Twitter permanently suspended top conservative investigative reporter Paul Sperry on Wednesday. Sperry is the first reporter to identify Eric Ciaramella as the CIA “whistleblower” behind the first junk impeachment of President Trump. Paul Sperry also reported on Ciaramella’s plot to remove President Trump from office. Sperry’s Twitter suspension came after Gateway Pundit was banned by Twitter two weeks ago and Project Veritas was banned last week. We reached out to Paul Sperry tonight. Here is what he told us about his suspension. Paul Sperry: There were no warnings. No rules were broken They just don’t like my content because of...

Snapchat’s editorial team has complete control over Discover content. They carefully hand-select radical leftist propaganda to be placed right before your child's eyes.This article shows sexual content inappropriate for children.You saw Twitter suppress and censor the Hunter Biden laptop scandal. You know Google conspired with NBC to try and deplatform The Federalist. You watched how after election day big tech oligarchs purged conservatives from social media and colluded to destroy Parler. What you probably haven’t heard much about is Snapchat. Why? Adults aren’t really on the app. A 2020 study found Snapchat is the most popular social media among U.S....

Back when Parler was first taking off, I warned that its app-based dependency meant that two companies, Apple and Google, can eliminate it anytime they like. It was only a matter of time. The transition from desktops and laptops to Android and IOS devices mean that users are operating in a walled garden run by two very lefty companies. Those companies can do with the garden what they please. Those users who choose to jailbreak their devices have more options, but most don't. Conservatives can try to distribute the knowledge more widely and encourage that kind of self-empowerment. But the...

"In the great debate of the past two decades over freedom versus control of the network, China was largely right and the United States was largely wrong." So write Jack Goldsmith and Andrew Keane Woods, law professors at Harvard and the University of Arizona, respectively, in The Atlantic. And they seem to mind, as their next sentence indicates: "Significant monitoring and speech control are inevitable components of a mature and flourishing internet, and governments must play a large role in these practices to ensure that the internet is compatible with a society's norms and values." So much for the First...

Project Veritas has obtained a newly leaked document from Google that appears to show a Google employee and member of Google “transparency-and-ethics” group calling conservative and libertarian commentators, including Dennis Prager and Ben Shapiro, “nazis.” Project Veritas received this document after the release of its investigation into Google through the “Be Brave” campaign at VeritasTips@protonmail.com. Other big tech insiders can contact Project Veritas HERE. The email apparently was sent as part of the Google “transparency-and-ethics” group internal communications and suggests that content from PragerU, Jordan Peterson, and Ben Shapiro should be disabled from the “suggestion feature.” “…if we understand that...

YouTube just added an "information panel" to all my videos about climate change.We at Stossel TV do weekly videos on many controversial topics, but apparently YouTube thinks climate change is special.The information panel seems benign -- just a link to a Wikipedia page about global warming -- and YouTube puts it on all climate change videos.But Wikipedia's page was captured by activists. It's biased in favor of desperate alarmism. You'd have to read carefully to know that the billions we're spending now to fight climate change will make little difference.The YouTube information panel doesn't mention the Climategate scandal in which...

Many conservatives were in mourning Thursday after news broke of the death of Fox News mastermind Roger Ailes. In a statement, Media Research Center President Brent Bozell stated that “the Left would command a monopoly control of the so-called "news" media but for the Fox News Channel, and FNC would not exist but for him.” But for NBC, it was a time to tear down what he did for conservative media and politics in general. “The coroner says Ailes died from complications related to a head injury that he suffered after a fall in his home in Florida,” announced Anchor...

The liberal media took Senator John McCain’s warning of a dictator Donald Trump during Sunday’s Meet the Press on NBC and ran with it as the biggest story of the day, seeming to use it as a vindication of their smears since day one. “Is that over the top? Or is there a concern,” ABC’s Jon Karl inquired to Senator Rand Paul on This Week. While on CBS’s Face the Nation, moderator John Dickerson worried that Trump supporters would take it upon themselves and violently “act” against the “enemy” press. Karl’s statement was actually more pointed and seemed to suggest...

Conservative and center-right columnists often have to do far more digging than their liberal counterparts, simply because overwhelmingly left-leaning beat journalists, aka "Democrats with bylines," provide such unbalanced reporting on current events on a daily basis. Fortunately, the Washington Post's Marc Thiessen did the entirely necessary work of rummaging through available information about federal court nominations in 1988 and 1992. Any beat reporter could have done the same thing, but either didn't, or decided not to report what was found. What Thiessen unearthed makes an argument-ending mockery of Vice President Joe Biden's claim, made in a Monday evening tweet, that when he...

So it's come to this. During the past week, the Associated Press reported today, "Federal health officials," meaning "the Obama administration," began "urging" (i.e., "telling") counselors and navigators around the country to stop using paper applications for Obamacare coverage, "because of concerns those applications would not be processed in time." It seems that either Team Obama or AP (my money is on AP) doesn't mind risking criticism for waiting to let this news out until a weather- and sports-dominated Saturday. It's apparently okay to keep those who don't know any better, i.e., those who went to the trouble of printing...

Maybe the folks running the HealthCare.gov call centers don't have an enemies list. Instead, based on the experience of Fox News's Jim Angle, it might be an enemies directory, with anyone they're aware of in the media and perhaps other organizations included therein. That's what one almost has to think based on the experience Angle relayed via Twitter Friday (HT Twitchy; individual Angle tweets are here, here, and here): The body of Angle's report was also important, because it showed how another aspect of President Obama's core promise to the Americans people — this time, it was "If you like...

To: Huffington Post WHEREAS, Greg Gutfeld has repeatedly polluted the Huffington Post with his reactionary, far-right "humor", WHEREAS, Greg Gutfeld's "jokes" are not funny and add nothing to the progressive conversation at Arianna Huffington's wonderful site, LET IT BE RESOLVED that we the undersigned hereby ask that Mr. Gutfeld be removed from the Huffington Post and never allowed to post there again.

Oppositionist New Conservatives, Conservators, and the Republicans have appealed to the international community regarding, as they say, the authorities' pressure on the media. The main accent was made on the TV company Mze's prime-time talk show "On the verge of choice", which is going to be closed on Friday. The MPs are calling on the international organizations and the public to defend freedom of expression.
