In a lengthy, skillfully written article, a liberal Trump foe writes that MSNBC’s Russia-collusion-obsessed Rachel Maddow can be as “bonkers” as chalkboard-loving Glenn Beck.

Lost in much of the breaking news of late, Covington Catholic High School student Nicholas Sandmann recently filed a 132-page, $275 million defamation lawsuit against CNN, $200 million of which is a claim for punitive damages.
The accountant for billionaire Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos, the world’s richest man, likely will have a busy year. Bezos will probably have to split his massive fortune with his wife when they officially go their separate ways. His Post newspaper is now also facing a $250 million 38-page defamation lawsuit from Covington Catholic high school student Nicholas Sandmann for what his lawyers describe as “a modern-day form of McCarthyism” in connection with the paper’s coverage of the highly publicized incident at the Lincoln Memorial in January. On Friday night, hoping that no one was paying attention, the Post published an editor’s note about its coverage in what is often described generically as an under-the-radar document dump.
In comments that she quipped might constitute “professional suicide,” CBS News Foreign Correspondent, or more specifically ex-CBS News correspondent, Lara Logan told a podcaster that the media is mostly liberal, which should come as no surprise to anyone who is paying attention. It’s unusual, though, that someone employed in the mainstream media would admit to the rampant bias. According to Variety, Logan and CBS supposedly parted ways sometime last year, so maybe that has something to do with her candor. Logan did not mention that she was no longer employed by the network during the interview, however. See the video embedded below.
News broke late last week that news outlets/clickbait mills BuzzFeed and HuffPost were laying off a large number of staffers. Being pink slipped is a very unpleasant experience, but journalists at liberal outlets seldom hesitate to try to get others fired (or worse) for politically incorrect transgressions that often turn out to be fake news.
During a SiriusXM interview, CNN analyst Areva Martin accused radio host David Webb of benefiting from white privilege.
David Webb, who also works for Fox News, is a black man.
Even occasionally surfing over to The Five on the Fox News Channel at 5 p.m. Eastern time confirms that the political ensemble program is probably no longer worth watching. Here’s why.
News broke on Friday night that NBC News and Megyn Kelly have officially parted ways, with the erstwhile Today show host reportedly exiting with the balance owed on her three-year contact, totaling about $30 million. Without providing any details, NBC said in a statement that “The parties have resolved their differences, and Megyn Kelly is no longer an employee of NBC.” The network took Kelly off the air in late October after the host’s controversial Halloween blackface comments (despite her two apologies). Her lawyer and the network were negotiating the severance package ever since. The agreement reportedly contains a confidentiality clause.
The Media Resembles a Doomsday Cult
Whether it’s because of his outsized, boastful salesman personality, the hair, or the spray tan, the doomsday-is-nigh mainstream media has conducted an obsessive, irrational vendetta against U.S. President Donald Trump. The media treats developments in the news cycle like the end of the world, and doomsday is at hand. Then it’s on to the next controversy du jour. Let’s stipulate the president can sometimes be his own worst enemy by stepping on and/or obscuring his message and accomplishments with needless feuds and overly combative or imprecise rhetoric. Whether you like his demeanor or not, however, the Trump’s MAGA agenda — in fulfillment of campaign promises perhaps like no other president — is all about making America stronger, safer, and more prosperous.
Never Trump, which some say puts the “con” in conservative/neo-con, is a losing proposition. Glenn Beck’s financially challenged The Blaze network, for example, forfeited a tremendous amount of traffic once it went Never Trump and has now merged with CRTV. And it looks like The Weekly Standard could be shutting down entirely.
