NYT's Bruni Blames Trump, Mike Johnson for Escalation at Columbia
On Tuesday's Erin Burnett OutFront, New York Times columnist Frank Bruni made a lame effort to blame Republicans Donald Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson for the escalation by far-left anti-Israel protesters at Columbia University that included taking over and occupying an academic building.
CBS Fawns Over Climate Thugs Blocking Traffic, Harassing Conservatives
Like being able to visit museums without climate freaks throwing soup on world-renowned paintings? Looking to enjoy a night out at a gala? Need a peaceful commute without anyone blocking the road? If the answer to any of these questions is no, CBS Mornings all but said no way, Jose. On Thursday, they ran a lengthy puff piece fawning over Climate Defiance and even followed them as they…
No, Demonstrations Today Not Like the 1960s
The current demonstrations on college campuses against Israel remind some of the unrest on college campuses during the 1960s. But the comparison is not a good one. The unrest of the 1960s was defined by the war in Vietnam and by the Civil Rights Movement. Both had practical, personal impact on young Americans in their own country. American soldiers were fighting and dying in Vietnam. There was…
Doocy, Gutierrez Grill Inept KJP on Biden Dodging Pro-Hamas Thugs
Before being shamed into speaking on-camera Thursday to the American people about the dangerous anti-Semitic hooligans who’ve thrown college campus into chaos, Wednesday’s White House press briefing was dominated by numerous reporters — including Fox’s Peter Doocy, Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann, and even NBC’s Gabe Gutierrez — pressing the ever-inept Karine Jean-Pierre on why Biden hasn…
MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Frets Campus Protests May Lead To Next Reagan Era
While discussing the ongoing NYPD clearing of the virulent anti-semitic protest at Columbia University, MSNBC host Alex Wagner and her guest, New York Times columnist Michelle Goldberg, noticed the historic parallels between this moment and 1968- and where it ultimately led.
CNN: ‘Escalation’ by Police Disrupted ‘Peaceful’ (Pro-Hamas) Students
During a rare moment Tuesday when CNN wasn’t obsessing over the first Trump trial, correspondent Dianne Gallagher used a live shot from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to fret police caused “a very intense escalation” with pro-Hamas students, whom she said were merely holding a “rally and silent vigil” with “dancing and chanting” amid their tent cities.
Lessons From Other Campus Protests
The year was 1966 and Ronald Reagan was running for governor of California. A major part of his platform was to “clean up the mess at Berkeley” and other college campuses throughout the state that were experiencing protests and strikes over issues that included the military draft, civil rights and “women’s issues.” While not on a scale of the pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, anti-America and Jewish…
Scarborough Backtracks: I Was Only Mocking 'White Woke Pampered' Kids
On Morning Joe, the day after he had harshly criticized pro-Hamas campus protesters and the administrators who have failed to discipline them, Joe Scarborough backtracks, saying he was only speaking of "white, woke, pampered elitists." Scarborough did so after receiving criticism from some viewers over his previous remarks.
Scarborough: Failure To Put Down Campus Protests Could Elect Trump!
On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough condemns weak college administrators for their failure to put down pro-Hamas campus protests. He warns that, just as protests in the 1960s led to the election of Richard Nixon, the current protests could lead to the election of Donald Trump, which may be "the last election in American history."
The Most Disturbing Part of It
The Big Ten, the Pac-12, and the Ivy League are overrun with antisemitic students protesting in favor of Hamas. They claim they support Palestinians, but “Globalize the intifada” and “Palestine will be free from the river to the sea” are explicit genocidal slogans of Hamas. Democrats insist words mean things. These words mean the students are terrorist sympathizers. Some of the protestors are…
CNN Analyst Demands Colleges ‘Allow Space’ for Anti-Semitic Rallies
Anti-Semitic and pro-Hamas rallies have been spreading like hateful wildfire across American universities, with encampments spouting up in UT Austin and Harvard on Wednesday. And on CNN News Central that afternoon, Harvard professor and former Obama DHS official Juliette Kayyem demanded that universities like hers “allow space” for those mini-Nuremberg rallies.
Networks Praise Pro-Hamas ‘Solidarity Movement’ Spreading, Promote BDS
The three major American broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) were out in force Wednesday morning as all three of them took to praising the pro-Hamas extremists taking over college campuses across the country. Ignoring the raging antisemitism that was on full display and captured on videos circulating on social media, they praised the “solidary movement” that was spreading to more campuses.…
WHAT? Threats Against Jews Disappear From Pro-Hamas Protest Coverage
The evening network newscasts are barely into their second weeknight covering the violent, pro-Hamas protests outside Columbia University and throughout college campuses across the nation, and there is already a discernible shift in their coverage. Direct threats against Jewish students have all but disappeared from coverage.
NYT Reporter Stuns CNN's Goldberg Spinning for Anti-Semitic Protesters
On Tuesday's CNN This Morning, while right-leaning contributor Jonah Goldberg was complaining about the anti-Semitic, pro-Hamas rhetoric used by some protesters on college campuses, New York Times reporter Lulu Garcia-Navarro got snippy as she jumped in to cut him off and argue against the use of police against left-wing protesters harassing Jewish students.
