Journalistic Issues

A June 2017 New York Times editorial falsely linked former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin to the 2011 attempted assassination of Arizona Democrat Rep. Gabrielle Giffords that left six dead. Palin filed a defamation suit. The Times is worried that the press’s free ride in the judicial system may be ending, as demonstrated in Jeremy Peters’ “Sarah…

Billionaire George Soros said he is working to “bend” the arc of history “in the right direction.” In Soros’ case, that direction is far to the left. To do it, he donated over $32 billion to his Open Society Foundations since 1984, to further leftist ideology and activism well beyond his own lifetime. Soros has committed a combined sum of more than $2.3 billion to create a global university…

Leftist media ratings company NewsGuard has struck another partnership to censor news outlets and publishers the platform deems objectionable. This time, the suppression will affect outlets that use a specific ad platform.

A new analysis reveals the extraordinary left-wing bias of website ratings firm NewsGuard, which should concern every American given that it is expanding its reach into cable and broadcast TV news. Liberal outlets were rated 27 points higher on average than news organizations on the right.

CNN took a sudden detour from its love affair with President Joe Biden and accused his White House of trying to quietly shape the media coverage of his atrocious economic agenda. The Reliable Sources newsletter reported that the “The White House, not happy with the news media's coverage of the supply chain and economy, has been working behind the scenes trying to reshape coverage in…

Media Research Center Vice President Dan Gainor went on Fox Business to dismantle disgraced liberal CNN host Chris Cuomo for his blatant violation of journalistic ethics concerning his brother.

There’s nothing that screams potential conflict of interest like a major newspaper’s owner getting millions in subsidies from the federal government it's supposed to be objectively covering. The New York Times reported that part of President Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better” (BBB) catastrophe includes funneling nearly $1.7 billion into local news outlets. Guess what? One of the…

Left-wing billionaire George Soros is reportedly backing a new leftist news outlet that openly advocates on behalf of labor unions.

The leftist activist behind the liberal news operation Courier Newsroom is at it again with a new scheme that is being backed by some of America’s most notorious liberal billionaires. Tara McGowan — founder of the “dark money” group ACRONYM behind Courier Newsroom — is getting help from left-wing mega-donors George Soros and LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman for a new media project she’s…

Climate activist James Murdoch is set to make a multimillion-dollar investment in the Associated Press climate journalism, as if AP didn’t already have a big enough left-wing bias. The Murdoch investment is going toward “the formation of a new climate reporting hub at the Associated Press,” according to an Axios scoop.

Liberal partisans who want to crush any shred of fairness in reporting are latching on to a Friday column in the Los Angeles Times by Jackie Calmes, who was an “objective” reporter for decades. The headline was "Why journalists are failing the public with ‘both-siderism’ in political coverage."

CNN shows have salivated at least seven times over climate activist James Murdoch’s virtue-signaling against Fox News in the past year, all while ignoring any mention of an atrocious media scandal that nearly nuked his career. News blew up in 2011 on how the now-defunct U.K. newspaper News of the World was set to publish its last issue following a massive phone-hacking scandal that…

A Twitter account that tracks what it calls “The best of what’s happening on Twitter in an instant” shows just how biased the social media site really is. The account's leftist cultural and political news content outnumbers conservative content six-to-one.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson said that mainstream news outlets should consider it their “duty” to reject Big Tech censorship before ultimately claiming “that's not going to happen.”
