NPR Helps Democrats Explain How They'll Stop Losing Latino Voters
November 20th, 2021 7:43 AM
The Democrats are freaking out at how they didn't dominate the Latino vote as they expected in 2021 (or in 2020, for that matter). So now the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has shared their new minority-engagement plan exclusively with NPR race-beat reporter Juana Summers. How cozy. Summers provided a platform for DCCC chairman Sean Patrick Maloney, a congressman from New York.…
Press Apparently Has Its Scalp Even As Ronny Jackson Smears Refuted
April 30th, 2018 8:56 AM
The American people don't trust the establishment press, as seen in a Pew Research poll result released Thursday showing that only 8 percent of Americans have "a great deal of confidence" that the media will "act in the best interests of the public." Here is one more example showing why this attitude is entirely justified: The Secret Service, after a thorough investigation…

February 23rd, 2015 3:07 PM
Jonathan Martin of the New York Times targeted Scott Walker on CNN's New Day on Monday over his "gotcha game" attack on the media." Martin contended that Governor Walker "doesn't want to answer these kinds of questions – which is problematic, but it also gives him an opportunity on the right." He added that "it's all kind of a depressing, cynical…
Whining Spitzer, Who Beat the Rap Because of Who He Is: Zimmerman Verd
July 15th, 2013 12:59 PM
On ABC's This Week yesterday, former New York Governor Eliot Spitzer -- who resigned in 2008 when caught dead to rights illegally purchasing the services of prostitutes but was never prosecuted because, as announced two days after Election Day in 2008, the Department of Justice decided that "the public interest would not be further advanced by filing criminal charges" -- called…
Eastwood's 'Empty Chair' Speech Gets Under Big Labor's Skin, Provokes
September 3rd, 2012 10:56 PM
The Politico, in its report on what turned out to be the center-right's "Empty Chair Day," covered the reaction of one prominent member of organized labor to Clint Eastwood's supposedly horrible (if you believe leftist pundits) speech at the Republican National Convention.
If it was really that awful, they would be taking pity on Clint. Instead, they're getting hostile,…
Journolist Redux? AP's Peoples and Politico's Summers Write Oddly Simi
August 16th, 2012 11:51 AM
Earlier today (at NewsBusters; at BizzyBlog), I noted how the Associated Press's Steve Peoples and Politico's Juana Summers could only find hundreds of people attending GOP vice-presidential pick Paul Ryan's Wednesday appearance at Oxford, Ohio's Miami University. Perhaps even more troubling is how they somehow chose an odd angle for their coverage, namely that Ryan has…
AP, Politico Claim Ryan Rally Attended by 'Hundreds,' Local Reports Sa
August 16th, 2012 11:12 AM
UPDATE: In its video report, but not in its accompanying text, Cincinnati Local 12 News reported that the crowd was over 6,000, and that "a whole line of people were turned away, because there wasn't enough room."
It would appear that Politico's Juana Summers and the Associated Press's Steve Peoples have an unusual and nearly identical problem with math. Yesterday, they…
