While the national liberal networks tout Democrats fighting the GOP in red state legislatures, radical left-wing bills in blue states are going ignored. Media editor Bill D'Agostino explains his findings about five extreme Democrat legislative proposals on gender, abortion, and crime that are going ignored.

Don Lemon's firing was not mysterious, but we're in week two of trying to figure out why Fox parted ways with Tucker Carlson. New leaks to Tucker-hating liberal outlets seemed intended to damage the ex-Fox host's standing, but conservatives largely found they liked him more.

Saturday night's White House Correspondents Dinner demonstrated once again that journalists go soft and syrupy when Democrats are in power. Biden mocked the press, and they laughed with him. The reporters hired another leftist hack to do the "comedy" portion of the dinner.

A photograph showing that President Biden was holding a cue card with the first question at his brief press conference on Wednesday shows that press events are rigged. If the press had any self-respect, they wouldn't be sharing questions and they would show more anger and demand more access about being shut out by "historically coy" Joe Biden.

Tuesday's PBS NewsHour displayed a stark partisan contrast in coverage. It began with eleven minutes of promotional coverage of Biden's re-election announcement, with no mention of Hunter Biden. They then followed with eight minutes of negative coverage about the civil rape trial of Donald Trump as alleged by journalist E. Jean Carroll.

It was a media Monday, with two bombshells in cable news: Fox News announced they were parting ways with Tucker Carlson, and Don Lemon tweeted he was out at CNN. What could be happening at these networks? And what will happen? Bill D'Agostino, Nick Fondacaro, and Curtis Houck all join the table to make sense of the breaking news on cable news.

Surprise! Stories broke about the Hunter Biden investigation this week, and some networks actually covered them for a bit. Meanwhile, Michelle Obama drew typical goop about her "epic lines" and whether she would please her superfans by running for president someday.

When Fox News settled its lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems for a whopping $787 million, liberals still wanted to be mad that Fox didn't go to trial and didn't give a public apology. But they also wanted to claim the lawsuit was a crushing blow. Dan Schneider brings his legal experience to the conflicted aftermath.

The liberal media elite's lack of introspection is obvious when reporters like NPR's David Folkenflik try to claim that Fox News is uniquely building a business on serving an ideological base, as if that's not the model for NPR or The New York Times. In reality, under Trump, liberal media organs explicitly branded themselves as saving America and democracy from Trump as an essential…

President Biden's trip to his ancestral homeland of Ireland spurred a festive round of positive coverage from the networks. They ignored his gaffes and celebrated his Irish heritage. This is nothing like the way they viciously covered "Mitt the Twit" Romney in London in 2012.

Twitter went from tagging National Public Radio as "state-affiliated broadcasting" to "government-funded media," but NPR decided to leave Twitter in a huff because Twitter was damaging its so-called image of "editorial independence." But they sound like National Public Relations for Democrats...

President Biden routinely avoids interviews with real journalists and press conferences. But at the Easter Egg Roll, Joe and Jill were lightly massaged on the Today show by NBC morning weather man Al Roker. It felt like Valentine's Day. Plus: the major difference between covering young black leftist Democrats in Tennessee and the seasoned black conservative on the Supreme Court.

When leftist agitators storm state capitals, you can’t use those words. Leftist media won’t use labels for their own kind, and they won’t use “storm” for a left-wing disturbance inside a state capitol building. Two black legislators in Tennessee became instant media heroes when the Republican House majority expelled them for creating a disturbance on the House floor and  violating House rules…

The media's Trump obsession overflowed on Arraignment Day in New York City. They loved analyzing Trump's grumpiness, but they didn't love the actual indictment. Nick Fondacaro joins the show to discuss all the video tweets we put out to analyze the events.
