The resignation of Harvard president Claudine Gay after "facing national backlash for her administration’s response to Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack and allegations of plagiarism in her scholarly work" does not solve the problem at America’s oldest college and other elite schools. She and many other university presidents are only a symptom of what’s wrong with our system of education, from bottom to…

With migrants now flooding our Southwestern border at a reported 10,000 seeking entry daily, it is essential that we take steps to crystalize a national immigration policy. Republicans insist that the $74 billion in funds that the Biden administration is asking in aid for Ukraine and Israel be part of a larger package that deals with border security and comprehensive immigration policy.…

CNN held two presidential town halls on Thursday in Iowa, one with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and another with former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley and while most of the questions were good or unobjectionable as they came from actual Republican voters. However, when CNN deviated from that formula things went sideways as DeSantis was asked how many people he was willing to kill to…

CNN/PBS anchor Christiane Amanpour may claim to be truthful and not neutral, but when Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib joined her on her Wednesday show to blame Israel for the twin bombings in Iran that killed 84 people at the tomb of Qasem Soleimani, Amanpour simply noted that was “your opinion,” but since the program aired, ISIS has taken credit for the attacks, which was always…

The “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC gave full stories Tuesday night and Wednesday morning to the long-delayed resignation of Harvard University President Claudine Gay following her infamous congressional testimony refusing to condemn rampant anti-Semitism on her campus and a growing list of examples of plagiarism.

CNN NewsNight host Abby Phillip tried without success on Tuesday to get Democratic Rep. Jared Moskowitz to agree with Sen. Bernie Sanders that the time has come to cut aid to Israel. Later in the show she also failed to get Manhattan Institute podcaster Coleman Hughes to agree that now former Harvard President Claudine Gay is a victim of racism or, at the very least, partisan politics…

No evening of post-Claudine Gay resignation hot takery would be complete without MSNBC’s Joy Reid weighing in. And weigh in she did- by claiming, without evidence, that Gay was “taken out” in order to make room for the guys “who used to have” the presidencies of elite universities in the 50s.

As Americans headed home from their holiday vacations, some had the misfortune of having pro-Palestinian demonstrators block their way to the airport and delay their flights, but as 2024 began only NBC gave the briefest of mentions of the radicals and their tactics.

After taking trips down memory lane on Tuesday and Thursday with the six most pro-Hamas moments and grillings from the left, respectively, we’re going to open 2024 with the 12 best moments – battles, beatdowns, and hardballs – from 2023, the first full year of the ever-inept Karine Jean-Pierre’s term at the podium.

Taxpayer-supported PBS again showed its ongoing hostility toward Israel in its war in Gaza against the terrorist group Hamas on Wednesday’s night episode of the NewsHour. The initial sympathy the NewsHour showed for Israel’s plight after the brutal October 7 invasion has been replaced by endless doomsaying over unavoidable civilian casualties in a war where one side, Hamas,…

The New York Times lead story Thursday certainly was a downer for those who support the one democracy in the Middle East in its war on the terrorists of Hamas. Longtime reporter Neil MacFarquhar penned “Skepticism Grows Over Israel’s Ability to Dismantle Hamas.” But MacFarquhar’s long history of anti-Israel, pro-Arab bias makes him the perfect reporter not to pen a lead story on the…

Today we present the WORST OF 2023: The Jihadist Journalism Award for Helping Hamas

As the ground war in Gaza rages on, so, too, does the propaganda war. And at the heart of the propaganda war are Western media who insist on toeing the Hamas line.

The most obvious retort to people who forced out New York Times editorial page editor James Bennet for publishing an op-ed by Sen. Tom Cotton was the parade of Times op-eds by dictators and terrorists. Now it’s happened again.The Times ran an op-ed Sunday (on Christmas Eve!) by Hamas’s handpicked Gaza City mayor, Yahya Sarraj.
