The elitist media are wildly inconsistent on President Trump, except for one thing: the coverage has to be negative. So this week, it swung from "Trump's about to destroy Iranian civilization" to "Trump chickened out again" when they announced a ceasefire. Whichever direction Trump takes -- left or right, backward or forward -- it's always wrong.
Executive Editor Tim Graham and Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro welcome Daily Wire’s Isabel Brown to discuss how she managed to unintentionally trigger the Cackling Coven of ABC’s The View into an absolute meltdown by encouraging women to get married and have kids during a CPAC panel. Brown dismantles The View co-hosts and calls out their hypocrisy since most were happily married, and all…
On "International Fact Checking Day," we discuss how PolitiFact can't find any Democrats saying false things with Matthew Hoy, author of the new book "Fact-Checking Frauds: How Fact-Checkers Distract, Deceive, and Distort Our Politics." What tactics do they use? There's obvious selection bias -- in targets, in fact claims, and in expert testimony.
CNN host Jake Tapper claimed "Every reporter that I know wants the United States to succeed in every way." But two London CNN bigwigs were photographed schmoozing with the Iranians at their embassy in London, and it didn't look like they were there to ask tough questions at the anniversary party for their Islamo-fascist revolution.
500 hospices in a 3-mile stretch in LA County, and taxpayers are footing the bill while fraudulent operators skate for over a year. Even the CA AG admits it’s “a work in progress.” Where’s the media outrage?
If journalists pose as guardians of the public interest, why do they get on the wrong side of 80-20 issues? Our study of the network newscasts and the Big Four News Apps found great disinterest in the "Save ACT," which would require proof of citizenship of voter registration and voter ID at the polls. It's overwhelmingly popular -- and being ignored.
Kristen Welker's softball Sunday interview on NBC with the Iranian foreign minister reminded everyone again of an anti-American double standard. The liberals inside newsrooms put enormous pressure on interviewers to question Trump fiercely, while representatives of mass-murdering Islamist regimes get open-ended softballs.
CNN's Brian Stelter wasn't "Facts First" when he tweeted: "Pete Hegseth reverting to his fake-news routine in today's Pentagon presser." What's fake? "The press only wants to make the president look bad." Does Stelter watch CNN? Jim Acosta also trashed Hegseth as spewing "Fox MAGA talking points to bash the press."
NBC gave Iran’s foreign minister ~40 mins to play “Baghdad Bob 2.0.” Iran’s Supreme Leader likely was dead by then — yet he denied it all in that interview.
The administration’s own declassified white papers show the strategy: Iran, Venezuela, Cuba—all moves aimed at China. Yet much of the press barely covers the reasoning, focusing instead on drama instead of strategy.
