A tale of two surveys, one by Pew and one by Gallup, one on media bias and one on media trust. Journalists in the United States differ markedly from the general public in their views of “bothsidesism” – whether journalists should always strive to give equal coverage to all sides of an issue – according to a recent…

The Ministry of Information is hard at work. The adoption of the term “disinformation” has inevitably meant the media targeting anyone to the Left of its politics with an eye to achieving targeted political outcomes. That’s bad enough especially when pipelined to Big Tech for censorship, but government involvement in “disinformation” is simply state censorship.…

In the permanent state of insanity we now live in, it’s good to occasionally touch base with reality. That’s what we’ve tried to do in this Mavericks and Outliers conversation with Betsie Saltzberg.

The Squad is a horrible, pathetic and violently racist and deranged mess. Here’s the latest from Rep. Cori Bush’s campaign. Rep. Cori Bush (D., Mo.) spent years cultivating a relationship with a pro-Palestinian activist who once tweeted that she wants to “set Israel on fire with my own hands & watch it burn to ashes…

This happens all too rarely and it’s a shame because it allows leftists and the media to turn their latest monster into a martyr with soft-focused photos and sketches. Arabella Yarbrough says she thought she and her 2 kids were going to die Wed. night, after she says Tekle Sundberg fired these shots through her…

He was addressing a U.S.-Arab…

Some things are so perfect that they were just meant to be. In this case, the two facades of leftist antisemitism joining forces. I wrote about the campaign against Jewish religious schools in 2019. The New York State Department of Education now threatens to shut down Jewish schools and report parents who refuse to send their children…

Megan McArdle, the lone sane non-grifter at the Washington Post, joining the effort to save the Democrats from going completely insane while commenting on that ridiculous Senate farce. In even tones, Bridges replied that while many cisgender women have the capacity for pregnancy, many don’t, while some trans men and nonbinary people do. But after…

Biden’s visit to East Jerusalem was always going to be nasty.  The visiting official refused to let Israelis accompany him to an event with “Palestinians” and just to drive the point home, his limo took off the Israeli flag, emphasizing that he does not recognize a united Jerusalem. US President Joe Biden’s motorcade no longer had Israeli…

Former New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio tried to run for president, it didn’t work out, he abandoned his plans to run for governor, and decided to run for a race he could win in a spot cleared by the upending of New York’s old illegal Democrat map, pitting Rep. Nadler and Rep. Maloney…
