Sam Stein, the incoming White House Editor at Politico, tweeted on Wednesday “The Biden transition team appears to have disabled the public chat function on its transition Zoom calls, a place where I and others had been routinely complaining to them to take more questions." 

Not all culture cancellations are the same. The emerging “news” that Hilaria Baldwin (wife of former screen star Alec Baldwin) has been faking her Spanish origins is the subject of much recent online mirth. Yet somehow this ignominy has earned her not condemnation, but a supportive platform in the New York Times, headlined “Hilaria Baldwin: ‘I’m Living My Life.’” Stop the presses! The…

David Bozell, the son of MRC founder and president Brent Bozell, called me the other day to bring my attention to a USA Today “fact check” that blocks a meme on the Facebook page of their group For America. It’s a humorous CNN-mocking meme of only 15 words:

USA Today is on the warpath against high schools with so-called racially insensitive nicknames. In separate stories, USA Today pressured Red Mesa High School in Arizona to drop “Redskins” and Robstown Early College High School in Texas to replace the nickname “Cotton Pickers.”

Here is this year’s roundup of the political talk show hosts’ most hateful takes about Trump, his supporters, and conservatives in general.

On New Day, CNN host Fareed Zakaria says that the "dirty little secret is that....the Trump Administration was pretty tough on the Russians. They armed Ukraine, they armed the Poles. They extended NATO operations and exercises in ways that even the Obama Administration had not done." 

In the final week of 2020, as the media have covered the disturbing case of an unarmed black man, Andre Hill, who was recently killed by a police officer in Columbus, Ohio, CNN and CBS have both presented misleading statistics on the number of African Americans who have been killed by police officers since George Floyd's death from May.

The Poynter Institute is a Florida-based journalism group that runs PolitiFact. On Poynter.org, they run a daily media report by Tom Jones, who sounds like Brian Stelter’s identically thinking twin. Their incessant party line of  liberal-media cheerleading and conservative-media loathing really came through when Jones made a list of the “best and worst news media” of 2020.

On Tuesday’s Morning Joe, MSNBC fill in hosts Jonathan Lemire and Kasie Hunt conspired with medical contributor Dr. Kavita Patel and Princeton professor Eddie Glaude Jr. to attack the Trump administration for the COVID vaccine rollout and Americans for gathering with their loved ones on Christmas. Patel complained that the vaccine rollout is not fast enough and called it “a total…

On Wednesday night’s All In on MSNBC, substitute host Mehdi Hasan associated Reaganism with “hundreds of thousands of deaths” in the pandemic, and suggested Republicans shouldn’t have the “audacity” to mock socialism, which apparently is easily mistaken for efficiency.

The New York Times is still carrying a torch for failed 2017 Democratic congressional candidate Jon Ossoff, so young, so photogenic, so liberal. He faces Republican Sen. David Perdue in a January 6 runoff for a vital seat in Georgia. On Monday, reporters Reid Epstein and Serge Kovaleski gushed on the front page over Ossoff's resume. On Thursday, Epstein, along with fellow reporter…

In the past year, Kobe Bryant died in a helipcopter crash, social justice activism ruined sports for countless fans, LSU won the national championship in college football, Dustin Johnson won the Master’s and Patrick Mahomes inked an astronomical $500 million contract after winning the Super Bowl. Each of these major stories have one thing in common: Newsweek ranked these and other…

In a ghastly report on the recently-passed legalization of abortion in Argentina, Telemundo proves once again that although immigration reigns supreme in Spanish-language media, the rest of the liberal policy agenda remains of topmost importance.

On Thursday’s Morning Edition, National Public Radio touted their Jen Psaki interview with the headline  “Biden's Incoming Press Secretary: Briefings Won't Be A Platform For Right-Wing Spin.” As usual, NPR thinks “right-wing spin” is the opposite of their reportage….which is “objective.” Not left-wing spin!
