Go Figure: Nets Treat ‘Explosive,’ ‘Staggering’ Atlantic Story as Fact
On Friday morning, the “big three” broadcast network newscasts treated the anonymously sourced Atlantic piece claiming President Trump called fallen U.S. soldiers “losers” and “suckers” as fact, huffing about how “explosive,” “staggering,” and “stinging” the allegations were that have put the President on “defense.”
Nets Label Victim But Won't Call Antifa Murder Suspect 'Left-Wing'
It’s a sickening double standard when the media won’t call out the politics of a murder suspect but will instead eagerly politicize the victim he admitted to killing.

Reid Compares Antifa, BLM to Civil Rights Movement (She Really Did)
When thinking about Antifa and/or Black Lives Matter, most NewsBusters readers and many Americans wouldn’t reply with traits as such bipartisan, Christ-centered, diverse, non-violent, and peaceful that pertained to the Civil Rights Movement and specifically the Freedom Riders. But according to MSNBC’s ReidOut host Joy Reid on Thursday, they’re all alike because Antifa and Black Lives are not…
Double Standard: Nets Tout Biden Kenosha Visit After Hating Trump's
After President Trump visited the riot-torn city of Kenosha, Wisconsin on Tuesday, the liberal media were outraged because state and local leaders (who they failed to label as Democrats) had asked him not to come.

Reid Doesn't Apologize to Muslims, But Paints Right as Full of Terror

MSNBC Doesn't Understand Math, Ignores THIS Key point on Biden Voters
MSNBC White House correspondent Peter Alexander joined Andrea Mitchell on her Wednesday show to discuss the latest election polling.

HYPOCRITES: The NY Times Cares About Some Violence, Just Not THIS
Coverage from the New York Times of the spate of left-wing rioting and attacks on conservatives remains stuck in denial mode, as unwittingly demonstrated in “Three Conspiracy Theories, Debunked."

CBS CENSORS Andrew Cuomo Threatening Physical Harm to Trump
Imagine if Donald Trump had done this: An unhinged New York Governor Andrew Cuomo on Wednesday night threatened physical harm upon the President if he visits New York City again.

Non-Virtual: AG Barr SCHOOLS CNN on Racism, Antifa, Mail-in-Ballots
In a wide-ranging and in-person interview on Wednesday with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, Attorney General William Barr turned the set of The Situation Room into a classroom to school the network on everything from accusations of systemic racism in the justice system, to Antifa’s cross-country violence, to how people were “playing with fire” in the form of mail-in-ballots.
After Skipping Controversy, Nets Push Pelosi’s Salon ‘Setup’ Assertion
As NewsBusters documented Tuesday, the liberal broadcast networks completely blacked out Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s blowout fiasco, where video exposed her flouting local COVID regulations by getting her hair done inside a San Francisco salon, without a mask.

Univision Silent on Pelosi Blowout Fiasco
