My latest in PJ Media: This is what they call journalism these days. “The Biden White House has sprung its first leaks,” the Daily Beast has proclaimed triumphantly, but before you get excited at the prospect that the Beast actually intends to commit real acts of journalism at any time during the next four years, […]
Demagoguery: ‘Conservative’ Warns Us That Trump Wants to Be a Dictator
My latest in PJ Media: Matt Lewis is yet another Never-Trump house conservative for the Left, retailing Leftist talking points that are supposed to sway conservative Trump supporters since they come from someone with such an impressive conservative pedigree. Lewis has worked for the Leadership Institute, written for Human Events and the Daily Caller, and […]
SPLC, ‘Color of Change’ played role smearing Robert Spencer as “white supremacist” for Mastercard blacklisting
Here is a good summary article about the Daily Beast hit piece on me and what it reveals. “The Daily Beast article…called Spencer ‘far-right’ and featured the term ‘white supremacist(s)’ three times despite the fact that Spencer is neither.” That’s what the Left does these days, and there is much more of it coming. “Report: […]
Daily Beast’s Will Sommer libels Robert Spencer and does victory dance over Patreon dropping him
UPDATE: Will Sommer replied with this: “Hey Robert, gonna have to take a pass on this, although rest assured I know you’re not the same person as Richard Spencer.” He left all the other questions unanswered. Leftist “journalists” don’t have to answer to their targets! ———– Virtually nothing in this Daily Beast celebratory piece over […]
Left discovers jihad, blames Trump for emboldening “jihadist” Saudi Arabia
This war on jihad terror gets stranger by the day. Many leftist purveyors of “Islamophobia” propaganda are resistant to the very word “jihad” and the reality that normative Islam is jihadist at the core and is very much driven by Islamic texts. Yet now CNN’s Fareed Zakaria, of all people, has written about “jihadist terrorism” […]
Daily Beast crows that Sean Spicer “makes up Atlanta Islamist terror attack”
Here we go again. It would be nice if Spicer and Conway had not gotten the names wrong, but the establishment propaganda media is trying to portray both misstatements as some attempt by the Trump administration to exaggerate the jihad terror threat. In reality, it’s true, “there has not been a successful jihadi terror attack […]
Fake news: Daily Beast falls for Quebec mosque attack hoax, blames ‘white supremacists’
The establishment propaganda media has jumped on the Quebec mosque shooting as an incidence of Trump-inspired “Islamophobia.” This hoax furthered their narrative, so the Daily Beast jumped on it. Meanwhile, back in the real world, the killers screamed “Allahu akbar,” and one of them was named Mohamed, making this likely to be a case of […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: Did the FBI Goad Jihadis Into Attacking the Garland Muhammad Cartoon Contest?
Over at PJ Media I discuss how the Daily Beast is trying to demonize the FBI and cover for jihad killers: Is the FBI one of the chief motivators of jihad activity? The Daily Beast thinks so, as do many others. Friday’s article about how an undercover FBI agent supposedly goaded the jihad terrorists who […]
Daily Beast claims FBI goaded jihadis into attacking Garland free speech event
Is a rogue, Islamophobic FBI really badgering Muslims who would otherwise have been peaceful, law-abiding citizens until they finally snap and go jihad? Only in the Left’s most febrile fantasies. Katie Zavadski would have us believe that if this undercover FBI agent hadn’t told Ibrahim Simpson to “tear up Texas,” Simpson would have remained a […]
Video: After Brussels jihad massacre, Daily Beast editor decries “rampant Islamophobia” in Europe
“Now, you have a situation where people who were not inclined to look suspiciously at Arabs and Muslims, now they’re terrified.” And if they’re terrified, it’s their fault. “Well, it certainly is going to make it more and more difficult for Muslims and Arabs to integrate into European society. The level of suspicion is very […]
Geller and Spencer in Breitbart: “In Cathy Young’s World, Everybody Surrenders”
Cathy Young and The Daily Beast clearly intended her hit piece on Pamela Geller and me to be a comprehensive source for lazy journalists, for everything that is wrong with us. The problem is that her piece is a farrago of misrepresentations and outright lies. Pamela Geller and I respond at Breitbart today: The teaser […]
Sharia-compliant Daily Beast worries: “Are Russia’s Troops Vandalizing Korans In Dagestan?”
If you want to worry about Russian troops, there is plenty to worry about. Even this story alleges that they looted and destroyed property, and quotes someone calling them “robbers and murderers.” But the primary focus of this Daily Beast piece is not any of that; it’s that Russian troops allegedly trashed Qur’ans in Dagestan. […]
