The New York Times describes Ali Kourani as a “Lebanese immigrant,” for an audience that believes Donald Trump is a new Hitler for wanting to restrict mass immigration. The New York Times wants you to think Kourani’s sentencing was unjust. Emily Palmer of the Times mentions in passing, but doesn’t bother to give you full […]
How the Mainstream Media Covered Secretary Pompeo on the Settlements
When Secretary of State Pompeo announced that the Trump Administration did not view Israeli settlements as violating international law, the American media did its best to convince its audience that this was a radical departure from “40 years” of settled policy. The New York Times outdid itself, insisting in its headline that: In Shift, U.S. […]
New York Times called Baghdadi a “terrorist,” but scrubs “terror” from article about killing of “Palestinian” jihadi
Why? Because terrorism against Israeli civilians is just fine with the New York Times, which has demonized Israel and whitewashed the jihad for years. “New York Times Scrubs ‘Terror’ from Islamic Jihad Story,” by Gilead Ini, CAMERA, November 12, 2019: Abu Bakr al Baghdadi was a “terrorist” who led a “terrorist group” that committed “acts […]
New York Times: “18 years have passed since airplanes took aim and brought down the World Trade Center”
The denial and obfuscation are quite literally endless. The establishment media’s first priority is to make sure no one thinks ill of Islam. If Christians had brought down the Towers in the name of Christ, would the Times be this solicitous of Christianity? What do you think? “Nolte: New York Times Says ‘Airplanes Took Aim […]
The New York Times Has a Jewish Problem (Part 4)
Ever since March 30, 2018, much of the New York Times’ coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian war has focused on the Great March of Return in Gaza. For that was the day this ballyhooed march began, which takes place every Friday, where sometimes thousands, and sometimes tens of thousands, organized and led by Hamas fighters, march […]
The New York Times Has a Jewish Problem (Part 3)
The New York Times failed in its duty to inform, and to warn, in its coverage of both Nazi antisemitism in the 1930s, and of the genocide of Europe’s Jews, from 1939 on. Its coverage of Israel, especially in the last two decades, also leaves a great deal to be desired. The paper has increasingly been […]
The New York Times Has a Jewish Problem (Part 2)
Under-reporting by the New York Times on Nazi antisemitism, and the deliberate placement of such abridged stories deep inside the paper, had terrible consequences for the Jews of Europe. First, American Jews who relied on the Times for their information, in that pre-television era, had no clear idea of the extent of the antisemitic horrors […]
The New York Times Has a Jewish Problem (Part 1)
An editor at the New York Times has recently apologized for having written several anti-Semitic and racist tweets. Tom Wright-Piersanti is a senior staff editor at the Times. In the years 2008-2010, Wright-Piersanti wrote several offensive tweets, which were uncovered by the website Breitbart. On New Years’ Day 2010, Wright-Piersanti tweeted, “I was going to […]
The New York Times, Aftenposten, Robert Spencer, Richard Spencer, and journalistic standards in 2019
The New York Times and Norway’s Aftenposten are both respected pillars of “journalism,” but neither would know the facts if they came up to them and yelled “Extry! Extry! Read all about it!” Just ask former U.S. President Robert Nixon and the celebrated atheist Robert Dawkins. Oh wait, did I get those names wrong? Don’t […]
New York Times smears Jihad Watch, covers for Minneapolis Muslim migrant community, US jihad recruitment capital
“More men and boys from a Somali American community in Minneapolis have joined – or attempted to join – a foreign terrorist organization over the last 12 years than any other jurisdiction in the country.” The New York Times just featured an article by Astead W. Herndon, titled, “‘These People Aren’t Coming From Norway’: Refugees […]
New York Times Claims Sri Lanka Muslims Terrorized by Christians
After every terrorist attack, it’s only a matter of time until the media runs its expected, “Muslims fear backlash” stories. The New York Times was one of the first media outlets out of the gate to claim that Sri Lankan Muslims are being terrorized by Christians. “In the town of Negombo, where an attack on […]
New York Times, Ilhan Omar claim Jesus was a “Palestinian”
In AD 134, the Romans had expelled the Jews from Judea after the Bar Kokhba revolt and renamed the region Palestine. The Romans had plucked this name from the Bible; it was the name of the Israelites’ ancient enemies, the Philistines. But never did the term “Palestinian” refer to anything but a region — not […]
Robert Spencer in FrontPage: The Sri Lanka Jihad Massacre and the Decline of the West
How many times is the charade of denial going to play out? (Note that this article was written before the BBC carried a report saying that Sri Lankan authorities were identifying the attackers as part of a “radical Islamist extremist group.”) My latest in FrontPage: Well over two hundred people are dead, and hundreds more […]
Author of New York Times hit piece on Israel works for group funded by Qatar, which also funds Hamas
Jihad propaganda presented as straight news by one of America’s most powerful and influential news outlets. The establishment media makes it clearer by the day how much it has departed from being an actual news source. The establishment media is an assemblage of propaganda outfits for the Leftist agenda and the Left’s Islamic allies. Meanwhile, […]
New York Times admits that “withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal has paid dividends”
When even the New York Times and its house Never-Trumper Bret Stephens are applauding Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal, you know that the results have been decisively in Trump’s favor. I detail just how bad the Iran nuclear deal really was in The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Iran. That many, if […]
New York Times orders readers to “celebrate” election of pro-Sharia BDS supporter Rep. Ilhan Omar
And there is no doubt about it: New York Times readers and other Leftists are indeed celebrating. They will celebrate anew when Omar introduces anti-Israel legislation in Congress. They will celebrate all the more when she fails to support women’s rights that counter Sharia provisions. They will keep celebrating every measure against free societies and […]
Robert Spencer: New York Times Features a Muslim to Lecture Trump Supporters About Jesus
My latest at the Geller Report: Three days before Christmas, the New York Times ran a piece by the sinister propagandist Wajahat Ali, entitled “What a Muslim Could Teach Trump Supporters About Jesus.” What he could teach them, in short, is that Jesus was an open-borders globalist Socialist, and if they aren’t, either, then they […]
New York Times: “What a Muslim Could Teach Trump Supporters About Jesus”
Just imagine the New York Times publishing an article entitled “What a Christian Could Teach Supporters of the Saudi Crown Prince About Muhammad,” or “What a Christian Could Teach Supporters of the Ayatollah Khamenei About Islam.” This is not to compare Trump either to the Saudi Crown Prince or the Iranian Supreme Leader, although many […]
New York Times photographer posted support for “Palestinian” jihad terrorism on Instagram
Will the New York Times fire him? No, they’ll probably give him a raise. “New York Times photographer posted support for terrorism on Instagram,” by Eylon Levy, i24News, December 14, 2018: A Pulitzer-nominated New York Times photographer posted support for terrorism on his social media, i24NEWS has discovered. Wissam Nassar posted pictures of the suspected […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: New York Times Celebrates Muhammad as ‘Paragon of Compassion’
Seventh century fake news from a cynical and deceptive propagandist. My latest in PJ Media: “Happy Birthday, Muhammad,” the New York Times proclaimed happily last Tuesday in a propaganda piece by Haroon Moghul, the author of a book confidently entitled How to Be a Muslim. I’d say it was a new low for the Times […]
