NYT Forced to Fix Claim 900,000 Kids Have Been Hospitalized with COVID

On Thursday, October 7, The New York Times buried a correction to a pernicious report that suggested 900,000 American kids had been “hospitalized” with COVID-19 when in reality it was around 63,000.

MSNBC's Witt Frets Texas GOP Targeting Two 'Outstanding' House Dems

On Sunday afternoon, MSNBC weekend anchor Alex Witt put on the latest display of her partisanship by devoting a segment to fretting over Texas Republicans making it more difficult for two House Democrats to get reelected, drawing them both into the same district in Houston.

PBS Uses Misleading Poll to Make Abortion Seem Popular

On Thursday's PBS NewsHour, in a pre-recorded piece, correspondent Stephanie Sy included the views of three pro-abortion activists without challenging their views, but she did find a reason to press the one pro-life activist on why she supports the Texas heartbeat law which bans most abortions. The show also cited a misleading poll which questionably claims that most Americans oppose…

CNN: GOP 'Dumping Anthrax' In Our Water, Fox News Is 'Killing People!'

CNN host Brian Stelter was giggling like a schoolgirl who said hi to her crush during Sunday’s so-called “Reliable Sources” as he and his cavalcade of unhinged lefty media types declared war on “normalizing” their opponents.

CNN, MSNBC Let Same Pro-Abort Guest Trash Texas Heartbeat Law

Any long-term observer of national news shows can attest that the left-leaning networks often seem to be reading from much the same script as they report from within the same liberal bubble. But on Friday morning, CNN and MSNBC may have outdone themselves in displaying group think as both networks interviewed the same liberal pro-abortion guest almost within five minutes of one another to let…

An Increasingly Debased and Woke Culture

The late web mogul Andrew Breitbart once said that politics is upstream from culture. And boy couldn’t that be anymore true in this day and age, with movies, music, and TV shows force-feeding things like debauchery and left-wing lectures to the point that they don’t even care whether or not they alienate anybody outside the coastal elites anymore.
