After hiding the Joe Biden sexual assault story for weeks, the networks caved and finally reported the accusations by Tara Reade. But while the ABC, CBS and NBC morning and evening shows have now reluctantly covered the claim itself, they have ignored or downplayed important circumstantial evidence that corroborates Reade’s shocking allegation against the presumptive Democratic presidential…

During an exclusive live interview on ABC’s Good Morning America on Tuesday, Joe Biden struggled to answer surprisingly challenging questions from co-host George Stephanopoulos about the controversy swirling around the Michael Flynn case. Meanwhile, the presumptive Democratic nominee escaped the conversation with only 39 seconds spent on Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegation against him.

On Friday, audio of former President Barack Obama blasting the Trump administration’s coronavirus response during a phone call trying to drum up support for the Biden campaign was leaked to Yahoo News. Over the weekend and through Monday morning, the three broadcast networks repeatedly hyped the nasty, partisan attack without one word of criticism for Obama’s unseemly rhetoric.

Lefty group Priorities USA Action disgustingly continues to put its billionaire funding from George Soros and Donald Sussman to dubious use launching ads exploiting the coronavirus to attack the president. Newly released data from Advertising Analytics showed that another 30-second Priorities USA Action anti-Trump attack ad, with the spot title “First,” lead all 93 political TV ads about the…

You can say goodbye to the #MeToo movement. It had a good three-year run, but inevitably, hypocrisy and political expediency caught up with it.  

In a new interview with Isaac Chotiner of The New Yorker, MSNBC host Chris Hayes launched into an attack on President Trump and his supporters as having a "sociopathic casualness" to the coronavirus death toll, so "horrifying and enraging" it was "almost insanity-inducing."

Reporter Maggie Astor profiled several young conservatives for her full-page lead National story in Thursday’s New York Times: “For Young Republicans, Abortion Fight Remains a Deal Breaker.” The framing of that headline is so strange. At first glance, one could easily think the “deal breaker” refers to the abortion issue being an electoral problem for the Republican Party, as liberal young people…

Did MSNBC Legal Analyst Jill Wine-Banks somehow think it wouldn’t be controversial or a stain on her objectivity to fund presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s campaign? Federal Election Commission records show that Wine-Banks contributed the maximum FEC-allowed $2,800 to Biden’s campaign March 10. Her contribution to Biden makes any of her analysis of the Trump administration…

As former Senate staffer Tara Reade gave her first on-camera interview detailing her sexual assault allegation against Joe Biden on Thursday, neither ABC’s World News Tonight that evening nor Friday’s Good Morning America mentioned the important development. While NBC and CBS did cover the story, both networks framed Reade’s public comments as a “response to Joe Biden’s strong denial.”

Has the pandemic caused the liberal media to lose whatever vestigial grip on reality it ever had? The question arises in light of a surreal conversation on today's Morning Joe between Mika Brzezinski and Eugene Robinson. The pair were discussing Robinson's latest Washington Post column, the gist of which is that Democrat campaign tactics are too nice, being based on "reason and fairness." 

Late Night host Seth Meyers long ago shed the role of comedian who will mock both sides. He then shifted to political activist. If Wednesday’s show is any hint, the constant isolation and staying at home may be turning him into a far-left conspiracy theorist. Talking to liberal author Sarah Kendzior, Meyers hinted at a dark future for America:

Insufferable CNN-labeled “Republican strategist” Ana Navarro continued to prove why she’s the farthest thing from a “Republican strategist.” She funded the campaign of presumptive Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden. Federal Election Commission records show that Navarro contributed $250 February 29, to Biden. Three days before the recorded donation, Navarro said on Twitter: “Oh, Jesus. He is…

The New York Times is publishing some incredible commentary this week supporting Joe Biden with absolutely zero consideration of whether he sexually assaulted staff member Tara Reade on Capitol Hill in 1993. First, longtime Times reporter Martin Tolchin argued "I want a coronation" of Biden -- not "justice," just "a win." Then on Wednesday morning came this article by feminist Linda Hirshman: "I…

It exposed just how warped their news judgment was. While America was still suffering from the coronavirus and with new symptoms appearing in children, CBS Evening News set aside time Wednesday to fawn for former First Lady Michelle Obama’s new documentary and hype Democratic calls to have her become Joe Biden’s running mate. There was no mention of the rape allegation against the presumptive…
