If politics can be said to be a team sport, then MSNBC host and Thursday Morning Joe panelist Al Sharpton is the coach who puts the ball on the tee, and Rep. Jamie Raskin is the batter who takes the easy swing. Sharpton asked if a federal judge ruling President Trump illegally withheld funding from Harvard proves that his anti-DEI policies are political, and Raskin dutifully replied…

Anyone depending on legacy network news for coverage of China’s military parade, honoring the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II, might have thought they were watching Chinese state media. Among these, CBS was the most effusive in their ChiCom suck-uppery.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert had an unconvincing rebuttal on Wednesday to President Trump’s recent Truth Social posts that portrayed Chicago as a crime-ridden and dangerous city. Colbert’s three-part response involved telling Trump “[bleep] you,” repeating some false statistics, and saying Chicago can’t be that bad because The Late Show traveled there in the summer of 2024 and came back…

Since last summer, when CNN NewsNight shifted to an panel discussion-only format, host Abby Phillip has been praised for consistently inviting prominent conservatives onto the otherwise lopsidedly left-wing network. But with how rarely Phillip actually permits said conservative guests to finish a point without interrupting them, NewsNight is more akin to a televised struggle…

So much of what is reported on legacy network news these days isn’t so much news as it is anti-news- propaganda meant to disinform and/or make viewers afraid of something. Such is the case with CBS’s report on changes to the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program (SNAP) that aired on tonight’s Evening News Plus. 

Appearing on Wednesday’s CBS Mornings and CBS Mornings Plus, infectious disease expert and Covid-19 pandemic TV mainstay Dr. Michael Osterholm stopped by to hawk his new book The Big One and, despite the best efforts of the CBS co-hosts to have Osterholm answer for the public health community’s failures during Covid that caused their credibility to crater, Osterholm…

On Tuesday's Morning Joe, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough ranted against a decision by U.S. attorney Jeanine PIrro not to prosecute D.C. residents for carrying a rifle or shotgun outside the home without a permit, calling it "bonkers" and "insanity."

“Mental health is declining,” says psychologist Jonathan Haidt. This week, his book, “The Anxious Generation,” is number one on The New York Times bestseller list. His book has been a bestseller for more than a year. Haidt argues that smartphones and social media have “rewired childhood” and made kids more anxious and depressed. My son agrees. He brings Haidt’s argument to schools.…

CNN was seemingly engaged in some stochastic terrorism during Wednesday’s Inside Politics as host Dana Bash gave a platform to and promoted incendiary Democratic Party conspiracy theories claiming President Trump was going to steal the 2026 midterm elections. At no point did she try to poke holes in the idea, instead she praised Democrats for “sounding the alarm” and said Trump’s past…

Former CNN senior media reporter and liberal media janitor Oliver Darcy expressed disgust in his Tuesday night newsletter Status that “one of Warner Bros. Discovery’s most powerful stakeholders” and legendary media boss John Malone has been blasting CNN this week in interviews with CNBC and The New York Times about a new memoir, insisting CNN’s “a left-leaning, anti-Trump news service…

Former MSNBC host and professional crazy person Joy Reid joined former colleague Katie Phang on her YouTube show that partners with the MeidasTouch Network on Tuesday to argue that the news media is not being tough enough when it comes to questions around President Trump’s health. In one specific instance, Reid went deep down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole and claimed Trump was only “…

The New York Times has an inglorious tradition of glorifying communists, and the latest installment in this regrettable ritual came on Wednesday from Seoul bureau chief Choe Sang-Hun. Choe penned an uncritical profile of former North Korean soldier-turned South Korean resident Ahn Hak-sop, who has the dual life goal of removing American troops from the country and returning…

Since their parent company Disney was beholden to the Chinese Communist Party, even giving a “special thanks” to those carrying out a genocide against Uighurs in the credits of Mulan, ABC foreign correspondent Britt Clennett beclowned herself and the network during Wednesday’s Good Morning America. With prime seating in Tiananmen Square, Clennett had a huge smile on her face…

The New York Magazine''sIntelligencer section certainly knows its liberal readers as one that lately, along with many others of the their fellow liberals, is suddenly very very interested in the health of President Donald Trump. Not out of any sympathetic concern for his health but out of a ghoulish fascination that could remove him from performing his presidential duties which is…
