Jake Tapper

For years now, the liberal media have been telling us the county is in a “cold civil war” or a “neo-civil war” because people and policies they don’t like have popularity. But according to CNN’s Anderson Cooper during the network’s January 6 primetime special (Live From the Capitol: January 6th, One Year Later) it was the folks at “other networks” – aka Fox News – that were “relishing…

On the cusp of an absolute glut of liberal-media anniversary coverage of the January 6 riot, CNN media reporter Brian Stelter was cranky. “We live in a world where Donald Trump's top supporters malign the media for being ‘obsessed’ with January 6.” He argued anyone who thinks this story is overdone is someone "best explained by psychologists or therapists or algorithm developers."

CNN is ending 2021 the same way they spent most of it: in the gutter. Late Wednesday, news broke that yet another CNN producer was under “criminal investigation” for sexually preying on minors. This time it was the producer for Jake Tapper’s weekday show The Lead, Rick Saleeby.

Subverting the expectations of some of his critics and going back to how he used to do things, CNN’s Jake Tapper spent over eight minutes on Thursday’s edition of The Lead going after Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) for her opposition to measures that would make Congress more ethical and crackdown on insider trading. He even brought on the former director of the Office of Government…

On Monday, CNSNews Morning Managing Editor Susan Jones reported on a softball Sunday interview CNN anchor Jake Tapper conducted with controversial far-left Congresswoman Ilhan Omar in which he gave the Democrat “a platform to condemn the ‘hateful, bigoted comments’ made about her by Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert,” but “never mentioned the ‘hateful, bigoted comments’ for which Omar was forced…

Hours after Decision Desk called the Virginia gubernatorial race for Republican Glenn Youngkin in a come-from-behind upset Tuesday, CNN finally got around early Wednesday to admitting to the writing on the wall as the GOP swept the races for governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general, and then took the majority in the House of Delegates. CNN’s response? Declaring the country “incredibly…

CNN's Jake Tapper used Alec Baldwin's accidental fatal shooting of a woman as an opportunity to denounce a series of Republicans for mean tweets about the tragedy. But Tapper didn't recall Alec Baldwin's unrepentant meanness when Dick Cheney accidentally shot a friend on a hunting trip.

On CNN's State of the Union today, host Jake Tapper gets off quite the zinger to end his interview with DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Mayorkas had lavished praise on the Border Patrol, describing their "heroism," and saying he has been "incredibly proud to work alongside them."

With a torrent of news to discuss about the disastrous U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, weekday evening/Sunday morning analyst Nick “Night Train” Fondacaro and I had plenty to talk about on Wednesday’s episode of the NewsBusters podcast. We first dove into litany of liberal journalists that have provided admirable and stinging coverage holding the Biden administration to account on…

The day after he pulled all U.S. troops out of Afghanistan, abandoning some 200 Americans in a terrorist safe haven, President Biden delivered an address to the nation where he literally shouted at the majority of Americans who knew he was responsible for the evacuation disaster. And CNN’s Jake Tapper wasn’t going to let the issue of Americans getting left behind stand during Tuesday’s edition…

Late last week, Politico put out a disturbing report that the Biden administration – desperate to play nice with murderous terrorists – handed over what a Pentagon official called a “kill list” of American and Afghan allies’ names to the Taliban. Obviously, Americans were outraged and CNN anchor Jake Tapper and NBC political director Chuck Todd grilled National Security advisor Jake Sullivan…

On Monday’s edition of The Lead, CNN’s Jake Tapper probably put it best when he said that President Biden had to be “forced” to make a public statement about his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, which left thousands of Americans and allies trapped in Kabul and scrambling for their lives. Immediately after Biden delivered his address and left without taking questions – to return…

The president of Afghanistan has reportedly fled the country, the United States flag was taken down at the embassy and secreted away with the ambassador, and throngs of people were seen on video desperately trying to climb into the back of American military cargo planes before takeoff with reports the airport was under fire from the Taliban. That’s the state President Biden left Afghanistan in…

In The Wall Street Journal, former political strategist decried partisanship in the media, including CNN anchor Jake Tapper's ostentatious refusal to interview "election denier" Republicans. Rove noted 32 House Democrats voted against certifying George W. Bush's victory in 2004, but Tapper interviews these "election denier" Democrats routinely.
