NY Times Defines GOP Extremism: Owning Guns, Not Voting for Cheney
A long, overheated New York Times Sunday editorial, “The Republican Party and the Scourge of Extremist Violence,” was part of the paper’s hysterical editorial series The Danger Within, condescendingly “urging readers to understand the danger of extremist violence.” (Translated from Times-speak: “Keep voting Democrat!”)
Editor’s Pick: National Review Takes Blowtorch to Pro-Censorship Media
Writing Sunday for our friends at National Review, senior writer Charles C.W. Cooke provided another scalding evisceration of the liberal media that have become modern-day Stasi agents meting out punishment for undesirable opinions and “zealous obscurantists staffing would-be censorship agencies” and thus having moved beyond previous self-centered descriptors as “firefighters,” “mediators,”…
The Left’s Cynical ‘Speech Is Violence’ Ploy
Last week, another evil mass shooter unleashed horror at a gay club in Colorado Springs, killing 5 and wounding another 25. The shooter -- whose name I refuse to mention in order to disincentivize future shooters, who seek notoriety -- was clearly mentally ill: Just last year, the shooter reportedly threatened his mother with a bomb, resulting in his arrest.

NYT Accuses Gun Rights Advocates of Brandishing to Shut Down Debate
In a Saturday article headlined “At Protests, Guns Are Doing the Talking,” New York Times investigative reporter Mike McIntire accuses gun rights advocates with “a right-wing agenda” of “increasingly using open-carry laws to intimidate opponents and shut down debate” at protests, gatherings, and public meetings. There’s a legal term for what he’s describing and it’s called “…
NY Times Profiles ‘Compassionate’ Activist Who Wants Humanity to Die
New York Times climate reporter Cara Buckley issued a weirdly casual “news” profile of the “gentle” leader of a radical anti-humanity movement called Voluntary Human Extinction, datelined (naturally) Portland, Oregon, under the admirably honest headline: “Earth Now Has 8 Billion Humans. This Man Wishes There Were None.” So enthusiastic was Buckley that this sentence was included in…

Inescapable Idiocy at the NY Times: ‘Trump, the Black Hole and Me'
The New York Times is not taking Donald Trump’s recent presidential run announcement well, judging by the latest psychobabble emanating from the paper. The latest is an interactive feature at nytimes.com: “Trump, the Black Hole and Me.” Yes, you can purge your anti-Trump emotions by typing them into a black void: "Did seeing Donald Trump back on the main stage stir up some old…
Hypocritical NY Times Poses Pelosi as Victim of Violence-Loving GOP
The New York Times devoted a 1,700-word story on Friday’s front page to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stepping down from her Democratic leadership role. Congressional correspondent Carl Hulse proved his usual unctuous self: "Pelosi, the most powerful woman in American politics, became a favorite target for Republicans, who demonized and dehumanized her in increasingly ugly terms."
Flashback: When Dems Lost ’02 Midterms, Liberals Blamed Fox News
Twenty years ago, Democrats lost a midterm election they had expected to win. But instead of blaming “candidate quality” or a party message that was out of synch with voters, liberal pundits whined that the real problem was that the media were too slanted towards conservatives for liberals to get a fair shake. That’s right, a pro-conservative press.
Column: The Most Worshipful Michelle Obama Review Ever?
Ben Shapiro was blunt on Twitter. He had discovered “The most sycophantic book review ever written.” The book was the second tome from multi-millionaire author and advice guru Michelle Obama. The review appeared in The New York Times, from the paper’s “Help Desk” columnist Judith Newman. She’s “the help,” all right.
