2020 Democratic convention

The conventions have one long-standing trend in media bias: the description of tone. Every Republican convention is dark and divisive and angry and ultraconservative. Every Democrat convention is soothingly centrist and stuffed with "inspirational" speeches. 

Republican National Convention has become a proving ground for how inconsistent the CNN was in terms of treating both political parties fairly. As NewsBusters’ associate editor Scott Whitlock documented last week, the anti-Trump news outlet only interrupted night two of the Democratic National Convention once. But for night two of the RNC, CNN disrupted the proceedings four times to whine…

Last week during the Democratic National Convention, journalists and media outlets did their best to bury the 1993 sexual assault accusations against Joe Biden. As noted in a Media Research Center study, CNN and MSNBC basically turned into DNC TV during the conventions, playing the Democratic feed with no commentary or analysis.

Making clear that they would be spewing endless venom toward the people House Speaker Nancy Pelsoi deemed “enemies of the state,” MSNBC opened its Monday coverage of the RNC with disdain, fear, and somberness. Worst of all, co-host Joy Reid feared that the RNC was a sign the Trumps believe they are America’s true monarchy and the President will follow in the footsteps of Russian President…

MSNBC journalists, which sat by like good propaganda hacks during the Democratic National Convention, have suddenly been stirred to protect truth. Last week, the partisan hacks at MSNBC offered no fact checking of the Democrats, but on Monday, the cable network repeatedly warned of GOP lies. 

Brian Stelter doesn’t think much of you dummies who shun the “normal” media for Fox News. The CNN anchor appeared on another liberal cable channel, MSNBC, on Monday night to plus his new book bashing Fox News. As the Republican National Convention was about to begin, Stelter sneered, “One third of the country is disconnected from the normal news system, the NBCs and the New York Times and they…

CNN's Brian Stelter accurately reflected the liberal arrogance that Biden's speech must have been "largely accurate," but there were some obvious red flags in this speech that a truly objective fact watchdog should have evaluated as something less than accurate, and often False.

CNN and MSNBC let their audiences see roughly 90 percent of the Democratic video show that stood in for this year’s national convention without any meaningful interruptions. ABC, CBS and NBC showed their viewers about 30 percent of the convention as produced by the party. If those organizations are still in the news business, that’s exactly how much of the Republican Convention you’ll see on…

On Sunday's Reliable Sources, CNN host Brian Stelter played his usual role as enforcer of liberal bias, insisting the networks must create an imbalance in how they cover conventions. CNN was right to allow two hours a night of Democrat advertising, he said, but the Republicans must be interrupted incessantly because it will be a "stream of lying." 

So it begins. The completion of the Democratic National Convention and the approaching Republican counterpart has effectively launched the final stage of the 2020 presidential campaign. And The Washington Post has hit the panic button.

On Friday afternoon, CNN anchor Anderson Cooper reacted stoically as far-left CNN contributor Nina Turner went into a rant trashing the U.S., asserting that "this country is racist," and that it "definitely needs to be redeemed."

This week, while all eyes have been on the Democratic National Convention taking place via Zoom, truly historic events have occurred in the Middle East: a long-awaited peace deal between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, including full normalization of relations; presumed peace deals to follow between Israel and Sudan, Oman and Bahrain; the possibility on the horizon of a similar deal with…

Which presidential candidate will bankrupt America first, Donald Trump or Joe Biden? Last year, we compared the costs of the leading Democratic candidates' promises. At that time, Biden, to his credit, proposed the least new spending. Kamala Harris promised the most. She wanted to add $4.2 trillion to America's debt. Her lavish promises didn't win her supporters; she dropped out soon after.…

If you thought Kamala Harris would be the only Democrat debating Vice President Mike Pence this election season, you would be wrong. Serving as a partisan stand-in for Joe Biden’s running mate, on Friday’s CBS This Morning, co-host Tony Dokoupil demanded Pence agree with the Democratic nominee’s nasty assertion that President Trump has “cloaked America in darkness.”
