Daniels: Dems Should Focus On Kitchen Table Issues Like Trans Kids
Even by the low standards of MS NOW, senior Washington correspondent Eugene Daniels’s Thursday appearance on Chris Jansing Reports was a stellar example of how not to do journalism. Daniels’s title suggests that the network views him as a reporter, but he decided to go full activist. According to him, Democrats need “to be more comfortable with power” and that the party needs to…

MS NOW's Wild Spin: GOP Seeks 'Decimation of Black Political Power'
On Saturday's The Weekend, MS NOW displayed overt hypocrisy by having on House Minority Whip and Congresswoman Katherine Clark (D-MA) to complain about Southern Republicans cutting Democrat-leaning seats when her own home state has shut out Republicans from all its congressional districts since the 1990s.
Sharpton Voting Rights Vision: 'Protect Your Lifestyle' of Dependence
In Saturday’s episode of MS NOW’s The Weekend: Primetime, Rev. Al Sharpton offered one of the clearest — and most depressing — expressions of a certain strain of modern progressive thinking.

MS NOW Analyst: GOP Moves = 'American Version of Apartheid'
In a wildly inflammatory segment on Saturday's edition of The Weekend: Primetime, MS NOW analyst Basil Smikle declared Republican-led redistricting and other moves tantamount to “an American version of apartheid.” Earlier in the segment, law professor James Sample admitted that the Virginia Supreme Court’s decision striking down the Democrat mid-decade power grab was “probably right on the law…
CNN Lets Virginia Rep Lecture GOP on Jim Crow, Never Mind His Party
On Friday's CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish gave Rep. James Walkinshaw (D-Va.) free rein to lecture Republicans on the evils of partisan redistricting, complete with hyperbolic comparisons to Jim Crow poll taxes and literacy tests.
