The liberal press reaction to criticism of Alvin Bragg and his "puppet master" George Soros with outrage and accusations of racism and anti-Semitism. The New York Times went down the same path: “George Soros Is a Familiar Villain for the Right Wing in Trump’s Indictment.”

 

Irony: NYT Frets Over Media Censorship in Serbia, Cheers U.S. Big Tech

The New York Times is concerned about media censorship and bias -- in Serbia. “Eastern Europe Tests New Forms of Media Censorship,” by Andrew Higgins from Belgrade, appeared in Monday’s paper and it was both ironic and rich to see the Times devote 1,500 words to a story of how governments in Serbia, Poland, and Hungary are leaning on independent media outlets that don’t toe…

 

NY Times Compares Trump Election Claims to Stalin, Hitler’s ‘Big Lie’

The hypocrisy is blatant: While Big Tech giants Twitter, Apple, Facebook, etc., are gleefully banning the sitting president and prominent conservative activists from public platforms while simultaneously using their monopoly power to squelch competition (the free-speech Twitter alternative Parler), the New York Times breezily compares Trump to Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin…

 

LAZY, PATHETIC NYT Compares Trump to Dictators Mugabe, Pinochet

President Trump’s refusal so far to concede Election 2020 to Democrat Joe Biden, nine whole days after Election Day and with over two months left in his first term, and with the official Electoral College count still over a month away, terrified the New York Times into comparing him to a motley crew of world dictators, in a repellent story on the front page of Thursday’s edition: “…

 

NY Times Compares Trump's 'Enemy of the People' Slam to Stalin, Mao

Another result of the Trump administration: It has made die-hard anti-Communists out of the New York Times. After Trump accused fake news purveyors of being an “enemy of the people," the Times talked about the depredations of international communism on its front page Monday, if only to compare Trump to Josef Stalin and Mao Tse-tung.  Andrew Higgins' dispatch was headlined “Phrase With a Venomous…
 

NYT Takes Defeatist Attitude to Nice Terror, Claimed 'No Terror Links'

The New York Times is notorious for downplaying or ignoring links to radical Islam in the wake of terror attacks, and its response to the truck massacre in Nice, France mostly followed that pattern, with a news columnist shrugging off the idea the war on terror could ever be won and a front-page headline confidently stating the perpetrator was “A Surly Misfit With No Terror Links....” the morning…
 

NYT, Still Fighting Brexit, Crams Paper With Art Snobs and 'Racism'

July 10th, 2016 4:42 PM
Wednesday’s New York Times was crammed with condescension and hostility toward racist Brexit voters. Rachel Donadio had previously “credited” “a campaign of open xenophobia” for the victory of the Leave choice. On Wednesday she peppered some left-wing British in writing and theatre fields with loaded questions, and they delivered the artists’ predictable low opinions of their fellow citizen-…
 

Hearing on IRS With Lerner Taking the Fifth? Newspapers Had No Front P

Believe it or not, none of the largest national newspapers put an article on Wednesday’s IRS hearings on the front page. The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal had a picture of Lois Lerner, but sent the reader to an inside page for the story. The New York Times and USA Today offered no picture, either. USA Today has an excuse: it put Lerner taking the Fifth on Wednesday’s front page…
 

Washington Post Still Avoiding Describing Chinese Dissident Chen As a

In the domain of what properly constitutes human rights issues, forced abortions and sterilizations have to fall in that category. So why isn't the Washington Post describing Chinese dissident Chen Guangcheng as a "human rights activist"? In two stories packaged side-by-side on page A9 of the May 8 paper, the Post's Andrew Higgins and Keith B. Richburg failed to use the term to describe Chen…
