CBS Hammers Sinclair for Partisanship; Host Gayle King Is a Dem Donor

On CNN, Larry Summers Rips Trump's 'Mussolini' 'Jihad' on Amazon
During an appearance on CNN’s New Day Thursday, former United States Treasury Secretary Larry Summers weighed in on President Trump’s recent tweets attacking Amazon and Jeff Bezos.

Myers's Dr. Evil Tells Fallon He Wasn't Evil Enough for White House
Dr. Evil of Austin Powers fame made a guest appearance on Wednesday’s episode of “The Tonight Show” with Jimmy Fallon. The villain came on the show to talk about his recent firing from the Trump administration, because even his over-the-top vision of world domination apparently was not evil or wicked enough to last in President Trump’s terrifying regime. Late night comedy is so creative, isn’t it…

WashPost Remembers ‘Chappaquiddick’ as ‘a Camelot Made of Sand’

'I Can't Breathe:' Police Brutality Flies in Superman Prequel
Syfy’s new series Krypton tells the story of Superman’s grandfather Seg-El (Cameron Cuffe) on his home planet of Krypton. It takes place approximately 200 years before that planet's destruction and follows their alien culture. That being said, the show apparently still has the time to shoe-horn a police brutality scene for us present-day Earthlings, as if any of us were begging for it.
CNN Deeply Concerned by ‘Trump Playing to His Base On Multiple Fronts’
In recent days and weeks, President Trump has made broad and swift moves on policies ranging from immigration to tariffs to looking to pull out of Syria. All of these policy actions are popular with the President’s base, a.k.a blue collar working Americans. But during Wednesday night’s edition of Anderson Cooper 360, CNN ran a ridiculous report about what Trump was doing and who he was doing it…
‘Hardball’ Panel Game Plans Trump’s Impeachment, Logan Act Violations
To put it simply, cable news thrives off of speculation and little discussion of the actual news. The Tuesday edition of MSNBC’s Hardball opened with a segment perfectly encapsulating this reality with the panel gaming out how a Trump impeachment could go down, what charges he’d face, and whether he’ll be found to have violated the Logan Act in the Russia probe.
Time Coos Over Stormy Daniels, 'Fiercely Funny' Resistance Heroine
The April 9 issue of Time magazine carried large print at the start of its section "The View." The headline on the article was "Stormy Daniels: underestimated warrior." Susanna Schrobsdorff gushed in fingernail-sized type: "As numb as we have become to the shock and ugh of the Trump presidency, here’s one thing we didn’t foresee: Stormy Daniels, porn star, director, entrepreneur and fiercely…
Roland Martin Demands White Panelist Not Invoke MLK; She Pushes Back
On Sunday's MSNBC Live with Alex Witt, after panelist Jennifer Grossman invoked Martin Luther King's historic "content of their character" statement, TV One's Roland Martin, in a demanding tone, requested a "favor": "Please don’t quote Dr. King." Apparently in Martin's world, only a black person like him can quote King, while a white person like Grossman can't. To her credit, Grossman pushed back…
CBS, NBC Decry Trump Pulling U.S. Out of Syria, Declare It ‘Retreat’
In a recent public statement at the White House this week, President Trump expressed his desire to pull U.S. troops out of war-torn Syria and bring them home. Of course, the hypocritical liberal media became enraged and threw up their arms in protest. During their Wednesday evening broadcasts, CBS and NBC were sure to voice their contempt for the idea by arguing there was so more to be done. CBS…
CNN Perpetuates Myth of Kennedy Heroism in Cuban Missile Crisis
Back on March 11, CNN began airing a six-part weekly "docuseries" on the Kennedys, America's "First Family," aimed at "uncovering how and why this one family so significantly impacted 20th century America." And less than a month after the series began, Hollywood will release its first cinematic treatment on the death of Kennedy campaign worker Mary Jo Kopechne at Chappaquiddick, a scandal that…
