AP's "Fact Check" team obsessively challenges the statements of President Trump, almost to the exclusion of other people in national politics. But are they checking facts, or opinions?

Their "fact check" was actually…

Could the love affair that the mainstream media has been having for New York governor Andrew Cuomo finally be diminishing? One sign of that could be a new skepticism creeping into the stories about how Cuomo has handled the coronavirus crises with his disastrous decision to send COVID-19 patients into nursing homes. An example of how the bloom might be off the rose for Cuomo could be seen in…

Harvard went looking for a liberal corporate Bigfoot to give their 2020 virtual commencement address, and they landed Marty Baron, executive editor of The Washington Post. The man whose paper oozes arrogance at the top of every newspaper with the motto “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” Baron came to amend the slogan.

During two special reports, ABC and NBC collectively decried the Trump administration’s actions on China pertaining to the Wuhan…

Due to taping Friday’s show earlier in the week, the hosts of The View today didn’t get to talk about the violence in Minneapolis and all over the country, on today’s show.

A CNN International story posted on the outlet’s website May 24 proved that the channel won’t let a deadly pandemic get in the way of pushing a left-wing feminist agenda, even if it must distort reality to do so: “Coronavirus is killing more men. But the lockdown is disastrous for women and their rights.” Never mind reports showing men were 50% more likely to die of Covid-19, since “experts say…

Tim Graham
May 29th, 2020 5:58 AM
On May 27, the American death toll from coronavirus sunk into the six figures: 100,000 lives lost. That’s a very sad number, made sadder when we ponder that the virus prevents loved ones from saying goodbye in person, and makes any funeral an extremely small event.
