It’s media day in our year-end Three Martini Lunch awards and Jim and Greg have plenty to say about how things were covered – if they were covered at all. Specifically, they look at the stories the mainstream media covered far too much, the ones they conveniently ignored because they didn’t fit their narrative, and they highlight what they saw as the best stories of 2022.
Elon Musk
Twitter Suspensions, School Mask Mandates Return, Buttigieg Bails Again
Listen to “Twitter Suspensions, School Mask Mandates Return, Buttigieg Bails Again” on Spreaker.
DeSantis vs. Apple, Biden’s Haiti Problem, Will McCarthy Have the Votes?
Listen to “DeSantis vs. Apple, Biden’s Haiti Problem, Will McCarthy Have the Votes?” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they cheer Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for blasting Apple’s nauseating practices of silencing American voices it disagrees with and groveling before the Chinese government by making it harder for protesters there to get their messages out. They also groan as the crisis in Haiti is on the brink of collapse and the Biden administration fails to get other nations to take the lead on the response. And they discuss whether Kevin McCarthy will have the 218 votes needed to become speaker after at least two GOP members say they won’t back him on the House floor come January.
Iran Deal Imploding? Biden’s Student Loans Stunt, ‘Algorithmic Justice’
Listen to “Iran Deal Imploding? Biden’s Student Loans Stunt, ‘Algorithmic Justice'” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they welcome what appears to be the Biden administration’s grudging admission that there won’t be a new Iran nuclear deal. They also hammer President Biden for reportedly getting ready to pander to his base through massive student loan forgiveness and explain who will really benefit. And they find the timing curious as Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey demands “algorithmic justice” after Elon Musk buys Twitter.

Musk Buys Twitter, Kerry’s War on Gas, McMullin’s Bogus Pledge
Listen to “Musk Buys Twitter, Kerry’s War on Gas, McMullin’s Bogus Pledge” on Spreaker.
Join Jim and Greg as they mostly welcome Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter and promises of speech protection and dissect why so many on the left are hysterical about this news. They also sigh as Biden climate envoy John Kerry declares war on natural gas and promises it will be dead within 10 years. And they get a kick out of Utah “independent” U.S. Senate candidate Evan McMullin’s empty vow to caucus with neither Republicans nor Democrats if he is elected this year.
