NYT Shows Balance in Clinton-Sanders A1 Stories by Fawning Over Both

April 16th, 2016 3:16 PM
The New York Times has been accused of slanting its 2016 political coverage toward Hillary Clinton while stiffing Bernie Sanders. Well, in Thursday’s edition, there was balance: the paper’s coverage was equally effusive for both Democrats. While Hillary Clinton got a mawkish front-page celebration of her supposedly personal, secret work with black mothers whose children had been killed in…

April 14th, 2016 8:12 PM
Amy Chozick, one of the New York Times’ chief Hillary defenders, made Thursday’s front page with an evident attempt to boost Clinton’s sagging appeal among blacks, while assuming bad faith on the part of police, in “Black Victims Mothers Step Forward for Clinton.” Both Chozick and liberal Clinton embraced the current liberal media conventional wisdom that President Bill Clinton’s crime bill was…

Billionaire-Bashing Bernie Sanders Is a Millionaire With Three Homes

April 13th, 2016 4:52 PM
Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders rails against the “billionaire class” and has called income inequality “the greatest moral issue of our time,” but the senator from Vermont is “not exactly a man of modest means,” according to an article written by Kerri Anne Renzulli for the TIME magazine website. However, “nothing about Bernie’s net worth devalues his progressive beliefs,” stated…

NYT Hails Michelle Obama Taking on Race, Class in Graduation Talks

April 11th, 2016 8:55 PM
As Obama’s final term dwindles down, New York Times reporter Gardiner Harris made a celebratory defense of First Lady Michelle Obama’s supposedly newfound political voice on Monday: “Addressing Graduates, First Lady Speaks Out.” The text box read: “Displaying a personal side by highlighting issues involving race, gender and class.” All the liberal buzzwords went unchallenged by Harris. The NYT…

Knock, Knock: NYT Again Bangs Door for Transgenders, Abortion

April 10th, 2016 10:01 PM
The New York Times can’t get enough of a new study published in Science suggesting door-to-door canvassing can enlighten troglodyte citizens into supporting progressive policies like gay marriage, abortion (alongside Planned Parenthood), and gun control. The Times had just embraced the study in its news pages a few days before, and now contributing writer Benoit-Denizet Lewis devoted 5,000 words…

Once Again, Networks Tout Obnoxious Liberal Editorial as 'News'

April 10th, 2016 2:07 PM
Just three days ago, CBS, NBC and CNN all found it newsworthy to wave around copies of the New York Daily News with its obnoxious “F U” cover insult directed toward Ted Cruz. On Sunday, the networks all decided to cover a sophomoric anti-Donald Trump parody from the Boston Globe, even though the slam is appearing more than five weeks after the Massachusetts GOP primary. Since December, liberal…

Irony: NYT's Krugman Accuses Sanders of 'Petulant Self-Righteousness'

April 9th, 2016 10:27 AM
New York Times columnist Paul Krugman might be fresh out of friends before this campaign season is over. While his sanctimonious and classless attacks on Republicans have rendered him an unreliable political analyst, his recent assaults on the “Bernie bros” -- supposedly sexist Hillary-bashing Bernie Sanders' supporters -- have earned him new enemies on the left. On Friday, Krugman went for a…

Liberal NYT Loves Abortion Law Mockery, Plugs Transgender Persuasion

April 8th, 2016 6:47 PM
Last week the New York Times, proving its social liberal bona fides, crowned North Carolina as the home of bathroom bigotry against transgenders. On Friday, it was Indiana’s new abortion restrictions that were up for vulgar mockery. Yet the same day, the Times also showed how to sell people on transgenderism, door to door. Reporter Mitch Smith celebrated feminist activism in the form of a rain of…

New York Times San Francisco bureau chief Thomas Fuller embraced a major shift toward European-style social policy in that city in Wednesday's “No Pay Cuts for New Parents in San Francisco – City Becomes the First in the Country to Approve Six Weeks of Fully Paid Leave.” As shown by that headline, the Times got really excited about the local liberal ordinance, with a full story on the front of…

Not News: Once-Deported Illegal-Immigrant Driver Kills Father, 2 Girls

April 7th, 2016 12:33 AM
In a properly functioning news environment, where genuine journalists recognize important news and report it without first screening its relevance through a PC filter, the deaths of volunteer firefighter Peter Hacking and his two young daughters in a car crash near Wylie, Texas last week would have become a widely covered national story by now. Sadly, virtually the only reason it's known at all…

NYT's Calmes Puzzled Why Obama Not Thanked for Saving Blue-Collar Town

April 4th, 2016 9:23 AM
New York Times reporter Jackie Calmes got a prominent Sunday front-page spot for a rather humdrum story on economic recovery in a blue-collar Indiana town and why President Obama wasn’t getting the credit he deserved for it. Racism, perhaps? The puzzled headline: “Political Discontent Festers in Indiana Town Despite Jobs Surge.” Online it was more explicit: “Obama Gets Scant Credit in Indiana…

April 4th, 2016 8:58 AM
In the April 4 edition of Notable Quotables the liberal media: Barack Obama’s trip to Cuba inspires journalists to sing communism’s praises and worry about capitalism ruining that country’s “charm.” Meanwhile, anchors at PBS and CBS slam Ted Cruz for his “ugly” anti-terrorism policies and a former New York Times editor decries sexist persecution of “fundamentally honest” Hillary Clinton. 

NY Times Hypes NC as Home of Republican Bathroom Bigotry

April 3rd, 2016 10:21 PM
Carolina was in the mind of the liberal New York Times this weekend. The state’s Republican governor Pat McCrory recently signed religious freedom legislation that included a provision stating people in government buildings must use the restroom associated with their biological sex, the one on their birth certificate. In other words, the way public bathrooms have always worked. The Times,…
