The coronavirus pandemic is doing strange things to awards shows. The shows, including the acceptance speeches, are pre-taped and shown virtually which makes for less spontaneous lectures from our woke betters in the entertainment world.

Media Research Center Vice President Dan Gainor condemned liberal media coverage of the so-called autonomous zones.

If you think New York Times economist Paul Krugman’s op-eds are bad, his Twitter account is even worse. It’s a collection of babble, not the commentary of a Nobel Laureate.

Left-wing super PAC Priorities USA Action continued to bombard the TV airwaves with misleading ads in an attempt to destroy President Donald Trump. Priorities USA Action’s latest incendiary anti-Trump ad, spot titled “Lack Of Leadership,” dominated 100 political ads aired about the coronavirus between June 13 and June 19 with an astounding 1,927 airings total.

The New York Times on Sunday featured culture reporter Dave Itzkoff’s saddened profile of talk show host Jimmy Fallon, under fire this month after a “Saturday Night Live” sketch from 2000 resurfaced featuring the comedian in blackface portraying comedian Chris Rock. “Jimmy Fallon Is Sorry. That’s a First Step” made for a two-page, 3,500 word (!) spread. The online headline deck was…

New York Times technology writer Kevin Roose made the front of Saturday’s Business section with “Platforms Denounce Racism That Thrives There.” But Roose’s definition of “racism” seems to mean, “criticizes Black Lives Matter activists.” Roose first made a name for himself at the paper with an elaborate, panicky Sunday front-page expose, “The Making of a YouTube Radical – How the Site’…

The media continue to take the knee to Black Lives Matter. USA Today pushed a leftist event calling for people to boycott companies that don’t support the movement.

“Boy, look at all those Jacobin BLM kids out there hating on cops, tearing down statues, getting people fired, canceling everything they can think of -- sure looks like fun. How can I, a simple Chicago Tribune editorial board member, get in on some of that? I know! I’ll connect a baseball team to a law enforcement organization that may have been racist in the past! You’re a genius, Steve…

Wednesday’s New York Times featured another labored attack on President Trump by White House correspondent Peter Baker. In a half-page “White House Memo,” Baker accused Trump of hypocrisy in “The ‘Law and Order’ President, but Not Close to Home.” He laundered the left-wing talking point that Trump doesn’t support all law enforcement, such as the intelligence services that went after…

Liberal billionaire George Soros is pouring it on in a multimillion-dollar effort to help Democrats turn out their voters in the 2020 election. The Associated Press reported that “A network of deep-pocketed progressive donors is launching a $59 million effort to encourage people of color to vote by mail in November.”

Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy has surveyed the damage done by Black Lives Matter-inspired riots over the past couple weeks and has surmised that the solution to the violence is white Christians repenting of their racism.

From early March to late May, the coronavirus pandemic eclipsed all other news stories, consuming nearly all of the airtime on the Big Three (ABC, CBS and NBC) evening newscasts. But those same networks put the virus story on the back burner for two weeks while they diverted nearly all of their coverage to nationwide protests against police brutality.

Amidst what was sadly a White House Press Briefing marred by a litany of audio problems (which the White House later cleans up), the shameless liberal press corps turned in an embarrassing performance while Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany schooled them on their double standard in coronavirus concerns about Saturday’s Trump rally versus Black Lives Matter protests.

It is a gift, as Robert Burns wrote, to see ourselves as others see us. One of those “others” is Caroline Glick, who writes on her webpage from Israel: “Americans are now expected to kneel for the Star Spangled Banner and disavow American history while swallowing whole a false, malicious new history that claims America has been a force for evil at home and worldwide since it was nothing more…
