PornHub Changes Rules After Scathing NYT Report, Investigation Threat

December 9th, 2020 4:38 PM

In a huge win for victims of sexual exploitation and their families, Pornhub has changed several of its rules. All it took was a scathing New York Times report and the threat of a federal investigation.

NYT's Fact-Free Flaying of Justice Barrett’s ‘Grievance Conservatism'

December 8th, 2020 7:05 AM

The New York Times’ former Supreme Court-beat reporter Linda Greenhouse is still writing for the paper, and any residual sense of objectivity has been jettisoned, as shown by last week’s screed on the newest member of the court: “Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s Choice -- Will she join the Supreme Court’s grievance conservatives?” Ostensibly, Greenhouse was writing about the recently…

Hypocritical NYT Mocks 'GOP's Delicate Dance of Absurdity' on Biden

December 5th, 2020 7:45 PM

New York Times political profile writer Mark Leibovich brought his trademark snark to Friday’s “Washington Memo,” trolling Republican senators supposedly refusing to acknowledge Joe Biden as the next president of the United States: “President-Elect Who?

Univision senior anchor Jorge Ramos has, yet again, found occasion to milk his performative ejection from then-candidate Donald Trump’s 2015 Iowa press conference.

NY Times Still Deeply Confused Over 'Deep State,' Smears Wash Times

December 4th, 2020 5:14 PM

Is the “Deep State” phony, or for real? The New York Times still can’t make up its mind about the concept of an entrenched anti-Trump bureaucracy fighting the Trump administration from within. The Times typically mocks the very idea as a conspiracy theory -- but sometimes it actually praises its existence, in the name of…fighting the Trump administration from within!

Cabinet Contrast: Biden’s ‘Superheroes’ vs. Trump’s ‘Ignoramuses’

December 3rd, 2020 9:00 AM

The transition has only just begun, but already the liberal media are fawning over Joe Biden’s “historic” choices to staff his administration, as he selects “very experienced,” “very diverse” and “not political” “adults in the room” who actually “know what they are doing.” The contrast with the media’s reaction to President-elect Trump’s selections four years ago could not be more stark.

NY Times Book Review Leads With Long Saga on Obama’s ‘Legacy of Hope'

November 30th, 2020 10:49 PM

The New York Times Sunday Book Review led off with a lengthy, almost reverent take on Barack Obama’s latest autobiography A Promised Land: “Legacy of Hope,” a review by Nigerian-born novelist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.

Monday’s New York Times sports section brought another dose of leftist consciousness-raising from Kurt Streeter, the “Sports of the Times” columnist who would much rather talk about politics: “Signs of Fragile Progress Along Streets Warily Taken.” Streeter talked about his jogging routine in his Seattle neighborhood, where he fears assault by racist Trumpers: "My antenna rises when I see a…
