Some crimes, like the Parkland massacre, earn the full outraged attention of the New York Times, which is fitting. But when Trump wages a rhetorical war on other murderers, like the immigrant gang MS-13 who bludgeon teens to death, the paper responds with hand-wringing explainers like Friday’s front-page corrective suggesting the threat of MS-13 is overblown and surely is unrelated to Obama’s…

If it’s not outright gun control then it’s not helpful. Clearly, Jason Chaffetz did not get the memo, when he encouraged survivors of the Parkland school shooting to find faith in “Jesus.” Luckily, Salon was on hand to condemn any sort of goodwill that didn’t include instituting government policy.  

In the March 1 episode of CBS’s S.W.A.T. titled “Fences,” Hondo and the team find themselves in the middle of the immigration debate in Los Angeles. Given the hot-button issue of DACA, naturally, a DREAMer was spotlighted along the way.

How to Get Away WIth Murder has some pretty interesting ideas on race in America. In the March 1 episode "Lahey v. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania," Annalise (Viola Davis) is headed to the Supreme Court with a big class-action judicial reform case alleging inadequate public representation for black and underpriveleged defendendents. Being a Shonda Rhimes show, this was an excuse for race-baiting…

FX’s profanity-laced hit series Atlanta returns for its second season, and what a nonsensical premiere it was. On top of Katt Williams owning a pet alligator, the new episode introduces us to a new alt-right boogeyman: the Florida Man.

On Thursday's Velshi and Ruhle show, MSNBC hosts Ali Velshi and Stephanie Ruhle continued their anti-gun crusade with Velshi at one point taking almost three minutes to rattle off a list of studies alleging that gun ownership makes people more likely to die earlier. In one case, he made a claim that is easily debunked as he implied that the U.S. has the world's highest suicide rate, blaming it on…

Will & Grace is kind of obsessed with saying that Republicans are secretly gay. Usually, the jokes (and I use the term loosely) are about Mike Pence but, in the March 1 episode "Three Wise Men," they mixed things up by making Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham the targets of their aspersions.

New York Times columnist Bret Stephens penned a column published Thursday that took his Never Trump cause to another level, putting he and like-minded conservatives on-par with anti-communist heroes like Czeslaw Miloz and Vaclav Havel fighting behind the Iron Curtain against the Soviet Union.

After a televised meeting between Republicans and Democrats at the White House in which President Trump championed numerous gun control proposals, the liberal media were enthralled by the President’s efforts. But by Thursday, congressional Republicans were vocal in their opposition to the President’s ideas, and during ABC’s World News Tonight, Chief White House Correspondent Jon Karl bemoaned how…

Two weeks since special counsel Robert Mueller's indictment of 13 Russians for an alleged propaganda assault to interfere with the 2016 campaign, euphoria among liberals has given way to much more sober assessments. Typical of the hot-take reaction on the left to Mueller's indictment was the response of National Public Radio journalists on the NPR Politics podcast on Feb. 16, the same day the…

On Thursday, MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace delivered another hour of breathless panic about Trump’s America, including a segment in which she repeatedly tried and failed to bait former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice into disparaging the President.

Fresh off the U.S. Olympic Committee's boasting of fielding a diversity-rich (if not medal-rich) team at the Winter Olympics comes a new report that college athletics are plagued by a lack of diversity. ESPN contributing writer Richard Lapchick recommends the NCAA intervene directly into the hiring process of colleges and universities, and race hustler Jesse Jackson labels the lack of African-…

As NewsBusters has often reported, people in President Donald Trump’s administration are not fond of the “Fake News” produced by CNN. Judging from a statement made by CNN Tonight host Don Lemon on Wednesday's show, that feeling is mutual and even extends to the Fox News Channel.

During an appearance on the Thursday edition of CNN's New Day, former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci explained that President Trump still hopes to "drain the swamp" but that may be an impossible task because of its "immunological system" designed to "reject a disruptive move." Co-anchor Chris Cuomo responded by effectively comparing President Trump to a virus.
