Cornish: Ending Birthright Citizenship Would ‘Piss Off’ New Parents

On Monday's episode of CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish left no doubt where her sympathies lie in the debate over birthright citizenship: squarely with those opposing any limits on the practice. “Does anyone on this panel have kids other than me?” Cornish asked. When Michael Scherer of The Atlantic answered "yes," Cornish continued: “Okay, do you remember being in the hospital, and do you…

PBS Fears ‘Constitutional Crisis,’ Casts Trump as Chair-Hurling Knight

Before journalist Jeffrey Goldberg’s revelation that he’d been privy to a national security text thread discussing war plans by the Trump White House, the Atlantic’s editor in chief hosted another busy episode of public television’s Washington Week with The Atlantic, where Washington Post columnist David Ignatius and Atlantic writer Michael Scherer helped him hype the “constitutional crisis” (…

WashPost Refuses to Be Shamed When Democracy Could Die in a Shooting

The Washington Post shamelessly jumped right into the “no evidence” game on Sunday when Republicans complained that all of the Left’s routinely extreme demonization of Donald Trump could inspire violence. You know why: The Post has aggressively fanned the authoritarian fascist flames. "Democracy Dies in Darkness" was all about Trump.

WashPost Relays Democrat Groups Aiming to Trash Biden Buckraking Probe

The Page One story at top left of the Sunday Washington Post was headlined "Hunter Biden allies set to battle accusers." They report on a mostly anonymous pile of Democrats debating how to take down the Republican probes into Hunter's global buckraking off his father's name.

LOL: WashPost Warns of Democrats Putting Out Fake Newspapers

On their front page on Saturday, The Washington Post reported on the latest form of Democrat trickery: "Newspapers with a partisan aim filling the void of traditional media." They're right to call out this deceptive tactic of using the "trappings" of real newspapers to spread Democrat messaging. But seriously, doesn't this also sound a lot like....The Washington Post?

Bloomberg Shifts Massive Ad Campaign to Support Impeaching Trump

Business
Liberal billionaire 2020 Democratic candidate and Bloomberg News owner Michael Bloomberg said he’d have to “swallow two or three times” before he would “vote to convict” President Donald Trump. But that may have just been political theater. Bloomberg intends to “shift his television ad message this week to directly call for President Trump’s removal from office, with a new spot that will run in…

Only ONE of 122 WashPost Stories Admit Bezos Urged Bloomberg Bid

Business
The Washington Post’s owner reportedly urged fellow billionaire Michael Bloomberg to run for president. Just don’t expect to see that admitted often by The Post. A LexisNexis search revealed that The Post ran at least 122 stories (a mix of news and opinion) that mentioned Bloomberg’s potential candidacy or actual bid for the White House between Nov. 9, 2019, and Dec. 9, 2019.

WashPost Spills Major Ink Bashing Trump as Racist, Defending the Squad

While NewsBusters has spent a copious amount of words this week on the liberal bias on television this week against the President for his criticism of the squad, a review of The Washington Post showed that it spilled more than its share of ink to defend the so-called “Squad” over the course of 16 print stories from Monday to Friday, ranging from supposedly straight news items to some that…

Is Michael Bloomberg a Centrist? The Washington Post Can Pretend

At this point, is Michael Bloomberg really anywhere near the center? The Washington Post pretended it was so on Sunday in a Michael Scherer article titled "A political aberration courts the Democratic nomination." To be a stitch to the right of today's Democratic Party is not the "center," just like being a stitch to the right of the ultraliberals in Manhattan is not the "center."

Media Ice Cream Scream: Trump Takes 2 Scoops With Dessert

Time Magazine published a side piece by Michael Scherer and Zeke J. Miller accompanying its primary story on Miller's interview with the President. In "Donald Trump After Hours," the pair observed that "At the dessert course, he (Trump) gets two scoops of vanilla ice cream with his chocolate cream pie, instead of the single scoop for everyone else." Hard as it might be to believe, some unhinged…

TIME Magazine Puts Bannon, Never Axelrod, On Cover

On Thursday's Morning Joe, the panel discussed TIME Magazine's latest cover of White House Chief Strategist and Special Counselor Steve Bannon captioned "The Great Manipulator." It is imporant to note, unlike former Bush senior adviser Karl Rove and former Obama adviser David Axelrod, Bannon has been dubbed as if he is the "president's brain." The former was on the cover of TIME in 2005, while…

NYT Caught Altering Christie Story: Port Authority Official No Longer

Longtime readers here may recall that yours truly and others have written about liberties New York Times reporter Kate Zernike has taken with the truth, especially in her reporting on the Tea Party movement. Her penchant for inventing baseless stories about alleged racism in the movement once caused the late Andrew Breitbart to label her "a despicable human being." Breitbart might well have…

Time Magazine Urges President Obama to 'Get Mad' About ObamaCare Websi

Moments earlier, President Obama wrapped up a petulant, whiney Rose Garden harangue in which he defended ObamaCare while insisting no one was more frustrated by the botched roll-out than he was. Earlier this morning, Time magazine took it upon itself to counsel that the chief executive "has to get mad" about the failures of the ObamaCare web portal. "Political reality, unlike actual reality,…

NPR's Diane Rehm Show Stuffed With Reporters Decrying 'Obamacare Madne

You can trust National Public Radio to take the statist side in a shutdown. It happened again on The Diane Rehm Show on Monday, where “objective” reporters took turns slashing at “reality”-deprived Tea Party conservatives. Washington Post reporter Lori Montgomery said “the Obamacare push was a giant mistake.” She even announced that “Obamacare madness” can be blamed for the shutdown:
