FLASHBACK: When a Journalist Speculated on Having Sex With Obama

February 8th, 2020 12:15 PM
To use a massive understatement, journalists aren't fans of Donald Trump. This is quite the contrast to how they covered Barack Obama.

It was 11 years ago this week, on February 5, 2009, that the New York Times website published a piece on fantasizing about sex with the…

Column: Attack of the 'Fact Checking' Clones

February 8th, 2020 7:08 AM
Under President Trump, the State of the Union address has become the Super Bowl for the left-leaning “fact checkers.” It doesn’t matter if Republicans and independents enjoyed it immensely. Like Nancy Pelosi, these journalists want to rip his speech to pieces because it somehow overflows with “untruths.” But these supposedly “independent” guardians are failures at fact-checking the Democratic…

February 6th, 2020 10:10 PM
After more than three years since prediction fails, "conservative" New York Times columnist David Brooks' prognostication record remains at about the same laughable level.

January 31st, 2020 7:17 PM
Only the New York Times could make you feel guilty about tuning in to the Super Bowl, but there it was, in a full page in Friday’s edition: “It’s Flawed. It’s Ugly. It’s Beautiful.” Three culture reporters chatted about the upcoming spectacle of Super Bowl LIV. The online headline: “The Super Bowl Is Problematic. Why Can’t We Look Away?” They insulted (white) country music fans for good measure…

The hosts of The View spent time Tuesday complaining that the Republicans and Trump lawyers were conducting an unjust and even racist, trial in the Senate.

New York Times Hypes Watergate-Level ‘Smoking Gun’ in Bolton Book

January 28th, 2020 10:34 AM
New York Times Peter Baker’s lead-story “news analysis” on Tuesday suggested revelations from an unpublished memoir by Donald Trump’s former national security advisor, John Bolton, could be a Watergate-like “smoking gun” -- or at least would in normal political times.  Baker eagerly and perhaps prematurely made his “smoking gun” case: “John Bolton’s Account Upends Trump’s Denials, but Will It…

January 25th, 2020 1:34 PM
The New York Times is lining up excuses for why the Democrats’ brilliant impeachment case against Trump is not sinking in with Republicans: Conspiracy!

Repeat as Necessary -- Right-wing media have been laying the groundwork for Trump’s acquittal for half a century.”  She made dubious use of space by defending…
