MS NOW Fails At Fact-Checking Trump On St. Paul Church Storming

MS NOW White House correspondent Jake Traylor joined Tuesday’s Ana Cabrera Reports for a textbook example of how aspiring reporters should not do their job. Within the span of only one minute, Traylor would display an obvious hypocrisy on the usefulness of anecdotal stories and fail to fact-check President Trump on Sunday’s St. Paul church storming, because it was Traylor who needed…

CNN's Martin Luther King Day Interview Turns Into Attack On Trump

Would the liberal media stoop to exploiting Martin Luther King Day to push their own left wing agenda? Rhetorical question. Monday on CNN's Inside Politics, Host Audie Cornish did exactly that, during an interview with Democrat Congressman Troy Carter from Louisiana.

Lemon Defends Anti-ICE Mob Storming Church of ‘White Supremacy’

On Monday, disgraced former CNN host Don Lemon joined Jennifer Welch on the I’ve Had It Podcast News to double down on his Sunday stunt with an anti-Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) mob to storm a Twin Cities-area church, arguing he was merely “a journalist” observing a group doing what was akin to “sitting in at lunch counters” during the Civil Rights movement” or the story…

Network Newscasts Downplay Minneapolis Church Incursion

On Sunday, former CNN anchor Don Lemon joined an anti-ICE protest group that stormed a Minneapolis church, disrupting the service and in the process violating worshippers’ right to freely exercise their religion as protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.

CBS’s ‘60 Minutes’ Airs Predictably Partisan, Pro-Mob Story on ICE

Sunday’s 60 Minutes should be the clearest sign yet that little has changed at CBS News under editor-in-chief Bari Weiss as, despite the apocalytpic claims from so-called “media reporters,” they’re still churning out partisan drivel. Along with airing the story on the El Salvadoran jail CECOT (which was nearly identical to the one Weiss held up last month), 60 Minutes opened…
