Don Lemon: Can't Have Unity with GOP Opposed to 'Science' and 'Facts'

Is there anything funnier than the idea of CNN suggesting it might be time now to come together as Americans? On Friday’s CNN Tonight, host Don Lemon chatted up CNN weekend host Fareed Zakaria to bash Republicans for daring to disagree with CNN. Lemon attacked Trump voters and Republicans as “people who don’t believe in science,” “facts,” and “reality.”

Amazon Prime Series ‘Exposes Police Brutality’ of ‘Past and Present'

Once again, we’re back to discussing everyone’s least favorite TV topic: racial justice. This time, Amazon Prime offers its take on the subject through Steve McQueen's (12 Years a Slave) anthology series Small Axe.

MSNBC Defends Wright's 'God Damn America!'—Critics Miss the 'Nuance'

When it comes to attempting to explain away the unexplainable, nothing's more hackneyed than claiming the offensive statement was "taken out of context." To be sure, Jason Johnson trotted out that excuse while guest-hosting MSNBC's AM Joy Sunday morning. But give Eddie Glaude credit. The frequent MSNBC guest came up with a somewhat more original excuse. Critics of Wright's damnation…

2020: A Catastrophic Failure For Spanish-Language Media

To hear it from the nation’s Spanish-language media, 2020 was supposed to be the year that Latinos, having displaced African-Americans as the nation’s largest ethnic minority, asserted their power and at long last brought change to the country.
