New Yorker Melts Down Over 'Racist' Joker, Accuses of Twisting History
The scuzzy new “supervillain” movie "Joker” has caused a strange moral panic among the left, who are equating the empathetic portrayal of the Joker to sympathy for the circumstance of “incels” – troubled men rejected by potential sexual partners.

GOP Senator RIPS Into Chuck Todd's 'Very Biased' Open, Fight Ensues
Why would Republican appear on the "mainstream" Sunday shows? You could wonder after Sen. Ron Johnson was disgusted by moderator Chuck Todd's "very biased opening" segment on Meet the Press, and Todd openly fought with him and wouldn't let him finish a point as Johnson tried to tell Todd what he should ask John Brennan later in the show.

WaPo's Dionne: MSM Too Fair to Trump, Must Reject Air for Trump's Side

Washington Post, Cards Pitcher Take Exception To Braves' Chop
The Washington Post on Saturday continued its seemingly never-ending campaign against Indian imagery with a story on a St. Louis Cardinals pitcher who called the Atlanta fans' tomahawk chop "disrespectful."

CNN Media Guys Love DeNiro's 'Passion,' Pity Voight's 'Indoctrination'
CNN Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter weakly protested actor Robert DeNiro dropping F-bombs on his set last Sunday, but Stelter knew exactly what he was getting when he booked him -- ratings bait for his Trump-hating base.

The Times and Post Push Spygate Cover-Up With Barr Attacks
Once upon a time — in a galaxy far, far away — The New York Times and The Washington Post were the go-to papers when it came to uncovering political scandals. Both papers made a point of running the Pentagon Papers, an internal and secret U.S. government history of various presidents and their relevant Cabinet secretaries decision-making on American involvement in the Vietnam War. The Post, of…

NBC IGNORES Record Low Employment Rate, New Jobs Report
The jobs report that came out Friday showed that the unemployment rate dropped to 3.5 percent; the lowest in half a century.

Saturday Night Live, Cancel Culture, and an Assassination Joke
Cancel Culture types pack an emotional point when they call people out for telling the “wrong” jokes. Marginalized groups shouldn’t be the butt of gags. They’re already at a disadvantage in our culture, and being mocked can only make matters worse. Children like eco-activist Greta Thunberg and Parkland High School students deserve a measure of protection.
