Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee. Have you heard what the New York Times executive editor has done? His name is Dean Baquet. He has banned &#8212; you ready for this? The executive editor of the New York Times has banned all of his reporters from appearing on MSNBC and CNN, specifically Lawrence O\u2019Donnell and Rachel Maddow on MSNBC, and Don Lemon, the smartest man in TV, by the way, on CNN.<\/p>\n<p>And do you know why? He says those programs are too opinionated, and he\u2019s afraid that his reporters, if they appear on those programs, will be assumed to be as biased as the hosts of the programs are. Ha! Is this not great? I\u2019m not making this up!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-310633\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/APP-053119-NY-Times-Rush-Shocked.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/APP-053119-NY-Times-Rush-Shocked.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/APP-053119-NY-Times-Rush-Shocked-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>\u201cThe New York Times is said to be cracking down on its reporters appearing on cable news shows it considers to be &#8216;too partisan.\u2019\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/news\/2019\/05\/the-times-gives-maddow-the-cold-shoulder\">Vanity Fair has the details.<\/a> They published this report which alleged that PMSNBC\u2019s Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O\u2019Donnell and Don Lemon at CNN have made the New York Times no-go list. No New York Times reporter can appear on those programs.<\/p>\n<p>The magazine, Vanity Fair, began its story \u201cby alleging the Times\u2019 financial editor David Enrich had initially accepted an invitation to appear on The Rachel Maddow Show May 20 to discuss a report involving President Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner\u2019s transactions with Deutsche Bank, but had to ultimately turn down the appearance after he informed the [New York Times] communications department.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Essentially the PR department at the New York Times, \u201cYou\u2019re not going on those shows. You\u2019re not gonna talk about Trump and Jared and Deutsche Bank on those shows because those shows are too partisan and we don\u2019t want people to think that our reporters are partisan.\u201d (laughing) I\u2019ll tell you, though, there is something fascinating about this.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sources told the magazine the Times\u2019 executive editor Dean Baquet expressed concerns certain primetime shows are becoming more opinionated and that reporters who appear on their shows would be &#8216;perceived as being aligned\u2019 with the show\u2019s politics. &#8216;He thinks it\u2019s a real issue,\u2019 one source said, another adding, \u201cTheir view is that, intentionally or not, it affiliates the Times reporter with a bias.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Do you know what this means? It means a whole bunch of things. It means, even at the New York Times, they think these programs have long ago gone way overboard and don\u2019t want to have anything to do with it. They want to be able to do their bias without having any questions about their credibility. They believe appearing on Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O\u2019Donnell and Don Lemon is gonna destroy the credibility of New York Times reporters.<\/p>\n<p>Why would that be? Could it be that there\u2019s no audience to speak of on Don Lemon\u2019s show, and Rachel Maddow is bleeding audience, she has been losing audience since the turn of the year, and especially since the Mueller report came out.<\/p>\n<p>What we\u2019re learning here is that the people that watch MSNBC don\u2019t really have any loyalty to the hosts there. What they had was a vampire\u2019s blood lust for fake news, and the fake news was that Trump was guilty, that Trump colluded, Trump was gonna be hitting the highway.<\/p>\n<p>Mueller was gonna come back, they were promised, MSNBC viewers were promised, they were assured every night multiple times for two years that Trump was toast, and Trump is not toast. So there\u2019s no reason to watch anymore. You can\u2019t get what you need from MSNBC.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/news\/2019\/05\/the-times-gives-maddow-the-cold-shoulder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-310610\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/APP-tearaway-Vanity-Fair-HIVE-053119.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/APP-tearaway-Vanity-Fair-HIVE-053119.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/APP-tearaway-Vanity-Fair-HIVE-053119-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>If you\u2019re relying on those people to tell you what\u2019s gonna happen and they swear it\u2019s gonna happen and they promise you and they assure you and then it doesn\u2019t happen, those people are in big trouble. The story could be looked at in any number of ways. Rachel Maddow &#8212; I don\u2019t want to single her out. That whole network, MSNBC, is totally dependent on fake news.<\/p>\n<p>Now, let\u2019s carry forward \u2019cause I got the Bill Barr sound bites coming up here in a moment. If multiple investigations, the Barr investigation and the Horowitz inspector general investigation, if those investigations document and establish an attempt by Hillary Clinton and the Obama Department of Justice of trying to fix the 2016 election, of trying to reverse the results of that reelection, of trying to unseat a president by obtaining warrants to spy under false pretenses, then what the hell is gonna happen to MSNBC\u2019s ratings then?<\/p>\n<p>And don\u2019t think this isn\u2019t a factor in the New York Times editor assessing whether or not he wants his reporters on this network. Everybody in that town knows what\u2019s coming. As I said yesterday, we\u2019re in a race against the coup people to get to the bottom of this and to report findings first, and they know it, Mueller\u2019s press conference, he knows it. All these people are very much aware of what\u2019s coming, including in the Drive-By Media.<\/p>\n<p>And if these investigations actually reveal what we\u2019re pretty sure we know happened, then what is going to be left of places like CNN and PMSNBC? They\u2019ve looked like clowns because of these crap conspiracy theories the last two years. And if this is not at least one reason for the New York Times decision, I\u2019d love to know what else it is they are thinking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: You want to hear something else funny?
