On Monday’s PBS News Hour, Fred de Sam Lazaro reported from the Twin Cities on what co-anchor Amna Nawaz solemnly described in her introduction as “a surge of anti-Muslim rhetoric and xenophobia in political ads and speeches” as the midterms loom, as part of the program’s occasional “Race Matters” series.

On Election Night, PBS News Hour reporter William Brangham talked to Colin Jackson of Michigan Public Radio Network and spread the “Islamophobia” smear while discussing the U.S. Senate race in Michigan, won by radical Democrat Abdul El-Sayed.

The morning after Democrats gained control of Congress, NBC’s Wednesday edition of Today was especially excited over two Senate races in particular. Meet the Press host Kristen Welker and correspondent Ryan Nobles both hyped the alleged fact that Kansas’s Adam Hamilton is a “moderate” and barely even a Democrat. Meanwhile, Nobles also tried to praise Michigan’s Abdul El-Sayed for overcoming “…

HBO’s John Oliver used Sunday’s edition of Last Week Tonight to give viewers one last pep talk before the midterms that included assuring them that Democratic trickery in Alaska is nothing to be concerned about. Oliver also warned that Republicans are obsessed with “Islamophobia” and “transphobia” and that “the level of bigotry this year has been truly ugly.”

Comedy Central’s Monday host of The Daily Show, Jon Stewart, and NBC’s Late Night host, Seth Meyers, both attacked Michigan Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens for endorsing Republican Mike Rogers in the state’s Senate race. In terms of the reasoning behind Stevens’s decision, Meyers completely omitted any talk about concerns over anti-Semitism, while Stewart tried to have it both ways.

You knew Morning Joe would criticize Democrat Haley Stevens for endorsing Republican Mike Rogers in the Michigan senate race. But the show took it to another, vile level today with an ugly insinuation.

On Wednesday's Morning Joe on MS NOW, co-host Joe Scarborough excoriated HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over a speech he gave in Michigan this week in which he blamed the Muslim Brotherhood for the scarcity of Muslim Arab scientists who have won the Nobel Prize.

MS NOW host and Friday PBS News Hour contributor Jonathan Capehart spun so hard on behalf of Democrats on Friday it is amazing he didn’t fall out of his chair. According to Capehart, the only reason the country is talking about the Alaska Senate race is not because of dirty tricks by Mary Peltola and Decoy Dan Sullivan, but because President Trump and the DOJ are investigating said dirty…

On Thursday, NBC’s Late Night host, Seth Meyers, continued late night comedy’s effort to ignore the substance behind GOP attacks on Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed’s radical past and insist that, instead, they are just “truly vile, gutter racism.”

On Wednesday, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel continued his efforts to help Democrats win next Tuesday in two ways. First, Kimmel used his monologue to defend Michigan’s Abdul El-Sayed and Texas’s James Talarico from accusations of radicalness. Second, Kimmel welcomed California Gov. Newsom to spread conspiracy theories about the election and to resurrect the myth that Trump wants Iran to bomb the state.…

On Monday's Morning Joe, MS NOW host Joe Scarborough accused Fox News anchor Bret Baier of parroting hate against Abdul el-Sayed and cheered the Michigan Democrat's evasive response to his question about having connections to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Jon Stewart continued his efforts to drag Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed across the finish line on Monday’s edition of The Daily Show on Comedy Central. Echoing a recurring theme on the show, Stewart tried to pass off concerns about El-Sayed and his radical associations as “Islamophobia.”

ABC, CBS, and NBC turned their lead Monday morning newscasts into hyper-active spin sessions for their liberal candidates of choice — particularly Michigan Democrat and “unabashed progressive” Abdul el-Sayed — and smear campaigns against President Trump for “intensifying his attacks” toward “a much darker turn” with “inflammatory and false attacks” on el-Sayed.

As France deals with another round of rioting, some people have blamed the country’s immigration policies for the violence. Others have blamed left-wing agitators, but on Wednesday, AP reporters Sylvie Corbet and Joseph Wilson penned an article for the fact-checking section that insisted that neither is to blame. Instead, they insisted the violence is a result of ordinary criminals trying to…
