Liberal Media Dominance Ends, 'Right-Wing Influencers' Ruin Narratives
Once upon a time….a long, long time ago…the media world was a very different place.

Hayes Dubs Peace Prize Winner a 'Weird' 'Consolation Prize' For Trump
President Donald Trump did not win this year’s Nobel Peace Prize. Instead, that honor went to Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, and while you might think such a self-styled champion of democracy like MSNBC’s All In host Chris Hayes would applaud the selection, he instead ridiculed it as a “weird kind of ego consolation prize” for Trump. Also on Friday, Hayes would…

ABC Harps on Caller to Speaker, Claims He’s Kept Government Closed
Though it has received play on all three major broadcast networks, ABC chose on Thursday night and Friday morning to emphasize an anonymous C-SPAN call to House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) of a woman worried her children “could die” if Johnson fails to reopen the government and ensure federal employees are paid.

Comedian Passed Over for Daily Show: Trumpers Are ‘C-Average Students’
On Thursday, ABC News’s The View had their most bitterly anti-Trump guest of season 29 (so far) in so-called “comedian” Hasan Minhaj.

Daily Show's Josh Johnson Begrudgingly Applauds Trump For Gaza Deal
Ever since its first post-October 7 show, Comedy Central’s The Daily Show has been the worst of the late night comedy shows on the Israel-Hamas War, so it was good to see host-of-the-week Josh Johnson applaud President Trump for his role in securing a ceasefire agreement that looks like it could lead to the end of the war, even if he did so somewhat reluctantly.
