Maggie Haberman

Maggie Haberman of The New York Times reports that the time for hardball has arrived. The Republican National Committee says it may require candidates to pledge to not participate in debates run by the Commission on Presidential Debates. In recent years, the moderators have caused controversy by insisting on "fact checking" the Republicans (and aiding the impression of…

Today we present the WORST OF 2021: The Media Heroes Award.

Katie Pavlich at Townhall reports that during a "Santa Tracker" event with the Bidens on Christmas Eve, a parent ended his conversation with by saying, "Let's Go Brandon." Biden then said it back, like he didn't know what it means. Reporters expressed anger. This isn't a classy Christmas move at all, but reporters sounded like Biden voters. 

CNN’s morning show New Day spent two segments today whining about the anti-Biden “Let’s Go Brandon” joke trend often heard at sports stadiums across the country. Despite delighting in foul outbursts from Democrats about President Trump, CNN pretended to be bothered by expletives, because they were directed at a Democrat president.

CNN's New Day panel defends AOC wearing a Tax the Rich dress to a $30,000-a-ticket Met Gala, suggesting it was brave for her to do so and the opposite of hobnobbing.

See if you can wrap your head around this one: The media, who instantly dismissed the COVID-19 lab leak theory as a “conspiracy” when President Trump was in office touting it, now are suddenly parroting this same theory as plausible, with President Biden in office. Yet they are still blaming the former administration for “politicizing” the intelligence findings.

On CNN, New Day co-host John Berman, saying it was "almost biblical" how House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy might be "hanging [Liz Cheney] out to dry," says, that McCarthy's comments "were almost biblical. Like, three times he denied her."

CNN New Day co-host John Berman gloats over the fact that Melania Trump is the first First Lady to leave the White House with a net-negative approval rating. Manifesting the kind of negative coverage the liberal media has given Melania for years, he claims she "could not be bothered" to extend courtesies to the Bidens. As if she had a choice?

Remember when the liberal media claimed that they couldn’t discuss the Hunter Biden story because it was unverified and potentially foreign interference? Apparently CNN doesn't. Throughout the three hours of Friday’s New Day, the partisan journalists repeatedly harped on the litany of allegations and investigations against Donald Trump without…

The New York Times tried to hurry the vote-counting process along and declare Joe Biden the winner on Thursday’s front page: "If President Trump loses his bid for re-election, as looked increasingly likely on Wednesday, it would be the first defeat of an incumbent president in 28 years." The Times also saw Trump celebrating a “mirage of victory” (even though ballots were…

On Friday's New Day show, CNN ran multiple segments reacting to the presidential debate discussion of border security as CNN regulars tried to correct President Donald Trump's statements, but ended up misinforming their own viewers in the process.

The New York Times really stepped in it in Friday’s lead story, “President Lashes Out At His Aides With Calls To Indict Political Rivals.” In the rush by reporters Peter Baker and Maggie Haberman to show President Trump as a conspiratorial madman, the paper indulged in its own left-wing conspiracy, involving an allegedly faked-up trip by Trump to the South Lawn.

It is one thing for the media to discuss Wednesday’s vice presidential debate and give their analysis. It is another to openly complain about the lack of attacks one candidate made on the other. This is exactly what both NBC and CNN did in the wake of the faceoff. On Thursday morning, CNN New Day co-host John Berman worried that Kamala Harris’s coronavirus attacks were not harsh enough: “That…

The New York Times’ front-page “news analysis” by Peter Baker and Maggie Haberman, “Fanning Strife With Kenosha In His Sights,” continued the paper’s pathetic pivot from ignoring violence at the “mostly peaceful” demonstrations in U.S. cities to blaming it on Trump, who is visiting Kenosha, Wisconsin, cite of the latest rioting, on Tuesday. The distortions started in the lead sentence…
