Sexuality

The New York Times seemingly said the quiet part out loud last Thursday, May 25, when Hollywood critic Wesley Morris penned the piece “‘The Little Mermaid’ Review: The Renovations Are Only Skin Deep” in which he partially whined about there being a lack of sexual “kink” in the children’s movie. He also didn’t appreciate Disney’s latest attempt at “culturally reparative work” and the…

On Tuesday, CBS Mornings gave three teases and a lengthy second-hour interview to “model and trans rights activist” Geena Rocero on the heels of Rocero’s memoir Horse Barbie that celebrated their decision to become transgender at 14 years old and how being trans in the United States is “nightmarish.”

The focus of this past weekend for many people across the country was setting aside a few days to remember soldiers who lost their lives in armed conflict. But for USA Today columnist Nancy Armour, the more important matter at hand was criticizing people who don’t want transgenders in women’s sports.

Apparently, colleges just hand out PhDs to anyone who wants one because on Thursday’s The 11th Hour on MSNBC, economics Prof. Justin Wolfers wondered if Target is “cowardly” for backing off slightly on the store’s display of LGBT products for children or simply the victim of “economic terrorism.” Meanwhile, the pot called the kettle black as senior reporter Ben Collins called the…

How many PolitiFact fact-checkers does it take to fact-check a presidential announcement? Apparently four, as that is how many reporters it took to assess seven statements from Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s Wednesday campaign launch on Twitter Spaces.

The View’s Alyssa Farah Griffin and Rolling Stone’s Jay Michaelson teamed up on Wednesday’s CNN Tonight to attack conservatives for wanting to boycott Target for certain Pride-themed merchandise aimed at children. In things never said about liberal boycotts, Farah Griffin labeled it “very totalitarian,” while Michaelson warned of “stochastic terrorism.”

MSNBC’s Wednesday edition of Andrea Mitchell Reports welcomed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to the 2024 presidential campaign by declaring him to be “the face of the erosion of those freedoms.” What MSNBC meant by “those freedoms” was just a grab bag of social liberalism and fake news.

PolitiFact’s Grace Abels asked on Monday if gender dysphoria is a mental disorder and while she never actually answered the question, Abels was sure of one thing: conservatives are wrong.

ABC Good Morning America co-host Janai Norman teemed up with author and activist Tre’vell Anderson on Saturday to denounce Republicans and their “slew of anti-trans bills” that causing transgenders like Anderson to face an “unprecedented legislative attack… on our lives.”

MSNBC’s The 11th Hour Friday panel previewed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis impending presidential campaign announcement declaring him to be “pro-racial hierarchy” and “pro-white supremacy.”

MSNBC's All In host Chris Hayes lamented on Thursday that when people think of authoritarians, they tend to think of people like Stalin or Mussoulini and not “Mr. Pudding Fingers” because for Hayes, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s education, abortion, Disney, and drag show policies are all hallmarks of “authoritarianism.” However, the worst bit of so-called authoritarianism to come out…

Friday’s editions of CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today hyped Disney’s Thursday announcement that they are cancelling a billion-dollar office complex project in Florida as the sort of thing that naturally happens when Gov. Ron DeSantis decides to pick a fight with them. Neither network gave much thought to the possibility that DeSantis had little or nothing to do with the decision…

As Texas moves to ban “gender-affirming care” for minors, MSNBC’s Jose Diaz-Balart asked a parent, simply known as Rachel, on Thursday if Republicans were being hypocrites. Naturally, Rachel agreed and claimed that they were and that her daughter (son) knew she (he) was a girl before reaching the age of five.

NBC News used deceptive imagery in an apparent attempt to gloss over an outrageous sexually explicit book being pushed on children. Twitter’s Community Notes participants were having none of it.
