Capitalism

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. Kendi says, “In order to truly be anti-racist, you also have to truly be anti-capitalist.” This is just silly.

Apple TV+’s drama The Morning Show is only 5 episodes into its latest season, but it’s still managed to shove a ton of liberal propaganda down viewers’ throats. In the latest episode, they went back in time to revisit Covid, the BLM riots, and the January 6 insurrection to mock southern conservatives. They also made the preposterous claim that “upwards of a billion people will die in our…

Season two of Prime Video’s romantic comedy With Love premiered earlier this month, and all we can say is… be glad we watch so you don’t have to. Right from episode one there was a sexual joke including “baby Jesus,” and it was all downhill from there with enough leftist propaganda to cover an entire liberal Hollywood Bingo card. The gay storylines, in particular, were so overdone,…

It’s obvious things have gotten bad when President Joe Biden’s talking points are being undercut by one of his most ardent lapdog economists.

A major global outlet funded by leftist billionaire George Soros actually published scathing criticism by two economists blasting the Federal Reserve’s role in creating the pretext for the bank failures that rocked U.S. markets.
