Jon Stewart Jon Stewart returned to his Monday night Daily Show post fired up about the Super Bowl, and particularly the outrage from conservative pundits such as Megyn Kelly and Benny Johnson over Bad Bunny's half-time show, which he performed, as usual entirely in Spanish. Stewart played numerous clips of Fox News hosts et al complaining that they couldn't understand the Spanish, then cut to a clip of Turning Point USA All-American Halftime Show headliner, Kid Rock, singing his hit Bawitdaba, with its gibberish chorus.
CNews is the country's most-watched 24-hours TV news station but it scarcely reports the news. It provides a running commentary of loud-mouthed opinion. Emmanuel Macron is a charlatan; the Left is wicked; immigrants are mostly violent criminals; Donald Trump is a breath of fresh air; Vladimir Putin has some faults but many qualities; France is swamped with crime because of the moral weakness of the ruling elite.
For Lowell There are things which, said and true, are of this generation's past; of fighting freedom's battles and of taking off the mask- stories of the actions taken, to blot out the blights of sin, how heroes and the valorous fought their enemies within, Would we be traitors to our bugle, which beckons with its call? - They won freedom for their people but in fine print said: be damned.
For most of 2025, we were either watching one of the playwright's comedies or bracing for one. In June, we had almost simultaneous productions: Taylor Mac's "Prosperous Fools" (an update of "Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme") and Jeffrey Hatcher's fizzy adaptation of "Le Malade Imaginaire." And, this fall, one version of the comedy "Tartuffe" (at the House of the Redeemer) had barely closed before New York Theatre Workshop premièred its own.
What if he were faithful in his private life, despite publicly promoting infidelity? Such a scenario contains what many consider the main ingredients of hypocrisy: failing to practice privately what one preaches publicly. A study tested whether people would agree. It showed one group of people an article about Biderman that simply mentioned he had promoted adultery; a separate group saw the article with additional information that it had been discovered that Biderman was personally faithful in private.
When we were young, poor, and renting, my husband was always a slob; he never picked up after himself, left his dirty and clean clothes together in a mountain on his side of the bed, would rather die than wash a dish, etc. His car was putrid. As a medium clean person (but not a neat freak), I was annoyed by the clutter and grossness.
Gov. Newsom is acting like an extortionist. His threat to withhold university funding unless schools publicly oppose President Trump's demands is political coercion. Public universities should not be strong-armed into adopting the governor's preferred positions. Their mission is education and open inquiry, not serving as instruments of partisan pressure. What makes this especially troubling is the hypocrisy. Newsom built his political brand by criticizing Trump for using federal funds as a political weapon.
I think the problem with the Bill Burrs and the Chappelles, or anybody in general, is if you're going to pitch like Aziz Ansari if you're going to pitch woke bullsh*t here about people and people being oppressed and violence against women and all the shit you throw up every day, spare us when you go over there and take a check
Relying on charges of hypocrisy to defend attacks on free speech is a dodge. It willfully neglects principled defenses of liberal norms in order to justify abandoning these principles. Just as dictators assume that all leaders abuse human rights and gangsters think that everyone would break the law if given the chance, people who move to censor their opponents are quick to insist that they are just doing what their rivals were already doing, so quit complaining.
India boycotts Pakistan across all forums except multinational cricket. And that's because it stands to lose too much money. India's most recent encounter with Pakistan in the Asia Cup was celebrated as a patriotic spectacle: a win dedicated to the armed forces and those affected by the Pahalgam attack. Such declarations, however, expose something deeper: a strategy of playing politics with sport, hypocrisy masked as principle.
Christopher Rufo took six months to contradict his own advice. In February, the conservative activist wrote that social-media posts "should no longer be grounds for automatic social and professional annihilation." This view won't come as a surprise to anyone who has followed Rufo's long crusade against left-wing cancel culture. By August, however, he had emulated his enemies, arousing outrage over a journalist's old tweets. The episode demonstrates not just his own hypocrisy but also why campaigns against unwelcome speech should always be resisted.
"You must have been beautiful when you were young," Greta Lee says to Willem Dafoe at one point in Kent Jones's Late Fame, and for those of us who well remember the actor's younger years - back when his skin was porcelain, his cheekbones sea-cliff sharp, and his eyes so angelically haunted - it's hard not to shout "Amen!" back at the screen.
"Duddridge remains in the property but says the threat of eviction has caused her and her family significant stress, while Labour has accused Pedley of hypocrisy given his party's opposition to no-fault evictions."
