Israel-Iran War

June 23: Feckless Margaret Brennan thinks she’s secretary of state.

POLL RESULTS: Worst Media Take of the Week Winner!

After The View made embarrassing headlines last week with moderator Whoopi Goldberg and co-host Sunny Hostin suggesting that it was worse to be black in America than live in Iran, ABC News seemingly appointed chief Washington correspondent Jon Karl to be their babysitter during Monday’s discussion of the U.S.’s strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Karl kept the cast on the rails as…

Talk about getting Jim Cramered. The Atlantic’s pompous loudmouth of a staff writer David Frum committed an unforced error by publicly showcasing how he literally knows nothing about the Trump Doctrine on military strategy or foreign policy.

Monday’s CBS Mornings played the proverbial role of the skunk at the garden party by scoffing at Saturday night’s U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, cheering “several countries across the Middle East” siding with Iran and blaming the U.S. for Iranian strikes this past weekend in Israel.

On CNN This Morning, former Biden/Kamala aide Sabrina Singh, now a CNN commentator, said of the strikes on Iran: "I mean, you cannot deny the professionalism of our military when it came to this operation." Looks like CNN has adopted  "can't deny" as a catchphrase to cover those unfortunate situations where—much as commentators would like to diminish the accomplishments of the Trump…

On CNN's State of the Union on Sunday, commentator Scott Jennings mocked a Democrat for suggesting Iran wasn't a threat by using the phrase "fiery but mostly peaceful Iranian butchers." The Democrat was new CNN pundit Xochitl Hinojosa, who was until recently a spokesperson at Biden's Department of Justice.

Over the course of this second Trump administration, the legacy media selected several poster children for immigration before settling on alleged MS-13 ganbanger and accused human trafficker Kilmar Abrego Garcia. The first of these, though, was Columbia student agitator Mahmoud Khalil- who spent the past several months in ICE custody and was turned into a cause celébre. Now that he’s…

Media reaction to news of the U.S. bombing of critical Iranian nuclear sites was mixed at best, as evidenced by initial Saturday night coverage. Below is a compendium of some of those reactions, which ranged from plain goofy to outright awful. 

The media are trying to collect themselves in the immediate aftermath of Operation Midnight Hammer- the U.S. mission to destroy critical Iranian nuclear facilities at Natanz, Esfahan and Fordow. As we see on CBS’s Face the Nation, some have decided to do the same old thing as always and get wrecked for their efforts.

Speaking with Rachel Maddow, MSNBC's Ayman Mohyeldin suggests that Benjamin Netanyahu "dog-walked" President Trump into attacking Iran.

Minutes after President Trump announced that U.S. airmen had safely left Iranian airspace following successful strikes on Iran’s nuclear weapon enrichment facilities Saturday night, CNN’s Clarissa Ward took to CNN Newsroom to gripe about how Trump threw a “curveball” into the plans of European leaders who wanted to negotiate with the regime. She went further and suggested that…

Hop in the time capsule and set the calendar for the 1930’s. Specifically set the date for September 21, 1930 and then pick up the New York Times. Here’s the headline in the Times that day, replete with the Times-provided capital letters. 

President Trump recently announced that he would give Iran two weeks to agree to a diplomatic solution on its nuclear program before considering whether or not to join Israel’s campaign against it. On Friday’s edition of NBC Nightly News, Andrea Mitchell platformed Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to trash the idea.
