Morning Joe: Trump Nominating Too Many ‘Young’, ‘White’, ‘Male’ Judges
On Tuesday’s Morning Joe, economic analyst Steve Rattner used a series of charts and graphs to deliver a supposedly straight, facts-oriented report about President Trump’s federal judicial nominations to date.

LA Times: 'Many Foreign Leaders' Say Trump Leads 'America In Retreat'
The Los Angeles Times reads like a Democratic rag with this headline: “Trump claims he's boosting U.S. influence, but many foreign leaders see America in retreat.” Naturally, that means “many foreign Obama fans and socialists don’t like where Trump is leading.” It took three Times reporters to assemble this “news” report, that China leads the climate-change crusade and Russia has taken over…

NYT’s Passive Coverage of Iranian Protests Draws Mockery, Outrage
As the protests in cities and towns across Iran enter their sixth day, the New York Times has caught a lot of flak in the wake of its passive, often misleading initial coverage of the political uprising, as people rebel against the oppressive state, and shout slogans blaming the government for focusing on Hezbollah and Palestine while ignoring issues at home.

Joy Behar: U.S. on ‘Slippery Slope’ to Becoming Iran

MRC’s Bozell: ‘CNN Is Trying to Trademark Debauchery as Its Brand’
Reacting to the bizarre and cringe-inducing image of a CNN reporter wearing a gas mask as she held an orange bong, Brent Bozell on Tuesday quipped, “CNN is trying to trademark the debauchery as its brand for New Year's Eve coverage.
