Campaigns & Elections

CBS’s After Midnight is a show that prides itself on being the late night program for the younger, TikTok-watching, meme loving audience. So, naturally, host Taylor Tomlinson went all in on Tuesday with praise for Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign’s decision to “embrace the memes.”

On Monday morning, NBC News personalities were reading from the same playbook in making lame comparisons between President Joe Biden and George Washington as NBC presidential historian Michael Beschloss appeared on MSNBC's Morning Joe, and former contributor Jonathan Alter appeared on Morning News NOW. 

Joining CNN Newsroom on Sunday evening to react to President Joe Biden’s announcement that he will be ending his re-election bid, chief national correspondent John King predicted that “you can be certain that racism and sexism” will be directed against Vice President Kamala Harris as she replaces Biden as the likely Democratic nominee.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert reacted to President Joe Biden’s decision to end his re-election bid on Monday’s edition of The Late Show by gushing over his supposedly “great” presidency, retiring “Joe Biden is old" jokes, and doing a happy dance because he has hope again.

Following President Joe Biden’s decision to end his re-election bid and endorse Vice President Kamala Harris, CBS’s Krstine Johnson welcomed journalist Ed Gordon of fellow Paramount property Black Entertainment Television. Gordon wasted no time playing the race card in defense of Harris while hyping her “brilliant” record on abortion.

So for all the constant backstage whispers on a Biden withdrawal - “Yes he will! No he won’t!- the unasked question is: if Biden drops out, who will the left-leaning media endorse?

As much as the Biden campaign team may try to ignore it, the polls aren’t looking good and even the liberal media know it. This was illustrated on Friday’s CBS mornings as Principal Deputy Campaign Manager, Quentin Fulks didn’t budge as co-host Tony Dokoupil brutally but calmly dished out the numbers.

It was a week of ridiculing Republicans for the men of late night comedy. From Monday to Thursday, the comedians attacked Republicans as racist, cult-like drones and told more jokes about VP-nominee JD Vance in one week than they have about current VP Kamala Harris all year.

On Thursday, CNN Newsroom’s Jim Acosta hosted former advisor to Vice President Mike Pence, Olivia Troye. Troye, a faux conservative, praised the Democratic Party while describing Trump as a “used car salesman.”

CBS’s Stephen Colbert wrapped up his week of live reactions to the Republican National Convention early Friday morning by decrying the whole thing as “deeply, psychotically weird” because the party is trying to dismiss Donald Trump’s legal controversies as no big deal. Colbert would also welcome Sen. Bernie Sanders to The Late Show to claim that Trump is a threat to democracy because…

As the final night of the Republican National Conference began, with a crowd overwhelmed with excitement, optimism, and successful polling, it seemed to become harder for the media to find any criticism. Yet as petty criticisms pervaded the networks, MSNBC turned to the Never -Trumper Sarah Longwell in order to find any legitimate scruples with the successful party.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed radio host Charlamagne Tha God to a live edition of The Late Show on night three of the Republican National Convention to irresponsibly suggest that if President Biden, or some other Democrat, wins in November, the Supreme Court will nullify it. He also suggested that Donald Trump’s rhetoric led to his being shot on Saturday, while also attacking the…
