Jonathan Alter

Appearing as a guest with MSNBC host Jose Diaz Balart to promote his book, MSNBC analystJonathan Alter declared that Donald Trump is "evil" and a "sick F" as he hoped that his book, Day of Reckoning, would convince some voters not to vote for the former President.

Perhaps one reason The Atlantic story alleging Trump is a secret Hitler fan has flopped is because Trump’s critics, such as CBS’s Stephen Colbert, see fascism in the littlest of things. On Thursday’s taping of The Late Show, Colbert tried to suggest that Trump’s desire to hold a rally at Madison Square Garden is some sort of attempt to recall the pro-Nazi rally that took…

On CNN This Morning, liberal author Jonathan Alter gets emotional as he inveighs against Trump, and the risk of electing this "dangerous" man. Host Kasie Hunt teed up Alter, citing statements in an Atlantic article by former Trump aides about his supposed danger. Alter compared Kamala Harris to...Abe Lincoln in 1864.

It’s not even over yet but the month of July has been one chaotic event after another that have exposed not only leftist journalists’ lack of credibility but also decency. The following are the most obnoxious outbursts from leftist journalists and celebrities during the last month:

The Weekend host Michael Steele filled in for Joy Reid on Thursday night’s episode of MSNBC’s The ReidOut, giving an obnoxious tribute to President Joe Biden. During the segment, he invited MSNBC analyst Jonathan Alter to demonstrate the apparently stark contrast between Biden’s “decency” and the “malicious” and “nasty” Republican Party.

On Monday morning, NBC News personalities were reading from the same playbook in making lame comparisons between President Joe Biden and George Washington as NBC presidential historian Michael Beschloss appeared on MSNBC's Morning Joe, and former contributor Jonathan Alter appeared on Morning News NOW. 

Five years ago this week, former President George H. W. Bush passed away at the age of 94. The media’s 2018 retrospectives of Bush and his presidency are an example of how liberal journalists can be like prehistoric bugs stuck in amber, frozen in biased poses struck decades earlier, regardless of how thoroughly they’ve been debunked.

Twenty years ago, CBS faced a firestorm after a leaked script to the New York Times showed the network’s upcoming mini-series, The Reagans, was an inaccurate and unfair portrayal of the 40th President, then in the final months of his battle with Alzheimer’s disease.

Thirty years ago this week, Bill and Hillary Clinton outlined their ill-fated plan for unprecedented government intervention in the health care sector. The liberal media loudly crowed their approval, assuring voters “reform” would end the “shame” of America as the only developed nation without universal coverage.

PBS celebrated the return of the ancient “October Surprise” election conspiracy theory -- the unsubstantiated rumor that Ronald Reagan’s 1980 presidential campaign, led by William Casey, delayed the release of the 52 American hostages in Iran in order to win election over Democrat Jimmy Carter. The original version was advanced by former Carter aide Gary Sick before being discredited…

The unhinged partisan hacks at MSNBC used the early hours of Wednesday morning to combine glee with rage, trashing the GOP “devils” and hailing “Queen” Stacey Abrams for her work in Tuesday’s Georgia special elections. Also, according to former Newsweek editor Jonathan Alter, democracy can only be “restored” when all Republicans are banished. 

All this week, NewsBusters is recounting the most obnoxious liberal bias of 2020.

Appearing as a guest on Friday's The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell, MSNBC contributor Jonathan Alter declared that President Donald Trump and Republican governors have "rivers of blood" on their hands because of the pandemic, and that the President is a "public health menace."
