Cub NY Times Reporter Mourns 'Misinformation' Without Major Papers
Eli Tan, a San Francisco-based tech reporter for the New York Times, devoted 2,500 words in the paper’s Sunday edition decrying the spread of right-wing conspiracy theories, now that no one subscribes to the Times or local newspapers anymore: “How Misinformation and Partisan ‘New Media’ Changed a California Town.” The story was heavily based on a "militia" incidence that…

NY Times: 'Chilling Parallels' Between Third Reich, Trump's 2nd Term
David Segal, a feature writer for the New York Times, interviewed German-born novelist Daniel Kehlmann, who “sees chilling parallels between what happened [under Hitler] and what has unfolded since Trump’s second inauguration.” The “Republican president = Hitler” smear has been a tired and offensive lazy liberal trope unworthy of appearing in a once-prestigious newspaper.

The New York Times War On Democracy
Ya can’t make it up. Unless, of course, you’re the New York Times Editorial Board.

NY Times Celebrates Radical Anti-USA Streamer as 'Very Handsome Man'
The New York Times ran a frankly weird article celebrating leftist internet streamer Hasan Piker, “A Progressive Mind in a Body Made for the ‘Manosphere.’” If that wasn’t enough to quality for the Hasan Piker fanclub, the subhead continued: “Hasan Piker pumps iron, likes weapons and wears pearls. His brand of masculinity has won him many fans online -- and has been a useful vehicle…

FLASHBACK: Fawning 100-Day Coverage of New (Democratic) Presidents
Wednesday marks 100 days since President Trump took office for the second time, and the news media will doubtless be ready with report cards judging his new administration. Yet looking back at news coverage of recent liberal Presidents at their 100-day mark, it’s been a veritable lovefest.

NY Times Retcons Star Wars Spinoff Into Anti-Trump Resistance Tale
Fighting Trumpian fascism in the Star Wars universe! That was the angle taken by James Poniewozik, chief TV critic for the New York Times, to mark the second and final season of the Star Wars streaming spinoff Andor, on the front page of Thursday’s Arts section. The online headline: “‘Andor’ Shows How a Resistance Is Built, One Brick at a Time -- In the best of the Disney+ “…

NYT A1: Pope Pushed Against ‘Xenophobia,’ Aided ‘Demonized Migrants'
Jason Horowitz, the New York Times’ Rome bureau chief and passionate fan of the late Pope Francis (he loved to cast opponents of the late pontiff’s political proclamations into the outer darkness as “archconservatives” or “ultraconservatives”) made Wednesday’s front page off-lead slot with another story to accompany his official obituary for Pope Francis: “As Ears Closed, Pope…

Column: The Poseurs Who Think They're Heroes Opposing Today's Hitler
Is there any political schtick more tedious now than comparing President Trump to Hitler? The New York Times published an op-ed by Larry David, who loves making a friendly impression of socialist Bernie Sanders on Saturday Night Live. The title was “My Dinner with Adolf,” making an incredibly unfunny mockery of Bill Maher meeting with Trump.

Nasty NYT Psychoanalyzes Its Political Enemies: 'Trump Billionaires'
The New York Times has a nasty, Soviet-style habit of putting political personalities they don’t approve of on the psychiatrist couch. Elisabeth Bumiller, writer at large for the New York Times and a veteran at the paper, issued a self-righteous, unprofessional screed in Monday’s “Washington Memo” slot, “In the Words of the Trump Billionaires Who Run the Economy," in which…

Sarah Palin Comes Up Short in Retrial of NY Times Defamation Suit
On Tuesday, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin (R) lost the retrial of her defamation suit against The New York Times after she alleged the editorial board defamed her by linking her to the assassination attempt on Arizona Democratic Congresswoman Gabby Giffords. The retrial came after improper conduct by the Manhattan federal judge overseeing the case affected the jury’s…

NY Times Hails Pope's 'Inclusion' vs. 'Doctrinaire' Conservatism
After Pope Francis died Monday morning, the New York Times started rolling out tributes to the pontiff at nytimes.com, plus a standard 7,000-word obituary by Jason Horowitz and Jim Yardley, current and former Rome bureau chiefs for the Times. Horowitz adored Francis as pontiff, and predictably hailed the left’s favorite pope as a force for “inclusion” against “doctrinaire”…

NY Times on UK Transgender Ruling: 'Legal Assault on Trans Rights'
In Friday’s New York Times, White House correspondent Michael Shear was filing from London, as if offering a warning to left-wing trans activists in the United States: The bigots are coming for you too! “U.K. Court Ruling on Trans Women Is Part of Wider Debate on Sex and Gender.” Shear characterized the measured decision by the U.K. Supreme Court with fiery, loaded language: "The…

Trump Derangement: See Only Evil, Hear Only Evil, Speak Only Evil
Disdain for President Donald Trump translates into a refusal to accept reality if doing it gives Trump a political victory. Examples include, but are certainly not limited to, the continuing assertion that Trump, about Charlottesville, said some variation of, “There were good and bad white nationalists and neo-Nazis on both sides”; the denial of the Hunter Biden laptop; that Trump “mocked” a…
