2016 Presidential

The cast of ABC’s The View is still re-litigating 2016 in 2022. That much was apparent during a segment Wednesday where they suggested female politicians supposedly had to complete with being “likable” while their male counterparts didn’t. In the course of this griping, co-host Sunny Hostin lashed out at women who voted for former President Trump by suggesting they “voted against their best…

On Tiffany Cross's MSNBC show, regular guest Sarah Kendzior floated the bizarre conspiracy theory that "Trump was installed as the President of the United States in order to weaken the alliances that were preventing Putin from achieving his goals, alliances like NATO."

The "independent fact checkers" really wanted to downplay anything John Durham was saying about lawyers for the Clinton campaign snooping around in the Trump team's internet activities. They seized on words that Fox News used that sounded like active verbs meant to sell a story -- in this case, that Team Clinton paid to "infiltrate" the Trump orbit.

While many of her colleagues and their respective networks have refused to cover the bombshell news in the Durham investigation, Fox’s Jacqui Heinrich brought it up during Monday’s White House press briefing, repeatedly pressing Principal Deputy Press Secretary and former MSNBCer Karine Jean-Pierre for answers on whether Team Biden supports spying on political opponents.

Is the strain of Joe Biden's pitiful polling numbers getting to Biden fanboy Joe Scarborough? The Morning Joe host has long been a leading Trump hater but Thursday morning seemed to be the first time he indulged in violent fantasies about the former president. It happened during a segment on Boris Johnson's woes in the UK and Scarborough hoped Trump would "bleed out politically"…

On his MSNBC show, Jonathan Capehart highlights a Canadian newspaper headline about the possibility of Canada intervening in the US if Trumpism wins and the US is seen as "hurtling toward possible violence and autocracy." And guest Fiona Hill describes Canadian concerns that many Americans will try to cross the border into Canada as "refugees" in 2024.

On Friday's Morning Joe, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough lauded The New Yorker editor David Remnick for an article he published excoriating Donald Trump supporters immediately after the former President's election in 2016. The frequent MSNBC guest then compared the 1/6 Capitol riots to "climate change" allegedly leading to natural disasters after decades of the…

Alexander Vindman, a retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel who figured prominently in the Trump-Ukraine scandal, was a featured guest in the Season 11 finale of HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm that aired on Sunday night. Vindman was hailed by Democrats and other Trump deranged Americans as a brave hero for his testimony against Trump in the first impeachment.

As Christmas approaches, the network “news” divisions have showered the Bidens with gifts, both NBC and CBS. You didn’t even have to win the presidency to be handed a shiny platter of publicity. On Sunday Today, NBC’s Willie Geist offered 12 minutes of softballs to Hillary Clinton.

On Thursday night, it was curtains for Brian Williams’s 28-year career at NBC and sister network MSNBC. Incredibly, the serial liar remained employed for six years at MSNBC following the revelation that he had embellished and fabricated stories during his time at the Peacock network. With that, NewsBusters decided to take a look back with Williams's 20 worst moments at MSNBC after his…

On Wednesday, NBC’s Today show swooned over failed 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton living in an alternate reality where she won the election and delivered a fantasy “victory” speech. The bizarre display was part of the former Secretary of State’s upcoming MasterClass seminar and clips of it will be exclusively featured during a fawning interview with Willie Geist for the…

2845. That was how many words that the Washington Post fact checker Glenn Kessler used on Thursday to try to explain away why the Washington Post, along with much of the rest of the media, for years treated the now-discredited Steele dossier as some kind of investigative "bombshell" endangering Trump.

This week's episode of Family Guy included an election-connected joke about Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg. Does that mean the series bravely attacked the unethical role Zuckerberg played in influencing the 2020 election through private funding of election offices? Of course not. Instead, the show pushed ridiculous 5-year-old claims that Facebook data mining…

The main source of the Steele dossier hyped by CNN and much of the media has been indicted for lying to the FBI so Erik Wemple of the Washington Post wonders if CNN will correct the record about their claim that the dossier was corroborated.
