Overall, the 83rd annual Golden Globes was obnoxious, pretentious and tiresome. Few of the actors had any real star power or charisma. Hollywood’s golden era is long gone, but its clueless celebrities still think they have cultural power to lecture audiences.

Liberal Media Defenders Turn to Leaks, Mean Girl Smears to Attack CBS’s Dokoupil, Weiss
Along with the liberal media meltdowns that resulted from incoming CBS Evening News anchor Tony Dokoupil’s brief commentary about the state of the legacy media, the onslaught continued into the weekend following both the publication of the newscast’s core values and subsequent think pieces and anonymously-sourced invective at Dokoupil and CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss.
ABC News Breathlessly Joins Fake “Cognitive Decline” Drumbeat
A pattern emerges: after years of ignoring Joe Biden’s glaring mental decline, the elitist media want to manufacture an early cognitive decline narrative with regard to President Donald Trump. We earlier spotlighted CNN’s attempt: here’s ABC’s.
When Republicans Do Long Interviews with Liberal Journalists
You can’t win by granting access, and you can’t win by denying it. The authors and activists of the Democrat press approach Trump with the mentality of “heads we win, tails you lose.”
Joe Rogan and Right-Wingers Snubbed in Golden Globe Best Podcast List
Over at his kvetchfest of a website Status, Oliver Darcy complained that the Globe pickers wanted to platform “toxic figures” “who spend their days radicalizing audiences and inflaming the culture wars.” Darcy wants conservatives to be removed from all platforms, including awards shows. Maybe it’s time for Darcy to do a victory dance.
Former Anchor Connie Chung Freaks Out Over CBS’s New Management
There is something about the podcast world that encourages former network journalists to let the mask slip and reveal that they really were the liberal activists critics alleged they were all along. Former CBS anchor Connie Chung was the latest example
Apple News Pushes Left-Wing Agenda for Second Week in a Row
Apple News failed to highlight a single right-leaning source for the second week in a row, pushing stories from 82 left-leaning new sites while completely hiding stories from outlets many Americans prefer. These cherry-picked articles consistently reflect a leftist bias, suggesting that Apple News is using its power to push a political agenda.
“The View’s” Fake Conservative Defends Floozy Lib Journo Olivia Nuzzi
As she did just over a year ago, Alyssa Farah Griffin, the faux conservative for ABC’s The View, came to the defense of Vanity Fair editor Olivia Nuzzi, the liberal journalist who cheated on her then-fiancé Ryan Lizza with Secretary RFK Jr. During Thursday’s episode, Farah Griffin proclaimed floozy Nuzzi was “one of the best writers of my generation.
MSNBC’s Election Night Was the Brain Rot You’d Expect
Election Night on the soon-to-be-former MSNBC was about as you’d expect: equal parts liberal brain rot and, on a night where the left made significant gains, a twinge of smug insufferability.
Will Anyone Buy CNN’s Second Attempt at Streaming?
CNN better hope CNN All Access succeeds or we’ll be back to mocking them like we did after CNN+ died, which came and went in fewer time than New Coke and cost as much as 240 million pizzas and 25 Obama mansions.
The KJP Book Is Worse Than You Could Have Possibly Imagined
Jean-Pierre’s book broke no new ground on the inner workings of the White House. Rather, she offered meandering, repetitive excuses for President Biden and denied his cognitive decline. Overall, she penned 172 pages of texts that were comical, insipid, scatterbrained, sloppy, and vapid.
Networks Still Fawning Over No Kings Protests as Ground-Breaking, Ignoring Ugly Signs
ABC, CBS, and NBC were still harping Monday morning on the No Kings protests, ignoring the ugly signs from some of the rallies, including more than a few celebrating Charlie Kirk’s assassination. The coverage unsurprisingly paled in comparison to how they covered the Tea Party rallies, which we chronicled ahead of the 2010 midterms.
New York Magazine Mourns Exposure of Maine Dem Golden Boy Graham Platner as Violence-Hyping Extremist
Not only is the Honeymoon Over for the Once But Not Future Golden Boy of Democrat Politics but it appears time to play Taps on his brief, heavily-hyped, political career.

MSNBC Spreads Fake News That ICE Zip-Tied Children
After federal agents raided an apartment building in Chicago to arrest Tren de Aragua gang members, MSNBC personalities repeatedly spread the fake news that agents zip-tied children. And, even though no one died in the raid, they also promoted hyperbolic comparisons to the Gestapo, the Tulsa killings of 1921, and the MOVE Philadelphia bombing of 1985.
Wired Writer Whines Pro-Antifa Prof Purportedly Bullied Out of U.S.
Mark Bray is the Rutgers professor who wrote the “Antifa Handbook.” Despite his appetite for politically motivated violence against the right, he purportedly fled the country after podcaster Jack Posobiec called him a “domestic terrorism professor.” That’s according to WIRED writer David Gilbert who had previously whined to PBS that people celebrating the assassination of Charlie Kirk were being fired.
AP Assembles the “Experts” to Diss Trump as Too Nasty for Nobel Peace Prize
The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded by Norwegian socialists, so President Trump’s forever a long shot. AP reporter Mark Lewis penned a dismissive article headlined “Why experts say Trump is unlikely to win the Nobel Peace Prize this year.”
Jane Fonda and the Left Cry Censorship Now?
Jane Fonda is relaunching her father’s “Committee for the First Amendment,” proclaiming Trump is engaged in a “coordinated campaign to silence critics.” We’re still reckoning with the dramatic Biden Administration pressure campaign to silence and deplatform critics across Big Tech platforms.
Bad Bunny at the Super Bowl Is an Awful Choice
Bad Bunny’s endorsement of Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election proves him to be a politically divisive figure. He advocates for Puerto Rican independence, a position favored by only 12% of the island’s population. It’s rank hypocrisy of Bad Bunny playing the Super Bowl after allegedly refusing to tour in the mainland U.S. due to ICE raids, which supposedly compelled him to do a 30-date residency in Puerto Rico instead.
The Corporate Media’s Inexcusably Cozy Relationship with Antifa
Trump’s designation of antifa as a domestic terrorist entity has the corporate media seething. In a vacuum, journalists expressing outrage at a president quelling domestic terrorism would probably sound insane. But for anyone familiar with the leftist press’s affection for Antifa, the media’s response has been all too predictable.
Don Lemon Smears Charlie Kirk Service as “White Nationalism,” Fake Christianity
Monday on his eponymous YouTube show, former CNN host Don Lemon unleashed a torrent of hatred toward the Charlie Kirk memorial service, quoting from his own book published to call it “white nationalism wrapped in religious nationalism” imbued with false, “performative” Christianity, and a tribute to Americans of the past who glorified slavery.
