Name-Calling

Writing and making public one’s opinions guarantees people will respond. Writers, performers and every human likely desire his or her thoughts, and even their life, to matter to others. The alternative is to become hermits. Like other opinion writers I get my share of positive and negative letters, but during the Trump administration the level of invective for those questioning anything the…

Podcast Host Unverified After Interviewing Controversial GOP Candidate

Twitter’s terms of service say the platform doesn’t need a reason to terminate users or meddle with user content, and it appears its warning was no bluff. Josh LeKach’s show Wrong Opinion engages with anti-establishment and radically pro-free speech figures.

'View' Brings on Clyburn to Defend Biden After He Makes Racist Comment

The View protected Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden for over a month after his former staffer accused him of sexual assault. But after Biden made a racist comment about black voters in an interview last week, the hosts decided to address it and brush it under the rug as quickly as possible, by bringing on a black Democrat ally of Biden’s to do damage control for him.

NBC Gently Describes Biden as ‘Rusty’ for ‘You Ain’t Black’ Gaffe

After the long Memorial Day Weekend, ABC and CBS hoped you had forgotten about Joe Biden’s “you ain’t black” gaffe. The two networks on Tuesday avoided a recap of the presumptive Democratic nominee’s insistence that you can’t be African American and vote for Donald Trump. On the Today show, however, Andrea Mitchell gently brought the topic up, describing Biden as “rusty.”

ABC Scores Interview With Omar, Yawns at Her History of Anti-Semitism

Good Morning America on Tuesday scored an exclusive interview with Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, allowing the Democrat to hype her new book. Not mentioned at all in the interview? Her history of anti-Semitic remarks as well as other controversies. Shockingly, however, co-host Amy Robach pressed Omar (twice) on the woman accusing Joe Biden of sexual assault.

Mitchell Contrasts Trump's 'Awful' Record on Race Issues With Biden's

Appearing as a panelist on Sunday’s edition of Meet the Press, MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell acted more as a Democratic strategist than a journalist. She did her best to do damage control for beleaguered presidential candidate Joe Biden, who stepped in it by telling radio host Charlamagne tha God that “you ain’t black” if you consider voting for President Trump. Mitchell quickly changed the subject by…
