Bias by Omission

The acquittal of Daniel Penny disturbed the ivory tower virtue of the PBS News Hour on Monday evening. Penny, who intervened on a New York City subway in the summer of 2023 when violent homeless addict Jordan Neely threatened to kill other passengers, had been put on trial for his civic heroism by an otherwise soft-on-crime Manhattan prosecutor, Alvin Bragg.

Wednesday’s PBS News Hour featured a propagandistic, nine-and-a-half minute segment on the important case argued before the Supreme Court involving a Tennessee law banning transgender surgery for minors: “Supreme Court hears arguments in most significant trans rights case to reach bench.” The taxpayer-funded network actually opened its broadcast with emotional blackmail, in the guise…

Kat Tenbarge, tech and culture reporter for NBC News, filed an online story Saturday, “Journalists flock to Bluesky as X becomes increasingly 'toxic' -- Journalists are finding more readers and less hate on Bluesky than on the platform they used to know as Twitter.” As long as you follow the liberal line, that is.

Sunday’s PBS News Weekend program, guest hosted by White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez, resurfaced the feminist, sexual-abuse awareness #MeToo slogan to smear Donald Trump’s emerging picks to serve in his presidential Cabinet: "What signal does it send that these people may be filling some of the highest positions in government and leading the military or determining health…

The Regime Media have a long, sordid history of looking the other way at stories that fail to advance their narratives or otherwise make Democrats in power look bad. But some stories are so bad that they break through anyway. Case in point: the toddler recently found at the southern border along with a bunch of other unaccompanied minors. 

Incoming Border Czar Tom Homan made a visit to the Texas part of the U.S. southern border. Under normal circumstances, this would warrant across-the-board coverage from the “mainstream media”, given how much of a departure Homan's visit is from border enforcement. But the CBS Evening News found zero time for the new Border Czar.

Amazing. Subtle too. Over there at Newsmax’s nightly show The Right Squad, hosted by Chris Plante (and full disclosure, I am a Newsmax TV contributor) Chris opened his show the other night with a very interesting media observation.

ABC, CBS, and NBC have shown a disturbing aversion to covering the murder trial of Georgia student Laken Riley by an illegal immigrant. In five days, they spent nearly four times less coverage on the flagship newscasts about Riley versus the manufactured and partisan obsession over the October 27 remark by a pro-Trump comedian that Puerto Rico was a “floating island of garbage.” From Friday,…

In what could best be described as a naked piece of Regime propaganda, NBC News promoted the left’s latest temper tantrum-induced exodus from X (formerly Twitter). And in so doing, they left out the part about the left’s temper tantrum. 

With NewsBusters Executive editor Tim Graham away on the star-studded MRC Cruise this week, Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro and I began our week hosting the show by assessing on Monday where the liberal media stand nearly a week after their landslide election loss. We also dove into Fondacaro’s latest reporting on CNN’s legal woes which, believe it or not, has taken another wild turn.

Late Friday, our friends at the Daily Wire uncovered a massive Biden-Harris administration scandal that blew away the liberal media’s claims that FEMA were taking care of communities affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Thanks to reporter Leif Le Mahieu, we learned a FEMA supervisor instructed employees to avoid homes in Florida with Trump signs. Of course, this wasn’t of any interest to…

On Thursday, scenes of Europe’s ugly past seemed to have returned with a full-scale pogrom by pro-Palestinian thugs chasing and beating fans of an Israeli soccer team through the streets of Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Unfortunately, ABC’s Good Morning America saw no reason to cover these horrifying acts of violence that resulted in rescue planes being dispatched by Israeli Prime Minister…

The Associated Press gave the Biden administration a fright on Halloween night, publishing a story exposing how the White House deliberately altered the official transcript of President Biden’s VotoLatino appearance where he called Trump voters “garbage.” Despite the fact that the alteration were indeed a scandal, ABC’s Good Morning America was the only broadcast morning newscast to…

The Regime sycophants at MSNBC wasted no time going into North Korean anchor mode after the conclusion of Vice President Kamala Harris’s “closing argument” speech at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C., in an effort to trigger friendly coverage with January 6th contrasts.
