Media Research Center Vice President Dan Gainor teased a soon-to-be-published MRC study proving Big Tech’s obsession with protecting President Joe Biden. Big Tech’s response was to censor people who criticized Biden. Gainor joined the April 20 edition of Tucker Carlson Tonight on Fox News. “Tonight, the Media Research Center has new reporting on the scope of Big Tech’s efforts to keep your opinions hidden,” Fox News host Tucker Carlson said. Carlson pointed out that the MRC “found more than 640 examples of bans, deleted content and other speech restrictions placed on those who criticize Joe Biden on social media.” Platforms...

Sunday's Politico listed a number of reasons why freshly fired Chris Cuomo embarrassed his network, CNN. However there is one really big item that has been left off the list. Here is what Politico's Tara Palmeri listed and see if you can guess what she notably left off the list. I'll give you a hint, it was a blatant example of fake news for which Cuomo was widely mocked.

Andrew Cuomo’s close aide apparently used a trick in an attempt to impugn one of the former governor’s sexual harassment accusers, the New York Post reported Friday. “Cuomo’s right-hand aide Melissa DeRosa recruited a top MTA official as a spy to secretly record a phone conversation with an ex-executive staffer identified as ‘Kaitlin’ who subsequently became one of the governor’s accusers,” the article said.

CNN Fires Chris Cuomo Amid Inquiry Into His Efforts to Aid His Brother The network said it had “terminated him, effective immediately,” a move that came days after a lawyer for a former colleague accused the host of sexual misconduct. ... On Wednesday, Debra S. Katz, a prominent employment lawyer informed CNN of a client with an allegations of sexual misconduct against Chris Cuomo. Ms. Katz said in a statement on Saturday that the allegations against the anchor, which was made by a former junior colleague at another network was "unrelated to the Gov. Andrew Cuomo matter." [...] Ms. Katz...

“Blood is not thicker than morality,” radio host and author Laura Schlessinger once noted. This comes to mind when pondering how Fox News’ normally astute Tucker Carlson, who generally exhibits more philosophical depth than is the television news norm, stumbled a bit last Tuesday night. At issue was a Tucker Carlson Tonight segment about TV host Chris Cuomo’s “indefinite suspension” from CNN for using his press connections to help his brother, ex-NY governor Andrew Cuomo, craft a defense against the sexual misconduct allegations that ended his political career. Carlson had much to say that was true: Chris Cuomo is a...

CNN on Saturday terminated one of its top anchors, Chris Cuomo, after having indefinitely suspended him earlier this week. The suspension was announced on Tuesday to review Chris Cuomo’s conduct over materials that suggested he was more involved than he had admitted in trying to help his brother, then-New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, amid sexual harassment allegations against the former governor earlier this year. The materials were released on Nov. 29 by New York’s attorney general, Letitia James, whose office found that Andrew Cuomo sexually harassed at least 11 women while he was governor. CNN was reviewing the new materials...

NEW YORK, NY—The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics is reporting a drastic rise in the unemployment rate among brothers in the Cuomo family, saying it has increased to a record 100%. "This is unprecedented among Cuomos," said BLS Commissioner Bob Labor. "Contributing factors may include a struggling economy, as well as the fact that they're both corrupt skeezy pervs." Experts expect the Cuomo unemployment rate to tick down later next year when they release their bestselling tell-all books about being corrupt skeezy pervs and run for public office.

New York (CNN)CNN said Saturday that anchor Chris Cuomo has been "terminated" by the network, "effective immediately."

CNN confirmed on Saturday that it had terminated network anchor Chris Cuomo following documents newly revealed earlier this week that indicated that he had played a larger role than previously known in assisting his brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), during his sexual harassment scandal.

A former news producer who accused Chris Cuomo of sexual harassment has dismissed CNN's internal investigation into the anchor's support for his beleaguered brother - while the network has seen ratings soar since their star talking head was suspended. Cuomo, 51, was placed on an indefinite suspension on Tuesday - a day after the New York attorney general published damaging information. The documents on Monday showed that Cuomo was far more involved than he had admitted to viewers and CNN executives in helping his brother, Governor Andrew Cuomo, defend himself from accusations of sexual harassment and assault.

Buried in New York Attorney General Letitia James document-dump on former Governor Andrew Cuomo's career-ending sex-abuse scandal are text messages from the Democrat's younger brother, CNN host Chris Cuomo. The younger Cuomo, it turns out, told top Andrew enabler Melissa DeRosa that he got actor Alec Baldwin to help spin the story in Andrew's favor. ---snip--- This revelation is hardly the most surprising or substantive of the treasure trove that's emerged from Albany over the past year, but it is a telling one. Even after Andrew Cuomo enacted a policy that killed upwards of 10,000 seniors in nursing homes, lied...

Federal authorities are probing the sexual harassment claims against former Gov. Andrew Cuomo that forced him from office, The Post has learned. The stunning development is contained in a legal services contract signed in October and released by the state Comptroller’s Office on Thursday in response to a Freedom of Information Law request filed by The Post. The contract notes previously revealed Department of Justice investigations into the Cuomo administration’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, its cover-up of nursing home deaths and Cuomo’s $5.1 coronavirus memoir. But it adds, “DOJ has also undertaken an inquiry related to sexual harassment claims...

Chris Cuomo could return to CNN as early as next month following his suspension for secretly helping his brother, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, try to counter the sexual harassment scandal that made him quit, the network’s chief media correspondent predicted. During an appearance on CNN’s “New Day” program Wednesday, Brian Stelter said it was a “complicated situation” because despite widespread outrage, “a lot of viewers … love Chris Cuomo and they want to see him back on the air.” “I think the bottom line is, [Chris] Cuomo is on the bench for now,” he said.

Embattled CNN primetime host Chris Cuomo had become a pariah among his colleagues before he was suspended from the network over his involvement in brother Andrew's defense from sexual misconduct claims, it has now emerged. The cable news network on Tuesday evening announced that Chris Cuomo, 51, was suspended indefinitely, with Anderson Cooper extending his hour-long show to two hours, to cover Chris's 9pm slot. The news came a day after the New York Attorney General's Office released transcripts and exhibits, showing that the TV presented provided greater assistance to his older brother than initially acknowledged both to his employer...

Media Research Center Vice President Dan Gainor went on Fox Business to dismantle disgraced liberal CNN host Chris Cuomo for his blatant violation of journalistic ethics concerning his brother. CNN had suspended Cuomo indefinitely for abusing his position to coordinate on political strategy with his scandal-ridden brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. In addition, records released by the New York Attorney General’s office indicated that Chris Cuomo wielded his media “‘sources’” and “‘other journalists’” to investigate the women who had accused his brother of sexual harassment, according to USA Today. Gainor summed up Chris Cuomo’s malfeasance during the Dec....

In 1969, psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross wrote that there are five stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. Fifty years later, anti-Trump journalists have been experiencing the first four simultaneously since Wednesday, when former Special Counsel Robert Mueller testified before two House committees. The Trump-hating media can’t come to terms with the final stage – acceptance of their grief. And that will elude them even if President Trump is reelected and stays in the White House until 2025. Journalists wrote and broadcast countless stories saying Hillary Clinton would defeat Trump in the 2016 presidential election. Many have never been...

FULL TITLE: Dan Gainor: Media decide Trump is wrong on Iran — whether he strikes back or not. Plus, more press missteps Damned if you do. Damned if you don’t. Welcome to the media’s Iran coverage where President Donald Trump is never really right — whether he responds militarily to Iran or opts not to do so. Iran, a theocratic loony bin that is the world’s No. 1 terror state, shot down a military drone this week that was worth at least $130 million. While it was flying over international waters. What followed was a high-speed, condensed version of media...

Journalism got a lot smaller last week. The media lost two of their biggest names – author and journalist Tom Wolfe and Interview Magazine. Wolfe, who wrote “The Right Stuff,” spent decades making people appear larger than life. Interview, founded by pop culture icon Andy Warhol, used its larger-than-normal format to make its subjects grow in stature. The industry is diminished, left with its war against President Trump as journalists battle over whether an informant sent to spy on the Trump campaign is actually a “spy.” That is part of their larger anti-Trump crusade, but it’s also tied to how...

This is too good not to share. MRC’s Dan Gainor wrote for Foxnews.com on the liberal tendency to describe the Republicans with the term “clown car.” He found that since January 1, MSNBC hosts and their guests have dragged out the phrase 38 times. Hardball host Chris Matthews by far the worst repeat offender, with 29 mentions since the beginning of the year -

News by its very nature is unpredictable. Too bad many journalists don’t seem to understand that fact. Ever since gasoline prices began a wild ride in 2004, the media have been obsessed with predicting future energy prices. Gasoline, we were told, would hit $5 a gallon. Or $6, or $7. Or maybe even $12 or $15. The predictions were consistently wrong. ABC, NBC and CBS, who can seldom get current events correct, are even worse guessing future news. In fact, for most of 2008, network news stories that predicted oil or gas prices were wrong nearly two-thirds of the time...
