While communities in Maui were being incinerated and the list of the dead continued to grow (surpassing 100 as of the writing of this piece), President Biden was publicly flaunting his storied callousness as he continued his vacation and gave a firm “no comment” when asked about the wildfires. It being election season, CNN News Center knew they needed to do something to distract people. So, on…

Publicly revealed on Wednesday, WarnerBros. Discovery tapped former BBC Director-General and former CEO/president of The New York Times Company to lead CNN as it continues to struggle not only with ratings, but improving its image from the days of the Jeffrey Zucker-led circus that lived for spewing venom at Donald Trump and the GOP writ large.

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins welcomed former director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management and current Florida Democratic Rep. Jared Moskowitz on to the Wednesday edition of The Source in the aftermath of Hurricane Idaila hitting the state and wondered how could government mitigate such storms if Republicans won’t cooperate in passing progressive climate policy.

Gold Star families who lost loved ones in the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan are not happy with President Biden, or the State Department, or the Pentagon. This might explain why the networks have tried to avoid these people, since they seem like guardians of whatever popularity Biden still has.

On Wednesday evening, MSNBC’s All In host Chris Hayes proved that he has the same intelligence and sophistication as a primitive tribal shaman who blamed their enemies for the weather when he lashed out at governor and presidential candidate Ron DeSantis (R-FL). The MSNBC host accused him and Florida Republicans of “actually trying to make [climate change] worse.” 

On Tuesday the PBS NewsHour explored how some investment firms and state comptrollers who have built their clients financial portfolios using the philosophy of “ESG” (environmental, social, and governance factors) ware facing "backlash." ESG investment standards could include investing in companies that fight so-called climate change, or investing in companies that make “equity and diversity”…

NBC Nightly News decided to inexplicably whine and cry over the state of Texas taking over the Houston Independent School District which NBC even admitted was failing. Yet, for some reason this was still a problem and enough of a story for them to dedicate an entire segment to and use as yet another hammer to hit conservatives over the head with. 

Henry Rodgers at The Daily Caller reported Rep. Matt Gaetz (R.-Fla.) wrote a letter to NPR and the CPB demanding answers about why a Baltimore NPR station is airing a Louis Farrakhan radio show on Sunday nights. 

During Wednesday’s Doocy Time at the White House press briefing, one of the questions from Fox White House correspondent Peter Doocy drew looks of incredulousness and disgust from liberal journalists seated next to and behind him. Doocy’s crime? Asking White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre if the response to Hurricane Idalia was smoother vs. the Hawaii wildfires because President…

It was just a matter of time before choice became mandatory. Last week, a federal judge denied a request by parents of students in the Washington, D.C. suburb of Montgomery County, Maryland, to be able to remove their children from classrooms when books containing LGBTQ+ characters are read aloud. Christian and Muslim parents had sued the school system, claiming such books force religious…

According to new details from the depositions of Under Armour founder Kevin Plank and MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle filed last week, the two’s years-long relationship was more dubious and unethical than previously thought. Their own testimony details how Ruhle was gifted a phone for private correspondents and was funneled insider information about Under Armour’s business dealings.

After Monday’s smashing return to the White House Briefing Room, Fox’s Peter Doocy had a new topic to do battle with Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre over. Monday’s foray concerned Biden family corruption and another example of the expanding nanny state, but Tuesday focused on a captured ISIS sympathizer that had been working to smuggle people across the U.S.-Mexico border.

Morning Joe emphasized politics would be put aside as Hurricane Idalia roars. Then minutes later in live coverage, the very first question to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis during his briefing on the state's response was: "What do you think about Trump? You know, he's a resident here in Florida, and he hasn't commented on Idalia at all yet." DeSantis said "It's not my concern."

As part of the network’s never-ending quest to one up itself when it comes to absurd takes about education in the state of Florida, MSNBC’s Tuesday edition of Alex Wagner Reports ran a sob story on Catherine “Libby” Harrity, a former New College student who was kicked out of the school for spitting on conservative board of trustees member Christopher Rufo.
