Former CNN and Washington Post political reporter Chris Cillizza was feeling contrite. In a Friday video, he suggested "As a reporter I have a confession to make. I should have pushed harder, earlier for more information about Joe Biden's mental and physical well-being and any signs of decline."

On Wednesday's Fresh Air, NPR host Terry Gross put on ex-Washington Post executive editor Martin Baron and New Yorker editor David Remnick for another.44-minute rehash of all the pompous talk about how Donald Trump hates "fact-based" journalism as it's published by these two propaganda organs for the left. It was especially humorous when Baron complained "I would…

The Media Research Center (MRC) seeks to uphold the original vision of Free Speech Week, and nothing encapsulates those efforts more than the free speech advocates MRC has honored this year.

Trump-loathing liberals were delighted when New York Times publisher Arthur Gregg Sulzberger wrote a long op-ed in The Washington Post attacking Donald Trump as a threat to press freedom. The message? "I have no interest in wading into politics, but this Trump guy is a danger to freedom of speech." So that would suggest "don't vote for Trump."

Politico and Bloomberg Opinion have just been exposed engaging in grotesque journalistic malfeasance just to suck up to the Biden-Harris White House.

In a gross violation of journalistic ethics, a CNN journalist gave the Biden administration a sneak peek of her article looking for the government stamp of approval before publishing.

On his CNN show on Saturday morning, host Victor Blackwell spoke to two black radio hosts who were granted interviews with President Biden -- Andrea Lawful-Summers of WURD in Philadelphia and Earl Ingram of WMCS in Milwaukee. He asked if the questions they asked were given to them by the White House, and Lawful-Summers said yes. 

It was remarkable breaking news, occurring live on CNN. The White House Correspondents Association hosted a dinner and a Biden for President rally broke out. CNN contributor Scott Jennings summed up the evening: “We had Biden speak tonight, and then we had a Biden surrogate effectively speak tonight.”

As we've pointed out how the networks typically ignore egregious gaffes by President Biden, Daily Caller White House correspondent Reagan Reese reports "White House communications staff has had to correct President Joe Biden’s public remarks at least 148 times since the beginning of 2024, a review of official White House transcripts shows."

Near the end of a tense White House press briefing Thursday dominated by questions about Israel, the New York Post’s Steven Nelson drew terse replies from Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre over his recent reporting on powerful White House aide Anthony Bernal being accused of “bull[ying] and verbally sexually harass[ing] colleagues over more than a decade.”

An MSNBC legal analyst and “misinformation expert” appeared worried that the unparalleled ease of communication that the modern internet allows threatens democracy. That’s why she suggested curbing the ability of regular citizens to use social media platforms in ways they see fit.  

Writing Thursday morning for The Hill, Fox News contributor and George Washington University Law School professor Jonathan Turley dropped a bombshell about this month’s layoffs at CBS News that the network seized the files of Catherine Herridge, who was sadly one of the correspondents let go and one of the only actual reporters in network news.

In the latest exhibit of Hiding Biden, the White House announced they will once again forego the tradition of a Super Bowl pregame interview of the president. It's one thing for Team Biden to be afraid of Fox News. But Obama donor Gayle King on CBS? On Monday night, CNN "Reliable Sources" newsletter Oliver Darcy ran defense under the headline "Biden's Media Scramble." 

Is Joe Biden treating the press better than Donald Trump did? It’s a low bar to argue he doesn’t describe the media as “enemies of the people.” Is he really treating them as they view themselves – as representatives of the people?
