NPR forced to apologize after boosting Media Matters' lie that National Review editor used 'racial slur'
NPR has apologized after boosting the Media Matters lie that National Review's Rich Lowry used a racial slur on Megyn Kelly's show when he fumbled over the words "migrants" and "immigrants," making some launch the false accusation that he said the n-word in a September 15 show with Kelly. The outlet came out with a story dedicated to apologizing for originally headlining, "Conservative editor-in-chief appears to use racial slur to refer to Haitian migrants" after Lowry, who even addressed the word mix-up prior to the story getting drafted. The outlet, after recognizing its mistake, changed the headline to "Conservative editor-in-chief says mispronunciation led to accusations of using slur." (Post Millenial 10/5/24) READ MORE>>>>>

New York Times Editorial Board Calls for Biden to Drop Out of Presidential Race
The New York Times editorial board is urging President Biden to step aside and make way for a new Democratic challenger to former president Donald Trump in the aftermath of Biden’s debate disaster. “President Biden has repeatedly and rightfully described the stakes in this November’s presidential election as nothing less than the future of American democracy,” the editorial board wrote in an essay published on Friday evening. “Mr. Biden has said that he is the candidate with the best chance of taking on this threat of tyranny and defeating it. His argument rests largely on the fact that he beat Mr. Trump in 2020. That is no longer a sufficient rationale for why Mr. Biden should be the Democratic nominee this year,” it adds.

“But to hire somebody for supposedly $300,000 a year, who’s going to be – not only an election denier, which she was after the 2020 election – but somebody who worked and was calling people in Michigan trying to get them not to certify the vote. So, she was an election-denying enabler. To me, that’s a bridge too far.” |
CNN’s Chris Wallace Roasts NBC Execs’ ‘Pretty Dumb’ Decision to Hire Ronna McDaniel
After fierce backlash, NBC parted ways with the former chair of the Republican National Committee after she lasted just half a scaramucci in the role. Wallace appeared on CNN’s Laura Coates Live on Wednesday to offer his thoughts, but not before Laura Coates played a clip of him grilling McDaniel in July about the 2020 election. McDaniel told Wallace the contest had “lots of problems” as she echoed former President Donald Trump’s false claims of election fraud.(Media-Ite 3/27/24) READ MORE>>>>> |
MSNBC Staff Join Flood of Complaints Over NBC Hiring GOP’s Ronna McDaniel
NBC News and MSNBC are facing a wave of backlash after hiring former Republican National Committee chairwoman Ronna McDaniel as an on-air contributor on Friday, with some staffers speaking out publicly against the move. McDaniel has repeatedly attacked the network in the past, calling their journalists “propagandists.” She also promoted false claims of election fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

“As columnists we are held to strict standards of factuality and truth, and are expected to have a fundamental understanding of our democracy,” Kabas continued. “McDaniel has proven time and again she adheres to none of those values, and lacks that very basic understanding. |
Ex-RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel Hired As NBC And MSNBC Political Contributor
As a new on-air contributor for the NBC News and MSNBC platforms, NBC recruited Ronna McDaniel, the former chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, the company said on Friday. Following her formal resignation from the Republican National Committee (RNC) earlier this month at the alleged request of 2024 Republican nominee Donald Trump, McDaniel was met with criticism from a loud segment of the conservative base who felt that she was too connected to the party’s establishment wing. Others had also labeled her as a “RINO.” RINO is an abbreviation which means “Republican In Name Only.” (OANN 3/22/24) READ MORE>>>>>

NBC News reporter says Trump campaign stopped him from covering New Hampshire event
NBC News reporter Vaughn Hillyard said former President Trump's campaign stopped him from covering a New Hampshire event on Sunday – but the campaign said it doesn't "bar reporters based on their reporting" and simply scrapped a network pool. Hillyard was serving as a pool reporter representing five television networks, a longstanding practice in which TV news organizations take turns sending a single reporter to cover campaign events when there isn’t space for multiple crews.

Trump appears to side with Musk, tech allies in debate over foreign workers roiling his supporters
President-elect Donald Trump appears to be siding with Elon Musk and his other backers in the tech industry as a dispute over immigration visas has divided his supporters. Trump, in an interview with the New York Post on Saturday, praised the use of visas to bring skilled foreign workers to the U.S. The topic has become a flashpoint within his conservative base. “I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them,” Trump said. (Washington Times 12/28/24) READ MORE>>>>>

How Page Six Became the Most Feared Gossip Column in the World
The gossip column is dead. With one exception. In November of 1976, right after Rupert Murdoch bought the New York Post, he tasked James Brady with executing his broad concept for a full page of short news items filed by a variety of contributors and edited with a consistent, and consistently cheeky, voice. Brady and a few stringers quickly pulled together what Brady named Page Six because that’s the page where the column initially ran. Nearly 50 years after its debut, Page Six is the only gossip column still standing among those it competed with back then. It is also the most successful original brand to emerge from the Post, as well known as the paper itself; in the past week alone, Page Six appeared in an answer on Jeopardy! and figured into a plot line on Only Murders in the Building.

‘New York Compost’: Trump Booster Laura Loomer Flips Out On ‘Rupert Murdoch’s NY Post’ For Covering Unflattering Poll
Pro-Trump conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer slammed the New York Post this week for covering a recent poll that was not very flattering to Donald Trump. “No the hell we do not. This is some more bullshit from Rupert Murdoch’s @nypost. Rupert Murdoch is on the record saying he wants to “make Trump a non person”. You can’t trust anything about Trump that comes out of any of his publications. It’s all trash,” Loomer wrote on X/Twitter, adding: New York Compost. (Alex Griffing/MediaIte 12/22/23) READ MORE>>>>>

In the summer of 2005, Media Research Center launched NewsBusters, a website "dedicated to exposing & combating liberal media bias," in cooperation with Matthew Sheffield, a now-former conservative blogger (who now works at Salon.com) involved in the CBS Killian documents story. NewsBusters is styled as a rapid-response blog site that contains posts by MRC editors to selected stories in mass media. Although the site is advertised chiefly as a conservative site, it frequently defends neoconservatives as well. The site highlights journalists and non-journalists (writers, musicians, producers, scientists, etc.) perceived as having liberal viewpoints. Tim Graham is Executive Editor of NewsBusters and host of the NewsBusters Podcast. His career at the MRC began in February 1989 as associate editor of MediaWatch, the monthly newsletter of the MRC before the Internet era
October 30, 2024: Newsbusters reported: 98% of ‘Comedy’ Show Campaign Jokes Target TrumpIt may not seem too surprising when the late night comedians double as Democratic fundraisers that 98 percent of their Trump-Harris jokes target Trump, but that is still a mind-boggling number. The CMPA found that in 2016, Trump was the recipient of 78 percent of their jokes, virtually identical to the 77 percent that they told about Mitt Romney in 2012. Even during the Biden years, the hosts could bring themselves to make “Biden is old” quips, but for the comedians, this election is no laughing matter and nothing that could harm Harris is to be discussed.
Ed Note: If it were the other way around, Newsbusters would very likely not publish the info. As it is, though, the clowns in the right wing and essentially make themselves look like cartoons.

Newsweek: inglorious path from brilliant journalism to yellow press
This year marks the 90th anniversary of the American news magazine Newsweek. It is unquestionably one of the most famous magazines not only in the US but in the world. It is the weekly magazine that has been the winner of the most prestigious awards in the publishing industry. But does its glorious past mean it is still respectable? I would like to say no. Why is that? For decades American quality journalism had a principle: information on the pages of a publication or a television screen must have two sources of verification. In this way, a high level of credibility was maintained. Newsweek magazine has long since abandoned this principle. It has repeatedly been embroiled in horrific scandals that have proven that the once-solid publication cannot be considered as such. It has too eagerly embraced the tabloid principle and chased every sensation.
