New Jersey

It was a Democratic wave election, and the journalists went surfing. The amount of TV coverage of off-year elections in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City was minimal this fall, perhaps because Democrats were feeling good about their chances and didn't want to give publicity to their opponents. Negative angles on Zohran Mamdani or Jay Jones were ignored or downplayed. MRCTV's Brittany…

On Wednesday morning, ABC, CBS, and NBC were riding high and drunk on power after seeing their preferred candidates sweep with socialist Zohran Mamdani’s “astonishing surge” in New York City and Democrats Mikie Sherrill in New Jersey, and Abigail Spanberger in Virginia romping to huge wins, declaring this a GOP “bloodbath” and “glimmer of hope” for Democrats in 2026 with “a guidebook” to…

On Wednesday, ABC’s Good Morning America was ebullient over the blue wave Tuesday night in four blue states (California, New Jersey, New York, and Virginia) and predictably making long-reaching proclamations about 2026 as nationwide blue tsunami against President Trump and the GOP, including supposed popularity of democratic socialism. As part of their morning-after celebrations, the…

CNN granted a platform on Wednesday night to socialists Bernie Sanders and AOC in a "Shutdown Town Hall." The host, Kaitlan Collins, interrupted them only nine times. But when Collins interviewed Trump in a town hall format in 2023, she interrupted 113 times. Fox News contributor Joe Concha addresses that terrible tilt and other topics. 

This past Thursday it was revealed that New Jersey Congresswoman Mikie Sherrill, the democrat candidate in the upcoming gubernatorial election, who is running against Republican Jack Ciattarelli, was not permitted to walk with her class during 1994 Naval Academy graduation ceremonies. The incident revolves around a cheating scandal, reportedly involving some 130 midshipmen in Sherrill's class…

Late Monday, interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba announced assault charges against far-left Congresswoman LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) in relation to a physical confrontation outside an Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) facility. But through Wednesday morning, ABC’s top news shows — Good Morning America and World News Tonight — had yet to cover it while their…

Among the many laws that took effect at the beginning of this new year is one in New Jersey that will astound and should anger people with children in the state’s public schools. It’s called Act 1669 and it removes a requirement that teachers pass a basic reading, writing and math test to be eligible to teach. The law was signed by Gov. Phil Murphy (D-NJ) last June.

Local “enterprise reporter” Christopher Maag’s latest New York Times byline boasted of having “spent four weeks reporting in Paterson and Clifton, N.J., interviewing members of the Palestinian community,” and the resulting journalism certainly identified with the Palestinian cause, with added melodrama that started in the headline: “In a Place Called Little Palestine, People Feel…

Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary ripped leftist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) for her role in hamstringing the tax-obsessed state of New York from being able to effectively produce jobs.

In his latest denunciation of Gov. Ron DeSantis objecting to leftist propaganda in education, Washington Post columnist Jonathan Capehart claiming he was in the first generation of his family "to not have to pick cotton." Capehart grew up with his mother in New Jersey (his father died early in his life). Where do they pick cotton in New Jersey? 

The amount of money that people will spend to push the pro-abort narrative is insane. 

At The Washington Post, when Democrats are kicked unceremoniously out of office, it can only mean one thing. Democracy died in darkness. They diagnosed the problem in a story headlined "How the media missed a New Jersey senate candidate’s racist social media posts — until he’d already won."

It’s time for the post-election Bitter Tears Edition of the NewsBusters Podcast, recounting the media meltdowns as the Republicans took over all the statewide elections in Virginia and retook the House of Delegates. When our media Democrats figure out they’re going to lose, the anger about the “whitelash” is guaranteed. Losing politicians might concede with grace, but journalists seldom do.…

Republican gubernatorial candidate Jack Ciattarelli stunned the political and media establishment on Tuesday with a breathtaking performance. As of 8:30 AM on Wednesday, Jack Ciattarelli leads incumbent Democrat Phil Murphy…
