Margaret Hoover

PBS likes to pretend they have a conservative host on staff, but Firing Line’s Margaret Hoover is anything but. Between being married to Democratic congressional candidate John Avlon (also a former Republican for CNN) and her Monday comments on CNN News Central, Hoover proved it. And in those comments, she lashed out at one sitting Republican member of Congress and a famous…

As first reported back on February 9 by fellow former CNN colleague and Puck founding partner Dylan Byers, now-former longtime CNN senior political analyst and all-around tool John Avlon announced Wednesday morning that he’s running for Congress in New York’s first congressional district (anchored on Long Island) as a Democrat.

Journalist Tim Alberta is author of The Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory: American Evangelicals in an Age of Extremism, a book touted as the author’s “deeply personal examination of the divisions that threaten to destroy the American evangelical movement.” He’s been making the rounds of friendly liberal media outlets lamenting fear-based evangelical Christian loyalty to Donald Trump…

Firing Line host Margaret Hoover talked to liberal historian, presidential biographer, and current Biden speechwriter Jon Meacham, who made some bizarre modern-day comparisons to President Abraham Lincoln and denied he was a Democrat, in the latest edition of the relaunched public affairs show on PBS. Meacham predictably cited Lincoln, the subject of his latest biography, and found…

Appearing as a guest on the latest episode of PBS's Firing Line, MSNBC host Al Sharpton let it be known that he has not backed down from his infamous claims from 1987 that a teenage black girl was raped by several NYPD cops, which was ultimately found to be a hoax by a grand jury.

This weekend, Texas Senator Ted Cruz said (unsurprisingly) that he thought Obergefell v. Hodges — the 2015 Supreme Court decision that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide — was wrongly decided. Predictably, the panel of CNN’s New Day on Monday morning took Cruz’s remarks out of context to bash the Texas Senator and the “right extreme of the base” that is still opposed to…

According to a Monday New Day panel on CNN consisting of Margaret Hoover and Bakari Sellers, Stacey Abrams posing for a photo without a mask surrounded by masked children was not hypocritical, but rather just an honest mistake.

California Governor Gavin Newsom is trying to one up Texas by making an anti-gun law that is modeled after their SB8 law, which bans elective abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected. He wants to allow private citizens in California to sue anyone selling or manufacturing "assault weapons."

On Sunday morning, Margaret Hoover demonstrated why she is the kind of Republican CNN likes to retain as contributors for the liberal news network as she longed for a Republican party that would support more gun control.

On Sunday’s CNN Newsroom, host Ana Cabrera collaborated with a favorite liberal media couple of senior political commentator John Avlon and political commentator and host of PBS’s Firing Line Margaret Hoover to wax poetic about President Joe Biden’s whopping $3 trillion economic plan and convince viewers that those standing in his way were showing they're opposed to growing…
