Media Bias Debate

Pretending to show compassion and interest in the future of conservatism and the Republican Party, Friday’s CBS Evening News and anchor Scott Pelley lectured Marco Rubio for triggering “a crippling civil war” by attacking Donald Trump in Thursday’s debate that “reached lows that many Republicans would say are beneath the dignity of the office that the candidates are seeking.”

At last night's GOP debate, Telemundo anchor María Celeste Arrarás was every bit as biased as we expected her to be. Far from taking pleasure in being right, we mourn yet another missed opportunity.

We've used the metaphor before: this wasn't softball--it was T-ball. In the course of a lengthy interview that aired on Morning Joe today, a sympathetic Joe Scarborough asked Hillary Clinton: "the question is why doesn't anything stick to [Trump] whereas everything seems to stick to Hillary Clinton? It's got to be frustrating for you to see sort of the double standard." Double-standard. Got to…

CNN and MSNBC pundits had no shortage of hot takes following Thursday’s CNN Republican Presidential Debate and among the noticeable talk points was the belief that the spirited debate in Houston caused a “long-term injury” to the party as the five remaining candidates “looked like a bunch of third graders arguing over the monkey bars on the playground.”

In a further sign that the liberal media is trying to determine the outcome of the 2016 Republican presidential primary, Thursday night debate host CNN found it beneficial to conduct two post-debate interviews with Donald Trump that totaled nearly 18 minutes in the first hour after it ended.  

Telemundo anchor Maria Celeste Arraras made her debut in Thursday’s CNN Republican Presidential Debate by not surprisingly touting the liberal line on illegal immigration by pleading with Republican Senator Marco Rubio (Fl.) to keep President Barack Obama’s executive action on young illegal immigrants (known as the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals or DACA). Later, she demanded: “Why does…

In an editorial set to appear in Friday’s print edition, the ultra-liberal New York Times editorial board blasted Hillary Clinton for acting like “a mischievous child” in repeatedly refusing to release the transcripts of her lucrative paid speeches to Wall Street firms. Right from the start of the 664-word piece, the editorial board took offense to Clinton’s canned excuse that “everybody does it…

Telemundo's María Celeste Arrarás, in an interview with Politico's Hadas Gold, confirms our pre-debate analysis and concerns.

The political career of California State Senator Leland Yee, a Democrat who had been running for Secretary of State, came to an abrupt end in March 2014 when the strident gun-control advocate was arrested and charged with "six counts of depriving the public of honest services and one count of conspiracy to traffic in guns without a license." Last week, Yee, who pled guilty last year to "one…

In the context of his pathetic writeup on the government's disappointing report on January new-home sales, Josh Boak at the Associated Press had the nerve to claim that "demand for housing has recovered over the course of the 6 ½-year recovery from the recession." Wow. Who knew that the industry has made it all the way back to an acceptable level at long last? The obvious answer to that question…

Can you imagine if a conservative TV host interrupted a black woman journalist, instructing her to change the way she said something that was not to his linguistic liking? The cries of racial condescension and sexism would echo through the land. So will Chris Matthews pay a price in the liberal media for the way he treated April Ryan on this evening's Hardball? When Ryan, of American Urban Radio…

Hillary Clinton is still sticking to her "I'll show you mine if you show me yours" strategy as the reason she won't release transcripts of her paid speeches to big banks and Wall Street firms. She can do this because outfits like the Associated Press are covering for her. The only recognition of Mrs. Clinton's problem, beyond a strategically segregated story (more on that later), is buried deep…

Yesterday morning, before the Republican Party's Nevada caucuses began, Nate Silver at the inexplicably hallowed FiveThirtyEight blog made a really naive and tone-deaf assumption. He reckoned that the caucuses would be a low turnout event, noting that in 2012, "only 1.9 percent of the voting-eligible population — about 33,000 people — participated in the Republican caucuses in Nevada," and spent…

Here's what to expect as Telemundo anchor María Celeste Arrarás co-anchors tomorrow's Republican presidential debate.
