Racism

On Wednesday, MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchell feared that President Trump’s criticism of China’s mishandling of coronavirus amounted to a “resurgence of xenophobia” and “anti-China scapegoating.” She even cast doubt on U.S. intelligence warning that the communist regime was looking to hack organizations conducting medical research on the pandemic.  

Throughout the 1970s, people from the women’s liberation movement hurled many accusations of racism and even collusion with the Ku Klux Klan at conservative opponent Phyllis Schlafly. The latest episode of Mrs. America from FX on Hulu, made those claims again in “Bella,” with one characters saying Schlafly was “in bed” with the Klan. However, the show fails to substantiate those claims. And…

Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer appeared on The View Wednesday for a mostly easy interview full of softballs from the sympathetic liberal hosts, mostly about her response to COVID-19. It seemed the interview was just another opportunity for Whitmer to bash critics of her lockdown policies as violent racists. In fact, Meghan McCain was the only host to push back on the Democrat’s hateful…

On Thursday's Amanpour & Co. on PBS and CNN International, NPR weekend anchor Michel Martin prodded The New Yorker's Evan Osnos to suggest that Donald Trump supporters are racists even if they don't like to admit it. He also hinted that they vote racist because they support a President whose actions "explicitly, demonstrably, measurably harm people of color."

On the late Tuesday/early Wednesday Late Night show on NBC, host Seth Meyers demonstrated that he is so anti-Republican, he devoted an entire commentary to complaining about Democrats who laud former President George W.

Media attacks on NBA legend Michael Jordan continue after his refusal in ESPN's Last Dance documentary to join the LeBron James generation of social justice warriors.

On Sunday's PoliticsNation, as MSNBC's Al Sharpton hosted a discussion of the push to reopen the economy and how doing so might effect minorities, MSNBC contributor Zerlina Maxwell theorized that those pushing to reopen want to do so because they learned that minorities are disproportionately impacted by the coronavirus.

On Saturday's PoliticsNation show, MSNBC host Al Sharpton devoted a segment to claiming that President Donald Trump has stoked up racism against Asian-Americans by accurately linking the COVID-19 virus to China. He also incorrectly claimed that President Trump had not spoken out against anti-Asian racism even though the President did so not only on Twitter but also in one of his televised press…

"Racists Are Going To Racist, And This Pandemic Is No Different," blared the headline on Twitter. "‘Reopen’ Protests Are Motivated By Racism, Lack of Concern for Black and Brown Lives," screamed the cover title. A helpful subtitle explained, “This op-ed argues that the calls to ‘liberate’ America are rooted in white entitlement.” All courtesy of everyone's favorite childish social justice warrior…

The farcical New York Times dealt with the question of re-opening our coronavirus-devastated economy by stoking progressive alarmism about racial and economic “inequality.” The Times published a preposterous story headlined with a false equivalency, “Job or Health? Restarting the Economy Threatens to Worsen Economic Inequality.” Author Jim Tankersley grumbled in the sub-headline that “The…

As a teenager, Justin Rohrwasser had a symbol tattooed on his arm that has since been adopted by a white supremacist group. The former college place-kicker was drafted by the New England Patriots over the weekend, and said Saturday he does not associate with that group and he will cover up the controversial tattoo. Guilty until proven innocent, says self-appointed "white supremacist cop" Jemele…

During a nearly six-minute long report on Friday, NBC’s Today show tried to directly lay blame for “growing discrimination” against Asian American at the feet of President Trump. The coverage suggested that Trump’s use of the phrase “Chinese virus” in the early days of the pandemic inspired hate crimes across the country.

Feminist matriarch Betty Friedan may have never actually called Phyllis Schlafly “The real wicked witch of the [women’s] movement,” but that’s certainly how Mrs. America is portraying Schlafly in the new series.
