Column: Soft-Soaping the 'Uncommitted' Voters Who Back Hamas

March 1st, 2024 6:35 AM

You can tell a media outlet is on the left by the way it's resistant to describing leftist allies – even their radicals in their base – with an ideological label.

ABC, CBS ‘Uncommitted’ to Reporting on Michigan Dem Primary Chaos

November 9th, 2023 11:26 AM

Recently censured Rep. Rashida Tlaib joined MSNBC All In host Chris Hayes on Friday to disscuss said censuring, Israel, and to try to claim “from the river to the sea” is really just used by peace-loving people who want Israelis and Palestinians to coexist.

NYT Oozes Pity for Lefty House Members Stuck in ‘Far-Right’ Hellhole

November 7th, 2023 4:50 PM

The New York Times ran a story by Robert Jimison on Friday that was immensely sympathetic to the fiery progressives in Congress unable to make political progress against a “far right” that “wrought havoc”: “Left-Wing Freshmen in a Right-Led House.” The paper actually put an unflattering label on a Democrat (albeit with an “ultraconservative” to balance it out).

STUDY: ABC, CBS, NBC Are Shielding Pro-Hamas Democrats from the Public

October 24th, 2023 11:46 AM

Since the October 7 Hamas massacre of Israeli civilians, House Democratic members of the “Squad” have drawn harsh criticism from even members of their own party for their rabidly anti-Israel posturing.
