Double Standards

A gross double standard was on display in the New York Times regarding two presidents, Democrat Joe Biden and Republican Donald Trump, each facing accusations of being too old and having memory lapses.

Times reporter Gina Kolata recently put together a defense of President Biden, “Memory Loss Requires Careful Diagnosis, Scientists Say -- A federal investigator said…

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough puts on a goober accent to mock MAGA supporters who believe Donald Trump's claim that he told the leader of a large NATO country that if attacked by Russia, he would not defend it if they were delinquent in their payments, and to the contrary would tell "them," i.e. Putin, to do "whatever the hell they want."

After a busy news day Thursday, a blooming Biden scandal made Friday’s front page via White House correspondent Michael Shear’s “news analysis,” “In Biden’s Exoneration, Political Hazard Emerges,” with the subhead “Prosecutor’s Report on Records Case Cites Memory Lapses.” Shear sounded regretful that special counsel Robert Hur’s report on Biden’s mishandling of classified documents may damage…

It’s well known that Sunny Hostin, co-host of ABC’s The View was a staunchly racist and anti-Semitic person who has repeatedly demanded reparations from the United States and the United Kingdom. But on Thursday, Hostin received the results of a recent genealogy and family history investigation which found that both sides of her family tree OWNED SLAVES. And despite being slapped with…

From Amanpour & Co. to the PBS NewsHour, public television is all over the threat of “Christian Nationalism” as the 2024 presidential campaign gathers steam. Thursday evening’s edition featured perhaps the most conservative-hostile reporter on staff, White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez, to offer its taxpayer-funded liberal alarmism regarding devout Trump…

Factcheck.org may be the least offensive of all the fact-checking websites, but that is a low bar as it still has issues with case selection, but managing editor Lori Robertson claimed on C-SPAN’s Sunday edition of Washington Journal that they do not.

There was much media angst over Donald Trump declaring he would be a dictator on “Day One” of a second term in office to promote border security and oil drilling. Scrape off the spicy language, and it sounds more like the standard executive orders every president issues upon taking…

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers can read a defense, but he recently got caught flat-footed by journalists.

On Tuesday, ousted CNN host Don Lemon announced that he would be attempting to break out of his newfound obscurity and irrelevance with a new show on X (formerly Twitter). The X Business account also said that in addition to Lemon, former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), and veteran sports commentator Jim Rome would also be getting shows. But Lemon’s willingness to jump at a new gig on X…

Amanpour & Co., which airs on taxpayer-supported PBS, on Tuesday called the 2024 elections a “make-or-break moment for democracy” in the “flawed democracy” known as the United States, because of the risks of a victory by former president Donald Trump. The Economist deputy editor Tom Standage talked to Amanpour reporter Hari Sreenivasan, who set up Standage to…

In a brazen act of defiance, on Wednesday, President Joe Biden’s delinquent son Hunter publically refused to comply with a congressional subpoena to appear before Congress in the closed committee hearing. It was an act scored by the liberal media when former President Trump’s allies did it, but now that the parties were reversed MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell cheered it on as “extraordinary”…

First son Hunter Biden got an early Christmas gift from Special Council David Weiss in the form of a brand new federal indictment on felony tax charges. That didn’t sit well with MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell, who opened her eponymous show on Friday by lamenting that Weiss “quoted gritty details from Hunter's own memoir to build his case,” how it was bad “optics” for White House, and that it…

Things took an interesting turn on Friday’s edition of ABC’s The View in the wake of Republican Congressman George Santos (NY) getting ousted from the House in a bipartisan vote. While the liberal ladies generally cheered Santos’s ouster, lines were drawn when the corruption allegations against Democratic Senator Bob Menendez (NJ) were thrown into the mix. Co-hosts Ana Navarro and…

MSNBC blithely reports that Biden made the sign of the Cross at the mention of the name of Lauren Boebert, the Republican congresswoman from Colorado. According to Catholic doctrine, the sign of the Cross is made when someone is afraid, or to ward off the Devil.
