UN-HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Why Do Journos Hate This Holiday So Much?
Over the years the MRC has tracked liberal journalists’ hatred of this very American holiday and how they’ve tried to ruin it for everybody. The following are some of the most egregious examples of lib journos attempts to wreck Thanksgiving.
Fox Underlines New York Times Sympathy for Illegal Alien ID Fraudster
On Tuesday's Fox & Friends, the show highlighted a New York Times article about a thrice-deported illegal alien who financially ruined an American citizen by stealing his identity so he could work, with the Times bizarrely showing sympathy for the illegal alien.
OOPS! Hurricane Disaster Media Said Was Coming In 2025 Never Happened
Remember how the media were adamant that the U.S. was due for a climate change-caused deluge of catastrophic hurricanes this year? Well, as the Al Gore effect goes: it never happened.
God Talk: NY Times Standards Editor Compares Trump to the Golden Calf
Patrick Healy changed jobs this year at The New York Times from Deputy Opinion Editor to Assistant Managing Editor for Standards and Trust. This is a little funny for me, since Healy once asked me on a panel discussion "What do you have against democracy?" This week, he interviewed two Times religion reporters for an article titled "How Two Times Reporters Cover Christianity in a…
NY Times Ridiculously Calls Hamas-Linked CAIR a 'Civil Rights Group'
Houston bureau chief J. David Goodman sounded aggrieved in his Texas-based story in Wednesday’s paper, “Texas Declares Muslim Civil Rights Group a Terrorist.” As for the phrase “Muslim Civil Rights Group,” the Times is actually talking about the Council for American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Hamas-linked Islamic pressure group masquerading as a Muslim civil rights organization whose…
NYT: Accurate Sex Designation on Passports Direct Blow to Transgenders
Tuesday’s New York Times featured a 2,000-word intellectual wasteland by reporter Amy Harmon, “New Passport Rule Sends Blunt and Sweeping Message to Trans Americans.” Harmon’s beat is classic Timesian: “…covering how shifting conceptions of gender affect everyday life in the United States” and her latest pulled out all the sympathetic stops opposing the assumed atrocity of your…
Nets Avoid Dem Video Calling for Military Personnel to Disobey Orders
Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) is already exploring a run for president, and apparently one way to get Democrat primary voters excited is by suggesting military personnel should rebel against President Trump and refuse to accept his orders. On Tuesday, Slotkin posted a video featuring five other congressional Democrats urging the military to resist Trump "to stand up for our laws and our…
Oh Look, an Idiot: Krugman Calls Bidenomics Triumph Nobody Appreciated
Pseudo economics savant Paul Krugman just can’t give up trying to sell the snake oil of Bidenomics as being the unsung hero of the economy that the supposedly dumb plebeians just couldn’t appreciate.
NY Times Unloads Nasty Review of Sen. Fetterman's Memoir: 'Self-Pity'
Jennifer Szalai, the nonfiction book critic for the New York Times, uncorked a nasty review of Sen. John Fetterman’s new memoir (D-PA) Unfettered in Wednesday’s edition (the review was written before Fetterman’s hospitalization after a fall). A petulant take-down which surely has nothing to do with Fetterman's willingness to buck his Democratic Party at times, right?
Benighted NYT Pushes Anti-Israel Mamdani to Victory Vs. 'Islamophobia'
Wednesday’s front-page story by Emma Fitzsimmons documented Zohran Mamdani’s big win in the New York City mayoral race, and both it and the paper’s live online election night coverage hammered home the pathetic liberal trope that criticism of Mamdani’s virulent anti-Israel actions amounted to “Islamophobia” – as if radical Islam is a harmless concept and not a direct terrorist threat, as…
NYT Sees Bias Everywhere But Home: Chatbots Tinged with Political Bias
New York Times “misinformation and disinformation” reporter Steven Lee Myers teamed with reporter Stuart Thompson to go after “biased,” “right-wing” Artificial Intelligence chatbots in “Right-Wing Chatbots Turbocharge America’s Political and Cultural Wars.” Yes, after years of downplaying liberal bias in Google and Wikipedia, the paper has finally found some online search bias to sink…
Column: Don't Call Mamdani a Commie or Jihadi!
Zohran Mamdani surged to an easy victory as the “democratic socialist” mayor of New York City, complete with media enthusiasm that carried echoes of silly Obama love songs. The badly named “mainstream media” earnestly promoted the most extreme candidate.
NY Times Touts 'Popular' Wealth Taxes to Stick It to the Rich
Let's hope the owners of The New York Times send a big chunk of their wealth to Washington annually. You can count on this leftist newspaper to channel the "popularity" of soaking the rich like fervent socialists like to do.
NBC Poll: Support for Capitalism Under 50% for First Time in 7 Years
There’s no getting around it: Our "corporate media" is down on capitalism, and a new poll showing a growing disdain for the foundation of American economic thought shows the media tilt may be working -- or the professorial tilt.
