Woodward and Bernstein didn’t have this many un-named sources— “A long time media exec” “one producer” “One senior reporter” “An editor” “A former Opinions columnist” “A former classmate “Another person” “A former Free Press employee” And many more… newyorker.com/magazine/2026/…

Venezuela used to be much wealthier than Poland, which was suffering under socialism. Then Poland implemented free-market and capitalist principles and enjoyed an economic boom. Venezuela chose socialism, which brought poverty and misery to its people. That’s the difference.

"On too many stories, the press has missed the story. Because we've taken into account the perspective of advocates and not the average American. Or we put too much weight in the analysis of academics or elites, and not enough on you." That changes now. The new CBS Evening News starts Monday at 6:30 p.m. ET on CBS.

TWITTER FILES: KATIE COURIC EDITION @katiecouric says Bari Weiss is "compromising" journalism, adding, “This idea that these corporations are putting pressure on their journalists is so repugnant." nypost.com/2025/11/20/med…

Much of the coverage by the BBC and its allies this morning is utterly unhinged. This is not “a coup”. This is not “a right-wing plot”. This is not “Boris Johnson”. This is not “Robbie Gibb”. This is about a taxpayer-funded broadcaster which on everything from immigration to trans, British history to Israel, Donald Trump to our borders, has relentlessly pursued a systemically biased liberal progressive groupthink that represents no more than 15% of the country, and which is now being called out.

I don't think the progressives understand the deep anger and sense of loss over the BBC We *had* something wonderful And you corrupted it with your grubby little politics and you destroyed it. The public are rightly sad and rightly angry

A fantastic piece from @EWErickson ewerickson.substack.com/p/did-you-not-…

Once in a while I catch NPR in an Uber these days, and HOLY SHIT the cons are totally right about it. It's just pure woke politics stuff nonstop. I swear in 2019 it wasn't like that.

I get a version of this response every time I write about viewpoint diversity, and it is mind-boggling to watch people simultaneously insisting that academia is super-open-minded and empirical and in no way a progressive bubble, and also that conservatives are all fascists.

So, NPR Code Switch did an episode on “what Israel means to American Jews” and only talked to anti-Zionists? Incredible.

She was as warm and kind and witty in person as she was on the radio. Susan Stamberg made me so proud to work at NPR in its glory days.

A rare moment of agreement with the Senator.

I would love to know what exactly makes Nobel Prize winner María Corina Machado “far right”…

Absolute perfection. Avinatan Or’s boss at @nvidia writes to him, read till the end: “Avinatan Or, I hope you have a good excuse for not showing up to work at NVIDIA for 738 days. But every Sunday morning for two years, the head of NVIDIA Israel’s HR, Gideon Rosenberg, sent an email to all employees counting the days you were in captivity and calling everyone to join him for a reminder vigil in front of the Kirya gate, held every Sunday evening. Even the global CEO, Jensen Huang, mentioned your name in every quarterly internal meeting, telling 40,000 employees that their colleague was being held captive by Hamas. How wonderful that you’ve returned home. I heard you have an amazing girlfriend who’s eagerly waiting for you, loving parents, that you work at a place that cares for you, and I also have some pretty good news about what’s happened with your stocks over the past two years.”

Obviously there are worse things than hurting a dog. I just can’t think of any.

@davidfolkenflik @ChamliesCharles Correct

@ChamliesCharles @uberliner I've written about Uri and his essay extensively. He was one of my editors. No one has written him out of the story.

"... sparked in part by an accusatory essay in 2024 from a senior business editor ..." Interesting that you wouldn't find it informative to list @uberliner in your piece.

this is how NPR is characterizing a shooting at an ICE facility in which the terrorist responsible wrote “ANTI-ICE” on one of the casings
