Liz Cheney

On NBC’s Meet the Press, anchor Chuck Todd brought on disgraced Wyoming Congresswoman and pseudo Republican Liz Cheney to whine about Arizona Republican gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake and her supposed “threats to democracy.” Predictably joining in on the smear campaign, Todd asked Cheney if Republicans like Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin who are campaigning for Lake are “putting…

Days after recently ousted anti-Trump Congresswoman Liz Cheney laughably compared herself to former Republican President Abraham Lincoln, ABC’s This Week co-moderator Jonathan Karl took it a step further and compared Cheney to former President Theodore Roosevelt. The ahistorical idol worship didn’t end there, USA Today bureau chief Susan Page suggested Cheney could have the…

On Wednesday's New Day show, CNN's  John Avlon delivered another of his "Realty Check" segments which are often more about promoting liberal spin to attack conservatives than to be factually accurate. The liberal CNN analyst derided the GOP as a party that mostly nominates "hyperpartisan cowards and cranks."

Rep. Liz Cheney was clobbered by 37 points in her Wyoming Republican primary, but the media broke out their praises as she compared herself to Lincoln and Ulysses Grant. They asked her if she would run for president in 2024, ignoring all proof that she drove her political car off a cliff. Scott Whitlock joins the show to assess the contrast between today's Glorious Liz and yesterday's Odious…

NBC on Wednesday repeatedly lobbied Liz Cheney to run for president after she lost her renomination bid for Congress. Today co-host Savannah Guthrie also repeated the media-created comparison that Cheney is Obi-Wan Kenobi from Star Wars and Trump is Darth Vader. 

Given Liz Cheney's overwhelming defeat in yesterday's Wyoming Republican congressional primary, it would clearly be a very uphill slog to win a national GOP presidential primary, should that be her goal for 2024. On today's New Day, CNN cast Cheney as having two legs to her base of support: Democrats, and the Beltway media!
 

Liz Cheney on Tuesday night badly lost her renomination bid in Congress, getting trounced by BLANK points. Journalists have been eagerly cheering Cheney 2.0 as the GOP’s Joan of Arc, willing to be burned at the political stake for principles. But a simple look into history shows that journalistic love for a Republican is entirely dependent on how useful that person is to liberal press.

NBC journalists need to decide who Darth Vader is in their tortured political analogies. On Tuesday’s Today, Hallie Jackson said to an on-screen colleague, “[Let me] raise you a Star Wars analogy.” Talking about the probable loss of Liz Cheney in Wyoming’s congressional primary, she connected, “I'm told by one source that Cheney's staffers are really big fans of a recent editorial that…

Now that journalists see Liz Cheney as a heroic Joan of Arc, willing to be burned at the political stake, it’s good to sometimes remind everyone of the seething hatred many in the liberal media had for the daughter of Dick Cheney. One such example is the July 17, 2013 edition of MSNBC’s All In. 

As the Wyoming primaries approach, The New York Times is already preparing the post-election spin boosting the post-congressional exploits of Liz Cheney. The August 8 front-page headline was “Cheney Ready to Lose a Race, But Not a Fight.”

On Friday's PBS NewsHour, liberal MSNBC Sunday host and Washington Post columnist Jonathan Capehart made a Star Wars analogy, comparing Liz Cheney to Obi-Wan Kenobi (and Trump to Darth Vader).

In a maddening round of Sunday interviews, network anchors gushed all over Al Gore and Liz Cheney, and each were asked if they would run for president. Gore compared "climate deniers" to Uvalde cops, and Chuck Todd didn't blink. Instead, he made three false statements, arguing Americans were all on one side on abortion, guns, and climate.

On Thursday night's Don Lemon Tonight, Lemon and two of his guests CNN commentator Nia-Malika Henderson and Republican political strategist Scott Jennings discussed anti-Trump Republican Liz Cheney's primary challenge and whether she can survive it, or if she will be ousted on August 16. 

Morning Joe trumpets the ratings of the first night of the J6 ratings, which attracted, across several networks, a cumulative audience of about 20 million people. Joe and Mika make invidious comparisons with the ratings of Donald Trump's Apprentice shows. But Morning Joe rarely if ever mentions Joe Biden's terrible ratings. Not to mention Morning Joe's own terrible ratings: with a loss over…
