NEW NewsBusters Podcast: Our Rigged Media with Mollie Hemingway
So The New York Times has suddenly decided to proclaim (quietly) that the emails on Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop are real. This is a perfect opportunity for NewsBusters to talk to Mollie Hemingway -- Editor-in-Chief of The Federalist and Fox News contributor -- about how the major media and Big Tech acted as a goon squad censoring any journalism about this laptop in October 2020,…
Stahl to Trump In 2020: Hunter Biden Laptop Emails 'Can't be Verified'
In light of the very belated admission by the New York Times that the Hunter Biden laptop and the emails on it are authentic, it is a good time to watch how CBS's Lesley Stahl vociferously denied it could be verified during an October 2020 60 Minutes interview with President Donald Trump.
The View Avoids Jackson’s Leniency with Pedos, Targets Conservatives
Ahead of Monday’s start to the Supreme Court nomination hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, Friday’s COVID-stricken edition of ABC’s The View featured three co-hosts avoiding the apparent evidence of Jackson going easy on sex offenders and child porn peddlers. Instead, they came to her defense by arguing that she’ll “very literally” “outshine each and every one” of the…
‘The Gray Lady Winked’ Exposes NY Times Pro-Woke, Anti-Soldier Bias
The New York Times entered the 21st century carrying the same old bad habits, as Ashley Rindsberg documents in The Gray Lady Winked. In the first part of our review we summarized his findings on the paper’s shameful coverage of the rise of Nazism and Communism and its suppression of news of the ongoing Holocaust. In the second part: More hostility toward Jews,…
School Days, School Days in the Sunshine State
Washington — As I wrote many years ago, when an entity falls under the control of liberalism, it eventually loses all sense of what its purpose was to begin with. The entity can be as small as a schoolroom or as vast as a great city or even a nation. Hand over a schoolroom or a vast city to the leadership of a cabal of liberals, and you will eventually see the schoolroom devoted to teaching…
They Can’t Move on: Reporters Slam Psaki From the Left on COVID
Thursday’s Psaki Show reminded viewers of a sad but necessary reminder that too many in the liberal media will never relent on fear porn surrounding the coronavirus and their penchant for restrictions on everyday life. Such was the case with numerous reporters pushing the press secretary from the left to reinstitute them due to a new omicron variant and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff’s positive…
Video: The Media Will Never Blame Biden for Gas Prices
Bad news for anyone still holding out hope that the media will eventually start blaming Biden for record-breaking gas prices and inflation: it’s not going to happen. For months the media’s talking points on skyrocketing energy costs have been in lockstep with the Biden administration’s own blame-shifting, and that trend doesn’t show any signs of letting up.
Psaki Ducks Questions on Hunter’s Laptop, Including Her Past Comments
After scores of COVID and Ukraine questions at Thursday’s White House press briefing, Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann and Daily Mail’s Rob Crilly finally broke through with one question each about Hunter Biden in light of a New York Times report that all but admitted the New York Post was right in 2020 about his infamous laptop. Unfortunately, Press Secretary Jen Psaki wanted nothing to…
Editor’s Pick: Federalist on High Grades for Media That Ignored Hunter
On Friday, The Federalist’s Western Correspondent Tristan Justice reported on leftist media outlets that refused to cover the Hunter Biden scandal in 2020 still somehow passing with flying colors when graded on their credibility by left-wing news rating group NewsGuard: “News groups dedicated to discrediting misinformation have a history of amplifying misinformation. On Wednesday, The New York…
What Happened to Hunter's Laptop Being 'Russian Disinformation?'
Remember when the entire leftwing media establishment pushed a letter by former “intelligence officials” alleging, without evidence, that Hunter Biden’s laptop was somehow Russian disinformation? Now that even The New York Times admits that the laptop story is real, what say the journalists who so happily pushed that reckless lie to shield then-candidate Biden from bad press?
MSNBC Demands Transgender Swimmer Lia Thomas Be Celebrated
MSNBC’s Hallie Jackson took a break from Ukraine coverage towards the end of her Thursday show to hype the “potentially history-making night” to come as transgender swimming Lia Thomas prepared to compete in the NCAA swimming championships -- which Thomas did win later in the day. Together with activist Chris Mosier, the duo demanded Thomas be celebrated for making it to the championships.
Column: Years Late and Millions Short on Hunter Biden
The New York Times quietly admitted -- in a St. Patrick's Day story buried on page A-20, halfway through paragraph 23 -- that the emails on Hunter Biden's infamous laptop are real. All of the Big Tech censorship and Big Media brouhaha about the laptop story being "Russian disinformation" now looks even worse.
Nets Ignore Biden SCOTUS Nominee's Record of Being Soft on Child Porn
On Wednesday, Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) posted a lengthy Twitter thread with damming evidence of Biden Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson’s record of being soft on child porn offenders. All three evening news broadcasts (ABC World News Tonight, CBS Evening News & NBC Nightly News) ignored Hawley’s allegations. This comes in stark contrast to the way the networks treated…
