  • “Racism”: Want to Cancel Hulk Hogan? Fine, Then Muhammad Ali’s Got to Go, Too

    Image created using Grok AI. By Selwyn Duke It wasn’t long after legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan’s passing that we heard the condemnations. Don’t honor him, the nattering ne’er-do-wells insisted—he was a stone cold “racist.” When evaluating this, too, I want you to consider the following quite telling and damning line: “A black man should be…

  • Will Media Matters Shatter? Left-wing Smear Group May Collapse Over Lawsuits and Investigations

    Image: Public Domain/Wikimedia Commons By Selwyn Duke Some people may call it the chickens coming home to roost. Media Matters for America (MMfA), a George Soros-funded left-wing censorship group, reportedly may be on the verge of collapse. The organization is reeling after a series of lawsuits and government investigations, which are straining its already frazzled…

  • Old Media Dying: Waning CBS Cancels Colbert. Is Kimmel Next?

    By Selwyn Duke “So, for the first time in history, Americans have stopped watching NBC, CBS TV, and ABC,” reported commentator Bill O’Reilly Thursday. “Their viewing level has fallen below 20 percent — unheard of.” “And it’s because they’re boring and they’re far left,” O’Reilly elaborated. “That’s the two reasons.” The latest casualty of this legacy-media…

  • France: Almost 150 Women at Music Festivals Attacked; Many Injected With Unknown Substances

    By Selwyn Duke It just keeps on getting more and more bizarre, life in the modern, “diversified” West. In recent years we’ve heard about knife, acid, and vehicular attacks in Europe and sometimes the United States. Now comes news that at least 145 music festival attendees, almost exclusively female, have been assaulted with syringes across…

  • Corporate Media: Don’t Believe Your Lyin’ Eyes — L.A. Riots Are Mostly Right-wing Myth

    By Selwyn Duke It was in 2020 that CNN made itself a laughingstock by running the chyron, “Fiery But Mostly Peaceful Protests….” Now CNN, and the rest of the corporate media, is at it again, this time trivializing Los Angeles-riot violence. They have once more sunk to comical depths, too. The rioting began Friday in…

  • Salon Complains: “Minneapolis Isn’t Sorry About George Floyd”

    Image credit: Leonhard Lenz/Wikimedia Commons By Selwyn Duke We now live, some would say, in an upside-down world. Back in 1934, police ambushed criminals Bonnie and Clyde by a remote highway, firing approximately 130 rounds. There were so many holes in the corpses, the undertaker later said, that he had trouble embalming them. But the…

  • Douglas Murray to Joe Rogan: You’re Platforming RADICALS Who Mislead

    By Selwyn Duke Is one man’s radical another man’s reasoned voice? You might suppose that could be the thinking in this relativistic age. But this certainly wasn’t the perspective of British journalist Douglas Murray while appearing on Joe Rogan’s podcast last Thursday. In fact, Murray called Rogan out on the show, saying he was platforming…

  • Looking for Unicorns: The Search for a “Joe Rogan of the Left”

    By Selwyn Duke My, the worm truly has turned — at least halfway. It wasn’t that long ago, really, that conservatives lamented how “mainstream” media “controlled the narrative.” Back in 2011, in fact, Professor Tim Groseclose estimated that “media bias aids Democratic candidates by about 8 to 10 percentage points in a typical election.” Now,…

  • Trump’s Congressional Address Polls Bigly While Dems Flail and Fail

    Image created using AI. By Selwyn Duke Is it time to retire the donkey and make an angry old man waving a cane the Democratic Party’s new symbol? Such a display, of course, was precisely what got Representative Al Green (D-Texas) expelled from President Donald Trump’s address to Congress on Tuesday. It well reflects the…

  • The Fakery That is the War on Fake News

    By Selwyn Duke Is it true that one man’s misinformation is another man’s salvation? Or is it actually true that what man censors is sometimes God’s sublimity? Author and university lecturer Nolan Higdon may not be pondering anything so ethereal. What he is sure of is that, as he wrote Sunday at Salon, the “war…
