New York Times

The Republican National Convention launched last night, and the New York Times launched its contemptuous coverage with Trump-hostile White House correspondent Peter Baker setting the table on Monday’s front page: “As Woes Grow, President Aims To Shift Story.” Baker told a whopper about the now famous McCloskey couple of St. Louis, supposedly “brandishing guns at peaceful Black Lives Matter…

The New York Times hates capitalism. It's right there on the front of Sunday's Book Review. Behold journalistic balance today: One radical lefty author praising another radical lefty author. Far, far-left writer Anand Giridharadas reviewed Kurt Andersen’s latest book, Evil Geniuses – The Unmasking of America: A Recent History.

The New York Times got mawkish over Democratic nominee Joe Biden’s acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention Thursday night. The front page of Friday’s New York Times found reporter Matt Flegenheimer’s prose in full overbearing flower paying homage to his challenging personal biography: “Despair, Detours and the Fulfillment of a Dream.” Former White House correspondent Frank…

The third night of the virtual Democratic National Convention was highlighted by a scathing speech by former president Barack Obama attacking his successor Donald Trump. White House correspondent Peter Baker’s lead story used Obama’s speech to both praise the former president and denigrate the current one, under the headline “Obama Sees Chance to Save a Legacy Under Siege." Baker commiserated…

Donald Trump registered quite the achievement: He managed to make the avowedly feminist New York Times criticize renowned suffragist Susan B. Anthony in “With Eye on Election, Trump Plans to Pardon Women’s Suffrage Icon,” after the president announced he would mark the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment, giving women the right to vote, by pardoning Anthony, who was arrested and fined for…

The Democratic National Convention launched in virtual mode, and the New York Times was predictably gushing -- but still reserved plenty of space for invective again President Trump. White House correspondent Peter Baker in particular has become openly contemptuous of the president. He was granted a half-page of text for his Tuesday “news analysis,” “Racist Attacks, Conspiracy Theories and War…

An in-depth New York Times examination of the controversy over males competing in women's sports stumbles out of the starting blocks and limps home to the finish line. The story by Gillian R. Brassil and Jeré Longman on Tuesday is mostly supportive of transgenders competing with opposite-gender sports and cites some dubious sources.

The New York Times eagerly scours the country for racism and reliably finds it, which makes Saturday’s story defending Yale University (named after a slave-trader) even more fascinating. Reporters Anemona Hartocollis and Giulia McDonnell Nieto Del Rio fought the possibility of racial discrimination against Asian-Americans in Yale’s admission process, instead suggesting racism the part of the…

Univision senior anchor Jorge Ramos has a habit of saying one thing to American media and another overseas. And it appears that The New York Times got wind of his overseas remarks after publication of his latest op-ed. The opinion piece, originally published on August 7th, was entitled “Can a Latina Girl Dream of Being President of the United States?” Shortly after publication, the op-ed’s…

New York Times tech reporter Kevin Roose smeared the Tea Party by comparing it to the nutty QAnon conspiracists on Friday’s front page: “Far Right to Election Night: QAnon Gaining at Ballot Box.” The jump-page text box underlined the offensive comparison: “Two movements with similar roots on conservative fringes.” According to the conservative-hostile Roose, there are "more parallels than you’…

The New York Times will strenuously defend Joe Biden’s VP pick Kamala Harris from those racists and sexists who would dare criticize her, as shown in Thursday’s “White House Memo” by Katie Rogers: “Kamala Harris Crystallizes Trump’s View of Women: They’re ‘Nasty’ or Housewives -- As Ms. Harris joined the Democratic ticket, the president wasted no time calling her “nasty” and praising the ‘…

Liberal billionaire George Soros has a knack for saying creepy globalist things. His latest comments on the opportunities he sees with the coronavirus pandemic are no exception. Soros told Italian newspaper La Repubblica in an interview that he described the virus as “a revolutionary moment when the range of possibilities is much greater than in normal times,” according to The Washington Times…

The New York Times was offended on Sen. Kamala Harris’s behalf in its hysterical Wednesday morning coverage, after Republicans failed to properly bow to Joe Biden’s pick for vice-presidential running mate, a woman the paper clearly adores: “2020 Election Live Updates: After Harris Pick, Sexist and Racist Attacks From Trump and Fox News Hosts." Meanwhile, the paper’s gushing over Harris made a…

The New York Times used precious front-page space on Monday to gripe about…a rival news outlet, the paper’s latest attack on its successful right-leaning media rival Fox News. It emerged from media reporter Michael Grynbaum, “Boycott or Not, Fox News Bolts Past Networks.”
