Capitalism

The leftist media couldn’t convince people that Bidenomics was the American economy’s saving grace. And now they’re failing to convince people that President Donald Trump’s policies are somehow going to drive the economy into Armageddon.

Why pay higher prices in a more competitive housing market when you can just keep paying compulsory taxes on your capital gains? That’s effectively the head-scratching argument CNN tried to make to ding President Trump’s tax-cutting agenda.

Prime Video’s We Were Liars, adapted from E. Lockhart’s novel, has been trending in the top 5 on the platform. Its gripping plot and emotional twist deliver, but the “rich, white people bad” narrative sours the experience.

Hulu’s Nine Perfect Strangers ended its second season with the episode “Never Change,” on Wednesday, revealing the secret connection the guests’ have at alternative therapy pioneer Masha’s (Nicole Kidman) psychedelic Alpine wellness retreat. The finale delivers a pointed anti-capitalist message by casting billionaire David Sharpe (Mark Strong) as the ultimate villain.

CNN always wants to say left-wing radicals are less radical than you think, according to "some experts." They're never going to perform that trick for conservatives. CNN reporter Nathaniel Meyersohn attempted to mainstream socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s demented push for government-owned grocery stores.

The stock market continues to go gangbusters, so MRC Business thought it would be worth revisiting one of CNN’s dumbest End-of-the-World predictions about the Trump presidency to date.

Apparently, American innovation and capitalism is destroying us. On Tuesday morning’s episode of CBS Mornings Plus, hosts Tony Dokoupil and Adriana Diaz had a painfully out of touch conversation with Evan Osnos of The New Yorker– a magazine known for their in-depth commentary on real, pressing issues, like the lack of gay children's books in American preschools– about his…

For the second Monday in a row, Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart used his time as host of The Daily Show to launch an attack against capitalism. While Stewart managed to keep his hand in one piece this time, he wondered to Princeton sociologist Matthew Desmond if capitalism requires poor people to function while Desmond urged the country to return to the economic policies of the 1960s.…

Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos announced a dramatic ideological shift for his newspaper’s opinion section toward free markets, and staff are predictably having a nervous breakdown over it.

Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart went on such a fierce anti-capitalism rant on Monday’s episode of The Daily Show that he literally gave himself a bloody hand as he smashed his coffee cup against his desk. Afterwards, Stewart would call capitalism “exploitative” and suggest Democrats adopt a new MANGIONE acronym before jokingly stopping himself.

Since the 1980s, the Media Research Center has chronicled lefty journalists’ contempt for capitalism and free markets. Here are the top 20 quotes from our archives demonstrating the radical perspective that’s become all-too-commonplace within the liberal media.

The New York Times had the temerity to actually blame free markets for Venezuela’s descent down the economic cesspool under socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro.

Greg Rosalsky of National Public Radio’s podcast “Planet Money” (which aims to explain the economy to listeners) has returned back from “lengthy parental leave” smitten by leftist social media rants, as shown in Monday’s segment “Sleep training: Life preserver for parents or "symptom of capitalism"?”

Capitalism and racism go together? I hear it all the time. “Racism is intricately linked to capitalism,” says famous Marxist Angela Davis. “It’s a mistake to assume that we can combat racism by leaving capitalism in place.” “Anti-racist” activist Ibram X.
