PBS’s Frontline Portrays Mitch McConnell as Sinister SCOTUS Svengali
The latest episode of Frontline, an investigative series with a historical left-wing slant that airs on taxpayer-funded PBS, appeared on Halloween night. That fit the scary tone of “McConnell, the GOP & the Court,” which portrayed Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) as a sinister Svengali of the Supreme Court. Jealousy, perhaps? The biography opened with darkened still…

Tuesday’s White House press briefing brought about more of the same with a slew of journalists standing up for Hamas and their civilian supporters in Gaza following an Israeli airstrike in Jabalia on a refugee camp allegedly posing as a giant human shield for Hamas operations.

Dickerson Hypes CBS's Standards on Hamas War Despite Errors
CBS, like most of the rest of the media, initially uncritically repeated Hamas claims that Israel bombed a Gaza hospital that turned out to be false.

Column: Kinzinger Rewarded for Denouncing the GOP 'Terrorist Caucus'
Former congressman Adam Kinzinger has a new book out for Halloween titled Renegade. This implies he’s a daring rebel against Republicans, instead of simply switching parties.
