Can you call the “Front Page”, the “Front Page”? I would like to read it every day, but can’t find it! TGIF is called “TGIF”. Why does the Front Page have a different name everyday? I wait for TGIF. Then it appears, named “TGIF”. Then I read it. Please suggest a way for me find the Front Page everyday, ‘cuz right now, finding the front page is like solving a Monday NYT crossword: Not impossible, but definitely takes some work.

“Journalists Against Journalism” answers Ollie’s question as to why Trump is not running away with it.

Please, please, please, watch this. What Kamala Harris did to black single moms jailing them for truancy and then lying about it:

The winner of the election will be whoever runs the marginally less retarded campaign.

". . . regulating corporations and pressuring China and India to stop flooding the air and oceans with poison. But the modern environmental movement has nothing to do with that. That’s colonialism. The modern environmental movement is coming for the tiny plastic hats on hummus. It’s all about creating annoyances for upper-middle-class Westerners."

That's on the money.

To: Bari Weiss and Peter Savodnik,

Keep the focus on the Amy Wax story. U. Penn, and the other like institutions, need to feel the wrath of the public opinion justice system for their unjust and maybe illegal treatment of Amy Wax. Her "crime" is, using her rights granted by the First Amendment to express an opinion.

I hope she sues U. Penn and sets up a GoFundMe so I can support her and free speech.

It’s comical to watch TFP hypocritically attack Ruhle for being in the tank for Harris when TFP is so nakedly in the tank for Trump, as well as Zionism. Ruhle works for MSNBC which is as openly and unashamedly pro-Democratic as Fox is pro-Republican.

I like Madeleine better than Oliver.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE TFP don't start with the whole "without proof" line that many journalists have been using with Trump since 2016. There is a better way to right stories. If someone makes a false claim, explain why it is one, not just drop the "without evidence" line especially for a story involving antisemitism.

'Penn Professor Amy Wax Punished for “Inconvenient Facts”'

This title correctly sums up the anti-academic actions of U Penn toward Professor Wax. It also reflects the reality of the neo-Marxist left that dominates our universities and shapes the views of their students. Just as with American journalism and K12 education, our universities are almost entirely corrupted and unworthy of our population. U Penn, along with many others (American and Canadian), should be investigated, defunded, and reformed or closed.

"Ruhle claims to be a journalist. Her obligation is supposed to be to her viewers and the truth."

Ha, ha; good one. Haven't you been paying attention for the last decades? So called "journalists" first loyalty is to the Democrat Party. They are proud of that. Their obligation after the Dem Party is far left theories and policies of society, race, and sex. Why do you think the public no longer has any faith in the media?

Are traditional news journalists envious of fashion writers, music critics, and other tastemakers?

When you consider how many young people want to be influencers ( https://www.npr.org/2023/04/17/1170524085/gen-zs-dream-job-in-the-influencer-industry ), is this how young people now see journalism?

Madeleine, you are the best! This is stunning!

"Ruhle’s attack on her own supposed vocation was depressing enough. But then, things got even worse. After she defended Harris for not sitting for interviews, Ruhle was rewarded by the Harris campaign. . . with an interview."

Can you refer me to at least one story you've run about the vacuousness of Trump's policy positions? You're constantly running stories accusing Harris of failing to detail many of her policies. Where's your touted truth in journalism? You appear to be a Trump hack.

I watched the Bill Maher episode mentioned above, and I think you've got it wrong. Brett was making the case that his personal vote for Harris was dependent upon her cooperation with journalists. Stephanie Ruhle, and Bill as well, were not arguing as journalists, nor for or against journalism; they were arguing as voters who are facing an existential threat if Trump wins. I have to agree. In fact it was refreshing to hear from a journalist who is not so pouty or self-important as to threaten to withhold their vote from the only viable alternative to Trump on the ballot.

You are wrong

Stevens was saying Harris has to at least tell us what her policies will be if she wants his vote.

He clearly stated he won’t vote for Trump but also as clearly said he wouldn’t vote for Harris just because she isn’t Trump.

You are as lacking in ethics and understanding as Ruhle is.

Lacking in ethics? And understanding? Thank you so much! LOL!
