Media Cheer: ‘Big Setback’ for Trump's ‘Hardline’ Immigration Policy
The NBC, ABC, and CBS morning shows on Wednesday were grateful that a liberal federal judge sent the White House “reeling” after he handed President Trump “another big setback” to his “hardline immigration policy.” Rather than actually highlight the criminals who have evaded capture due to lax enforcement of immigration laws in left-wing sanctuary cities, the networks instead celebrated the…
Keep Democracy From Dying...in a $25 Washington Post T-Shirt?
The Washington Post in February introduced a self-important slogan timed for the Trump administration: “Democracy Dies in Darkness.” And what better way to stand up for the First Amendment than with an overpriced cotton t-shirt? The Post on Wednesday advertised a $25 t-shirt with the motto
TIME Editor: 'To Demonize the Press' Is to Prepare for 'Repression'
One of the hallmarks of an arrogant press is the notion that they should not be criticized, that somehow criticizing them is to criticize democracy itself. CNN media reporter Brian Stelter highlighted Time Editor Nancy Gibbs for suggesting in her opening remarks at Tuesday night's Time 100 Gala that criticizing the press is anti-democratic and repressive. "To demonize the press," she said, "to…

Nets Decry ‘Lost Revenue’ in Tax Plan; Fear ‘Windfall’ for Trump
On Wednesday, the network morning shows responded to President Trump’s tax reform plan with the standard liberal rhetoric employed whenever Republicans call for tax cuts: How are you going to pay for this massive loss of government revenue?!

Politico Raves: Rather's 'Second Coming' to Battle 'Hitler'-like Trump
After running a great piece yesterday about how polarized journalism has become, Politico took a left turn Wednesday writing a lengthy puff piece on disgraced CBS News anchor Dan Rather’s return to the spotlight or as Politico put it, his “second coming.” While Politico’s senior writer Michael Kruse didn’t shy away from Rather’s own history with “fake news,” the scandal that tore away Rather’s…
NYT Again Harps on ‘Handmaid’s' as ‘Newly Relevant’ in Trump's America
Television critic James Poniewozik was featured on the front of the New York Times Arts section on Tuesday with another look by the paper at the “newly relevant” Hulu version of the feminist dystopian novel “The Handmaid’s Tale.” The Trump-baiting headline: "Making Dystopia Fresh Again -- Drawing on an Atwood novel that feels newly relevant." And another bogus lefty reference to current events is…

Ivanka Trump was embracing her role as adviser to the president on Tuesday when she was representing the United States at a women’s summit in Berlin, Germany. While on stage, she stated that her father has “been a tremendous champion of supporting families.” And with that, the European audience “hissed” and “jeered.” The liberal Big Three networks were more than happy to pounce on the incident…
Bozell & Graham Column: Trump's 100 Days of Media Hostility
The time has come for the media to pull out the artificial measuring stick of 100 days to evaluate President Trump. If they’re kind, he’ll get an I for incomplete. But it’s more likely they’ll use I-words like inability, or incompetence, or incoherence. Whatever they say, it won’t be kind.
But eight years ago? Eight years ago, Time’s Joe Klein graded Obama with an S, for “spectacular.” And…
Cambios en Fusion: la cadena cancela programa semanal de Jorge Ramos
La cancelación del programa semanal (y cambio subsecuente del rol del veterano presentador de noticias) en la cadena Fusion nos dice mucho más sobre el giro que ha dado la cadena que sobre el periodista controversial. Y eso no debe de sorprender a nadie.

Nets Who Tied Trump to Anti-Semitism Ignore Visit to Holocaust Museum
On Tuesday, President Donald Trump paid his respects for Holocaust Remembrance Day with a visit to the National Holocaust Museum just a few blocks away from the White House.

Matthews Defends, Re-Ups Comparing Trumps to Romanovs, Hussein Sons

Politico Warns: 'The Media Bubble Is Worse Than You Think'
Politico's magazine published an article with a surprising title: “The Media Bubble Is Worse Than You Think.” Jack Shafer and Tucker Doherty began with the 2016 election results, which was “not just as an embarrassment for the press but as an indictment. In some profound way, the election made clear, the national media just doesn’t get the nation it purportedly covers.”
The writers know they are…
