Double Standards

There is a perception, supported by many surveys, that what passes for contemporary journalism is more biased, even propagandistic, than in earlier times. One of the definitions of "journalism" on Dictionary.com will affirm that attitude for many: "writing that reflects superficial thought and research, a popular slant, and hurried composition..." Journalism has, in fact, been infected by bias…

If we’ve learned anything about the news media during the pandemic, it’s that they care more about gawking at people on TV instead of genuine, unvarnished compassion for those suffering (especially business owners). And that notion was quite evident on Tuesday’s NBC Nightly News when, out of one side of their mouth, the network decried states for deciding to reopen. And with the other…

They were his attack dogs during the campaign, but now that he's President of the United States, the liberal media were Joe Biden’s lapdogs. And instead of being on guard like they were during the Trump administration, the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) came when called and rolled over Monday evening as they gushed about Biden’s two German Shepherds finally moving into the White House…

The New York Times remains devout in showing respect for religion -- of the liberal variety -- in its coverage of the new Biden Administration. “Faith and politics” reporter Elizabeth Dias’s lead story in Sunday’s National section of the New York Times gullibly relayed “Liberal Christianity Ascends With Biden’s Faith.”

Aside from ABC chief anchor George Stephanopoulos’s fiery exchange with Senator Rand Paul (R-KY), Sunday’s This Week was awash with ridiculous and repugnant pronouncements from their mostly liberal cast. Between suggesting America was getting over something akin to Nazism and proclaiming the extremist violence from the left was morally justified, ABC was out to normalize dangerous…

On Thursday night’s handoff between Cuomo Primetime and CNN Tonight, Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon collaborated for yet another hateful attack on the right. Lemon proclaimed that those on “the right” need “to be deprogrammed” and stated that “conservative media” and House and Senate Republicans are empowering extremist groups such as the Proud Boys and QAnon.

Perhaps one of the most exasperating things about the liberal media is that it accuses everyone that disagrees with it of lying while simultaneously lying through its teeth. On Saturday's Velshi, MSNBC host Ali Velshi demonstrated this stunning lack of self-awareness by pompously declaring that Donald Trump’s administration caused “the death of shame” and alleging that before the…

CNN Newsroom host Brianna Keilar took the media's relief that there is now a president who supposedly cares about truth to a whole new level on Thursday when she argued that this can be seen in how the Biden Administration has decorated the Oval Office.

Of all the tonal shifts you'll see from the liberal media now that Joe Biden is president, the abrupt change from "everything is awful" to "everything is awesome" will be most stark on CNN. That could be seen on Thursday as Anderson Cooper and his guests raved over Biden's COVID plan. It's "factual," "very honest, "very evidence-based." 

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki returned for a second briefing late Thursday afternoon and, after Dr. Tony Fauci and the press corps had a friendly, laugh-filled chat about the evils of the Trump administration, she took her turn for yet another relatively pressure-free briefing. However, Psaki faced a few exceptions, led by the Fox Business Network’s Blake Burman on the Keystone XL…

Not only were the liberal media trying to exploit the attack on the Capitol to call for the deplatforming of conservatives, but there were some who wanted to “deprogram” conservatives. And in a Thursday evening appearance on Fox Business Network’s The Evening Edit, Media Research Center Founder and President Brent Bozell called them out for demanding what communist dictators had done…

The liberal media and Hollywood left are telling you the Capitol riots were “atrocities,” an “armed insurrection” and “violent sedition against our government” and trying to link all Trump supporters to them. Over 50 Hollywood celebrities celebrated one set of riots and criticized the other. Famous people like Rob Reiner, Ron Perlman and Seth Rogen claimed that the events on January 6 were a “…

When President Trump took office four years ago and took a pen and a phone to President Obama’s signature policy accomplishments, the liberal media looked on in horror as they decried Trump for dismantling his legacy. But now, they looked on with glee as President Biden set out to “unravel the last four years,” as the CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell put it, with a stack of 17…

If CNN PrimeTime host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo was known for anything, it was his desire to use physical violence against his opponents at nearly every turn. Whether it was threatening to throw a Trump supporter down a flight of stairs, fantasizing about choking and punching his critics, to openly threatening the lives of Republican lawmakers, violence was part of who he was. But on Monday…
