Nets Ignore Michigan State Shooter Had Gun Charge Dropped by Soros DA
Late Monday night, a deranged gunman opened fire on students at Michigan State University, killing three and leaving five others in critical condition. On Tuesday evening the three evening news broadcasts were quick to jump to their usual playbook of overblowing how frequent mass shootings in the United States are and turning to guests or victims to plea for gun control. All three networks…
Networks Abandoned Ohio Train Disaster Despite Continued Fallout

Nets Ignore Pro-Life Activists Barred from Government Buildings in DC
On Monday Fox News Channel’s Special Report revealed that a group of pro-life advocates had their constitutional rights violated by being unjustly barred from entering two separate public museums in Washington D.C. because they were wearing clothing in support of the pro-life cause.

ABC, NBC Stay Quiet on Hunter Biden Laptop Hearing, CBS Breaks Ice
After the broadcast networks ignored the House Oversight Committee hearing into Twitter’s censorship of the New York Post’s reporting of Hunter Biden’s laptop on their Wednesday night newscasts, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today followed suit on Thursday. In contrast, CBS Mornings gave viewers two minutes and 35 seconds on the hearing that, while it…
Nets Ignore Hearing on Twitter's Hunter Biden Laptop Story Censorship
On Wednesday the House Oversight Committee grilled former Twitter executives over their censorship and suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story, with two of the executives even admitting it was a mistake to have suppressed the story and suspended the New York Post for publishing and posting it on their platform. Predictably the three networks ignored the story.
Networks Yawn as Biden Releases ANOTHER Terrorist from Gitmo
On Thursday, the Biden administration released a ‘high-value’ Al Qaeda terrorist and former courier from Guantánamo Bay after being held for two decades for his role in numerous terrorist plots including a bombing in Indonesia.

Petulant NPR Reporter Predicts Media Will Continue Ignoring Hunter
On Sunday's edition of Fox News Channel's MediaBuzz, frequent guest and NPR national political correspondent Mara Liasson said the quiet part out loud when she admitted that the lack of media coverage of Joe Biden's crackhead son Hunter is not expected to change and as a result, the political calculus on whether the growing list of crimes Hunter is accused of is enough to hurt…
CBS Downplays Palestinian Terrorist Attack on Jerusalem Synagogue
As part of their Monday newscast, CBS Mornings downplayed a shooting attack carried out by a Palestinian terrorist against a synagogue in east Jerusalem as people were filing out after services. Co-anchor/Democratic donor Gayle King and correspondent Imtiaz Tyab obfuscated that fact. As they described the attack in vague terms, the latter suggested Israel was on a killing spree…
Top CBS Morning, Evening Shows Ignore Anti-Cop Riot in Atlanta
Late Saturday night, Atlanta, Georgia was beset by the latest riot by Antifa and far-left thugs as they set a police car on fire, shot explosives at a police building, and caused property destruction.

Looking Back at Last 10 Marches for Life & the Media's Collective Yawn
Friday marked the 2023 March for Life on the National Mall on Washington D.C. with hundreds of thousands of pro-lifers to coincide with Sunday’s 50th anniversary of Roe v.

And, with zero preview coverage Friday morning on the broadcast network news shows, it appears as though this will mark the eighth March for Life in the past 10 years with…
CNN Spews Disinformation About VA School District’s Maniacal ‘Equity’
In yet another scandal from a Northern Virginia school district dominated by liberals, Fairfax public schools were recently accused of withholding notice of merit scholarship commendations as part of what Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin calls their “maniacal focus on equal outcomes for all students at all costs.” The response from CNN during Tuesday’s Inside Politics was to suggest…
