May 10th, 2020 6:23 PM
Nicholas Kristof linked his love for big-spending European nations to the coronavirus pandemic in a full-page column for Sunday’s New York Times, “McDonald’s Workers in Denmark Pity Us.” He got in tasteless cracks: "More than 35,000 Americans have already died in part because the United States could not manage the pandemic as deftly as Denmark." Then he suggested: "How horrifying would it be if…
The Media's Long History of Covering for Joe Biden
May 9th, 2020 4:00 PM
In a nearby flashback, this September, 2019 post from NB colleagues Rich Noyes and Scott Whitlock recalled the 1987 flame-out of then Delaware Senator Joe Biden’s 1988 presidential campaign over the issue of plagiarized speeches.

May 9th, 2020 3:14 PM
On the front of Wednesday’s New York Times was an article with the usual anti-White House theme. The headline was “FEMA Supply Effort Tangled by Kushner Team.” There were five names in the byline, and another three credited at the end. But still, the main character in this article wasn’t thrilled. Dr. Jeffrey Hendricks shared his frustrations with the Team Trump volunteers trying to procure…

May 9th, 2020 2:26 PM
New York Times environmental activist reporter Lisa Friedman, whose paper has taken advantage of the coronavirus pandemic to push liberal causes, now regrets the Republican Party has “seized” on (wholly justified) fears about Democratic environmental policy: “G.O.P.

NYTimes Headline Hijinks Hide Abortion Danger for Dems:'Deal Breaker'?
May 8th, 2020 6:58 PM
Reporter Maggie Astor profiled several young conservatives for her full-page lead National story in Thursday’s New York Times: “For Young Republicans, Abortion Fight Remains a Deal Breaker.” The framing of that headline is so strange.

NY Times Op-Ed: 'I Believe Tara Reade. I’m Voting for Biden Anyway'
May 6th, 2020 10:39 PM
The New York Times is publishing some incredible commentary this week supporting Joe Biden with absolutely zero consideration of whether he sexually assaulted staff member Tara Reade on Capitol Hill in 1993. First, longtime Times reporter Martin Tolchin argued "I want a coronation" of Biden -- not "justice," just "a win." Then on Wednesday morning came this article by feminist Linda Hirshman: "I…

NYT Devotes Full Page of Fawning to AOC, Who Alone Understands Crisis
May 5th, 2020 7:11 PM
Tuesday’s New York Times used the coronavirus pandemic to push both the leftist fight against “inequality” and left-wing politician Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She was fawned over in the lead National story slot, a full-page profile: “Lonely Voice in Congress Amplifies Plight of a Stricken District.” And from the “don’t let a crisis go to waste” department, Tim Arango and Thomas Fuller rooted…
NYT No Longer Believes All Women: 'Doesn't Mean Every Woman Is Right'
May 5th, 2020 11:56 AM
The New York Times is belatedly waking up to Tara Reade’s accusation of sexual assault against likely Democratic nominee Joe Biden. Yet the paper is still flattering the Democratic Party with its concern over #MeToo issues, “vitally important to many members of his party.” The reporters dismissed Reade's story as "a single allegation of assault." And a front-page “news analysis” sympathized with…

WHO Do They Think They Are? NYT Still Shills for China-Corrupted Group
May 3rd, 2020 6:56 PM
The New York Times may have slightly changed its tune on reporting how Communist China is indeed covering up and taking advantage of the coronavirus pandemic, but the paper is still reliably shilling for the World Health Organization’s China-corrupted response to the coronavirus crisis, as demonstrated previously and in several recent pieces. A rather hysterical piece debating whether…
