The Media’s Tale of Good and Evil Continues to Darken

Commentary Though I’m sure the humor was unintentional, the funniest headline of the year so far, in my opinion, appeared in Politico Magazine last week. It read: “There’s a Huge Divide Among Democrats Over How Hard to Campaign for Democracy.” It will come as no surprise to you, I’m sure, that the article turned out to…

One of the world’s most influential newspaper writing stylebooks on July 22 advised against quoting people who use the word “groomer” to describe those who teach children about transgenderism, homosexuality, and other mature sexual issues.

Media Bias Against Israel Is Entrenched and Runs Deep

Commentary Here is a joke I told some high school students years ago—teenagers can be a tough crowd—to show how easily media bias can manufacture or manipulate public sympathy. In Paris, a man sees a pit bull attacking a little girl. He kills the dog, saving the child’s life. Reporters swarm him. One says, “Tell…
