Humorless NY Times: Babylon Bee ‘No Kind of Principled Conservatism'

New York Times reporter Emma Goldberg profiled the Christian-oriented satirical website The Babylon Bee on Monday and revealed the liberal media can’t get their brains around the concept of conservative humor. The entire story is couched in humorless suspicion: Nicole Hemmer, a research scholar at Columbia University, sees the appeal of the Bee’s comedic sensibility as in line with…

Dan Rather Babble: The Media's Problem with Trump Is Too Much Fairness

Watching the latest Reliable Sources can seem like a never-ending, very repetitive nightmare, where CNN host Brian Stelter is bringing on disgraced liar Dan Rather again for yet another exploration of how President Trump is mentally unstable, and how the press must get him removed from office like a nasty boil.

NYT's Thomas Friedman REALLY Wants This Line to Catch on (It Won't)

Thomas Friedman of the New York Times has developed quite the habit of pointing out President Trump’s supposed lack of shame. Over the past year he’s turned it into something of a catchphrase, busting it out at every conceivable opportunity. It’s unclear why he keeps recycling such a low-impact slogan — perhaps he’s hoping it’ll catch on and others will start repeating it? So far…

Spanish Nets Suppress MASSIVE Anti-Communism Caravan In Miami

If you depend on national Spanish-language news media for news, or on the media that rely on them in order to convey what happens within the community, it is highly likely you never saw coverage of Saturday’s massive anti-communism caravan in Miami, Florida.

NYT's Sanger: Trump’s Declassifications Make Him... An Authoritarian

New York Times national security correspondent David Sanger didn’t mince words in Sunday’s “news analysis”: “Trump Turns Power of State Against Foes, Like an Authoritarian.” (But evidently not “authoritarian” enough to censor Sanger’s crazed criticism?): "President Trump’s order to his secretary of state to declassify thousands of Hillary Clinton’s emails, along with his insistence…

NBC: Trump Stokes Fear While 64% of Supporters Are Hopeful

After ABC Aids Biden on Court-Packing, Chief WH Reporter Bucks

As NewsBusters previously exposed, ABC News was in lock-step with the Biden campaign in trying to cover-up their candidate’s ridiculous, ObamaCare-Esque elect-me-to-find-out-my-position-on-court-packing declaration. And they were back at it again for Sunday’s Good Morning America as they omitted Biden’s Saturday proclamation that Americans “don’t deserve” to know his position on court…

PBS NewsHour Pundits Agree Trump Will Lose on COVID, It's Not Ideology

On Friday's PBS NewsHour, the Week in Review pundits agreed as usual. In this case, they claimed that fighting COVID isn't ideological at all, which enables Republicans to vote for Biden since apparently only he is serious about fighting COVID.

MSNBC Uncovers a Communist: Republican Senator Mike Lee!

MSNBC AM Joy guest host Jonathan Capehart says he invited Stuart Stevens of the Lincoln Project on the show to discuss the tweet by Sen. Mike Lee [R-UT], in which he said, "Democracy isn’t the objective; liberty, peace, and prosperity are. We want the human condition to flourish. Rank democracy can thwart that."

Cuomo: Trump Didn't Get Peace Prize Since He Encouraged Terrorism

CNN's Chris Cuomo concluded Friday's Prime Time by mocking President Trump for not winning the Nobel Peace Prize because, according to his logic, Trump has spent his presidency encouraging domestic terrorism (and therefore lobbying for Joe Biden and the Democrats to win in November).
