Ezra Klein: Media ‘Increasingly Biased' on Trump, and He Deserves It

It’s often noted that Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are the most disliked presidential nominees in a long, long time. Vox’s Klein claimed in a Tuesday piece that their unpopularity extends to the media, especially in Trump’s case. “While it’s ridiculous to suggest the media likes Hillary Clinton — her relationship with the press is famously, legendarily toxic — the media is increasingly biased…

NYT Bias by Omission Helps Clinton Campaign and Obama Legacy on Coal

The New York Times did its part for the Hillary Clinton campaign (and President Obama’s legacy) in Thursday’s edition, offering happy talk about lost coal jobs in Kentucky, skipping over some inconvenient facts that would cloud the pro-Democratic narrative, while another story bashing Donald Trump’s tax plan passed up a golden opportunity to revive Clinton’s infamous “dead broke” comment.

The Silent Slaughter: Media Turns Its Back on Christian Genocide

Words cannot express how profoundly disturbing it is that the mainstream media refuses to address the Christian genocide currently underway across the Muslim world.

New Yorker: 'Libtard' Is Rush's 'Favorite Epithet'; He's Never Said It

Ronald Reagan was fond of saying, "It isn't so much that liberals are ignorant. It's just that they know so many things that aren't so." One of the things that liberals "know that isn't so" is that conservative talk radio hosts are all crude people who routinely hurl racist, sexist, homophobic and other epithets over the airwaves. This would explain why the layers of fact-checkers and editors at…

USA Today Notes 'Big Jump' in Health Costs on Page 1, Leaves Out Obama

USA Today put the latest troubling signs of private insurers bailing out of Obamacare on the top of the front page Wednesday.
