CNN Gushes Over WashPost 'Fact Checker' Finding '10,000 Lies' by Trump

Washington Post "Fact Checker" Glenn Kessler did three CNN interviews and an MSNBC interview celebrating his latest finding that President Trump has reached the perpetually perfidious plateau of 10,000 "false or misleading claims."

NY Times Climate Reporter Admits It ‘Categorically’ Excludes ‘Deniers'

It’s clear The New York Times has its mind made up about climate change and the debate is over — at least in their newsroom.

MSNBC’s Ruhle Cries: Don’t Let ‘Far Right’ Call Dems Socialist

On her MSNBC show Tuesday morning, anchor Stephanie Ruhle was upset by news that some normally liberal-leaning Wall Street executives were distancing themselves from the field of 2020 Democratic candidates, fearing their far-left, socialist views.

Tony-Nominated Play on Constitution: ‘White Men’s’ Tool of ‘Violence’

Americans don’t learn much about the American founding in school anymore, so other institutions have stepped into the gap, including progressive Broadway. So we get rapping Hamilton, and now a play whose point is to convince us that the Constitution is a largely obsolete document in our brave new world, leading to societal problems, particularly in putting “women’s bodies on the line.”

While the topics of gun control and cracking down on “hate speech” came up throughout the course of the conversation, no one took it further than co-host Joy Behar, who told President Trump that he was “the culprit” of the attack.

Does Twitter Track Journalists and Their Political Affiliations?

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey’s many interviews in the past few months left the media wondering: where does he get his information? In an interview with podcaster Sam Harris, Dorsey dropped that he knew that journalists who leaned left were less likely to follow right-leaning journalists than right-leaning journalists were to follow left-leaning journalists.

Two Out of Three Evening Shows Omit GDP ‘Whopper’
