First 15 minutes devoted to CNN's treatment of Karoline Levitt when she wouldn't be silent about Tapper and Bash's obvious bias, and how this helped Trump.

CNN host Kasie Hunt cut off Trump spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt Monday morning, and abruptly ended the interview as soon as Leavitt cited examples of CNN anchor Jack Tapper’s extreme bias against the presumptive Republican nominee for president. “You come on my show, you respect my colleagues,” Hunt later wrote on X. “I don’t care what side of the aisle you stand on, as my track record clearly shows.” In response, Leavitt wrote: “You cut off my microphone for bringing up the debate moderator’s history of anti-Trump lies. This proved our point that President Trump will not be treated fairly on...

Who really owns the paper? I’ve seen this before, but never at such a high-profile level. Journalists, including Bari Weiss, were squeezed out at the New York Times and targeted by campaigns coordinated by their colleagues with outside radical leftist outlets like Huffington Post, Vox, and The New Republic, but this time it went bigger than ever before. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos decided that his pet paper, The Washington Post, needed a change of management and brought in vets from the UK’s Telegraph. The Post’s wokes and some around the media decided that wouldn’t fly and began running hit pieces...

CNN presidential debate moderator Jake Tapper’s show is at the center of a defamation suit brought by a consulting company which alleges that the network and one of its reporters lied about the company’s work.The network’s defense: CNN did not intend to harm and its language was “opinion or ambiguous.”Tapper is set to co-host the first presidential debate next Thursday which is being hosted by his network. The host has come under scrutiny from former President Donald Trump, who is set to participate in the debate, for his partiality— calling him “Fake [Jake] Tapper.”But, as the well-known CNN personality gears...

MSNBC host Symone Sanders scolded her guests for using the ‘illegal’ immigrants on her show this week. While discussing the recent murder of Americans at the hands of those who have come into the U.S. illegally, Sanders seemed to be more concerned for the perpetrators, not the victims.

Researchers have uncovered what many Wikipedia users have long feared — that it's slanted against conservatives. A study from the Manhattan Institute, a right-leaning think tank, says it has uncovered 'evidence of political bias embedded in Wikipedia articles.' Donald Trump and other former right-wing presidents are presented in a negative light, the study says, while Barack Obama and other liberal leaders are puffed with positive write-ups.

Before we get into this abysmal segment, let’s not forget that this network is doing its job: keeping liberal blood pressures low by feeding the sheep grade-A liberal propaganda. It’s not a shock that MSNBC host Joy Reid and Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) would label the rape of a minor by an illegal alien as “fearmongering.” I’m not sure it is, given that it’s true. An illegal alien was busted for raping a 13-year-old in Queens, New York, this week (via ABC 7 NY): A 25-year-old Ecuadorian has been arrested in connection with the "horrific" rape of a 13-year-old girl...

CBS News was forced to remove a video claiming that Joe Biden wandering off at the G7 Summit in Italy was an example of a “cheap fake.” The White House claimed the video was taken out of context, accusing Republicans of creating cheap fake videos to show he has cognitive problems.

Journalist Ramin Setoodeh, who spoke with Trump six times for his new book, claims that the former president "had a vacant look on his face" trying to remember him during a follow-up interview

UPDATE: Federal court grants Biden DOJ request to move $30 million Ashli Babbitt wrongful death lawsuit from Ashli's home in San Diego to Washington DC. The case was just assigned to Judge Jia Cobb, who was appointed to the bench by President Biden in 2021.

A recent analysis conducted by The Economist suggests The New York Time’s bestseller list is politically biased against conservatives, a point many on the right have long argued. Books released by conservative publishers are, on average, 7 percent less likely to make it onto the paper’s weekly bestseller list, even if the books sell at a comparable rate to work released from other publishers, the analysis found. While big names on the right don’t face as much of a challenge getting on the list, lesser known authors that are right of center do, The Economist notes. Books that are not...

CV NEWS FEED // A day after CatholicVote reported that The Hill had published a column identifying a flag of the Sacred Heart of Jesus as “a symbol associated with the Christian right wing, specifically used to protest Pride,” the publication erased that claim from the column without noting the change. The practice of editing out controversial passages without acknowledging the correction in an editorial note is commonly known as “stealth-editing.” Nick Robertson originally wrote in his column: “The Sacred Heart of Jesus flag is a symbol associated with the Christian right wing, specifically used to protest Pride.” As of...

ransomnote: 10 minute video interview with former CIA agent Frank Snepp circa 1983. TRANSCRIPT BELOW.On X Jan 2, 2024 TRANSCRIPT BEGINS~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Frank Snepp: Once again I want to make it perfectly clear that we were not hiring these reporters, they were not operating as our spies or as our dupes. But, in a war situation, when there are so few sources of information, a reporter may rely on a CIA contact, and he becomes vulnerable.In Saigon, if I planted a piece information with a reporter, I would ordinarily then try to create an environment in which he could not check the...

George Stephanopoulos, the former Bill Clinton staffer who is now the political director of ABC News for some reason, said recently that it is journalistic malpractice for a reporter to do a live TV interview with Trump. You can tell that Stephanopoulos is greatly worried that Trump will win because he has increased the number and severity of his attacks on Trump in recent months. He has even lectured his audience about the importance of the election. FOX News reports:

O’Keefe Media Group released a new video on Wednesday, exposing the mainstream media with Nick Cirone, a producer and booker from ABC News’ Good Morning America, who gives a tell-all on how they purposefully give Biden and the Democrats good press but smear and slant their coverage of Trump and “right-wing crazies” negatively. This is something that we all know is true, but they refuse to admit it. Even Cirone seemingly has no idea that what they’re doing is wrong, claiming that “the truth, very overwhelmingly, has a liberal bias.” Good Morning America is hosted by former Bill Clinton henchman...

Before getting to that, let me be a Lying Skank Jen Psaki and Circle Back to turmoil at the Washington Post. I've quoted some of this but some of this is new (unless you saw it on other websites, which you probably did).As you know, the Washington Post employees are revolting. But the new news is that they're also rebelling.When Washington Post publisher Will Lewis and new interim executive editor Matt Murray met with staff Monday, the newsroom was still coming to terms with the abrupt exit of Sally Buzbee, who had led the paper since May 2021."Everyone was pretty...

The pro-Palestinian protests over the last month, where tens of thousands in the US have chanted for the end of Israel, are not merely a story of organic rage. They are also funded in large part by an uber-wealthy American-born tech entrepreneur, Neville Roy Singham, and his wife, Jodie Evans. [cut] “I decided that at my age and extreme privilege, the best thing I could do was to give away most of my money in my lifetime,” said Singham, now 69, in a statement after selling his company (for $785 million), according to a New York Times investigation in August....

When NBC went on the air on Thursday for their special coverage of former President Donald Trump’s conviction in New York, legal analyst Laura Jarrett touched on the reaction the verdict received from his supporters. The only problem for NBC was that the footage they showed alongside Jarrett of a hysterical Trump supporter who could be heard yelling and screaming throughout her report was of a Jimmy Kimmel-employed liberal actor. The man’s name is Tony Barbieri, who does a bit for ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live! where he calls himself Jake Byrd and travels across the country acting like a caricatured...

In a bizarre and disturbing segment of MSNBC, legal analyst Andrew Weissmann admitted he had a “man crush” on Judge Juan Merchan, who is overseeing Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg‘s criminal case against former President Donald Trump. Weissmann was a federal prosecutor for over ten years before becoming FBI general counsel. He was also lead prosecutor on Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team, which headed the bogus investigation into the Russia/Trump Hoax “collusion,” which wasted millions of dollars of taxpayer money. While Weissman often has trouble hiding his disdain for Trump, his feelings for Judge Merchan appear to be bordering on...

Nothing warms the cockles of our hearts more than witnessing a good old-fashioned karma butt-kicking. And the fact that it’s happening to the regime propaganda artists over at Media Matters is just the icing on the cake. Media Matters is on the skids, laying off some of their most die-hard comrades. As if that weren’t juicy enough, we’re now learning that one of those Marxist maniacs—a woman who routinely “celebrated” Tucker Carlson’s departure from Fox News, even giggling and cheering online about the anniversary of his firing—has just been let go. The woman, Kat Abu, is no longer with Media...
