The Shame Is Ours
It is a gift, as Robert Burns wrote, to see ourselves as others see us. One of those “others” is Caroline Glick, who writes on her webpage from Israel: “Americans are now expected to kneel for the Star Spangled Banner and disavow American history while swallowing whole a false, malicious new history that claims America has been a force for evil at home and worldwide since it was nothing more…
NY Times's Radical New Advice Columnist Smears Vet Cotton as 'Fascist'
Liberal feminist Roxane Gay has a new gig at the New York Times as the paper’s “Work Friend” work-advice columnist, and she used a fascinating query to launch her latest column, “Taking a Stand Against an Employer.” Twist: That "employer" happens to be the New York Times itself. An (anonymous) employee of the paper was appalled by the paper’s publication of an op-ed by…
Jon Stewart: Interviewing O'Reilly 'Worst Legacy' of His 'Daily Show'
Jon Stewart has directed a new movie coming out soon, so he granted an interview to David Marchese of The New York Times Magazine, who bowed to this valuable and "eloquent" voice, eager to receive his nuggets of wisdom. Steward said the "worst legacy" of his tenure at The Daily Show was interviewing right-wingers like Bill O'Reilly, when his leftist fans expected an "…
NY Times’ Douthat Eviscerates Own Paper Over Cotton Meltdown
The New York Times right-leaning columnist Ross Douthat used his perch for a long piece about the paper’s recent ideological meltdown over an op-ed from a Republican senator: “The Tom Cotton Op-Ed and the Cultural Revolution -- How liberalism, and the liberal media, are changing before our eyes.” He kills the Times with kindness.
The Cultural Revolution in American Journalism
Over there at the History Channel is this short history of China’s “Cultural revolution” back there in 1966. It was, but of course, the brainchild of China’s Communist founder and leader Mao Zedong. Here is a bit of the description, with bold print for emphasis supplied: "“The Cultural Revolution was launched in China in 1966 by Communist leader Mao Zedong in order to reassert his authority…
New York Times Front-Page Sugar Puff on Biden's Tender Loving Eulogies
The New York Times somehow thinks it's front-page investigative reporting to do a deep dive....into Biden's self-selected pile of eulogies so they can tout him as the anti-Trump, an "Emissary of Grief" who demonstrates the "capacity to heal."
Huh? NYT Hails Seattle Protest as 'Homeland for Racial Justice'
The "Homeland for Racial Justice." Sound like a neutral journalistic description? It's not, but that's how The New York Times described an area in Seattle taken over by protesters. Instead of battling for control of the entire city, law enforcement officials allowed demonstrators to establish a “police-free” autonomous zone, a move praised by a reporter for the …
Hypocritical: China-Apologist LeBron James Forming Voting Rights Group
Known liberal multimillionaire NBA star LeBron James appears to want in on the SJW action. James is joining a group of other prominent “black athletes and entertainers” to start “a new group aimed at protecting African-Americans’ voting rights,” The New York Times reported June 10. James, along with others, are reportedly “seizing on the widespread fury against racial injustice that…
Huh? NYT Hits Trump’s ‘False Claim’ Dems ‘Bent on Defunding Police'
The New York Times led Wednesday’s front page with an obvious attempt to portray the Republican Party as racist and “flat-footed” in the wake of mass protests against police across the nation: “G.O.P., Blindsided By Public’s Rage, Is Pressed To Act – Police Under Scrutiny – The Law and Order Party Loses Its Footing as Attitudes Shift.” The paper also insisted against actual…
NBC Rips NYT on Facebook Ad Business: ‘Story Doesn’t Really Check Out’
The New York Times continues to embarrass itself. This time, the paper claimed advertisers were pulling their Facebook ad spending because CEO Mark Zuckerberg balked at censoring President Donald Trump. But that story reportedly didn’t check out.
NY Times: Crime Shows ‘Privilege Cops’ Ambiguities, Pathologies’
Things can’t be too bad out there, because the invaluable Titania McGrath is writing for the New York Times. At least, I think she is. If not, there’s a critic there named Anne Hess who’s doing a creditable imitation of Titania’s hilarious imitation of an excruciatingly woke, angry, self-regarding social justice drone.
NYT's Petulant Krugman:‘Good Jobs Report May Be Bad for Future Policy'
In a rare, perhaps unprecedented placement, respected economist turned Republican-loathing hack columnist Paul Krugman garnered the lead editorial slot in Tuesday’s print edition for “Will the Jobs Report Destroy Jobs?” It read as a desperate attempt to quash economic optimism in the wake of a shockingly positive jobs report. Krugman had the gall to say: "....let me address one widespread…
Excited NY Times: 'Could This Be the Year Georgia Flips Blue?'
The New York Times could barely hide its excitement in the full-page lead slot of Tuesday’s National section: “Could This Be the Year Georgia Flips Blue?” (Don’t bother waiting for the Times headline, “Could This Be the Year Minnesota Flips Red?”) Reporter Astead Herndon began with a quip about Atlanta’s luckless sports teams, then pivoted to another group of beloved…
Liberal Hacks: Yamiche Alcindor, CNN, Pelosi Photo Win WH Press Awards
Try not to laugh or feel the urge to destroy your electronic devices after reading these quotes. On Tuesday, the White House Correspondents Association (WHCA) announced their 2020 award winners, which included the insanely partisan Yamiche Alcindor of taxpayer-funded PBS, the liberal hacks at CNN, and The New York Times. In a statement, WHCA president and ABC chief White House…
