Orban Loses, Joe Scarborough Sneers at ‘Crayon Book’ Conservatives

On Monday’s Morning Joe, MS NOW’s Joe Scarborough used Hungary’s election results as an occasion to reprise a familiar habit: denigrating conservatives as ignorant and unserious. Co-host Jonathan Lemire followed with a sweeping—and demonstrably false—claim that the US never backs candidates in foreign elections.

Welker Avoids Asking Tough Questions of Cuba’s Puppet 'President'

We viewed NBC’s hyped announcement of a Kristen Welker interview with Cuban dictatorship puppet Miguel Díaz Canel with dread expecting very little in the way of tough questions, a lot of uninterrupted regime propaganda, and a nonzero percentage of obsequiousness. We regret to inform you that we were not wrong.

NO SHELTER: Sunday Shows Turn on Swalwell After New Rape Allegations

The Elitist Media’s Sunday shows wasted no time in giving airtime to the recent lurid allegations that have surfaced against Congressman and California Gubernatorial candidate Eric Swalwell (D-Fang Fang). But their coverage itself seeks to avoid some of the broader substance of the issues.

The New York Times Champions Feminist Novel 'To Topple the Patriarchy'

It didn’t take long for the tweeters to notice this New York Times book-review headline and insist it was the Real Deal, even if it seems like too bizarre for the Babylon Bee: "To Topple the Patriarchy, These Women Have Sex With Vegetables." This novel by a Polish author underlines that Europeans can be deeply weird people.

Contemptuous NYT Take on 'Climate Denial' Talks Reveals Own Blindness

Smug and lazy journalism was on display in Friday’s New York Times, in “climate policy” reporter Maxine Joselow’s contemptuous account of the Heartland Institute’s International Climate Change Conference, held in Washington, D.C. Joselow used loaded and dismissive language to characterize the attendees, many of who were scientists, who dared to believe the world wasn’t in a climate…
