In 2020 Obit Rewind, Paper Trashes Linda Tripp as a 'Thrashing Animal'

A special year-end edition of the New York Times Sunday Magazine featured a sour “tribute” to Linda Tripp, who became famous during the Monica Lewinsky scandal, in a special section marking notable deaths: “Linda Tripp Was Cast as a Villain During the Clinton Impeachment.” Freelancer Irina Aleksander concluded: "The more evidence Tripp mounts to clear her name, the more it is like watching a…

NYT: Biden ‘Centrist Hoping to Break...Cycle of Partisan Obstruction'

Among the many electoral gifts the New York Times has bestowed on Joe Biden is the blessing of the president-elect’s presumed ideological “moderation,” or even “centrism.” Sometimes that label, used by the press to reassure on-the-fence voters that Biden would be a safe pick, is also used to pressure Biden into caving into the new wave of younger “progressives” percolating through the party…

Soviet-Style Media Propaganda in America

Over there in The Wall Street Journal as we travel through the Christmas holiday season, was this very perceptive piece by one David Satter. Mr. Satter is identified as the “author of “Age of Delirium: the Decline and Fall of the Soviet Union” and a member of the academic advisory board of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation.”

Boris-Hating NY Times Gloats Over UK Woes, Compares Brexit to COVID

The New York Times didn’t show much Christmas spirit when it likened the sudden stringent new Christmas-season corona restrictions put in place by U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson to Brexit. The paper has always been hostile to both Brexit (the 2016 popular vote that called for the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union) and conservative party leader Boris Johnson. Reporters…

NYT's Football-Hating Sportswriter Goes After Kansas City Chiefs

Perhaps disappointed that the National Football League had the audacity to play this year, New York Times “Sports of the Times” columnist Kurt Streeter found another way to attack the league from the left – the tired old hobbyhorse of allegedly offensive American Indian nicknames. “A Growing Movement Tired of Being Your Mascots” is the latest dose of guilt-ridden consciousness-raising from a…

Thumb on the Scale: Liberal Media Ignore Ossoff’s Ties to Red China

With the Georgia Senate run-offs about two weeks away, the liberal media have continued to put their thumbs on the scale of the electorate in much the same fashion they did by hiding from voters negative stories about the Biden ticket. In Georgia, one example has been the refusal of the networks and newspapers to cover Democrat Jon Ossoff’s cozy business dealings with the Chinese Communist…

PATHETIC: NYT Defends Radical Warnock from GOP's ‘Deceptive Tactic'

Building up to the crucial pair of U.S. Senate runoff elections in Georgia, which will decide party control and the direction of the future Biden Administration, The New York Times has worked fervently to protect Democratic candidate Raphael Warnock and attack his Republican opponent, sitting Sen. Kelly Loeffler.  Reporter Rick Rojas took his shot defending Warnock’s far-left flank in “Georgia…

NYT's Lefty Lead: ‘Setback For Recovery’ If Dem Cities Not Bailed Out

Friday’s lead New York Times story on the debate over the coronavirus stimulus package was told wholly from the liberal Democratic perspective, while pitying president-elect Joe Biden: “Hurdle For Biden As Stimulus Bill Drops State Aid – Setback For Recovery – Congress Rushes for Deal on Virus Relief After Months of Feuds.” There is no surprise which side the paper’s lead story takes, it’s…

Google Now Facing Third Antitrust Lawsuit

The last few days have not exactly been full of joy and Christmas cheer for Google. 

One coalition of 38 states and territories and a separate coalition of 10 states have piled on in filing antitrust lawsuits against Google. The Department of Justice brought a third in an October lawsuit against the search and advertising giant. 

FAKE NEWS: NYT Calls Pete Buttigieg First Openly Gay Cabinet Member

On Thursday, New York Times reporters Michael Shear and Thomas Kaplan disregarded their basic journalistic commitment to the facts, trumpeting former Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg as the “first openly gay cabinet member” on Thursday in “Biden Adds Buttigieg to His ‘Cabinet of Barrier-Breakers.’” The Times is going to great lengths to pretend this barrier wasn’t broken…

Revenge of the Lapdogs

For four years, we heard that President Donald Trump is a threat to freedom of the press. The Washington Post signaled its own faux bravery by adopting the slogan "Democracy Dies in Darkness" at the top of its masthead. CNN began running commercials about facts being facts, and apples being apples rather than bananas (unless, presumably, those apples identify as bananas). The New York Times…

Achievement? NYT Review Of Sports In 2020 Focuses On Social Justice

Culture

This year in American sports was more of a movement than a time of athletic achievement. It was also about staying safe from COVID-19, speaking out for Black Lives Matter, racial justice and political activism, and opposing systemic racism and voter suppression. The New York Times’ review of the year gives deference to off-the-court/field issues over championships won. 

NYT: Facebook Reverses ‘Secret’ Algorithm to Suppress ‘Misinformation’

It’s a Christmas miracle. In a stunning turn of events, Facebook has actually lifted one of its methods of censorship that it used during and after the election. Now that the left is sure it won. The social media platform is reportedly no longer manipulating its algorithm to prioritize “mainstream news publishers.'"

Media Falsely Hail Pete Buttigieg First Out Cabinet Member

Culture

President-elect Joe Biden’s cabinet is heating up along with the MSM’s attempts to carry water for him all the way. Their latest efforts are an all-new low as they literally rewrite history to benefit the Biden administration. In this case, it’s mislabeling Pete Buttigieg as a milestone cabinet secretary.
