By Clay Waters ~ The New York Times was going all-out with its gas-stove “eliminationist rhetoric,” (to coin a phrase) putting this snotty headline over a front-page story Monday: “Gas Stoves Are Just Fine, Claims the Scientist Paid to Say So.” The story was written by investigative climate desk reporter Hiroko Tabuchi, who has shown herself […]
By Clay Waters ~ Under the heading “Tin Foil Hat Party,” a headline in the once-influential music magazine Rolling Stone spouted about “The Conspiracies Powering the GOP-Controlled House — How Republicans have put disinformation and falsehoods at the center of their governing agenda.” What are some of the ghastly things the GOP wants to do with […]
By Clay Waters ~ The federal government banning gas stoves? What a deluded notion, sneered the New York Times. Yet a short time later the paper published articles outlining alternatives to hazardous gas stoves. Thursday’s dismissive story by Elena Shao and Lisa Friedman appeared under the dismissive print-edition headline: “No, Biden Is Not Trying to Ban […]
By Clay Waters ~ New York Times media reporter Michael Grynbaum pouted about Florida’s governor and potential Republican presidential candidate thumbing his nose at the “national nonpartisan” (!) media, in “Can Ron DeSantis Avoid Meeting the Press?” on Wednesday. None of these people have the faintest idea that skipping a beating from the national press […]
By Clay Waters ~ The New York Times took advantage of the Republican kerfuffle around the days of voting it took to install House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy as House Speaker, to wedge in as many scary “far-right” style labels and frantic messaging as it could throughout several days of intense coverage. Carl Hulse and […]
By Clay Waters ~ For decades the liberal press, including the New York Times, used the Federal Bureau of Investigation as a symbol of the fears of oppressive government surveillance, investigating allegations that the agency surveilled civil rights leaders and radical anti-war groups during the Vietnam War. The Times hyped myriad other civil liberties concerns […]
By Clay Waters ~ The front page of Tuesday’s New York Times tried to stir sympathy for the mask-forever obsessives among the paper’s fans: “For Holdouts In Masks, Life Turns Lonelier.” It’s pretty gutsy for the mask-obsessed Times to suggest the mask-forever bunch are feeling isolated, given the Times strongly supported lockdown measures that kept old, […]
By Clay Waters ~ After November 2022’s Red Wave turned out to be a trickle and with COVID case numbers creeping up again, there is fear an emboldened “science”-loving left wing, egged on by a gullible press, will again try to impose draconian COVID-19 rules, including mask mandates. A Department of Health and Human Services […]
By Clay Waters ~ New York Times Supreme Court reporter Adam Liptak sounded his latest alarm about the dangerously conservative Supreme Court in Tuesday’s paper. The online headline deck: “An ‘Imperial Supreme Court’ Asserts Its Power, Alarming Scholars — Several new studies document the current court’s distinctive insistence on its dominance and the justices’ willingness […]
By Clay Waters ~ When The New York Times respectfully touts a man’s faith, he must be a leftist. Strange respect for religion reigned over the front page of Thursday’s paper for Sen. Raphael Warnock, the reverend who recently won reelection in Georgia runoff. The complimentary headline was “Warnock’s Rise Fueled by Pain, Faith and Flair.” The […]
By Clay Waters ~ A long, overheated New York Times Sunday editorial, “The Republican Party and the Scourge of Extremist Violence,” was part of the paper’s hysterical editorial series The Danger Within, condescendingly “urging readers to understand the danger of extremist violence.” (Translated from Times-speak: “Keep voting Democrat!” The paper extrapolated wildly from an appearance […]
By Clay Waters ~ New York Times climate reporter Cara Buckley issued a weirdly casual “news” profile of the “gentle” leader of a radical anti-humanity movement called Voluntary Human Extinction, datelined (naturally) Portland, Oregon, under the admirably honest headline: “Earth Now Has 8 Billion Humans. This Man Wishes There Were None.” So enthusiastic was Buckley […]
By Clay Waters ~ People on both sides of the political aisle have expressed concerns about President Biden’s mental acuity, but the New York Times says no worries, “Age is more than a number.” Reporter Sheryl Gay Stolberg wrote the puff piece for Sunday’s edition: “President Biden Is Turning 80. Experts Say Age Is More […]
By Clay Waters ~ The New York Times is not taking Donald Trump’s recent presidential run announcement well, judging by the latest psychobabble emanating from the paper. The latest is an interactive feature at nytimes.com: “Trump, the Black Hole and Me.” Yes, you can purge your anti-Trump emotions by typing them into a black void: […]
By Clay Waters ~ The New York Times devoted a 1,700-word story on Friday’s front page to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi stepping down from her Democratic leadership role after Republicans took back the House of Representatives. Congressional correspondent Carl Hulse proved his usual unctuous self, touting Pelosi as “the dominant political operator, legislative tactician and […]
By Clay Waters ~ New York Times technology reporter Kevin Roose, who consistently uses his column to nudge social media enterprises toward anti-conservative censorship, had a leftist take on entrepreneur and free-speech advocate Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter, in Sunday’s edition: “Pivot for Twitter: The ‘People’s Tool’ Has Now Become a Mogul’s Toy.” The online […]
By Clay Waters ~ New York Times congressional correspondent Jonathan Weisman injected charges of racism into the 2022 campaign’s late stages under a partisan headline: “Democrats Say Racism Is the Real Messaging in Republican Crime Ads.” Weisman predictably launched by portraying Republican crime concerns as a cynical “seize” of an issue before quickly inserting race. As […]
By Clay Waters ~ New York Times reporters Patricia Mazzei and Maggie Astor reported on Monday evening’s one and only debate in the Florida governor’s race, pitting sitting Republican Ron DeSantis against Democrat and former state governor Charlie Crist. But under the guise of fighting misinformation on abortion and transgender issues by Ron DeSantis, the […]
By Clay Waters ~ Ben Smith, former media columnist for the New York Times who recently launched the media site Semafor, plunged himself into his old paper’s current identity crisis, both in the eyes of Wall Street and its ultra-liberal readership. After laying out what the crisis means to its share price, Smith focused on the […]
By Clay Waters ~ It’s official: New York Times opinion columnist Charles Blow can find “white supremacy” everywhere, and that now includes the notorious leaked audio of Democratic Latino members of the Los Angeles city council making offensive remarks about blacks and Jews during a meeting on the city’s redistricting process. Blow began: I have a […]
By Clay Waters ~ New York Times technology reporter Kevin Roose, who shares a censorious streak with many of his tech colleagues, reacted with dismay on the news that space entrepreneur Elon Musk’s on-again, off-again courtship of social media platform Twitter is back on again, on Wednesday: “Elon Musk’s Twitter Will Be a Wild Ride.” […]
By Clay Waters ~ The front page of The New York Times Saturday Arts section featured a castigation of the new Marilyn Monroe “biopic.” Critic-at-large Amanda Hess’s insidious critique focused on a single scene of the film showing a “beatific, photorealistic fetus.” Why? Hess doesn’t come out and say it, but one suspects she fears such […]
By Clay Waters ~ In Thursday’s New York Times, reporters Reid Epstein and Alan Rappeport tried to paint Gov. Ron DeSantis as hypocritical for receiving federal assistance in the wake of the hugely damaging Hurricane Ian under the hostile headline “Ron DeSantis Pauses Political Bomb-Throwing as Hurricane Ian Hits.” As a powerful hurricane hammers Florida’s Gulf […]
By Clay Waters ~ Another day, another Ron DeSantis hit piece in a major newspaper. “Is Ron DeSantis the Future of the Republican Party?” by New York Times reporter Matt Flegenheimer is set to appear in the September 18 Sunday Magazine, posing the question: Will Florida’s governor throw his hat in the ring for president, […]
