Media Bias and Hunter’s Laptop

Media Bias and Hunter’s Laptop. The press won’t claw back its credibility until it admits why it buried the story.

Saint Dismas. Oscar Wilde, himself a deathbed convert to Catholicism, said "every saint has a past and every sinner has a future". I like to think Wilde said this with St. Dismas in mind, along with the astonishing power of forgiveness.

Florida Fact-Checks the Biden Administration. “The federal government’s medical establishment releasing guidance failing at the most basic level of academic rigor shows that this was never about health care,” said State Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo. “It was about injecting political ideology into the health of our children

CNN decided they wanted to join the streaming revolution, and invested heavily in something called CNN+. They even hired Chris Wallace away from Fox News Sunday. Surprisingly, nobody wanted to pay $10/month to watch CNN when it was already free on TV. They are shutting it down .



This week’s White House Report Card finds President Joe Biden stumbling through yet another bad week dotted with defeats, sinking polls, confusing announcements, and the continued implosion in the office of his even more unpopular vice president, Kamala Harris.

Fake news today, fake news tomorrow, fake news forever

Victor Davis Hanson The Nihilism of the Left. In pursuit of its utopian omelet, the Left cares little about the millions of middle-class Americans it must break to make it. In a sane world, Biden would have been impeached for deliberately destroying the very federal laws he swore to uphold.

Some observers consider the New York Times’ belated admission that Hunter Biden’s laptop was genuine to be a big deal. I don’t. For one thing, the Times hasn’t acknowledged, and won’t report on, the specific information on the laptop that told the story of Joe Biden’s corruption.

A Kamala Harris staff exodus reignites questions about her leadership style — and her future ambitions. So, the normally reliably liberal Washington Post is trying to cancel Kamala. There must be something going on.

Trump Was Right: The Political Establishment Is Utterly Corrupt. The media get swept up in lies on the Hunter Biden scandal.

Chris Wallace, the former "FOX News Sunday" host, spent 18 years with a network that showed him, by his own estimation, the utmost respect. Wallace is now unwilling to do the same in return. Is this really how he wants to be remembered?

Record Applications, Record Rejections. The most competitive colleges and universities in the country got more competitive. But most institutions are still trying to fill their classes.

Gordon Klein is a professor at UCLA’s Anderson School of Management. What happened to Klein, which is now the subject of a lawsuit, is among the most insane circumstances we have seen in the dozens of post-George Floyd academic cancel culture cases we have followed.

The mainstream media gives you daily reports on the war in Ukraine, but not much about the tactical situation. The Institute for the Study of War on the other hand provides daily detailed information on the actual conflict on the ground. Go there is you want to know how the war is going for both sides.

We have been following the reports on the shootings in downtown Sacramento last weekend, which left six people dead and injured a dozen more.  It’s clear now that the shooting was the result of a conflict among groups of people that turned into a gun battle on a crowded street filled with patrons leaving as bars closed. As the investigation continues, Sacramento police assert gang violence as at the heart of the incident.

Biden's Latest Pervy Comment May Be the Most Awkward Yet

It only took a year and a half, but now that their side can’t lose an election over the issue the New York Times has finally capitulated to the truth and run a story admitting that yes, Hunter Biden’s laptop computer was abandoned at a repair shop in Delaware and yes, the laptop contained all the atrocious stuff the New York Post reported on back in the fall of 2020. Here's what the WSJ has to say.

Roger Kimball thinks Biden’s Handlers Are Preparing to Eject Him (and Kamala). They must replace him, otherwise they themselves risk being replaced, which would be intolerable.

The media continues to ridicule the folks who believe the election was stolen. Here's a serious study that says the same thing.

Why Is Everybody Ganging Up on Poor Hunter Biden? Could the sudden spate of Hunter Biden stories have anything to do with The Big Guy’s disastrous, gaffe-filled trip to Poland, where he almost started World War III several times with his ham-fisted misstatements, forcing the White House Cleanup After Joe Office to go on 24-hour alert?

Self-Destructive Disney Finds a New (More Permanent) Way to Terrify Children. “In a featured presentation at the meeting, executive producer Latoya Raveneau laid out Disney’s ideology in blunt terms. She said her team was implementing a ‘not-at-all-secret gay agenda’ and regularly  ‘adding queerness’ to children’s programming. Another speaker, production coordinator Allen Martsch, said his team has created a ‘tracker’ to ensure that they are creating enough “canonical trans characters, canonical asexual characters, [and] canonical bisexual characters.’ Corporate president Karey Burke said she supported having ‘many, many, many LGBTQIA characters in our stories’ and reaffirmed the company’s pledge to make at least 50 percent of its on-screen characters sexual and racial minorities.”
