CNN Casts Trump-Harvard Showdown As About Free Expression—It's Not

On CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish casts the showdown between the Trump administration and Harvard and other universities over federal funding as being about free expression. It's not. Universities can teach whatever they want. But they can't have it both ways. If Harvard wants to have complete freedom of operation, it should make like Hillsdale College and reject any federal or state…

NYT Gets Its Undies In a Twist Over ‘Christian’ Company Opening In NYC

The New York Times is grating its teeth over the prospect that a Christian-owned company is setting up shop in “liberal” Manhattan, as if having a business with religious morals would be a net negative for that God-forsaken city.

Networks Bemoan Trump’s ‘Dramatic Turn’ Targeting Far-Left Harvard

When the “Big Three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC weren’t lamenting Tuesday morning the plight of their beloved “Maryland man” Kilmar Abrego Garcia, they each complaining about the Trump administration freezing $2 billion in taxpayer funding from far-left and private Harvard University, siding with the university’s insistence it spend taxpayer dollars as it sees fit.

‘You Are the Purveyors of Hate’: Lemon Blames GOP for PA Arson Attack

Over the weekend, Pennsylvania Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro was the target of a possible politically motived arson attack at the Governor’s mansion by a man with a history of mental illness and animosity towards both parties.

Maddow Ignores Anti-Semitism, Says Trump's Waging War On Universities

Liberals may view MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow as something of an intellectual, but her Monday show disproved that notion. If all you did was listen to Maddow, you would come to the conclusion that Trump is waging war on universities simply because he can and not because they have an anti-Semitism problem.

FACT CHECK: Does CNN ‘Hate’ Our Country?

On Monday, during a testy Oval Office exchange with liberal CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins, President Trump alleged her network hates the United States of America: “They don’t like putting out good numbers… I think they hate our country, actually.” Moments later, Inside Politics host Dana Bash took umbrage with the President’s claim: “For the record, since we heard President Trump say in…

Stelter: Trump Wants To Defund NPR, PBS For 'Simply Covering The News'

For the Tax Day edition of CNN’s Inside Politics on Tuesday, media correspondent Brian Stelter joined host Dana Bash to allege that President Trump wants to defund PBS and NPR for “simply covering the news.” If Stelter really believes that then he has a funny definition of what is newsworthy.

STUDY: ABC, CBS, NBC Give 62x More Time to Negative Economic News

Over the past two weeks, broadcast networks were utterly consumed by news of the Trump administration’s tariffs, to the degree that the topic took up more than a third of their flagship morning and evening newscasts’ total run time. Yet during that same time period, these networks spared barely any time at all to cover some of the positive economic news, such as the declining Consumer Price…

Stewart Tries To Suggest Defunding NPR and PBS Is Authoritarian

Jon Stewart devoted his Monday monologue on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show to accusing President Trump of being an authoritarian. However, some of Stewart’s examples of authoritarianism, such as protecting women’s sports and defunding public broadcasting, were woefully unimpressive. Additionally, Stewart alleged Trump had bungled “the authoritarian bargain” that requires competence…

PBS's David Brooks Condemns GOP: 'Adultery, Abuse, Cruelty, Grift'

In The Atlantic magazine, David Brooks penned a harsh 4,500-word epithet of an essay, “Everything We Once Believed In.” The online headline: “I Should Have Seen This Coming -- When I joined the conservative movement in the 1980s, there were two types of people: those who cared earnestly about ideas, and those who wanted only to shock the left. The reactionary fringe has won.”

OMISSION: Nets Ignore 'Maryland Mom' Verdict, Plead for 'Maryland Dad'

The network evening newscasts have completely turned themselves over to immigration advocacy, shifting over to a lane often occupied almost exclusively by known immigration advocates Univision and Telemundo. There is no other rational way to explain the blackout, across the legacy dial, of the guilty verdict in the trial of the illegal immigrant charged with killing Maryland mom Rachel Morin…

THUNDERDOME: Jennings CLOCKS The Panel Over Deported ‘Maryland Man’

The deportation of illegal alien and alleged MS-13 gangbanger Kilmar Abrego García continues to trigger the Acela Media to the point of derangement. Case in point: the panel at CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip (A.K.A. the “Thunderdome”), who appear terminally opposed to the idea that the United States should enforce her own borders.
