Captain Obvious: WashPost Admits Biden ‘Yet to Be Asked’ About Reade
April 28th, 2020 12:05 PM
The Washington Post on Tuesday buried the latest on the growing controversy swirling around Joe Biden and a sex abuse claim. The paper demoted the story in the print edition to page A-22. The headline looks like a variation of the old “Republicans pounce” take. It read, “Biden critics point to news about assault claim.” Another way of making this story really boring could be found in the Twitter…

April 28th, 2020 9:05 AM
It's been more than a month since ex-staffer Tara Reade publicly accused presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden of sexual assault, but you probably would have no idea if you relied on ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, NBC or PBS for your news. Since March 25, those networks either completely ignored or barely mentioned the scandal, even after Reade's story was significantly bolstered Friday…

CBS Touts Biden’s VP Short List, Skips Sexual Abuse Allegations
April 27th, 2020 12:32 PM
On Sunday evening, CBS Weekend News marked one year since Joe Biden launched his presidential campaign. Rather use the occasion to hold the presumptive Democratic nominee accountable for sexual abuse allegations leveled against him by former Senate staffer Tara Reade, the broadcast instead focused on touting Biden’s all-female short list of vice presidential picks.

April 26th, 2020 4:10 PM
CNN offered one single story on a Saturday afternoon on Tara Reade’s allegation of sexual assault against Joe Biden – soon after NewsBusters unearthed a video clip of a woman she says is her mother calling into CNN saying a “prominent senator” had wronged her daughter.

CNN FINALLY Ends On-Air Silence on Reade Thanks to Bombshell MRC Video
April 25th, 2020 6:43 PM
Albeit obscenely late and buried on a Saturday afternoon, there was a small victory for those demanding TV news networks cover former Senate staffer Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegations against Joe Biden as CNN broke its on-air silence with a seven-minute-and-30-second segment. The mea culpa came less than 24 hours after a bombshell story from The Intercept alleging Reade’s mother called into…

As Joe Biden marches, or rather slow crawls, to the Democratic presidential nomination, more and more #MeToo activists are finding it quite hard to ignore his sexual assault allegation and history of inappropriate touching. The only question is, why haven’t the mainstream media been as invested in these earnest women, as they were when Brett Kavanaugh was under fire?

CBS Late Night Donates 24 Minutes to Biden; ZERO Questions on Assault
April 22nd, 2020 4:59 PM
Ordinarily, one probably wouldn’t expect much in the way of serious questioning from late night hosts when it comes to politicians, but considering how partisan and political these shows have become, isn’t there a responsibility to ask about the elephant in the room concerning Joe Biden? The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee appeared on the Late Late Show With James Corden on Monday…
Anita Hill-Boosting NPR Tardily Arrives on Biden Sex-Assault Charge
April 20th, 2020 12:12 PM
Almost a month after Tara Reade accused Joe Biden of a 1993 sexual assault, and a week after the nation's top newspapers finally touched the story, National Public Radio issued a report on Sunday morning. This is especially slow for NPR, which was the first to champion the unproven sexual-harassment charges of Anita Hill against Clarence Thomas in 1991. In 2018, NPR jumped to interview Washington…

Remember When Lady Gaga Joined Biden for MeToo PSA?
April 18th, 2020 1:30 PM
Hollywood loves nothing more than teaming with politicians to send a message. Stars spent eight full years coordinating with the Obama administration on everything from volunteerism to the calamitous ObamaCare rollout. That sense of unity disappeared like so many Thanos victims once a Republican entered the White House in 2017.

Column: Biden's Protective Political Calculators
April 15th, 2020 7:21 AM
Almost three weeks after she went on the record with her sexual-assault allegations against Joe Biden, The New York Times and The Washington Post have issued their own investigative reports on Tara Reade, who briefly worked for Senator Biden on Capitol Hill in 1992 and 1993. The networks are still delaying. Top editors say hey, we're not "political actors." Come on.
