The Second Half: CBS/NBC Give Jan. 6 Over 80% Evening News Airtime
As NewsBusters documented Thursday morning, the anniversary of January 6 was their Super Bowl as the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) spent nearly 90-combined-minutes obsessing over the riot at the Capitol like their political careers depended on it. That infatuation cared over through half-time (to stick with the football nomenclature) to their evening newscasts where CBS and NBC each…

Libs Blame ‘Governor’ Youngkin for Highway Mess, Nets Skip Actual Gov
As a winter storm slammed Virginia on Monday, a disaster developed on the busy I-95 highway. Thousands of motorists, including babies, were trapped in freezing temperatures for 12 hours or more, low on gas and food. All of this with no help seemingly coming from the state’s governor. Liberals on Twitter took to blasting new Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin. Except... he’s not governor and…

Four Times the Nets BURIED Crazed Leftists Bullying Manchin or Sinema
Joe Manchin on Sunday likely doomed Joe Biden’s massive $2 trillion spending plan and the media reaction was predictably hyperbolic. There were audible gasps on ABC when the news that he would vote no broke. The New York Times on Monday’s front page accused him of “deserting” the President. Incendiary talk by liberal journalists has been amplified by real-world bullying of Manchin and his…

UNREAL! Journos Blame Biden’s Problems On Trump
These journalists REALLY need to get out of their New York-DC bubbles. In just the past couple of weeks they’ve asserted that Joe Biden is getting “worse” press coverage than Donald Trump, that Biden’s low approval ratings are somehow Trump’s fault and a GOP takeover of Congress would “imperil democracy.” The following are the most zany media observations and outbursts from the month of…

Last week CNN’s Oliver Darcy reported that the Biden administration had been holding private meetings with major news outlets, in which they pressured the media to add more positive spin to their economic coverage. It looks like CNN…

Now that a Democrat is in charge, he has a new obsession: Moderate Democrat Joe Manchin. Rather than hold Joe Biden to account, Meyers slimes the West Virginia Senator as a corrupt, “ignoble” politician who “s****” all over the President’s agenda.”
