Media Bias Debate

Una de los anfitriones del programa matutino de Univisión, Karla Martínez, dijo a los televidentes que está "rezando" por el éxito de los decretos o acciones ejecutivas del presidente Barack Obama sobre inmigración.

The New York Times loves legislation that restricts employment-at-will, and it loves to increase penalties for employers who don’t hire and promote in ways favored by federal and state regulators (such as advocating legislation that imposes unlimited emotional-distress and punitive damages for alleged discrimination). But it itself appears to flout those very same federal employment laws. 

Hot Air editor Jazz Shaw offered an excellent piece on Tuesday completely debunking the false claim put forth on the Friday edition of MSNBC’s All In from fill-in host Steve Kornacki that the House Select Committee on Benghazi is the “longest running investigation” of its kind. Hoping to use a bogus chart to bolster his fib, Kornacki stood in contrast to even the liberal site Politifact as they…

It appears Univision and Telemundo will throw just about anyone on TV that will help push their favored side in the Supreme Court battle over President’s Obama’s executive actions on immigration, Texas v. United States. 

MSNBC national correspondent Joy Reid was a panelist in the final hour of the network’s New York primary coverage in the midnight eastern hour Wednesday and astonishingly tried to claim that Hillary Clinton has had to “run essentially for the last 20 years against” the media’s “tide” of negative coverage.

On multiple occasions throughout its New York Primary coverage late Tuesday night, MSNBC couldn’t help itself but ooze enthusiasm at the “excited,” “electric,” and “boisterous” crowd at Hillary Clinton’s victory rally in New York City not far from her campaign headquarters.

In another blow to the U.S. and worldwide economy, chipmaker Intel announced today that it is reducing its worldwide workforce by 12,000 people, a cut of 11 percent. Of course, there are tech-related reasons why the company made the move, most notably the shift by some users to tablets and smartphones, where the company's market penetration has been weak and almost non-existent, respectively, as…

A week after MSNBC’s Hardball host Chris Matthews spared with Sanders campaign chairman Jeff Weaver but later admitted that Sanders stokes his “erogenous zone,” the pair were at it again on Tuesday night as Matthews complained that Weaver was being “so tough” towards Hillary Clinton with “very personal” attacks on her lucrative paid speeches.

Has Newsweek just admitted to something the rest of the press knows but won't acknowledge? In promoting its insufferably fawning portrayal of California Governor Jerry Brown, the weekly magazine tweeted that Brown is "arming California to meet an economic recession head-on." Recession? What recession?

The nation’s top Spanish-language television networks continue to focus on the GOP presidential nominating contest as the nasty one, making only brief mentions of the recent spate of nasty attacks between Sanders and Clinton.

The government reported this morning that seasonally adjusted March housing starts and building permits fell by 8.8 percent and 7.7 percent, respectively, far worse declines than analysts and economists predicted. After the report, the business wires at least communicated the facts accurately, but continued to insist almost to the point of editorializing that there's no reason to be worried…

Univision’s Jorge Ramos once again took full advantage of the opportunity to engage in wholesale Trump-bashing during an Al Punto segment about the new Mexican movie Desierto (Desert), which presents the harrowing fictional story of a gun-toting American vigilante hunting down a group of unauthorized Mexican immigrants as they cross the U.S. border.

Earlier today, Tim Graham at NewsBusters covered a poll done by an Associated Press-led partnership which found that, in AP's words, "Just 6 percent of people say they have a lot of confidence in the media, putting the news industry about equal to Congress and well below the public's view of other institutions." The poll noted that "Nearly 90 percent of Americans say it's extremely or very…

A new poll revealing that Americans overwhelming distrust the mainstream media was unveiled Monday, confirming the biased reporting over at the big three networks has become appallingly apparent to most people. Fox News contributor and Townhall editor Katie Pavlich was a guest along with Juan Williams on The O’Reilly Factor, where she explained how the media’s “agenda” on issues like Ferguson and…
