By Tim Graham ~ When is a fake setting not a fake setting? When Joe Biden sits in front of it. The “independent fact checkers” – a phrase that in itself strains credulity – leaped to defend President Biden after he received a COVID booster shot in the Old Executive Office Building on September 27. […]
By Autumn Johnson ~ Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton suggested that she wants more censorship from Big Tech giants like Facebook. In an interview with The View, Clinton blamed Facebook and Former President Donald Trump for the “constitutional crisis” of the Jan. 6 riot. She joined President Joe Biden and other liberals in calling for […]
By Jay Maxson ~ Progressive guilt and racial grievance mongering were the order of the day for Monday in New England. And, oh, yes, the Boston Marathon took place there, too. USA Today’s left-wing sports columnist Nancy Armour and the Boston Athletic Association asserted the sport of distance running is far too white and has erased indigenous […]
By Autumn Johnson ~ Steven Hill, a former policy director at the Center for Humane Technology, is suggesting that Facebook issue use “permits.” Hill detailed his thoughts in an op-ed for Project Syndicate. “Digital operating permits,” Hill said, would “address big tech’s monopoly problem” and “protect users.” His reasoning includes a prediction that limiting content […]
By Kyle Drennen ~ On Thursday, The Washington Free Beacon reported that Google and it’s subsidiary YouTube, starting in November, would end monetization of any content that engages in supposed “climate change denial.” The tech giant announced it would not tolerate anything that went against “well-established scientific consensus around the existence and causes of climate […]
By Tim Graham ~ Can the mistrust of the media get much greater? Gallup pollsters reported on Thursday that American trust in the media “to report the news fully, accurately and fairly has edged down four percentage points since last year to 36 percent, making this year’s reading the second lowest in Gallup’s trend.” Overall, just seven […]
By Tim Graham ~ In the last few years, Facebook has become Public Enemy #1 in the media’s imagination, and Mark Zuckerberg is suddenly the creepy James Bond villain. Celebrated PBS filmmaker Ken Burns even ranted on a podcast that Zuckerberg was an “enemy of the state” who should be in jail. After Facebook went […]
By Lora Ries ~ Tuesday’s Senate hearing with Facebook “whistleblower” Frances Haugen was part of a slick, well-produced rollout of a former Facebook employee, complete with a prerecorded and well-timed “expose” on CBS’ “60 Minutes,” harmonious media cheerleading, and paid Democratic consultants. With this razzle-dazzle, the witness and her handlers want the audience to use […]
By Tim Graham ~ The hottest trend in liberal media terminology continues! Luke Gentile at the Washington Examiner reported The Washington Post officially updated its stylebook to de-emphasize the term “pregnant women” in favor of “pregnant individuals” to reflect their aerobic efforts “striving to be as inclusive as possible.” The change was announced on Twitter on […]
By P.J. Gladnick ~ On the heels of being exposed in September for their fake news story about supposed Ivermectin overdose patients flooding hospitals, you would figure that Rolling Stone might want to lower their hyperbole profile a bit. However, no such luck. On October 1 that rag published an extreme climate alarmist hit piece […]
By Tim Graham ~ Joe Biden ran for president – in part – on the idea of being a national unifier, as someone who could work across the aisle and strike a bipartisan compromise. But that’s not at all the way he’s governing. The media are fine with it. They’re rooting for routing Republicans. Let’s […]
By Tim Graham ~ NPR achieved something truly “woke” in a story on Thursday. Jaclyn Diaz wrote an entire story on pregnant mothers and vaccines without ever using the word “woman” or “women,” but using “pregnant people” or “pregnant person” seven times. Even the headline stayed vague: “Are You Pregnant? The CDC Really Wants You To […]
By Tim Graham ~ They say when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. When it comes to Vice President Kamala Harris, she can count on energetic admirers in the press who take on the task of making lemonade out of her lemons. Take Washington Post White House reporter Cleve Wootson Jr., who accentuated the […]
By Joseph Vazquez ~ The glowing predictions New York Times economist Paul Krugman made about ‘Bidenomics’ are falling flat, so he’s taken to attacking moderate Democrats and suggesting white working-class voters are racist. Krugman screeched in a new op-ed that the leftists in the Democratic Party are proposing what he called “sensible, popular policies” like […]
By Clay Waters ~ The New York Times has finally discovered that Australia has become a focus of criticism for its heavy-handed, futile fight to eliminate Covid: “Fight Against Covid Rewrites Australia’s Idea of Freedom – Half the country is locked down, but most are willing to sacrifice in pursuit of a freedom from fear.” […]
By Alexander Hall ~ Facebook openly announced its plans it uses to demote content, but at least it’s attempting to be transparent about the process. Right, Facebook? The release said it was “to share more detail on how content is distributed on Facebook.” But, in reality, it was about how content is not distributed on […]
By P.J. Gladnick ~ Well, congratulations Politico! It only took you nearly a year to finally recognize the validity of a major news story that most other media outlets already admitted was valid. The story in question was the October 2020 scoop by the New York Post about emails and other scandalous material found on […]
By Autumn Johnson ~ According to new reporting from The Wall Street Journal, the Facebook Oversight Board is calling for more transparency from the platform. The Board made the recommendation in response to The Journal’s critical reporting of the Big Tech giant and the affect Instagram has on young women and girls. As part of their […]
By Clay Waters ~ Do New York Times reporters not keep tabs on their own paper? Sunday’s Times featured Houston bureau chief J. David Goodman, “Texas Lawmakers, After Shift To Right, Plan More of Same.” It’s the latest entry in what has amounted to a series of random stories the Times has been constantly running […]
By P.J. Gladnick ~ Censorship? The press says: Hey, no problem! You might expect (in sane times) the press would be in favor of more freedom of speech. Instead, Politico is not only uncritically covering social media justifications for censorship, they also appear unfazed about the government getting into the Big Brother act as well. This was the message promulgated by “tech lobbying and […]
By Clay Waters ~ Wednesday’s New York Times ran a story on a new book by Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Robert Costa. “New Book Details Fears Trump Would Start War.” But national security correspondent Michael Schmidt glossed over the book’s biggest alleged bombshell: That the nation’s top military officer, Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the […]
By Clay Waters ~ The latest New York Times Sunday Magazine cover story “What Have Kids Lost?” consists of interviews with six education experts discussing how some American children have suffered through over a year and half without being inside a classroom because of Covid restrictions in some areas. The discussion was introduced by a reliably […]
By Alexander Hall ~ Facebook reportedly has a specific set of elite users who don’t have to follow the same censorship rules applied to average users. There’s a club of elites who don’t have to follow the same rules, and Facebook has reportedly hidden it until now. “A program known as XCheck has given millions […]
By Tim Graham ~ The liberal reporters on the “misinformation” beat and those “independent fact-checkers” are very aggressive about squashing information about COVID-19 that is either flat-out untrue or opposed to the (sometimes fluctuating) findings of government agencies. Sadly, these so-called guardians of truth aren’t as aggressive about narratives that mock anti-vaccine activists and COVID […]
