Column: Are Fact Checkers Hammering Biden, Cuomo? NO

February 24th, 2021 6:02 AM

CNN host Brian Stelter tried to insist that the focus of "fact checking" is now on Biden. But he invited on the boss of PolitiFact, and she is not demonstrating that at all. They're busier fact-checking Biden's critics. And he shouldn't have asked about Andrew Cuomo.

CNN 'Fact Checker' Ruled on Biden Lies in Town Hall...But Never on TV!

February 19th, 2021 4:01 PM

CNN's Chris Cuomo previewed their network's Tuesday town hall with Biden by claiming "We're minutes away from history!"

Column: CNN Lies About Trump's Vaccine Plans

January 22nd, 2021 6:02 AM

CNN published a story with the provocative headline “Biden inheriting nonexistent coronavirus vaccine distribution plan and must start 'from scratch,' sources say.” Nonexistent?

Talk about kicking people on their way, literally, out the door . . . CNN's nasty little parting gift for members of President Trump's White House staff was to suggest they might be thieves.
