Labeling

A front-page New York Times story Saturday by Reid Epstein managed to pack in 18 hostile ideological labels into an 1,800-word story on a sadly familiar theme at the paper -- how far Texas is hurdling to “the right" politically under GOP control -- in “Can Texas Turn Further Right? Top 2 Republicans Say It Can.” The paper is running versions of this same story every week now, leading…

On Monday, CBS This Morning drew criticism from the reasonable when they blamed former President Trump for the plight of the protesting Cuban people. But later that night, CBS Evening News made a blatant reversal of messaging as they became the only broadcast network that evening to not only say the word “communism” but also blamed the “six decades of communist rule” for…

Telemundo encontró una manera de asociar el zoológico interactivo de una parroquia en Mission, Texas, con su agenda contra Greg Abbott antes de la campaña para la gobernación de 2022. Los niños migrantes quedan plasmados como víctimas de una "guerra" en su contra, mientras que Abbott se convierte en un monstruo por apoyar el muro fronterizo.

The New York Times’ fear of “ultraconservative” Texas is getting ridiculous in Thursday's story by Nick Corasaniti and Edgar Sandoval, “Texas Governor Pushes State Further to the Right On Voting Rights and Race.” The paper has made a bad habit of scary stories with scary labeling about how much further to the right Texas has gotten: The special session, set to begin on Thursday,…

In another example of liberal gaslighting, a coalition of leftist activists has come together to tell the media that they are not being sympathetic enough to their causes and explain how they can become better allies.

In their morning show Hoy Dia, Telemundo journalist Aranxta Loizaga very negatively framed coverage of the Supreme Court’s decision to continue to uphold two laws that protect voting integrity in Arizona, depicting them as restricting voting rights and discriminating against minorities.

An embarrassingly fulsome tribute to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer movement on Tuesday extended the New York Times’ outsized attention to a minority group that defines itself based on sexuality: “They Came to Slay: L.G.B.T.Q. Trailblazers,” interviews with five “L.G.B.T.Q. people of color.” L.G.B.T.Q. advocacy has long infiltrated the paper’s cultural sections and…

Despite her best yet pathetic efforts Wednesday night to win a debate about Critical Race Theory by yelling over her guest, putting words in his mouth, and trying to deny reality, MSNBC ReidOut host Joy Reid didn’t stand a chance against the Manhattan Institute’s Christopher Rufo, who she had a dust-up with on Twitter after she attacked him on her show.

On the front page of Monday’s New York Times, religion reporters Elizabeth Dias and Ruth Graham joined up for “In Rift With Biden, a Dramatic Show of Force by a Conservative Catholic Movement.” The lead was spectacularly wrongheaded: "Pope Francis and President Biden, both liberals, are the two most high-profile Roman Catholics in the world. But in the United States, neither of these…

“Ultra”-labeling bias reigned in Saturday’s New York Times, in which various political stories slammed “ultraconservative” Republicans in Congress, but coddled lefties with flattering labels. Reporter Catie Edmondson threw around labels left and (hard) right. She managed the mouthful “ultraconservative” twice in a single story, “G.O.P. Replaces a Trump Critic With a Trump Convert.” (“…

New York Times congressional reporter Carl Hulse continued to protect Democrats against Republicans in Saturday’s edition, “Republicans Amplify Culture-War Issues In Bid to Regain Power.” (Um, isn’t the point of electoral politics to gain power?) The Times has been on a kick of late painting the Republican Party as desperately lurching to weaponize “culture…

The Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon told Fox News he was considering taking legal action against The New York Times after it labeled the satirical news site “misinformation.”

After falsely smearing the Georgia voting bill as racist, MSNBC is now helping the Democrats attack Florida’s anti-riot bill. On Sunday morning’s Velshi, MSNBC host Ali Velshi brought on far-left Rutgers professor and author Brittney Cooper to continue the network’s false assault on the legislation. Cooper went on a hateful tirade where she alleged that the GOP is working for “…

MSNBC has long displayed its hatred for Trump supporters and it is continuing to show its contempt even now that he is out of office. On Sunday afternoon’s Alex Witt Reports, MSNBC host Alex Witt brought on political analyst and MSNBC host Mehdi Hassan to go on an unhinged diatribe against Trump voters. The hateful Hassan justified Hillary Clinton labeling Trump supporters “…
