ABC and NBC Refuse to Cover DeSantis Israel Evacuation Efforts
Friday’s CBS Mornings rightfully touted the successful evacuation of Americans trapped in Israel through the efforts of Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL), a headline you would expect would be getting more attention.

MSNBC Airs NYC Comptroller Arrest Video, Proceeds to Blatantly Lie
On Tuesday night's airing of The Briefing With Jen Paki on MSNBC, Psaki’s first segment detailed the arrest of NYC Comptroller and mayoral candidate, Brad Lander.

MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle Says ‘Truth Matters,’ Lies Four Minutes Later
MSNBC’s 11th Hour host, Stephanie Ruhle, kicked off Monday night's show by saying, “So please remember, the truth matters, but only if you hear it, so let's get started covering the truth.” A great quote from the leftist propaganda machine that was MSNBC. The joke wrote itself in this instance, because four minutes later Ruhle and her guests spewed biased rhetoric on President Trump…

CBS’s Debora Patta Mourns for Iranian Generals Killed in Airstrikes

On Monday, MSNBC’s Morning Joe invited Democratic Senator Tammy Duckworth of Illinois to discuss her troubles with the U.S. Army’s 250th-anniversary parade.

CNN’s Brownstein: Trump Sees LA as ‘Hostile Territory to Be Subdued’
Wednesday morning, The Situation Room aired CNN political analyst and Bloomberg opinion writer, Ron Brownstein, in order to talk about the ongoing situation in Los Angeles, California.

PBS Finds Mostly 'Non-Violent,' 'Festival-like' Atmosphere in L.A.
Tuesday’s PBS News Hour led off with special correspondent Marcia Biggs’ nearly nine-minute segment from downtown Los Angeles, ground zero in the confrontation between Trump’s immigration enforcement and protests that often devolved into looting and rioting.

Maddow Wants Agents to Quit Playing ‘Dress-Up,’ Drop Protective Gear
On Monday night's MSNBC airing of The Rachel Maddow Show, Maddow talked about the over militarization of federal agents, called people to action in protests against these agencies, and erroneously criticized President Trump’s handling of the L.A. riots as a “portrait of weakness.” Maddow took particular issue with federal agents wearing protective equipment to protect themselves from…

NYT Avoids ‘Stochastic’ Smear When Killers Use Lefty Anti-Jew Rhetoric
Anti-Jewish terrorists inspired by the “Free Palestine” movement allegedly have, over the last few weeks, made three attacks on Jews in America. While the New York Times’ coverage has been sufficiently forthright in identifying the pro-Palestinian nature of the attackers, one key phrase the paper has previously used to describe supposed right-wing domestic terrorism went missing: The…

ABC The Only Legacy Newscast to (Barely) Report on Chinese Bioweapon

NBC’s Today Bids Farewell to Lester Holt, Omits Aversion to Fairness
Ahead of anchor Lester Holt’s final sign off from NBC Nightly News later that evening, NBC’s Today put on a special segment to bid their friend farewell as he left to host Dateline full time.

ABC Hypes 'Rigorous Vetting' Of Chinese Students That Repeatedly Fails
The Friday editions of ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today both employed Harvard Professor and former U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns to attack the Trump administration’s move to “aggressively” curtail student visas to Chinese nationals.
