‘The Chi’ Mayor: ‘I'm Gonna Change Our City Forever, Defund Police'

Last season of The Chi featured no cops, on purpose. The main storyline was to find and save a young black woman who has disappeared, because the residents could take care of that all on their own, the Chicago PD be damned. In this fourth season, though, the Chicago PD has played a major part in both episodes so far. May 30’s episode of “Cooley High” takes place right where the events…

NY Times Memorial Day: Social Gatherings Unpatriotic (Except Protests)

The Memorial Day edition of the New York Times editorial page led with an obnoxious, elitist essay by Margaret Renkl, a contributing opinion writer based in Nashville. Her attempt at a Memorial Day tribute was rendered worthless by an extraneous condemnation of her fellow Americans for not doing enough to stop the coronavirus, hidden under the benign title “A New Vision of National…

Barbra Streisand: GOP Wants An 'Authoritarian State'

There’s been no shortage of celebrities giving their obnoxious, hateful, and ignorant opinions lately, so now it’s Barbra Streisand’s turn to get in on the action. In this case, it’s yet another awful take on the voting laws.

'Competence Is at the Helm': MSNBC Regular's Laugh Line of the Day

In a line that was one where you had to rewind the show a few times to make sure it was real, MSNBC regular and Princeton professor Eddie Glaude Jr. appeared on Monday's Morning Joe and, in trying to explain Americans' relatively positive mood nowadays, got off this laugh line: "We cannot underestimate the importance of competence...Competence is actually at the helm."

Preposterous! NY Times Opinion Editor Denies They're Progressive

In a surprisingly rigorous (but not hostile) interview on Friday's Amanpour & Co. on PBS (and CNN), New York Times opinion editor Kathleen Kingsbury bizarrely claimed it's unfair to categorize them as a "progressive organization." As if you can't read them and figure it out?

Drive Out ‘Demons’ From GOP’s ‘Hate Machine’ Before It Ends Democracy

Wonder why so many lefty journalists have an outsized hero-complex? It’s because they believe they are all that stands in the way of the GOP’s “big, ugly hate machine” full of “demons” that are a worse “threat to democracy” than Osama bin Laden ever was. All those insane assertions and more were made by crazed cable hosts and pundits in the last month. The following are the most insane…

WashPost 'Fact Check' Headline LIES on Biden's Coal-Miner Ancestor LIE

Fact-checkers came running to President Biden's defense again. In Sunday's Washington Post, "Fact Checker" Glenn Kessler had an article headlined "Biden's claim that his 'great grand-pop' was a coal miner mostly pans out." But if you read the actual article...it doesn't pan out.

NYT Suddenly Laments Cancel Culture... When Journalists, Dems Targeted

The New York Times has a gross double standard on “cancel culture,” or what it called “digital shaming,” as evidenced in a Sunday Business section story by tech reporter Kashmir Hill, “Our Digital Pasts Weren’t Supposed to Be Weaponized – A recent firing is the latest example of how we can’t outrun our old posts.” But the concern seems conveniently timed, considering that Hill managed…

Fox News Calls Out the Lib Media’s Double Standard on Anti-Semitism

As NewsBusters had documented in recent weeks, the liberal media were refusing to cover the rash of anti-Semitic attacks as Palestinian extremists were hunting Jews on American streets in liberal cities. Well, during Sunday’s edition of MediaBuzz on Fox News Channel, the media show called out the liberal media for the double standard in their outrage at anti-Semitism, such as ignoring…
