NYT Front-Page News? Random Dem Rants Over Jews 'Snookering' Palestine
February 28th, 2024 10:32 PM
New York Times reporter Jennifer Medina was the latest reporter to cover the pro-Palestinian rump of Democrats turning against Biden in Michigan, on Tuesday’s front page: “Biden Is Losing Party Loyalists Over Gaza War.” While it’s interesting to see the Times feature prominent coverage of a movement that opposes Biden in an election year, Medina’s unquestioning acceptance of…
NY Times: GOP's Flores Not Historic Hispanic, Just 'Far-Right Latina'
July 9th, 2022 10:39 PM
Latina Republican Mayra Flores’ historic win in a Texas congressional district in the Rio Grande Valley was greeted by the Times not with celebration but bitterness and denial. This is the same newspaper that loves to mark such supposed ethnic milestones on the Democratic side, as shown in the nauseating tributes to Sen. Kamala Harris and Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. By…
NYT Smears Kavanaugh Again, Uses Cuomo to Credit Dems With Standards
August 5th, 2021 8:51 PM
In an impressive feat of ideological dexterity, New York Times national politics reporter Jennifer Medina used the damning report outlining sexual misconduct committed by New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo to give the Democratic Party unearned credit for its high standards on combating sexual charges in their ranks in her Tuesday article “Cuomo, Trump and Other Politicians Accused of…
NYT Attempts Balance, Fails: Hispanic GOP Stoked on BLM 'Conspiracy'
March 6th, 2021 4:36 PM
In some ways, the front-page story of Saturday’s New York Times by Jennifer Medina offered welcome balance: “As Latino Men Tilt to Right, Democrats Ask Why.” But one paragraph from Medina is attracting much derisory attention on social media.
IRONY: NYT Accuses Conservative Outlets of Spreading Misinformation
October 27th, 2020 2:25 PM
News and opinion the New York Times doesn’t want circulating are conveniently dismissed as “disinformation.” A lead National Section story by Patricia Mazzei and Jennifer Medina from Miami: “Fake Political News Aimed at Latinos To Suppress Vote – A disinformation system that portrays the Black Lives Matter movement as evil threatens to drive down voter turnout.” Tiffany Hsu’s story…
NY Times Front Page: 'Coronavirus Is Deadliest Where Democrats Live'
May 27th, 2020 9:00 AM
It’s official: The coronavirus is a partisan weapon for the New York Times. The paper deployed it in its co-lead story slot Monday -- Memorial Day -- “Virus at Its Deadliest in the Strongholds of Democrats.” The online version of that headline was even blunter: “The Coronavirus Is Deadliest Where Democrats Live.”
NY Times’ Lerer Weeps Over ‘Two White Men,’ But Slimed Tulsi Gabbard
March 6th, 2020 5:55 PM
Sen. Elizabeth Warren has dropped out of the presidential race, and The New York Times (which bizarrely endorsed both Warren and Sen. Amy Klobuchar) is bitter. The headline to Friday’s front-page “news analysis” by Lisa Lerer blamed sexism: “A Two-Man Race? Women Aren’t Surprised.”
NYTimes Gives Beto, All Dems Room to Blame Trump Rhetoric for El Paso
August 5th, 2019 2:03 PM
The New York Times’s lead story Monday morning was of course the mass murder of 29 people in two mass shootings in Dayton and El Paso. The second paragraph cast some blame at “angry words directed at immigrants...by right-wing pundits and President Trump.” The theme of Monday’s paper was to tie President Trump to the El Paso mass murderer. Peter Baker and Michael Shear’s “news analysis,” “In…
NYT Laments Loss of CA High-Speed Rail: ‘Can America Still Build Big?'
February 25th, 2019 2:16 PM
California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom has made liberals crestfallen by conceding to fiscal reality and scaling back the massively expensive and delayed high-speed rail project. But Monday’s New York Times didn’t quite frame it that way: “California Curtails a Rail Project, Undercutting Dreams of Building Big." The online headline: “Can America Still Build Big?" The text was slightly less…
NY Times Marks ‘Extraordinary’ May Day With Lefty Anti-Trumpers
May 3rd, 2017 8:21 AM
Tuesday’s New York Times celebrated the Communist holiday May Day in its own predictable way, signing on to whatever the left was marching in outrage about this year. This time around the goals seemed a bit confused, beyond inchoate hatred for the elected president, but the paper enthusiastically played along with the “extraordinary” gatherings anyway: “On May Day, Marchers Fight for Myriad Goals…
‘Dictators’ and Double Standards: NYT Loves Leftist Anti-Trump Protest
November 13th, 2016 6:45 PM
Remember those concerned New York Times stories about the dictatorial dangers of refusing to accept election results? Apparently they only applied to Donald Trump. In Sunday’s edition, New York Times reporters hypocritically hailed anti-Trump demonstrators in “Protesters Take Anti-Trump Message to His Doorstep, and Plan Next Steps."
NY Times Oddly Ambivalent About Calif. Stopping Campus Anti-Semitism
March 27th, 2016 7:04 PM
The New York Times’ Ian Lovett reported Sunday on the University of California condemning anti-Semitism in its university system, especially in relation to the anti-Israeli BDS movement infesting college campuses. The problem has been festering for years -- and so has the Times’ oddly ambivalent response to the outbreaks of anti-Semitism on left-wing college campuses. While the paper is eager to…
NY Times Shields Disgraceful Goldstone Report Claiming Israel Targeted
April 21st, 2011 11:33 AM
New York Times Jerusalem Bureau Chief Ethan Bronner and reporter Jennifer Medina summarized on Wednesday the outcry after the dramatic reversal earlier this month by Judge Richard Goldstone. The judge authored the notorious "Goldstone report" for the United Nations Human Rights Council, blaming the state of Israel, but not the terrorist group Hamas, for making targets of civilians during the…
Buttering Up California's Budget Director (?) Fighting 'Draconian' Spe
March 29th, 2011 3:50 PM
New York Times reporter Jennifer Medina’s Sunday story from Sacramento focused on the state’s cute political couple, Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown and his young budget director Ana Matosantos: “Political Odd Couple, United by Crisis In California Budget.”
They are a constant if unlikely pair these days: the oldest man elected governor of California and the woman who is its youngest budget…
