As Caleb Hull astutely observed on Twitter, “reporters have to hate their lives when they’re asking their questions and” White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany “starts opening her notes.” On Thursday, McEnany repeatedly turned to that thick binder to school the liberal media. Moments after calling out the tech industry’s censorship of conservatives (and citing MRC TechWatch’s Corinne Weaver…
CNN Analyst Demands Trump Be Blamed In Every Tweet for 100,000 Dead
Democrats and the media are determined to use the coronavirus as a political cudgel against President Trump in the 2020 election. They are not even pretending that they aren’t politcizing the virus anymore. Take for example, CNN legal and national security analyst Asha Rangappa, who tweeted out this crass suggestion, after the coronavirus death toll increased to 100,000 Americans:

CNN’s Lemon Blames Trump for Death of George Floyd in Minneapolis
It started out as reasonable venting during Wednesday’s handoff between Cuomo PrimeTime and CNN Tonight about how the police treat African Americans and how white people should be more receptive. But it all went too far when the latter’s host, Don Lemon blamed the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis on President Trump. On top of that, he and Chris Cuomo asserted that people on the right would…

CNN Parrots Cuomo Distortions to Blame Trump for Nursing Home Deaths
Over the Memorial Day weekend, while Fox News Channel was practicing good journalism by informing its viewers about Governor Andrew Cuomo's dishonesty in trying to blame the Donald Trump administration for the New York Democrat's order to force nursing homes to accept Covid-19 patients, thus leading to more of their residents getting sick and dying, CNN forwarded the Cuomo administration's…

Blitzer Marvels at Bash’s ‘Excellent,’ Social Distance Biden Interview
Tuesday’s Dana Bash-Joe Biden interview was embarrassing and pathetic to begin with for CNN, but things got even dumber right after it first aired. On The Situation Room, host Wolf Blitzer spent over six minutes boasting of how not only was it an “excellent interview” with Biden’s “very strong words” for President Trump, but how socially distanced the interview was.
A bevy of bloggers on the right have highlighted one of the most dramatic examples of comparative coronavirus bias: Those reckless southern Republican governors in Georgia or Florida who allegedly love commerce more than human lives, versus New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, our apparent national lodestar of competence. One side gets the heat, the other gets his press conferences broadcast live…

Prop-Twirling, Quarantine-Flouting Cuomo Lashes Out at ‘Fools’
Hypocrisy must have been the main course at CNN host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo’s Memorial Day barbeque, because he was serving up leftovers during Tuesday’s edition of Cuomo PrimeTime. Cuomo, the guy who beclowned himself by twirling around giant cotton swabs and flouted his coronavirus quarantine when he knew he was infected, bashed President Trump with accusations of playing games and those who didn’…
Naturally, Trump-hating and fear-loving CNN served Tuesday as Joe Biden’s first in-person interview since the coronavirus pandemic began and, right on cue, chief political correspondent Dana Bash fulfilled her role as a real-life Bashful, liberal foot solider, and citizen of Zuckerville. Between softball questions and assisting Biden in touting anti-Trump conspiracy theories, it was mission…

CNN Analyst to McEnany: How Many Deaths Are Okay for WH by November?
CNN political analyst and Politico writer Ryan Lizza decided during Monday’s briefing to follow girlfriend Olivia Nuzzi from April 27 and ask a snarky question about how many deaths would be acceptable to the White House in terms of President Trump’s reelection prospects. The only difference here was Nuzzi tried to trap Trump whereas Lizza’s verbal grenade was lobbed at White House Press…

CNN Averaged 4 Minutes Per Day on Biden's Gaffe, Then Stopped Covering
As Fox News noted on Friday, it took CNN 12 hours to cover Biden’s latest gaffe: asserting on a radio show Friday morning that if you aren’t a Biden supporter, “You ain’t black.” That disinterest continued into the weeked; after spending average of less than four minutes per day on the controversy, CNN stopped covering it entirely as of noon EST on Monday, May 25.

Stelter Insists Media Acts in 'Good Faith,' As He Proves He Doesn't
CNN Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter said something fascinating on his show Sunday. He complained to New York Times media columnist Ben Smith that "I don't know how to show folk that journalists are mostly acting in good faith. Here's how a show allegedly focused on journalism fails to show good faith. Stelter had on a writer from The Atlantic to discuss the coronavirus and never whispered a…

CNN Brands President Trump a Hypocrite for Not Attending Church
A president can be an ardent defender of religious freedom without being overtly devout himself. But that didn't stop CNN from branding President Trump a hypocrite for having not attended church this weekend while having recently promoted the re-opening of houses of worship.
Why Doesn't CNN Care When Anonymous Sources Give Them Fake News?
Far too much Washington journalism is reliant on anonymous sources, and the public has no earthly idea of the agendas and ideologies of the "senior government officials" or just "sources" who can be used to ruin a presidency or a congressional career. Larry O'Connor at Townhall threw a strong headline at Team Zucker: "CNN Was Used to Spread Lies And They're Just Fine with That."
Cuomo Brings on Discredited FL Employee to Spread Conspiracy Theory
Apparently, when he's not violating basic journalistic ethics by interviewing and goofing around his brother, CNN's Chris Cuomo thinks a productive use of his show is to bring on conspiracy theorists who pretend to be whistleblowers. That is, so long as they don't blow the whistle on his brother Andrew.
