On Thursday morning on America's Newsroom, Fox News Mediabuzz host Howard Kurtz ripped into The New York Times for a sketchy front page story by reporter Steve Eder on Wednesday claiming a foot doctor named Dr. Larry Braunstein "may" have faked a bone-spurs diagnosis for young Donald Trump to avoid the draft as a favor for the president's father Fred Trump, who owned the doctor's building. The…

New York Times media reporter Michael Grynbaum wrapped up the anti-Trump year for the press in “Trump’s Year of Escalating Press Tensions,” on the front of Thursday’s Business section. Grynbaum implied that refusing to deal with CNN showboat Jim Acosta makes you complicit with dictators: "Presidents usually avoid criticizing American journalists on foreign soil; visiting Britain, Mr. Trump called…

There is a pernicious media trend to treat ordinary partisan things as out of the ordinary and a danger when conservatives do them. One offender is New York Times Supreme Court reporter Adam Liptak. Recently he worried about the Supreme Court’s legitimacy, now that it was finally leaning somewhat rightward. He exhibited a sudden concern about the ordinary partisan phenomenon of “judge shopping,”…

There are rare moments that The New York Times allows some air out of its balloon of arrogance. For Christmas, Scott Tobias revisited some of the most popular Christmas-themed classics, and found the Times film critics didn't always match the popular consensus. "The holidays have given us an occasion to dig through the archives to see if New York Times critics were on the right side of history…

Appearing as a guest on Friday's All In show on MSNBC, former New York Times executive editor Howell Raines suggested that there is the "functional equivalent of treason" in the White House, and asserted that, unlike President Abraham Lincoln's Republican party, the modern GOP is "intent on tearing apart" the Union.

x The New York Times runs entire print and TV and Web ads with the slogan "The truth is more important than ever." But that's not the rule in their Sunday Book World section. The Times upset Jewish groups and Jewish writers in a "By the Book" interview with radical-left writer Alice Walker last Sunday. Walker was asked the usual question about what books are on her nightstand. She cited British…

Why can't a romantic comedy just be a romantic comedy? In Friday's New York Times, Amanda Hess had to make it about being haunted by late-stage capitalism. You've Got Mail is now twenty years old, and Hess is still lamenting how Meg Ryan "submits romantically to her capitalist subjugator."

New York Times Berlin bureau chief Katrin Bennhold managed to make a shocking case of German media malpractice all about Trump, and fretted about how the “far right” in Europe would pounce on the controversy to tar the media, in “German Reporter Made Up Stories and Now Critics Are ‘Popping the Corks.’" Bennhold classlessly dragged the Nazis into the mix, putting the genocidal dictatorship in the…

New York Times reporter Julie Hirschfeld Davis delivered a not-particularly friendly farewell to House Speaker and former vice-presidential candidate Paul Ryan of Wisconsin on Thursday. The story is notable for ideological labeling that’s severely slanted even for a Times story, with the prefix “ultra” dropped on Republicans no less than three times in this one report.

Well, well, well, it turns out that Planned Parenthood might not be the immaculate champion of women’s rights they insist to be.

In a Thursday report, The New York Times exposed the abortion giant’s “discrimination” against its own pregnant employees.
