CNN Too Obsessed With Trump/McCain Story to Shill for Gun Control
Shows on CNN's afternoon and evening lineup were too busy kicking up dirt over President Trump’s delayed acknowledgment of the late Senator McCain’s legacy to bother discussing the latest mass-shooting.

Sports Media Pound on Martinez, 'Racists' for Gun Support
When sports media stray from sports, what do they like to report on? Guns were a huge topic on Monday, the day after David Katz is alleged to have shot and killed three people and wounded 11 at a Madden 19 video football tournament in Jacksonville.

MSNBC Freaks Out That 'Deluded' Trump Supporters Refuse to Abandon Him
On Monday's MTP Daily on MSNBC, during a discussion of the fact that President Donald Trump's approval rating has stayed the same in spite of recent bad news, fill-in host Katy Tur was exasperated as she was clearly cheering for his approval rating to fall, and wondered if there was any reason to be "optimistic" that it would. Longtime MSNBC contributor Jonathan Alter described people as "deluded…
ABC, CBS: In '08, ‘Strange’ McCain Dealt With GOP ‘Fringe’
As the Media Research Center’s Geoff Dickens explained on Monday, journalists loved the late John McCain, except when he got in their way.

MSNBC Finds McCain’s ‘Biggest Political Mistake’: Palin

Vox Drops Hot Take After McCain’s Death Trashing Palin, Gets Destroyed

NYT Can't Stay Classy in Editorial on McCain: 'Debased' 2008 Campaign
The New York Times lead editorial Monday was dedicated to Arizona Republican Senator John McCain, who passed away on Saturday: “A Scarred but Happy Warrior.” But the liberal editorial page just couldn’t stay classy for the entire 12 paragraph tribute, lapsing into accusations that McCain’s obituary Robert McFadden mostly managed to avoid: "He had principles, and he had flaws, from time to time…
