Misinforming NYT Reporter Finds 'Misinformation' in GOP Campaign Email
New York Times political reporter Maggie Astor had a pretty galling story on the front of Tuesday’s Business section, where she criticized apparently dangerous falsehoods lurking in Republican campaign emails: “Now in Your Inbox: Political Misinformation.” This from the same reporter who called Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin a “conservative" and that calling Vice…

Column: Democrats Get Softballs for the Holidays

Contrast: Doocy Asks Psaki Real Questions While Lefties Lob Softballs
Hours before Press Secretary Jen Psaki’s lame attempt at humor, Tuesday’s White House press briefing similarly featured moments of stupidity as liberal journalists hit Psaki from the left on gun control, January 6, cutting back holiday parties due to Covid, and, worst of all, the dark red voting tendencies of Kentuckians who lost their homes in violent tornadoes. However, it wasn’t all lost as…
Nets Unbothered By Americans STILL in Afghanistan, Inaccurate Numbers
On Tuesday, the State Department released new figures on how many Americans were still trapped in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan and how many more Americans and lawful citizens were rescued post-U.S. withdrawal than originally disclosed to the American people.

Medals for Jumping to Conclusions About Jussie Smollett
If Love means never having to say you’re sorry (it doesn’t), then being a member of the media means never having to admit you were wrong (it does). I wouldn’t write about the Jussie Smollett case and his conviction for lying about a hoax he perpetrated if it didn’t reflect something seriously wrong in the culture. Smollett was convicted in Chicago last week of faking an attack by a supposed…

Here they go again. New York Times Houston bureau chief J. David Goodman made Monday’s paper with this apparently newsworthy criticism of the Republican Party in Texas, “For Texas Governor, Hard Right Turn Followed a Careful Rise.” It’s the Times’ latest entry in a series of repetitive, fearmongering stories the paper has been constantly running for a decade, warning its…

Gaffe Alert: Nets Skip Baffled Kamala Confused By Electric Car
Given Kamala Harris’s extremely low approval ratings (28 percent), the networks seem to think making the Vice President invisible is the best kind of damage control.

Editor’s Pick: Right Scoop on CNN’s Lemon Demanding Fox Ban

NYT Uses Chris Wallace to Take Page-One Swipe at ‘Conspiratorial' Fox
New York Times media reporter Michael Grynbaum made the front page Monday upon the resignation of Fox News anchor Chris Wallace, using the surprise announcement as a springboard to attack the cable channel.
