Double Standards

Once again, CNN’s Scott Jennings says the one thing exposing leftist hypocrisy that causes a segment to go up in smoke. This time, he did it on CNN’s State of the Union.

January 6. Simply to say the two words will elicit, depending on the political views of the listener, everything from a head shaking to a roll of the eyes or more.

The liberal ladies of ABC’s The View love and are paid to criticize and pass judgement of others, but they bristle at the notion of being at the receiving of what they dish out. They proved that again on Thursday when the oldest members of the cast, Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg, took to whining about people threatening to sue them and the critics who think they know what they believe…

The New York Times can’t seem to make up its mind. Is free speech "killing us"? Or is Trump killing free speech?

On CNN This Morning, in a segment on Andrew Cuomo's comeback, journalist Margaret Talev said: "The question is, can you be masculine and embrace your masculinity and also be a decent person at the same time?" The panel floated the notion that the Democrats' problem is a lack of "manly men" candidates, and that Cuomo is filling that lane.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough whines about Jeff Bezos's new editorial policy for his Washington Post, in which the focus will be personal liberties and free markets, without publishing opposing viewpoints. Hypocritical Scarborough ignores the fact that opposing viewpoints to liberal talking points are rarely heard on his own show.

PBS News anchors and reporters have brought the soft soap for sob-story interviews for people losing their jobs thanks to Trump executive orders and Musk-driven budget cuts, without any ideological labels attached to their designated victims. Yet the rare conservative who appears on the News Hour is almost guaranteed to get smacked with at least on warning label. So no…

In an appearance on Wednesday’s CNN Newsroom and in his so-called “Reliable Sources” Newsletter, liberal media janitor Brian Stelter kvetched about President Trump “embracing the role of word police” for barring the Associated Press from official White House events over their refusal to call it the Gulf of America. Meanwhile, Stelter had backed the Biden administration’s attempt to…

The PBS News Hour, along with the rest of the liberal press, have certainly warmed up to the FBI, America’s chief domestic surveillance organization. Since Donald Trump came on the scene, the press has behaved more like a present-day “Friends of the FBI” – the fundraising group founded by supporters of the infamous J. Edgar Hoover – than the bulwark against government spying and…

Following their being found liable for defamation in January, CNN proclaimed in a statement that they “will of course take what useful lessons we can from this case.” But during Monday’s edition of The Lead, host Jake Tapper once again found himself embroiled in controversy when he refused to strongly push back on Democratic Senator Chris Murphy (CT) after he peddled the long-debunked…

Trashing Trump's imposition of a 25% tariff on imports from Canada, CNN cites Canada's role as a US military ally and plays a clip of Canadian PM Trudeau doing the same. By far the most important military ally of the US since the Revolution was the Soviet Union in WWII. By that logic, does CNN condemn the Cold War against the Soviet Union and the imposition of economic sanctions on Russia?

PBS News Hour ran full stories on the hearings for Kash Patel to head the FBI, former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for Health and Human Services. All suffered bruising and sometimes bipartisan criticism, and the coverage was deeply unfavorable to all three nominees. Gabbard perhaps got the worst of it, with tough questioning about…

Did you vote for President Trump in the 2024 presidential election? Well, if you did, ABC co-host Sunny Hostin of The View claimed you were a reason for why an American Airlines jet and an Army Blackhawk helicopter collided in midair over Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. According to her, it was the “very telling” “result” of you wanting to “blow things up” in Washington, D.…

In the wake of President Trump’s Thursday press conference on the deadly and tragic mid-air collision at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA), CBS senior White House correspondent Ed O’Keefe decried Trump for “jumping to conclusions” by saying diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs may have played a role in the incident. But near the end of his segment, O’Keefe started…
