Coronavirus

In a recent NPR interview with A. Martinez, Kareen Abdul-Jabbar managed to link coronavirus vaccinations with race, particularly Black Lives Matter. His draconian position is that NBA players and staff be removed from the team if they don't get vaccinated. In a vast understatement, Martinez said that to the former NBA player, it's about more than just the vaccine.

After former ABC News political analyst and disgruntled ex-Republican Matthew Dowd announced this past week that he would run for Texas lieutenant governor as a Democrat, CNN and MSNBC both promoted their frequent guest, treating him to interviews that bolstered his vitriol against Republicans.

On Thursday and Friday, CBS Evening News and NBC’s Today show both hyped an outrageous demand from the left-wing National School Boards Association (NSBA) that the Biden administration treat parents protesting at school board meetings across the country as acts of “domestic terrorism.” Rather than call out the extreme overreaction, the networks eagerly touted the wild attempt…

NPR achieved something truly "woke" in a story on Thursday. Jaclyn Diaz wrote an entire story on pregnant mothers and vaccines without ever using the word "woman" or "women," but using "pregnant people" or "pregnant person" seven times. 

A return by the New York Times to its halcyon days of indiscriminate Walmart-bashing? Reporter Chris Colin made the front of Wednesday’s Business Day section with an assault on the retailing giant hidden within a tiresome story of hostility toward Louisiana residents supposedly angry about mask-wearing during the coronavirus pandemic: “‘Every Day Is Frightening’: Working For Walmart…

I want to thank the distributor of my articles, Creators Syndicate, for allowing me to take eight weeks off from writing my weekly column so I could campaign to recall and replace the governor of California. I also want to thank my readers for their patience and willingness to let me pursue that adventure. The recall required 50% plus one of the votes be cast in favor of the recall. To replace…

It’s Week Five of MRC’s newest video series, CensorTrack with TR. This week, we talked about how Big Tech firms often shut down any conversation that doesn’t fit their agenda.

Monday’s evening newscasts were a demonstration of which broadcast networks could follow the Biden administration’s orders the best after Press Secretary Jen Psaki scolding the White House press pool for accurately calling the rollout of COVID booster shots “confusing.” ABC’s World News Tonight and CBS Evening News were good teacher’s pets and omitted the reality from their…

The New York Times has finally discovered that Australia has become a focus of criticism for its heavy-handed, futile fight to eliminate Covid: “Fight Against Covid Rewrites Australia’s Idea of Freedom – Half the country is locked down, but most are willing to sacrifice in pursuit of a freedom from fear.” Yet Sydney bureau chief Damien Cave skipped many of the horrific deals emanating…

Tuesday’s New York Times lead story by Apoorva Mandavilli on Pfizer pushing to get its coronavirus vaccine approved for children was filled with the reporter’s typical coronavirus scaremongering. This time, it was about the dangers it posed to children: “Pfizer Says Shot Safely Benefits Children 5 to 11 – Seeking F.D.A. Approval – Urgency as Cases Rise in Young – Trial Review May Take…

The New York Times’ Sheryl Gay Stolberg made a rare appearance in the Arts section in Thursday’s edition with a worshipful profile of liberalism's current reigning icon of science and reason, Dr. Anthony Fauci, upon the release of a hagiographic documentary, Fauci. Under the cringeworthy social media headline, “Dr. Fauci, Movie Star,” Stolberg hit the typical “brilliant but…

Thursday’s White House press briefing was a barnburner about the border crisis as, at one end, Fox News’s Peter Doocy pushed a perturbed Press Secretary Jen Psaki for answers on Team Biden’s erroneous math about Haitian illegal immigrants, their lax Covid policies, and how women are being allowed to stay as long as they claim they’re pregnant (which led Psaki to imply Doocy was a sexist).

CNN’s favorite bow-tie wearing doctor Peter Hotez is the kind of medical professional CNN likes; the kind who insert politics into everything and jumps at the chance to attack Republicans. Wednesday on CNN Newsroom, Dr. Hotez switched from pediatrician to full on progressive activist, actually demanding the government step in to stop right-wing media and news outlets.

Decades hence, historians laboring to make sense of the Covid years will undoubtedly ask why it took 18 months to deploy our most powerful weapon against the virus -- the open celebrity letter. How many lives would have been saved if, in the early weeks of the pandemic, authorities had tapped the intellect of Anne Hathaway or the insights of Peter Dinklage?
