NY Times Rips Nick Shirley and His Copycats for Posting 'Slopulism'

The New York Times is forever looking down its snobby nose at uncredentialed conservative journalists exposing inconvenient stories they don’t want to touch, like the Somali fraud ring in Minnesota. That's not investigative journalism! It's "mindless," it's "slopulism."

CNN Obsessed With Eking Out A Win on Dumb Trump Economy Scare Porn

CNN Business’s so-called “senior writer” Alicia (not Nicolle) Wallace can’t seem to get the hint that her ongoing narrative war against the Trump economy is flopping harder than Joe Biden’s mental acuity.

The View Wants You to Stop Criticizing Olympians Who Criticize America

During their Presidents Day episode on Monday, ABC’s The View made it clear that they believed only some criticisms were worth the breathe used to make them. The cast didn’t really like that some Americans dared to criticize those Olympic athletes who used their opportunity on the world stage to criticize the country they were there to represent. They also suggested that when…

NY Times Front Page Condemns Trump’s ‘Cult of Personality': Obama Who?

A 3,000-word “news analysis” by New York Times chief White House correspondent Peter Baker on Trump’s supposed cult of personality was headlined cheekily: “A Superman, Jedi and Pope -- Trump’s Relentless Bid to Mythologize Himself.” The online version was more insulting: “Trump’s Relentless Self-Promotion Fosters an American Cult of Personality-- President Trump has engaged in a spree…

CNN Frets Fetterman ‘Off Message’ for Rejecting Schumer’s Jim Crow 2.0

Discussing Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s claim that the SAVE Act is “Jim Crow 2.0,” CNN senior reporter Zach Wolf wasn’t troubled by the incendiary historical comparison. Instead, he fretted that Democratic Senator John Fetterman had gone “off message” by refusing to echo it.

Oliver Darcy’s Website Goes Full Regina George on NewsNation, Pavlich

Writing Sunday night for Oliver Darcy’s website Status (which hurled a series of smears Friday at the Media Research Center and conservative media writ large), Natalie Korach shoveled a series of anonymous jabs and loaded declarations to assert NewsNation is MAGA TV simply to please Donald Trump and FCC Chairman Brendan Carr.

The 'Fact Checkers' Let Barack Obama Smear the GOP As Much As He Wants

Quiz: How many times has Barack Obama been "fact checked" by PolitiFact since he left office in 2017? Seven. Trump has 11 so far in 2026. So you can guess they won't be "fact checking" his latest interview, where he smears the Republicans as uncaring about the rule or law, or democracy, or the truth.

CBS's O'Donnell Lets Gov. Wes Moore Avoid Answering Resume Questions

Last Sunday CBS's Things That Matter welcomed Maryland Governor and possible Presidential candidate, Democrat Wes Moore to their Town Hall. Aside from expecting, and hearing the usual questions tossed at a Democrat, there was a waiting game involved as well.

Vanity Fair: 'Epstein's Ghost' Is 'Calling All the Shots' for Trump

Former ABC reporter Tara Palmeri's Halloween-in-February hot take in Vanity Fair, "Epstein’s Ghost Is Calling All the Shots in Trump’s White House," certainly falls within the realm of fantasy. "Epstein has effectively risen from the dead to dominate Trump’s presidency and threaten his legacy."

OMISSION: Sunday Shows Aren’t Talking About D.C. Poop Spill

As you may know by now, there is an ongoing environmental disaster that threatens to, well, soil our nation’s 250th birthday celebration in the Washington, D.C. metro area and beyond. A burst pipe has dumped millions of gallons of raw sewage into the Potomac River, which poses a major problem once springtime comes to the nation’s Capital.

After Melting Down over Vance, Sunday Shows OMIT Rubio's Munich Speech

Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered an address before the Munich Security Conference that was warmly received and met with rapturous applause. And if you were waiting for the Elitist Media’s Sunday shows’ analyses, you might think the speech never happened at all.

CBS Weirdly Injects Climate Propaganda into the Nation’s Founding

The Media Hall Monitors repeatedly tell us that CBS’s New editorial direction is Trump-adjacent and “MAGA-friendly.” This is, of course, a shameless exaggeration most recently belied by a weird Sunday Morning report that injected climate change into the 250th anniversary of the nation’s founding.

Al Sharpton Gives Free Rein To Swalwell On 'Bodies Piling Up' by ICE

Tune into the left wing media on almost any given day and chances are that you'll get to see the bashing of ICE and their agents, whether from the mouth of the show's Host themselves, or from guests, who are often encouraged by the Host to go full steam ahead, usually by failing to challenge any accusation made vs ICE. That was the case on Saturday's edition of Politics Nation on MS…
