Saturday at the Associated Press, aka the Admininstration's Press, Josh Lederman ran interference for President Barack Obama's conveniently timed Brexit vote flip-flop. Obama has now reversed his Aoril threat — and yes, it was a threat — that the United Kingdom would go to the "back of the queue" to get a U.S. trade deal if "Leave" supporters won the June 23 vote there on remaining in the…

Stephen Braun and Jack Gillum touted how "key assertions by Hillary Clinton in defense of her email practices have collapsed under FBI scrutiny" in a Tuesday "fact check" for the Associated Press. Braun and Gillum examined several of Mrs. Clinton's key contentions in recent months regarding her e-mail scandal, and detailed the facts contrary to each of her statements. The two also pointed out…

Despite covering both Hillary Clinton’s Tuesday rally with President Obama and her Wednesday speech in Atlantic City, NBC News correspondent/MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell and her colleagues were still harping Wednesday afternoon on their narrative that FBI Director James Comey’s announcement has “overshadowed” Clinton’s campaign and what “was supposed to be a triumphant week.”

Just hours after the FBI recommended Hillary Clinton not be criminally charged by the DOJ, CNN was already dredging up sympathy for Hillary. On CNN Tonight July 5, anchor Don Lemon repeatedly brought up Clinton’s gender in an attempt to show that Clinton was somehow getting harsher treatment than she would if she was a man.

In a decision that has rocked the political landscape, FBI Director James Comey on Tuesday announced that the FBI will not recommend prosecuting Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. This decision to not indict Clinton has been covered by every major network. But in the wake of it, ABC and NBC on Wednesday skimped on coverage of last week’s private meeting between Attorney General…

CNN's Michele Kosinski hit the Obama administration from the left on Wednesday's New Day over not publicly reacting to the FBI's decision to not recommend charges against Hillary Clinton over her e-mail scandal. Kosinski touted "the pictures Hillary Clinton's campaign has been waiting for — the arrival with the President on Air Force One" but bemoaned how "this came after a surreal day in…

There is a classic Latin epigram about double standards that resounds in the aftermath of the FBI's surrender this week to the corruptocracy: "Quod licet Iovi, non licet bovi."

Right off the top of NBC’s Today on Wednesday, the focus of Hillary Clinton not being indicted for her private e-mail servers scandal was not on the FBI Director James Comey’s rebuke of her year-long-plus talking points but instead harping on Donald Trump “crying foul” and hoping that Tuesday marked a chance for Clinton to “finally put the controversy behind” her.

Media Research Center President Brent Bozell on Wednesday explained that even journalists are having a tough time spinning the FBI’s decision not to pursue criminal charges against Hillary Clinton. Analyzing the response, Bozell explained, “What you got from ABC, NBC, CBS, and CNN were variations of ‘she can breathe a sigh of relief,’ which is another way of saying ‘we can breathe a sigh of…

Former Bill Clinton operative turned Good Morning America co-host George Stephanopoulos on Wednesday breathed a sigh of relief as the FBI recommended no criminal prosecution for Hillary Clinton. To be clear, Stephanopoulos offered tough words, calling the findings “scathing” and “blockbuster” in their content. But he also exhaled, “You hear a lot of Clinton allies suggesting that five months from…

Maybe, as the meme says, Donald Trump really is "living rent-free in the heads of the media and liberals everywhere." On Sunday's This Week show on ABC, show host Martha Raddatz read the presumptive GOP nominee's tweet wondering how the FBI could possibly not "recommend criminal charges against Hillary Clinton." Raddatz, while reading the full tweet, said, "against crooked Hillary Clinton." "…

It's a paradox. The liberal media champion themselves as the most open-minded people on planet Earth, with a devotion to the freedom of speech. How can intelligent people be so wrong? In reality, liberal elites have a nasty tendency to dismiss “conservative thought” as an oxymoron. They don’t read conservative books or magazines, and they wouldn’t lower themselves to watching conservatives on…

Univision’s Jorge Ramos tried - but spectacularly failed - to get one of the nation’s top Hispanic evangelical leaders, Rev. Samuel Rodríguez, to sign on to the left’s tireless campaign of calling presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump a racist.

CNN and MSNBC could barely contain their excitement in the moments following Tuesday’s Hillary Clinton rally featuring President Obama on the heels of the FBI deciding not to recommend charges in her e-mail scandal as MSNBC’s Brian Williams and CNN’s Jim Sciutto seemed to be acting as though Obama was still the candidate (and not Clinton).
