New York

The New York City Health Department reportedly ran a censorship unit during the COVID-19 pandemic and the health commissioner pressured tech platforms to censor so-called “misinformation.”

A suitably bizarre New York Times story, commemorating a bizarre new sculpture over a state courthouse building in New York City, appeared on the front of Saturday’s Arts section: “Move Over Moses and Zoroaster: Manhattan Has a New Female Lawgiver, by Dan Bilefsky: "'Maybe she can help channel us back to reinstating Roe v. Wade,' Bishop added, referring to the “NOW” sculpture, which…

Just before the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade as well as the annual March for Life, NY Mayor Eric Adams announced free medication abortion to make it even easier for the women in New York to chemically execute their unborn children. 

It’s now been three years since COVID hit. At the start of the pandemic, “experts” shouted: “Stay home!” “Close schools!” “Wash your hands!” “Disinfect countertops!” Clearly, disinfecting countertops and washing hands made no difference. What about closing schools and lockdowns? The media trashed Gov. Ron DeSantis when he lifted Florida’s lockdown. “Acting irresponsibly!” roared MSNBC’s Dr.…

NEW YORK – I was a teenager when I first visited New York. The flight cost $15 on the Eastern Airlines Shuttle from Washington, D.C. You could buy your ticket from a flight attendant on board. She (and it was always a she back then) would roll a cart down the aisle with a credit card device on top. New York in the ’60s was THE place to visit. There was Greenwich Village with folk music.…

Elon Musk conducted a Twitter poll to ask whether he should reinstate former President Donald Trump’s account. The poll received 15,085,458 votes -- and Twitter issued its final results in just one day! Musk should stop wasting his genius on hobbies like Tesla and SpaceX and become the Maricopa County, Arizona, election supervisor. About that Twitter poll, what’s the over/under on when two-…

On Monday's CNN This Morning, co-host Don Lemon tried to undermine Republican complaints about the negative effects of bail reform in New York during an interview with (eventually victorious) Republican congressional candidate Adam Lawler.

The historical averages suggested a "red wave" of some size in the 2022 midterms. But the media's Election Night routine was slightly blander when there was no obvious tilt toward Republicans, but instead a tilt toward all incumbents. We had no cries of "whitelash" or talk of voters throwing two-year-old temper tantrums.

Following most nationwide elections, one of the liberal media’s favorite tropes is to trumpet so-called “historic” winners that assist one in filling out a diversity bingo card. Such was the case Wednesday morning after the lackluster Republican performance as ABC, CBS, and NBC used their flagship news programs to swoon over Democrat Maxwell Frost winning a dark-blue Orlando-area House seat to…

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul finds herself in an unexpectedly close race with less than one week to go until Election Day so she stopped by MSNBC’s The 11th Hour on Friday to be asked by host Stephanie Ruhle if the reason for her struggles is “sexism by voters” and “we give you enough credit” on crime.

The tide is turning in America on issues of crime and policing and Hollywood has gotten the memo. NBC's "Law & Order" premiered another episode rejecting anti-police and soft-on-crime attitudes.

Former Secretary of State swung by Thursday’s CNN This Morning for a wide-ranging, but still softball interview that included co-host Don Lemon asking her to “Speak to us about” the threat to democracy around the world, including in America.

Partisans, a slanted history of the 1990s-era GOP by anti-conservative academic and CNN favorite Nicole Hemmer, was reviewed by Gabriel Debenedetti, national correspondent for New York magazine, for the New York Times, under the tired headline, “Resentful, Media-Savvy and Paving the Way for Trump.” The subhead extended the usual “Republicans are all conspiracists”…

This midterm season has seen the mainstream media downplaying outbreaks of crime, and its causes, across the country, an issue that polls badly for Democrats. So it’s not a shock that the networks on Monday morning buried a shooting outside New York Congressman (and GOP gubernatorial candidate) Lee Zeldin’s home. Zeldin’s two teenage daughters were home alone and were just feet away from the…
