ABC Declares Impeachment Announcement ‘Historic’, CBS/NBC Hold Back

In contrast to CNN sprinting to bestow the mantle of “historic” onto Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s Tuesday announcement that House Democrats would be starting official impeachment inquiries, there was only one network evening newscast that used the term to glorify the move: ABC’s World News Tonight. Neither CBS Evening News nor NBC Nightly News used that term, with the former cautioning about the harm…

GROSS: Todd SHILLS for Bidens, Lectures GOP Senator for ‘Gaslighting’

Seeing as how his life has been personally enriched by his wife working for Democrats, it’s easy to see why MSNBC’s MTP Daily host Chuck Todd was so adamant about defending the sketchy business career of Hunter Biden. On Tuesday’s show, he emotionally lashed out at Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) as a gas lighter doing harm to American politics for daring to ask questions about the Bidens while…

‘Chanukah Comes Early’: Celebs Salivate Over Impeachment Inquiry

It’s Impeachment Day! Finally! And don’t let anyone dissuade you, this time it’s going to stick.

Sanders Says ‘Billionaires Should Not Exist,’ Ups Wealth Tax to 8%

If politics is like a poker game, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-VT, just raised against Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-MA, by proposing a wealth tax scheme even more confiscatory than hers.

CBS Loves Buttigieg’s ‘Moderate’ Health Care Plan: ‘Pretty Good!'

CBS This Morning journalists on Tuesday credulously promoted 2020 Democrat Pete Buttigieg’s “moderate”-sounding health care plan: “Sounds pretty good,” touted co-host Tony Dokoupil.

35 Months: Media Pushed Impeachment Even Before Trump Took Office

The liberal media have begun yet another round of frenzied impeachment speculation, this time in reaction to anonymously-sourced media reports about a supposed whistleblower complaint that has not been released.

A Tribute to My Mentors

They are all gone now; the men (and one woman) who were major influences in my early journalism career. The last two died within weeks of each other. They were Jack Perkins and Sander Vanocur, both veterans of NBC News where I started as a copyboy. My list of mentors is long. They were famous then, but most likely unknown to younger people today. Their signed pictures hang on my office wall,…
