In his column promoting a guest essay on the paper's op-ed page, Daniel Wakin, a New York Times editor, analogizes Israel to hegemons like the Roman Empire, the Soviet Union, and the USA. In the essay Wakin was promoting, the authors make no such analogy.

Journalists who insist the conservatives don’t believe in facts are greeting the very fictional final season of The Handmaid’s Tale on Hulu with the ridiculous rerun spin of “wow, this repressive religious dictatorship is so exactly like Trump’s America.” Former CNN media reporter Oliver Darcy -- Mr. "Facts First" -- interviewed the show-runners and repeated the garbage that it has "…

Journalists don't tell the Democrats to calm down. Typically, they encourage Democrats to scream about Trump as an autocrat. On Sunday's Meet the Press, Boston Globe senior opinion writer Kimberly Atkins Stohr was one of those leftist agitators, using the tariff turbulence as another opportunity to cry Tyranny.

Rare is the instance where you see blue-on-blue crime on the Legacy Media’s Sunday shows, but Politico’s Jonathan Martin gives us that rare outlier, in reaction to Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s face-shielding hijinks at The White House.

It seems impossible for former New York Times columnist Paul Krugman to stay out of the limelight and make himself look even more ridiculous.

CNN’s Anderson Cooper hosted a town hall with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders on Wednesday, and, even by CNN’s standards, it was quite the softball session. Not only did both men take advantage of fact-checker Daniel Dale apparently having better things to do with his time by accusing President Trump of “whitewashing American history,” but Cooper even invited the president of American University’s…

On Friday's episode of CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish surprisingly praises Marco Rubio's take on revoking student visas as "common sense." But Cornish once again assembles an unbalanced panel, bereft of any Trump-supporting Republican.

Comedy Central’s The Daily Show held a satirical debate on its Friday show between host Desi Lydic and pretend White House correspondent Troy Iwata.
