On Monday’s Morning Joe, Politico’s Jonathan Martin joined host Jonathan Lemire to discuss the latter’s latest piece which detailed the real struggle Biden would have to win an election.

May 2nd, 2022 5:16 PM

As part of their weeks-long media tour promoting their book This Shall Not Pass, New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns joined Monday’s CBS Mornings and, as predicted, almost the entirety of their eight-minute-plus segment was devoted to trashing the Republican Party and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) while all but ignoring attempts by the authors to…

Biden Is Reportedly a HUGE Fan of This Insufferable Cable News Show

April 28th, 2022 4:10 PM

In one of the least shocking headlines you’ll see, Politico reported Tuesday that President Biden “regularly watches some [cable news] shows” with MSNBC’s Morning Joe not only being his favorite, but so much that he’s “spoken privately on occasion” with co-hosts and married couple Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski.

December 9th, 2020 11:30 AM

A “Political Memo” filed by New York Times political reporters Jonathan Martin and Astead W.

NY Times or Angry Internet Troll? Hits ‘Facts Optional’ GOP Convention

August 27th, 2020 5:50 PM

On the first night of the Republican National Convention, the New York Times immediately tried to poison the well for the Republicans launch of the 2020 campaign, under the headline “Nominating Trump, Republicans Rewrite His Record.” Meanwhile, the paper helped Biden rewrite his own legislative history regarding the 1994 crime bill.

Nasty NYT: Racist McCloskeys 'Threatened Peaceful Protesters’?

August 25th, 2020 6:00 PM

The Republican National Convention launched last night, and the New York Times launched its contemptuous coverage with Trump-hostile White House correspondent Peter Baker setting the table on Monday’s front page: “As Woes Grow, President Aims To Shift Story.” Baker told a whopper about the now famous McCloskey couple of St. Louis, supposedly “brandishing guns at peaceful Black Lives…

NY Times Relishes Statue Destruction, Avoids Noting Washington, Grant

June 29th, 2020 1:24 PM

The New York Times has openly relished ripping down and vandalizing statues, as demonstrated by the full-page photo essay on the front of the Friday National section under the suspiciously celebratory headline “Dumped, Painted, Toppled, Boxed Up and Hoisted Away.” The removal or destruction of a variety of “racist” monoliths comes with the tacit approval, if not actual applause, of…

NY Times Defends 'Scapegoat' Communist China, Cuba on Disease Response

April 20th, 2020 3:52 PM
The New York Times is quick to attack Donald Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic, but readily defends Communist countries' ways of handling contagious diseases, as on the front of Sunday’s New York Times, “G.O.P. Aiming To Make China The Scapegoat – Bid to Shift Blame Off Trump for Response.” (A guilty party cannot be a “scapegoat,” and China is undeniably guilty.) The same edition…

NYT Wishful Thinking: Coronavirus Could Harm Trump Reelection Chances

March 12th, 2020 8:56 PM
As much as newspapers insist they merely "report," they write up a lot of wishful thinking about how the Republicans are sure to lose in the fall. Such was the case with New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Martin aerobically rubbing a crystal ball on Thursday in "Trump’s Re-election Chances Suddenly Look Shakier."

NY Times Calls on Anita Hill Once Again to Bash Joe Biden on Page One

April 27th, 2019 1:50 PM
Former senator and vice president Joe Biden is officially running for president, and once again went to Anita Hill in its front-page story Friday, “Biden’s ‘Regret’ For Hill’s Pain Fails to Soothe.” Hill is seen by the press as a victim of both Clarence Thomas and the all-white, all-male Senate Judiciary Committee. She made regular appearances in the paper during the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, and…

April 2nd, 2019 6:43 PM
Tuesday’s New York Times kept track of new allegations of inappropriate behavior with women by potential Democratic candidate Joe Biden with “Second Woman Says Biden Made Her Uncomfortable,” by Sydney Ember and Jonathan Martin.
