15 Times Big Tech Censored Local Government Meetings, Officials
August 11th, 2021 9:50 AM
Four school board meetings, collectively from Connecticut, Illinois and Washington, were removed from YouTube within an eight-day period last month for violating the platform’s “COVID-19 medical misinformation policy.” Big Tech’s censorship of local government meetings and public officials, whether restored following criticism or not, is a slippery slope that keeps getting steeper.

March 31st, 2021 2:56 PM
Congress has remained locked in a stalemate over how to tackle Big Tech tyranny. Meanwhile, state governments have stepped up and decided to take matters into their own hands where the federal government has failed.

CNN’s Climate Change Hysteria: Trump ‘Assaults Science!’
September 15th, 2020 12:53 PM
Some days, CNN’s Chicken Little routine about President Trump is so hysterical it seems like parody. Tuesday, the network was not about to give the president any credit for visiting California and speaking to local leaders about the wildfires. Instead, they accused Trump of "assaulting science" by not blaming climate change.

April 10th, 2020 1:01 PM
Law & Crime had a peculiar story late Thursday afternoon in the never-ending efforts to destroy Fox News.

Fox News Highlights Criticism of Tacoma, Washington Gun Tax
November 16th, 2019 11:41 AM
On Thursday morning, FNC's Fox and Friends gave attention to liberal efforts to restrict gun sales in Tacoma, Washington, by charging people a tax for gun sales, as if making lawful gun purchases more expensive would somehow harm criminals. At about 7:45 a.m. Eastern, the show allowed two pro-gun activists from the Tacoma Rifle and Revolver Club to appear as guests and explain why they oppose…
NY Times Puzzled Over Asian Opposition to Quotas in Washington State
November 6th, 2019 8:19 AM
The New York Times sounded perturbed that the blue state of Washington was resisting a return to the old divisive days of “affirmative action.” An editor insisted on calling it “Unlikely resistance to a ballot measure in Washington State” in a text box, although it makes sense that Asian-Americans would resist affirmative action, having been successful as a group without…

January 21st, 2018 10:32 PM
Dedicated tax-and-spend liberals often get help from the press in describing their plans to raid constituents' pocketbooks in vague terms, while nobly describing the alleged benefits of their plans to use the money. Washington's Democratic Governor Jay Inslee has the Associated Press running that kind of interference for his carbon tax.
Not National News: Costco Pushes Back at Seattle's Sugary Drink Tax
January 13th, 2018 9:23 PM
The City of Seattle probably didn't expect pushback from Costco, seen by many on the left as retail's "anti-Walmart," after its "sugary drink" tax of 1.75 cents per ounce went into effect January 1. But that is exactly what has happened. In moves the national press, which largely supports such taxes, has thus far ignored, Costco is itemizing the built-in cost of…
Press Cover-up Returns to Haunt: Seattle Mayor Ends Reelection Bid
May 10th, 2017 9:52 PM
Seattle Mayor Ed Murray announced on Tuesday that he will not run for reelection as the city's mayor because of mounting allegations that he sexually abused underage boys in the 1980s. Press coverage has either ignored Murray's Democratic Party affiliation or buried it in related stories' late paragraphs.
This outcome also exposes a double standard in the Evergreen State press,…

Seattle Station Describes Washington's Elections As 'An Honor System'
September 29th, 2016 11:32 PM
Wednesday evening, Seattle TV station KING 5 erroneously broke what it thought was troubling news about Arcan Cetin, who has been arrested and charged with the murder of five people at the Cascade Mall in Burlington, Washington last Friday. The station reported that Cetin is not a U.S. citizen, but is instead "considered a permanent resident or green card holder," and…
NYT: Opponents of Amnesty for 'Undocumented' Are Like Racist Granddad
March 30th, 2015 12:07 PM
Adam Davidson of National Public Radio lumped people who oppose illegal immigration with racists and homophobes (like his grandfather) in the New York Times magazine:
When I was growing up in the 1980s, I watched my grandfather -- my dad’s stepdad -- struggle with his own prejudice. He was a blue-collar World War II veteran who loved his family above all things and was constantly afraid…
As Homelessness Rises in Seattle and Elsewhere, National Press Snoozes
January 22nd, 2015 11:53 PM
A week ago, Seattle Mayor Ed Murray, a Democrat, called homelessness in his city and the rest of King County a "full-blown crisis."
Based on the numbers presented in coverage of the area's situation, we can certainly add the Emerald City to the list of areas where homelessness has been on the rise. Odds are that many readers here didn't know that, because the national press…
