Bourdain About Reading NYT Op-Ed Page: 'I Wanna F-ing Kill Myself'

On Monday, the transcript of a February interview with CNN host Anthony Bourdain surfaced, and most accounts reported his comments on Bill Clinton: "Entitled, rapey, gropey, grabby, disgusting." But he also said "I read the op-ed page of the New York Times and I wanna f---ing kill myself." Thomas Friedman, Maureen Dowd, and Nicholas Kristof were singled out for mockery.

CNN’s Lemon Doubts We Can Continue to Call Trump the President

Following President Trump’s Monday press conference with Vladimir Putin, CNN had worked themselves into a maddening rage.

Feminist AMC Series Slams Trump: Among 'Very Worst' of Men

If anyone else was tired of the cliché oppression games of last week’s episode, we’re in luck. This week, we jump back into the pure “hating men” narrative of AMC’s Dietland. Because in the world of Dietland, that’s all that matters. That and, apparently, dissing Trump.

Even Vox Mocks Democrats Refusing to Vote for Own 'Abolish ICE' Bill

Just how laughably pathetic do the leftwing Democrats who loudly introduced a bill to abolish ICE appear after they now have to backtrack in embarrassment to oppose it since Republicans agreed to bring it to the floor of the House for a vote?

ABC Pushes Claim Trump Committed 'Treasonous' Act, Speculate Blackmail

During Monday’s edition of World News Tonight, ABC demonstrated what they really thought of President Trump when they pushed political accusations that he committed an act of treason during his press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Boston Globe Outlines NFL's 'Laundry List of Incompetence'

Tara Sullivan's Boston Globe story on the state of the NFL in July 2018 is a misery index, a litany of missteps by a league that can't get out of its own way. Conservatives and progressives can agree on several items on Sullivan's list, but other entries demonstrate the media bias one would expect from the intersection of progressive bias and the Globe.

NYT Sees ‘Far Right’ Voters in ‘Crazy’ GA, Treats Far-Left Dems Kindly

10 Anti-ICE Protesters Get Telemundo Airtime, 164k Latino Jobs Do Not

A rag-tag bunch of 10 protesters calling for the abolition of ICE received feature-coverage treatment on Telemundo, the same network which did not consider the 164,000 Hispanics entering the labor force in June and record-low Hispanic unemployment sufficiently newsworthy to even be mentioned.
