Reid Attacks Trump For Praising William McKinley, Lauds Racist Wilson

October 3rd, 2024 2:18 PM

MSNBC’s Joy Reid likes to fashion herself as a good race and gender conscious progressive, which is why it was weird when she declared on Monday’s edition of The ReidOut that it was natural that Donald Trump said he admires President William McKinley because the 1890s were a time that was “only great for men like Donald Trump.” At the same time, Reid had nice things to say about…

NY Papers Battle: Jill's 'Elder Abuse' vs. 'Special Counsel's Hit Job'

February 10th, 2024 4:00 PM

Ya can’t make it up. The New York Post takes the bull by the horns, headlining its editorial this way, "Jill Biden and Dems committed elder abuse on Joe — now they must force him to step aside."

NYT Now OK With Truth of Lefty Hero Woodrow Wilson’s ‘Terror Campaign'

October 12th, 2022 7:30 PM

It’s now safe for the New York Times to refer in full-throated fashion to former Democratic and “progressive” President Woodrow Wilson (who served 1913-1921) as a racist menace -- at least in the Sunday Book Review section. 

How things have changed. A January 2021 Times news story by Jennifer Schuessler, “The Ideas Behind Trump’s 1776 Commission Report,” dismissively…

‘God Bless Biden!’; Joy Reid Claims Fox News Wants to Murder YOU!

December 21st, 2021 11:06 PM

Having been off on Monday, MSNBC’s ReidOut host Joy Reid returned on Tuesday amid a busy news week and didn’t waste time showing the opposite of the Christmas spirit as, after having repeatedly said “God bless Joe Biden,” she argued Fox News wants “their viewers and their fans” to “die because they don't give a damn” and it’d be a “fun” way to make Biden look bad.

Democrats Threaten to Burn Down the Republic to Stack Supreme Court

September 24th, 2020 9:12 PM

Last week, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died at the age of 87. Her death immediately initiated a political firestorm in Washington, D.C. -- one that threatens the very integrity of the republic. That's not because, as the media and Democrats would claim, some sort of institutional norm has been violated by a Republican president selecting a replacement for Ginsburg to be voted on…

FLASHBACK: Nets Hid That This RACIST President Was a Democrat

August 1st, 2020 12:15 PM

This summer has seen a historical reckoning with how the country views the past. Yet when liberals and Democrats are the target of reassessment, journalists get nervous. Whether it’s the racism of Planned Parenthood’s founder or Woodrow Wilson, the media would rather you not ask too many questions. 

NYT First Mocked Conservative Charges of Racism Against Woodrow Wilson

June 25th, 2020 10:19 AM

The left has come for former progressive President Woodrow Wilson, perhaps the founding father of the modern-day liberal state, for his deep racism and the segregationist policies he pushed both as president of Princeton University and president of the United States from 1913-1921. As the New York Times Michael Levenson’s reported, “Monmouth University to Remove…

NY Post Writer Omits Wilson's 1918 Flu Role, Repeats Reagan/AIDS Myths

February 14th, 2017 3:58 AM
The New York Post, though usually perceived as a right-leaning newspaper, has room for columnists from the "other side" — including selective and truth-challenged ones like Jennifer Wright. Wright's February 11 column covers "some of the most gruesome plagues" in human history, in the process promoting a new book that is quite a departure from her previous ventures "covering sex and dating." Much…

NY Times Once Thought 'Toxic' Wilson Was 'Worthy of Full Confidence'

November 27th, 2015 2:46 PM
The New York Times has now editorialized that Woodrow Wilson had a "toxic legacy" as an "unapologetic racist" that the Left on the Princeton campus was right to repudiate. James Taranto at The Wall Street Journal had a little fun with the same newspaper's endorsement in 1912, calling Toxic Woodrow "a man of high equipment for the office, worthy of the full confidence of the people.” a man of…

NYT Blasts Racist Liberal Hero Wilson, Yet Mocked His Righty Critics

November 25th, 2015 10:55 PM
There was an interesting lead editorial in Wednesday's New York Times, forcefully in favor of demands from a black protest group at Princeton University to erase President Woodrow Wilson's name from the university's public policy institute because of his vile racial views and support for Jim Crow. Yet one could ask once again, where was this editorial concern five years ago, when it was leading…

NYT's Strange New Dis-Respect: 'Hating Woodrow Wilson' Suddenly OK

November 24th, 2015 10:37 AM
It's suddenly acceptable in the New York Times to call liberal hero Woodrow Wilson a racist, now that a black campus pressure group is making demands that Princeton University strike the name of Wilson, former president of the university, from the name of its public policy school. Yet for years, prominent conservatives have reminded liberals of the blatant racism and discrimination practiced by…

Hope Over Experience: CBS Wonders If 'Wilson's League of Nations' Coul

September 9th, 2013 2:43 PM
During a weekend leading up to President Obama making a more forceful case for war in Syria, CBS’s Sunday Morning was still pretending that Wilsonian internationalism could have prevented World War II. Undeterred by his train-wreck on Cinco de Mayo, CBS gave comedian Mo Rocca another historical segment, this one on a new book by A. Scott Berg on President Woodrow Wilson. Rocca asked Berg if…

Morning Joe Mocks Olbermann's Special Comment Rants

January 13th, 2009 8:47 AM
Far be it from me to sow discord in MSNBC ranks, to stir up old animosities between colleagues there.  But if Joe Scarborough is going to do a mocking imitation of Keith Olbermann in full Special Comment rant, well then, blogging ethics compel me to report it.The jumping-off point on Morning Joe today was Eugene Robinson's current WaPo column. After claiming that he didn't want to kick the…
