make any criticism of this mysterious candidate unacceptable, host Christ Jansing on Tuesday talked to liberal She the People founder Aimee Allison. 

Rob Reiner really needs to calm down. The veteran actor and director of When Harry Met Sally is seeing red at yet another Trump decision, saying that the President’s desire to hold his re-election acceptance speech at Gettysburg battlefield is a “dogwhistle" for "white supremacy."

On Monday’s New Day, CNN co-host John Berman and guest host Erica Hill brought on Democratic Party hacks Angela Rye and Paul Begala to gush over Joe Biden’s vice presidential candidates without discussing their serious flaws. Begala in particular raved over the nominees by claiming that “all of these women on this list are just phenomenal, they're remarkable.”

On Morning Joe, Eugene Robinson of the Washington Post and MSNBC, commenting on the fact that Canada and the Bahamas, because of the coronavirus, are not permitting US residents to enter, says, "we are pariahs. We are, we are the s-hole country that nobody wants people from. That's us now."

The leftist press are always coming to the defense of Black Lives Matter. Conservatives daring to criticize them as looting, rioting, and crime are on the rise are desperate fearmongers. On Monday, Politico reporters Laura Barron Lopez and Alex Thompson penned an article titled "Facing bleak November, Republicans look to stoke BLM backlash."

In a pair of doting news reports from the CBS Evening News and NBC Nightly News on Monday, both of these defenders of Joe Biden tacitly admitted to viewers that they planned to only cover his pick for running mate favorably; refusing to be critical or vet them. They also suggested that being critical would be sexist and racist.

There’s media bias and then there’s agenda-setting propaganda designed to crush opposition. That’s what MSNBC has become. On Sunday morning’s AM Joy, guest host, and the Clinton campaign’s Director of Progressive Media, interviewed her former boss Hillary Clinton.

On Saturday evening’s Politics Nation, Biden-backing MSNBC host Al Sharpton railed against President Trump by insisting that he fears women and minorities. Unsurprisingly, the egregious claims about Trump were all to prop up Joe Biden’s campaign.

Joe Biden has not announced his running mate yet, but already liberal activist groups, Democratic politicians, and their media allies are laying the groundwork to label criticism of the vice presidential nominee as racist and sexist. In interviews with Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar and California Rep. Barbara Lee on Monday, MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell wondered what could be done to prevent this…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough predicts that for "quite some time" there will be a "line" of future Democrat presidents, explicitly including Kamala Harris. Scarborough also foresees Republicans being in the minority for a "generation."

Some journalists in the media aren’t even pretending to hide they are Democrat activists, anymore.  From his MSNBC pedestal Sunday, Ali Velshi actually berated viewers to vote Democrat in November or be complicit in America’s misogyny towards women. If that wasn’t bad enough, he went on to literally beg Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett to tell the media how to report on Biden’s female VP pick.…

Becket Adams at the Washington Examiner nailed the current pattern of Biden coverage under the headline "Media offer a glimpse of what journalism will look like under President Biden: Subservient."
