This week, former Biden White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki announced she’d be coming out with a book about her career in Democratic politics entitled Say More: Lessons from Work, the White House, and the World. In a post on X, Psaki said Tuesday that the book will have “[l]ot’s of stories (Obama, Biden and yes…even Peter Doocy are in there)” as well as “lessons learned over my time…

Stuart Stevens, former Republican strategist and senior advisor to disgraced
“Republican” group the Lincoln Project, got the royal treatment on the taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour program. Stevens, promoting his new anti-Republican book The Conspiracy to End America: Five Ways My Old Party Is Driving Our Democracy to Autocracy, is the media’s favorite kind of Republican…

Remember when Sen. Rand Paul accused Dr. Anthony Fauci of funding China’s Wuhan virus lab? Fauci replied, “Sen. Paul, you do not know what you’re talking about.” The media loved it. Vanity Fair smirked, “Fauci Once Again Forced to Basically Call Rand Paul a Sniveling Moron.” But now the magazine has changed its tune, admitting, “In Major Shift, NIH Admits Funding Risky Virus Research in Wuhan…

Even on a newscast preceding that night’s GOP presidential debate, the tax-supported PBS NewsHour kept its focus on former president Donald Trump, inviting former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson on to promote her book, Enough, about her traumatic experiences in the Trump White House and how dangerous it would be for Trump to win a second term of office. You may remember…

Host Christiane Amanpour interviewed former UK Tory minister and Member of Parliament Rory Stewart on Monday’s Amanpour & Co., and they got right down to smearing Stewart’s former Conservative Party in Britain, and former Prime Minister Boris Johnson in particular, as dangerous extremist “nationalists.” Amanpour eagerly introduced Stewart, who in turn eagerly slimed his former…

Another massive best-seller for Mark Levin has just been published, but the title is the most provocative of his oeuvre: The Democrat Party Hates America. Our Democrat media elites have always aggressively ignored every Mark Levin best-seller, but this title is going to infuriate them more than any other.

On Thursday’s taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour, notoriously liberal correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez interviewed two Harvard professors about their new anti-Republican tome: "Can you first establish when you, as someone who is an expert in the collapse of democracies, diagnosed that there is now a popular authoritarian movement within the Republican Party?"

Two shows that air on tax-funded PBS, the NewsHour and Amanpour & Co., invited journalist and Amanpour regular Walter Isaacson to discuss his new biography of entrepreneur Elon Musk who now owns X (formerly Twitter). The results were less cozy than the usual journalist-to-journalist validation, with the reliably liberal Isaacson getting testy over some of the questions…

The Tuesday edition of the taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour featured liberal political writer Franklin Foer talking about his new biography of President Biden. But don’t expect Foer’s book, The Last President, to be a harsh expose like the dozens of books written about former President Trump. Foer just told NBC’s Meet the Press anchor Chuck Todd that Biden "has been…

This week, Tablet released a fascinating conversation with historian David Garrow, author of a massive unauthorized biography of former President Barack Obama in his early years titled “Rising Stars.” By all rights, the book should have been a massive hit upon its release in 2017. Instead, it underperformed. The revelations contained therein never hit the mainstream.

Wednesday’s PBS NewsHour featured a chat with radical (Pulitzer Prize winning) journalist Wesley Lowery about his new book on how white Americans and the Republican Party became scared and possibly dangerous racists after Barack Obama’s election. Lowery is making the book-tour rounds publicizing American Whitelash. Lowery, formerly a journalist for the Washington Post…
