NYT: Giuliani Aligns With 'Hard Right' With Racial Anti-Obama Outburst

February 21st, 2015 8:24 PM
The New York Times kept on its old Rudy the Racist beat, using the former New York City mayor's recent remarks suggesting President Obama doesn't love America to attack him in a front-page story on Saturday: "His remarks this week mostly drew derision and outrage, and seemed to further distance Mr. Giuliani from the heroic, above-the-fray image he carefully burnished after the Sept. 11 attacks,…

February 21st, 2015 6:18 PM
Since the story hit The Boston Globe and The New York Times in 2002, the network newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC have been aggressive watchdogs of the Catholic Church in America and the accusations and lawsuits filed about sexually abusive priests.

NYT Applauds Elite NY Private Schools’ ‘White Privilege’ Propaganda

February 20th, 2015 2:08 PM
It’s a little strange how much the liberal elite, who tend to congregate in New York’s Upper-East side and in West Hollywood, enjoy punishing themselves by bemoaning their privileged status.

'Illegal' Aliens? Media Outlets Say 'Undocumented' or 'Unauthorized'

February 18th, 2015 10:59 PM
Although a Texas judge issuing an injunction against Obama’s “executive action” on illegal immigrants came late Monday, national newspapers all put that ruling on the front page on Wednesday. Some headlines buried the judge. USA Today had “Obama immigration plan blocked.” The Wall Street Journal ran with “Obama Dealt Setback on Immigration.” None of the headlines mentioned “illegal” immigrants.…

Bozell & Graham Column: Aiming the Starter's Gun at the GOP

February 17th, 2015 11:42 PM
The safest bet you can possibly make at the beginning of a presidential election cycle is that the “objective” national media will savage the Republican contenders with “investigative” journalism. Not just one Republican contender, but all the Republican contenders. It’s a bit amazing to look back at 2012 and remember that every Republican candidate was punched in the kisser by “journalism” if…

February 16th, 2015 10:25 AM
It took well over 24 hours, but the New York Times finally corrected (HT Instapundit) op-ed columnist Gail Collins's ignorant Saturday contention about how Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker caused teacher layoff in 2010: "As well as the fact that those layoffs happened because Walker cut state aid to education."

NY Times Bemoans Libya's Implosion; No Mention of Obama or U.S.

February 15th, 2015 9:56 AM
Libya's descent into chaos troubles the New York Times editorial board. Naturally, the Old Gray Lady's Sunday editorial, even as it referenced the 2011 "civil war," didn't even try to make any association between the current mess and the administration which initiated it. The editorial's recitation of the current situation, without any mention of President Obama, NATO, or the United States…
