NY Times Venezuela Starvation Story Barely Notes Its Socialist Govt.
Any list of the year's most ignored news stories has to include Venezuela's frightening deterioration.

NYT Condescends to Trump Voters: He’s No Friend of the ‘Little Guy'
The New York Times put a condescending, left-wing populist screed disguised as “news analysis” on Monday’s front-page.

NYT Mocks Trump-Worshipping Evangelicals With His Visage on Ornament
The front of the New York Times Sunday Review gifted readers with condescension toward both conservative Christians and Fox News watchers from contributing religion writer Amy Sullivan: “A Very Merry War on Christmas.” The text box: “Conservative media spawns a new religious worldview: ‘Fox evangelicalism.’” Not only did the paper tar all evangelicals with a fringe idea of Trump as holy, it threw…
NYT's Latest Fact-Check' on Trump 'Deceit' Falls Flat on Its Face
New York Times “fact-checker” Linda Qiu's latest lame “gotcha” attempt against President Trump appeared under a strongly hostile headline, “Deceit and Confusion In Talk on Law and Order.” It comes on the heels of a backfired Times investigation -- a graph purporting to compare the lies of Donald Trump (103 after 10 months in office) and Barack Obama (just 18 during eight full years).Qiu has…

NY Times: Criticize ‘Fake News’? You’re Acting Like a Dictator
President Trump is attacking the media once again, and the New York Times is playing scared, and playing the “dictator” card.

NYT’s Chozick Spreads Liberal Love for Hillary, Ginsburg, Yellen
Twin toadying: New York Times political reporter Amy Chozick relished Hillary Clinton and other women D.C. liberal feminist figures (both in and out of power) in two stories Sunday, one on the front of Sunday Styles and one on the front of Sunday Business.
