Column: Do We Need a January 6 News Glut?

January 5th, 2022 6:00 AM

On the cusp of an absolute glut of liberal-media anniversary coverage of the January 6 riot, CNN media reporter Brian Stelter was cranky. “We live in a world where Donald Trump's top supporters malign the media for being ‘obsessed’ with January 6.” He argued anyone who thinks this story is overdone is someone "best explained by psychologists or therapists or algorithm developers."

January 4th, 2022 2:50 PM

Joel Pollak at Breitbart reported Sunday that Chief Justice John Roberts of the U.S. Supreme Court blasted attempts to exert “inappropriate political influence” in his year-end report for 2021, as President Biden and the Democrats have pondered proposals to expand or pack the Court with liberals.

On Tuesday, CBS Mornings co-host Tony Dokoupil and Eurasia Group president Ian Bremmer sounded the alarm over the possibility of Republicans winning big in the 2022 midterm elections, something they hysterically labeled one of “the top global risks” in the year ahead.

Isn't That CNN? Cupp Claims Fox Wants America Divided, in 'Disarray'

January 4th, 2022 11:30 AM

S.E. Cupp works for CNN, the same channel that spends virtually every day complaining any push-back to the left's agenda is an "attack on democracy." Yet she had the audacity to claim that one Fox News host laughing at infighting between Democrats means the right “wants to see disarray in America” and “two Americas.” 

Editor’s Pick: CNSNews on False Media Claims of DeSantis ‘Vacation’

January 4th, 2022 10:17 AM

On Monday, CNSNews Blog Editor Craig Bannister reported on far-left Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her liberal media buddies, like MSNBC anchor Joy Reid, “accusing Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis of being on ‘vacation,’ and nowhere to be found during a pandemic.” However, as the article noted, they got their facts wildly wrong: “DeSantis was actually on the job – except…

Tur Fears ‘Next Election Won’t Be Fair,’ Hopes for 2024 ‘Contingency'

January 3rd, 2022 4:55 PM

On her Monday afternoon show, MSNBC anchor Katy Tur tried to preemptively claim that elections results in 2022 and 2024 – contests in which Republicans are expected to do well –  would be illegitimate. She even wondered in there was a “contingency plan” in place for 2024 in case “there is another violent insurrection with millions of people.”

Morning Joe Hails Biden's 'Christmas Miracle: WH That Saved Christmas'

January 3rd, 2022 1:44 PM

The opening segment of the December 23 Morning Joe was one — interminable — tongue bath for Joe Biden. On everything from the omicron variant to the supply chain, to inflation, the panel lavished praise on Ol' Saint Joe. The praise reached its absurd apotheosis with Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski twice -- joking-not-joking -- speaking of a "Christmas miracle." Scarborough ended…

CNN’s 2022 Resolution: Make Everything an Attack on Democracy

January 3rd, 2022 11:31 AM

On Sunday, CNN’s so-called “Reliable Sources” rang in 2022 with some New Year resolutions for the media (I guess that makes them News Year resolutions) at the end of the show. But there was only one resolution they wanted to stick to and it was to gaslight their audiences by making everything into a threat to democracy.

January 3rd, 2022 10:58 AM

On Sunday, The Blaze’s Weekend Editor Chris Enloe reported that “The Dallas Morning News was sharply criticized after amplifying a tabloid-like story about the 13-year-old daughter of Sen.

Column: ABC Saves Biden's Bacon In Year-End Roundup

December 31st, 2021 5:55 AM

One of the most disturbing concepts in politics is the media elite providing the “first draft of history.” You can test-drive this with a look at ABC’s two-hour year-end special on December 27. It was mostly about celebrities and athletes and some natural disasters. But when President Biden came up, ABC was energetically playing defense.

December 30th, 2021 9:23 AM

Lumping Donald Trump with Osama Bin Laden? That's going too easy on the former president! On New Day, CNN's "national security analyst" and former Obama aide Juliette Kayyem said that when a year ago in an Atlantic article she depicted Trump as being "the leader of a terror movement," she was, as she recently tweeted, actually being "too kind" to him!

December 29th, 2021 9:28 PM

As was reported here on Wednesday afternoon, ABC, NBC, and CBS had nothing but gushing praise for former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. This was also true on Wednesday evening as the liberal networks drooled all over Reid and his legacy as the longtime leader of the Democratic Party in the U.S. Senate.

Joy's Year of Hate: Here's Reid's 20 WORST Moments From 2021

December 28th, 2021 6:11 PM

With a full year under her belt hosting MSNBC’s The ReidOut, far-left pundit and generally awful human being Joy Reid made her presence felt with a night-after-night hatefest against conservatives, Republicans, and anyone who stands in her way, painting them as enemies of the people. All in all, Reid ran a show with rhetoric bordering on incitement.
