By Dave Andrusko It is my tradition as we approach the end of a year, I revisit some older posts with a mind to updating them. They usually require only modest nips and tucks because (alas in most cases) the underlying anti-life and anti-President Trump narratives are the same—or worse! A while back I wrote …

By Heather Moon Twitter’s censorship crusade against President Donald Trump and his campaign pressed on this week. The site labeled videos from Fox News and One America News Network. It also labeled Peter Navarro’s report on election irregularities, and the Dominion Voting Systems audit report from Antrim County, Michigan, among other tweets. The president’s Twitter …

By Corinne Weaver Twitter’s relentless censorship siege continues against President Donald Trump and his campaign. The site restricted video clips from prominent conservatives, Fox News, Fox Business, and at least one congressman. The president’s Twitter account and the account for his campaign, @TeamTrump, have been censored, suppressed, and limited 486 times since May 31, 2018. Since Dec. 7, …

By Rich Noyes Editor’s note. This is excerted from a Newsbusters post and is reposted with permission. Every four years since 2000, the online opinion site Slate lets readers see how their staff has voted in the presidential election. It’s a commendable exercise in transparency, especially in a profession where many journalists invariably promote liberal …

By Jorge Bonilla Univision senior anchor Jorge Ramos has, yet again, found occasion to milk his performative ejection from then-candidate Donald Trump’s 2015 Iowa press conference. This time, Ramos uses it as the basis from which to make the ridiculous assertion that the liberal media wasn’t hostile enough in covering Donald Trump. Once again, Ramos’ detached rantings …

By Joseph Norris CNN hack Chris Cuomo took the time during the Tuesday evening broadcast of Cuomo Prime Time to argue that Trump deserved the atrocious media treatment of him over the past four years. During the latter half of the show, the partisan anchor brought on former ABC News host Sam Donaldson, who endorsed several Democrats in …

By Corinne Weaver Twitter didn’t stop censorship for last week’s Thanksgiving holiday. Algorithms were hard at work flagging and labeling tweets from President Donald Trump and his campaign.  Twitter slapped labels on 63 Trump tweets since Nov. 23. When Trump tweeted: “Big Tech and the Fake News Media have partnered to Suppress. Freedom of the Press …

By Tim Graham   Editor’s note. This ran at Newsbusters on Thanksgiving but it is so on-point, not just now, but (alas) going forward that I thought it important to run. On the Turkey Day edition of the NewsBusters Podcast, executive editor Tim Graham is carving up the so-called “independent fact-checkers” and how they often tilt …

By Tim Graham Politico’s chief Washington correspondent Ryan Lizza defined himself in President Trump’s briefing room as a furious competitor for Rudest Journalist. He asked press secretary Kayleigh McEnany “Does President Trump believe that it was a good thing that the South lost the Civil War?” And when the official count of coronavirus deaths reached …

By Mark Finkelstein Despite careful, multiple, readings of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s statement [below] regarding President Trump’s challenges to the election results, we were unable to divine therein a single f-bomb. But CNN’s John Berman would purport to powers exceeding ours. On this morning’s New Day, Berman somehow saw an f-word that we missed. Opening …

By Corinne Weaver [November 9] Through its rampant censorship, Twitter has done its best to silence President Donald Trump. However, neither former Vice President Joe Biden nor his campaign have received any labels or filters of any kind. Election Day brought with it a huge spike in Twitter’s censorship. The company’s arsenal used against Team …

By Dave Andrusko I’d be fibbing if I didn’t acknowledge upfront how much I admire pro-life Republicans who refuse to be browbeaten and/or intimidated by pro-abortion Democrat partisan hacks masquerading as “hosts” for news programs. (You would think colleagues might raise an eyebrow when a former Bill Clinton White House Communications Director  unabashedly pushes the Democrat …
