Kamala Harris

The Democratic Convention begins tomorrow in Chicago, and there should be absolutely no suspense over how the media will treat Kamala Harris, Tim Walz and the party’s other stars. The MRC’s archives, going back to 1988, show that Democrats always get a huge tailwind of good press coming out of their party conventions.

National Review political editor Jim Geraghty shot down snotty New York Times podcaster Lulu Garcia-Navarro on CNN's The Chris Wallace Show on Saturday when she tried to suggest it's "a little disingenuous for some on the right" to be demanding Kamala Harris do interviews and/or press conferences. 

Ya gotta love it. Long after the 2024 campaign enters the dustbin of history, the Time magazine cover story on Kamala Harris will shine through as a perfect example of just how the liberal “mainstream” media rallies when one of their own is newly front and center.

MSNBC’s Joy Reid and her Friday guests could not control their laughter on The ReidOut at Kamala Harris and Tim Walz discussing the latter’s “white guy tacos” and subsequent GOP reaction. For Reid, the episode proved that they are “normal, relatable, and just downright fun and joyful people,” while their Republican counterparts are not.

The Saturday morning editions of the network morning shows took different approaches to Vice President Kamala Harris’s radical proposal to install price controls on food. ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today barely touched it, portraying it as if it were just another proposal, while CBS Saturday Morning was more willing to say the proposal was more politics…

New York Times columnist and PBS News Hour theoretical conservative David Brooks was shocked on Friday’s show that “a responsible Democratic candidate” would endorse Soviet-like price controls on food.

NBC political analyst Chuck Todd is still showing up with hot takes on the campaign. In a deep dive into the NBC News Now streaming channel, on Wednesday’s edition “MTP Now,” Todd spun furiously that  Kamala Harris benefits politically from the fact that “She doesn’t have that many fingerprints on the Biden administration” because “the Biden people did ice her out a lot, didn’t want her…

On Thursday, Comedy Central’s Desi Lydic welcomed New York Magazine writer-at-large Rebecca Traister and Rutgers Prof. Brittney Cooper to The Daily Show to gush over Kamala Harris and breathe a sigh of relief that she, and not Republican Nikki Haley, may be the first female president.

A shocking exchange occurred on Univision’s Linea de Fuego (Firing Line), during host Luis Carlos Vélez’s exchange with Maca Casado, Director of Hispanic Media for the Harris-Walz campaign. Under pressure from Velez over the Harris campaign’s use of fake headlines in their Google ads, Casado flippantly told Velez that this was pretty commonplace.

When discussing the media’s biases, we often talk about biases by omission or commission. But tonight we must also consider bias by zone-flooding, wherein the media avoid talking about something potentially detrimental to Democrats by backfilling newscast time with nonsense about Republicans.

Media pundits have clutched their pearls at Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign for deceitfully editing news headlines in Google ads. But MRC Free Speech America Vice President Dan Schneider said the scandal was predictable.

MSNBC’s Joy Reid is terrified of religion intersecting with politics and is constantly worrying on The ReidOut about the threat of “Christian Nationalism.” On Wednesday, though, she found an exception for Kamala Harris supporters who mix religion and politics because they are like the “Christian pastors who led the civil rights movement.”

The liberal media can spin Wednesday’s inflation report however they want (and they have in some wild cases), but nothing changes the underlining facts how Americans continue to struggle. Even though one AP reporter eagerly wondered if “the inflation problem is solved”, Fox’s duo of Peter Doocy and Edward Lawrence showed up at that day’s White House press briefing to give both Karine Jean-…

On Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle predicts that Kamala Harris will finish Trump off in their debate. She's "a very sophisticated, very intelligent woman, and she hammers him like a prosecutor and doesn't let him off the hook, he will go -- I can't say it -- But something will snap in him and that will be it."
