Blitzer Marvels at Bash’s ‘Excellent,’ Social Distance Biden Interview

Tuesday’s Dana Bash-Joe Biden interview was embarrassing and pathetic to begin with for CNN, but things got even dumber right after it first aired. On The Situation Room, host Wolf Blitzer spent over six minutes boasting of how not only was it an “excellent interview” with Biden’s “very strong words” for President Trump, but how socially distanced the interview was.

Column: New York Media Corona-Coddle Cuomo

A bevy of bloggers on the right have highlighted one of the most dramatic examples of comparative coronavirus bias: Those reckless southern Republican governors in Georgia or Florida who allegedly love commerce more than human lives, versus New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, our apparent national lodestar of competence. One side gets the heat, the other gets his press conferences broadcast live…

Prop-Twirling, Quarantine-Flouting Cuomo Lashes Out at ‘Fools’

Hypocrisy must have been the main course at CNN host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo’s Memorial Day barbeque, because he was serving up leftovers during Tuesday’s edition of Cuomo PrimeTime. Cuomo, the guy who beclowned himself by twirling around giant cotton swabs and flouted his coronavirus quarantine when he knew he was infected, bashed President Trump with accusations of playing games and those who didn’…

Loyal Lackey: CNN’s Bash Goes Soft on Biden, Helps Push Conspiracies

Naturally, Trump-hating and fear-loving CNN served Tuesday as Joe Biden’s first in-person interview since the coronavirus pandemic began and, right on cue, chief political correspondent Dana Bash fulfilled her role as a real-life Bashful, liberal foot solider, and citizen of Zuckerville. Between softball questions and assisting Biden in touting anti-Trump conspiracy theories, it was mission…

Nets Tout Biden Ripping Trump as ‘Absolute Fool’ for Criticizing Mask

The liberal media clutch their pearls when President Trump levels criticisms, nicknames, and insults against his political opponents. But when it’s the other way around, they celebrate it.

Virus Deaths Hit Low, But Todd: Asks How Much 'Worse' Can It Get?

How deep in the partisan bag is Chuck Todd? Imagine a Democrat president presiding over the coronavirus epidemic. Now imagine daily US deaths plunging from 2,701 on May 6th, down to 504 yesterday. Todd would be breaking into live coverage to trumpet the good news. So how did partisan hack Chuck Todd react to that news today?

Name-Calling

Writing and making public one’s opinions guarantees people will respond. Writers, performers and every human likely desire his or her thoughts, and even their life, to matter to others. The alternative is to become hermits. Like other opinion writers I get my share of positive and negative letters, but during the Trump administration the level of invective for those questioning anything the…

CNN Analyst to McEnany: How Many Deaths Are Okay for WH by November?

CNN political analyst and Politico writer Ryan Lizza decided during Monday’s briefing to follow girlfriend Olivia Nuzzi from April 27 and ask a snarky question about how many deaths would be acceptable to the White House in terms of President Trump’s reelection prospects. The only difference here was Nuzzi tried to trap Trump whereas Lizza’s verbal grenade was lobbed at White House Press…

Podcast Host Unverified After Interviewing Controversial GOP Candidate

Twitter’s terms of service say the platform doesn’t need a reason to terminate users or meddle with user content, and it appears its warning was no bluff. Josh LeKach’s show Wrong Opinion engages with anti-establishment and radically pro-free speech figures. His twitter verification badge was stripped after he interviewed Florida congressional primary candidate Laura Loomer.

'View' Brings on Clyburn to Defend Biden After He Makes Racist Comment

The View protected Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden for over a month after his former staffer accused him of sexual assault. But after Biden made a racist comment about black voters in an interview last week, the hosts decided to address it and brush it under the rug as quickly as possible, by bringing on a black Democrat ally of Biden’s to do damage control for him.

NBC Gently Describes Biden as ‘Rusty’ for ‘You Ain’t Black’ Gaffe

After the long Memorial Day Weekend, ABC and CBS hoped you had forgotten about Joe Biden’s “you ain’t black” gaffe. The two networks on Tuesday avoided a recap of the presumptive Democratic nominee’s insistence that you can’t be African American and vote for Donald Trump. On the Today show, however, Andrea Mitchell gently brought the topic up, describing Biden as “rusty.”

MSM Crows that WHO Is Suspending (Zinc-Free) Hydroxychloroqune Trials
