On Thursday's The View, the liberal majority fulminated against Rudy Giuliani suggesting the Mueller probe has accomplished nothing and should wrap it up. Sunny Hostin lamented "He says this is a witch hunt, and it's caught a lot of witches and warlocks! There’s been 75 charges already, 22 people have been indicted so, the suggestion somehow that the Mueller investigation isn't finding anything…
Fox News anchor Bret Baier appeared on ABC's The View on Thursday to promote his new book Three Days in Moscow about Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev. But the ABC crew peppered him with questions about their favorite topic -- the White House aide who insulted John McCain -- and whether Fox News is the "administration's mouthpiece," since it's reported Sean Hannity talks to the president…
Tuesday’s edition of The View once again zombie-walked through the outrage that the White House has yet to issue a public apology to John McCain for White House aide Kelly Sadler suggesting his political stances don’t matter because “he’s dying anyway.” No one in the middle of this circle of supportive sisters asks Meghan McCain why Sadler’s private apology isn’t enough, especially when the…
Sean Hannity congratulated his fellow Fox host Laura Ingraham in the 10 pm handoff on Monday night for “killing it” in the ratings. It looks like the angry leftist boycott completely backfired. The Drudge Report linked to the news that for the first time ever, The Ingraham Angle beat MSNBC’s flagship 9 pm program The Rachel Maddow Show, in the key 25-54 demographic for the week.
On Monday, The View team fulminated several times about remarks made about immigrants by White House chief of staff John Kelly (and in his defense, Fox News analyst Tomi Lahren). When Empire actor Terrence Howard appeared, Joy Behar asked him about immigration and he lectured "To the universe, there are no borders. It's just mankind that placed these borders."
The View was engaged in Hot Topic Recycling on Monday. Putting the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem or denuclearization of North Korea were ignored in favor of more piling-on about a leaked insult of Sen. John McCain, which was already addressed on Friday’s show. Meghan McCain surely caused a few jaws to drop by saying if you don’t have role models in politics, well, “You got some on The View, with all…
On Friday's The View, they began the show in the most expected way: putting out the floor for Meghan McCain to decry insults against her dying father, Sen. John McCain. Whoopi Goldberg decried the lack of "decorum" and "decency," but....it was Whoopi who asked McCain in 2008 if he was going to make her a slave again if he was elected president.
On MSNBC on Thursday, the hosts were competing to see which one could be more upset that President Trump welcomed three Americans home from being imprisoned in North Korea. Ari Melber put in a strong bid on his show The Beat, inviting on a reality-TV show producer to call the president.... a “thirsty bitch.”
CNN doesn’t usually air clippings of nationally syndicated columnists during the regular news day, but they just had to make an exception on Thursday for Washington Post columnist George Will’s nasty attack on Vice President Pence. In the 3 pm hour, subsitute anchor Brianna Keilar brought on Jake Tapper to savor the "brutal" Will column.
First, they quoted: “Trump is what he is, a floundering,…
CNN anchor Jake Tapper appeared to plug his novel The Hellfire Club on ABC's The View on Wednesday. Mostly, the View crew wanted him to pronounce on the Trump tweet of the day on the "fake news" (and the MRC number showing 91 percent of the evening-news coverage of Trump was negative from January to April). When Sunny Hostin asked him about whether there was too much bias or editorializing in the…
