Acosta Follows Press Tradition: Harass GOP Admins, Go Easy on Dems
CNN's insufferably self-important Jim Acosta made the news all about himself once again on Tuesday.

Newsweek Injects Bias, Distortion in Covering... Pence Family's Pets
At what little is left of Newsweek, reporter John Haltiwanger published a story on the unfortunate deaths of several pets in Vice President Mike Pence's family during the past two years.

Churlish NYT Refuses to Credit Trump for Economy: 'Tax Cuts May Burn'
Saturday’s New York Times lead desperately tried to spin away the strong Trump economy by warning of hypothetical dangers from a tax cut plan that’s not passed into law yet or even set in stone yet: “Sizzling Economy Carries Warning: Tax Cuts May Burn – Concerns of Inflation – Jobs Report Lifts Trump but Raises Specter of ‘Boom-Bust Cycle.” It's a churlish pattern on the part of the paper, which…

ABC Spends More Time on Franken’s ‘Irony’ Than Actual Resignation
In a Thursday morning address on the Senate floor, Minnesota Democratic Senator Al Franken announced that he would step down from office as pressure mounted from his female colleagues.

Franken Resigns, NYT Paints Dems on 'High Ground,' Tough on Themselves
The front of Thursday’s New York Times anticipated today’s resignation by Sen.

NYT Still ‘Alarmed’ by Trump’s ‘Dangerous’ Move Recognizing Jerusalem
President Trump, fulfilling a promise that other presidents have made but failed to keep, recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and started the process of moving the American Embassy from Tel Aviv.
