Weather Channel: Many of Trump's Properties Will Be Underwater by 2100

June 13th, 2017 2:40 PM
Late last week, the Associated Press attempted to troll President Donald Trump by claiming that his decision to withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord "may speed up" damage to his organizations' properties in Florida and other low-lying areas because of a "climate change"-driven acceleration in rising sea levels — by 2100. At the Weather Channel's Weather.com Friday evening, writer Pam Wright…

On June 10, Bustle’s Lani Seelinger lambasted Ivanka Trump, claiming all feminists must “[stand] up for abortion rights” and “support Planned Parenthood.” Media have levied heavy criticism against the eldest first daughter, Bustle foremost among them. The particular content of the criticism stemed from Ivanka’s apparent silence on or divergence from leftist agenda. Yet Bustle’s criticisms…

CNN Panel Refutes WashPost's Celebration of Trump's 'Very Bad Day'

June 12th, 2017 4:40 PM
Washington Post media columnist Margaret Sullivan was almost beside herself with glee Saturday afternoon. Sullivan apparently believes that because a bunch of establishment press outlets which have relentlessly attacked President Donald Trump for nearly two years predictably called him a liar in the wake of James Comey's testimony meant that he had "another terrible, horrible, no good, very bad…

Two Sponsors Pull Out of Trump-Assassinating Play

June 11th, 2017 11:34 PM
Two large corporations have withdrawn as sponsors of "Free Shakespeare in the Park" in New York City because of the theater group's presentation of a modernized version of Julius Caesar where a man who is clearly a stand-in for Donald Trump gets assassinated. Given the play's offensive content, a very pertinent question to ask would be: "When will Time Warner, the parent company of CNN, which at…

Despite Obama's Stunts, CNN Blames Trump For 'Strain' Between the Two

June 11th, 2017 9:00 PM
President Donald Trump has been in office for almost five months. CNN's Kevin Liptak, whose network bio still brags about how he, as "White House producer," "has traveled the world covering President Obama," noted in a Saturday report updated Sunday morning that Trump and Obama "haven't spoken or seen each other" since Inauguration Day. Gosh, I wonder why?

NYT's Weisman: Don't Report ISIS Claiming Credit for 'Small' Attacks

June 10th, 2017 10:13 AM
The idea that reporting the facts about terror attacks encourages more terrorism — an idea ridiculously advanced by the likes of former Secretary of State John Kerry during the Obama administration — has apparently gained some traction in the establishment press. On Tuesday, bothered by a "FOX NEWS ALERT" (in, oh my gosh, all caps) that "ISIS claims responsibility" for the hostage siege in…

HuffPost Piece Thinks Trump Leaving Paris 'Is an Impeachable Offense'

June 9th, 2017 4:41 PM
Conservative talk radio show host Rush Limbaugh dedicated time on his Friday program to mocking a deranged Huffington Post column by Thomas Jefferson School of Law professor Marjorie Cohn that President Trump’s withdrawal of the U.S. from the Paris climate deal “constitutes an impeachable offense” and crime against humanity.

AP Frets: Children of Illegal Immigrants Aren't Getting Food Stamps

June 9th, 2017 10:09 AM
During Barack Obama's presidency, we were constantly assured by the administration and its press apparatchiks that deportations had greatly increased during his tenure. So it's more than a little strange that the Associated Press is now worried that because of President Donald Trump's "crackdown on illegal immigration," fewer people who are genuinely eligible for "federal food assistance" are…

CNN Claims Comey Would 'Refute' Trump, Issues Weaselly 'Correction'

June 8th, 2017 2:53 PM
CNN apparently sees part of its mission as putting out weakly sourced, anonymous and likely untrue information when it makes President Donald Trump look bad, and then weakly  "correcting" it with no apologies when the truth becomes known. A particularly egregious example of this occurred Tuesday when the network published a story and broadcast video segments declaring that former FBI Director…

Just Tell Me If It's Raining: Weather.com Loses It Post-Paris Decision

June 6th, 2017 10:21 PM
Opening Weather.com to find my hometown’s weather report this past Friday came as an unpleasant surprise. Several apocalyptic articles attempting to scare readers (or, more appropriately, weather-report-seekers) of the dangers of pulling out of the Paris accord cluttered the website. Apparently, it is no longer possible to search the web for rain predictions without being force-fed politically…

Moore Makes Safe Space for Whistleblowers Against Trump's 'Tyranny'

June 6th, 2017 11:16 AM
The same morning that a young NSA contractor was charged with leaking confidential national security documents to a liberal media outlet, filmmaker Michael Moore is encouraging more government workers to follow suit. Tuesday, Moore proudly announced his new website, a “safe space” for whistleblowers to leak classified intelligence pertaining to the president, called “TrumpiLeaks.”

Profane Trump Attacker Reza Aslan: It's 'Not Like Me'; Oh Yes It Is!

June 5th, 2017 12:22 PM
Apparently Reza Aslan, the star and executive producer of CNN's Believer documentary series is among those who haven't figured out that whatever you put out there on the Internet stays out there on the Internet. In "apologizing" for his profane, since-deleted tweet directed at President Donald Trump Saturday evening after the London terrorist attacks, Aslan claimed that "it's not like me" to…

CNN Denies 'Staging' London Protest, But Orchestration Is Obvious

June 5th, 2017 11:24 AM
On Sunday in London, CNN's Becky Anderson and an accompanying camera crew were captured by another videographer appearing to stage an anti-ISIS protest by a small group equipped with printed signs. CNN has denied staging the event, claiming that it "simply filmed" those involved, but it's clear that the affair was at the very least quite orchestrated and agenda-driven.

MSNBC Worries About Police 'Overreacting' After London Terror Attacks

June 4th, 2017 6:20 PM
MSNBC's Richard Lui appears to be testing the limits of irresponsible media coverage of terrorist incidents. Up until now, the press has fretted in the aftermath of such attacks about possible retaliations or "backlash" against Muslims or others not involved in them, even though such misguided revenge-seeking has rarely occurred. Saturday evening, Lui worried about police "overreacting" shortly …
