Shep Smith Finds Vast Fox Conspiracy to Keep Trump Away from Mueller

Fox News afternoon anchor Shepard Smith told Time magazine a few weeks ago “I think we have to make the wall between news and opinion as high and as thick and as impenetrable as possible. And I try to do that.” Then he goes on television and makes a mockery of his own pledge not to spew opinions. On Wednesday, the Internet lit up when Smith accused his own network of a conspiracy to put a group…

Filmmaker Debuts Play About Malfeasance In Lawsuit Against Chevron

The saga of the environmental crusade against Chevron over pollution in Ecuador will be coming to San Francisco theater this month. Filmmaker and investigative journalist Phelim McAleer co-wrote the play The 18-Billion Prize, with Jonathan Lear.

Sued Again, NFL Accused of Portraying Kneelers as 'Felons'

Free agent football player Eric Reid, who kneeled with Colin Kaepernick in 2016 and again in 2017 in Kaepernick's absence, is now also suing the NFL for collusion. With Reid unable to find a new team in this offseason, news of his lawsuit prompted a Bay Area sports writer to claim the NFL is portraying protesters as "convicted felons."

U.S. Media Mostly Ignore May Day Celebrations of Communism and Fascism

Protests by workers and activists and, in some cases, violence by anarchists marked the far-left holiday May Day this year. But most American news consumers would not have known that some London demonstrators carried communist flags and banners of brutal Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin. They weren’t told that communists marched in Athens, Greece, or that anti-capitalist anarchists destroyed…

Worst of the Month: Freaking Over Fox and Trump’s Threat To Democracy

This past month has seen liberal journalists freak out over Fox New’s growing influence and whine about Donald Trump’s shots at leftist members of the press. They also worried they weren’t fair enough to Hillary Clinton during the campaign, even though one reporter admitted to having “spent a year” on writing a “great story” for the Democratic nominee. The following are the worst attacks against…

#RESIST: New 'Handmaid’s Tale' Urges ‘Get Out in Street and Fight’

Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale returned just last week, but it’s already promising to be an insufferable new season of social justice virtue signaling. While the first couple of episodes introduced a new #Resistance narrative, this week takes things a step further by offering a new face for the movement. Namely, it’s time to meet June’s abortion-supporting, marriage-hating, feminist mother.

ABC Drama: Terrorist Revealed as Libertarian Wanting 'Free Enterprise'

Now that the matter of presidential removal has been covered, ABC’s Designated Survivor can go back to what it’s best at: promoting the liberal agenda. When it’s not overtly defending liberal values, the show usually spends time demeaning political opponents, and this week’s story is probably the dumbest attack I’ve seen this season. Forget ISIS or even Antifa, the real threat to our nation’s…

Matthews Proclaims He’s ‘Hungry for a Verdict’ in Mueller’s Probe

An angry Chris Matthews ended Wednesday’s Hardball by going on a “Trump Watch” diatribe about how he really wanted a verdict in the Trump-Russia probe. Of course, the only outcome he seemed to consider for a verdict was President Trump’s guilt. And bizarrely enough, Matthews admitted his “passion” for a verdict was driven by his recent viewing of a fictitious television series involving Russian…

Meghan McCain Says Scandals Not Working, Trump Polls Are Up (for Him)

On Wednesday's edition of The View, co-host Meghan McCain took a little wind out of the liberal scandal sails by noting Trump was at an "all-time high" in several polls, like 45 percent in an NBC News/Survey Monkey poll. Liberal co-host Sunny Hostin then said she doesn't believe these polls anymore, since Hillary lost.

NBC Pumps Up the Hype for Possible Trump Subpoena Fight With Mueller

The liberal media was all abuzz Wednesday when news broke that President Trump was, once again, shaking up his legal team. Trump lawyer Ty Cobb was retiring and the President was bringing on Clinton impeachment lawyer Emmet Flood. With the switch came predictions that the President was looking for a bloody fight with the special counsel. And with the hype that seemed like it belonged to a major…

UPDATE: Network Hosts Disparage Massive Federal Aid Effort in PR

If you go by what you hear from liberal media outlets, especially Univision, Puerto Rico has received next to nothing in U.S. government aid since Hurricane María struck last September. For partisan political purposes, Democrat politicians like San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz are all too happy to work hand-in-glove with the liberal media in propagating this myth, as was the case during a recent…
