Can’t New Years Eve be free from liberal swooning? No. No, it can’t. On NBC’s A Toast to 2018!, celebrities AND network journalists fawned over far-left Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. As the last hours of 2018 ticked away, Dateline NBC reporter Andrea Canning gushed over the documentary and feature film on Ginsburg: “I mean, she's 85 years old and everyone's talking about her!”
Dateline NBC’s Dennis Murphy raved, “Woman of the year. Anyone opposed to that?” Well, some conservatives might not be thrilled. Can anyone imagine journalists saying this about a film on the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia?
This is Us actress Chrissy Metz rhapsodized, “She is the bomb!”
A transcript of the New Years Eve exchange is below:
