Substituting for Joy Reid on MSNBC's AM Joy, Tiffany Cross asked National Diversity Coalition for Trump's Bruce LeVell: "[H]as Donald Trump has ever promised you anything financially in exchange for your blind support of his administration, or helping his campaign?" Cross also "correct[ed]" LeVell for using the term "China virus," calling it "racist." But Cross repeatedly refused to answer…

If it weren’t so serious, this would be hilarious. Way back - way way back --- in 1964 --- Columbia University historian Richard Hofstadter penned a quickly famous article for Harper’s titled The Paranoid Style in American Politics. Hofstadter said, in part, this, bold print supplied here for emphasis:

America's colleges, media, and cultural institutions are being swept by the ideology of “anti-racism.” It openly advocates racial discrimination against white people, and promotes bigoted, lower expectations for black people. “Rationality” and “hard work” are vestiges of racism, declared the “anti-racism” web site of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture.…

On Friday's episode of TNT's "The Arena," Charles Barkley briefly deviated from the social justice narrative to question how long sports fans will stomach the media's obsession with non-stop racism and Black Lives Matter. Co-panelist Draymond Green, who plays forward for the Golden State Warriors, tried to steer Barkley back on course by insisting that people will be on the right side of…

Larry Elder is the latest radio show host to go Hollywood. The syndicated talker serves as a producer and co-writer on the new documentary “Uncle Tom.” The film lets black conservatives tell their stories, from the reasons they crave smaller government to how liberals treat them for thinking independently.

The Wall Street Journal editorial page has come under fire....from the Wall Street Journal news staff.  The Journal’s news staff members sent a letter to the paper’s publisher, Almar Latour, condemning recent articles like a coronavirus piece by Vice President Mike Pence and a denial of systemic police racism that went viral.

One of CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell’s favorite things is to praise journalists (like her) as instrumental in making this country works. One year ago this week, on July 19, 2019, O’Donnell told Late Show host Stephen Colbert she had been reading a Walter Cronkite biography: “One of the things he said is, ‘Journalism is what we need to make democracy work.’ And I so…

When you let your political obsessions dominate you, what you end up with is a rather negative review of a fine documentary that isn't really about politics. Such was the case with Wednesday's Vox review by Alissa Wilkinson of the Netflix documentary Fear City: New York vs. the Mafia. 

Several times this week, MSNBC host Brian Williams has used his primetime show to hype Twitter comments by MSNBC contributor Steve Schmidt in which the bitter former Republican slammed federal agents in Portland as "jackbooted thugs" and "stormtroopers." In 1995, the NRA was trashed for using the phrase "jackbooted thugs" in a fundraising letter. The script has flipped.

David Rutz at the Washington Free Beacon took the time to confirm what everyone conservative could suspect: CNN's Media Unit obsesses over conservative or "far-right" media, and defends the left-wing press as somehow non-ideological. 

MSNBC Live host Ayman Mohyeldin concluded his Friday show by talking to actor and writer Alan Yang of Parks and Recreation fame to discuss the uptick in hate crimes against Asian-Americans and postulated that President Trump's COVID messaging has something to do with it.

CNN continues to eagerly rewrite history and inflate Governor Andrew Cuomo's ego over his horrible handling of the coronavirus pandemic in his state of New York. On Friday afternoon, the Democrat governor was treated to yet another CNN cleanup, this time from anchor John King on CNN Newsroom.

The New York Times devoted an entire print page on Thursday to the ongoing clashes between left-wing radicals and federal officers in Portland, under the rubric “‘Whose Streets? Our Streets.’” That headline is a chant from the Antifa anarchists occupying and setting fires in downtown Portland. It’s also a giveaway to which side the paper’s news staff is on. Mike Baker and Thomas…

Democrats for Life led a coalition against the Democrat Party’s “explicit support” for “abortion extremism” in its national platform in an open letter released on Friday.
