Congress

In a tremendous illustration of how leftists believe the legacy, liberal media are supposed to work for them, Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) flashed disgust on Thursday’s CBS Mornings as co-host Tony Dokoupil for stating the truth Democrats have and continue to support taxpayer-funded health care (such as emergency room visits) for “non-citizens” as a condition for ending the…

Early Wednesday evening on The Lead, CNN fact-checker and Canadian Daniel Dale teamed up with host Jake Tapper to engage in a sleight of hand to paint Republicans as liars in the government shutdown battle for arguing Democrats want to provide health care for illegal immigrants. In essence, Dale told viewers both here and later on AC360 that those receiving free care are aren…

For day one of the government shutdown, ABC’s Good Morning America showed its rancorous liberal bias with back-to-back interviews Wednesday of House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY). Co-host George Stephanopoulos fully embraced his background as a one-time Clinton official by berating and screeching at Johnson while providing Jeffries a…

Despite the only group standing in the way of averting a government shutdown at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Wednesday are Senate Democrats, ABC, CBS, and NBC have all taken their side in demanding a permanent extension of ObamaCare subsides that were meant to be temporary during the pandemic (along with a whole host of other goodies, including refunding PBS and NPR). Shutdowns have long been something…

Despite tough questions from fill-in co-hosts Kelly O’Grady and Ed O’Keefe, Monday’s CBS Mornings Plus chose to dedicate the “By the Way” segment — a block meant to do a deeper dive on one of the major headlines but often becomes a free block for liberal narratives — to a supposedly viral guest column from a rural Virginia factory worker lamenting the rise in cost of living and the…

As part of a New York City media blitz on Friday, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) entered enemy territory on ABC’s Good Morning America and, unfortunately, weekend co-host Whit Johnson went all-negative in a six-minute-plus interview on turmoil inside the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), negative spin on the One Big Beautiful Bill, harping on the Epstein File hubbub, and demanding…

Elon Musk's platform, X, is still perceived to favor liberal voices over conservative ones. An MRC analysis indicates that Democrats, especially radical ones like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Maxine Waters, have higher visibility scores, enhancing the reach of their posts. Conversely, Republicans often receive lower scores, affecting the visibility of their content. This bias could influence…

While their evening counterparts were nowhere to be seen on Monday night, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today followed through early Tuesday in celebrating Texas Democrats returning to the Lone Star State, painting them as conquering heroes for (temporarily) halting the GOP-proposed congressional maps and trumpeting their latest demand for attention.

Last week, I examined the reaction to and the consequences of a possible indictment of former President Barack Obama over “Obamagate,” the false claim that “the intelligence community” concluded a) Russians interfered in the 2016 election (which is not in dispute), b) they did so to help elect candidate Donald Trump, and c) Trump “colluded” with the Russians to get elected.

A redistricting arms race? Texas Republicans' plan to redraw the congressional map and eliminate five Democratic-held U.S. House seats, which would help the GOP retain control of the House in next year's midterm elections, sent Democrats in the Texas legislature fleeing to Illinois and New York to avoid a sufficient “quorum” in the chamber to vote on the measure. The spat led off Monday…

As the broadcast networks are prone to do (and did earlier this year), ABC and NBC used their flagship Tuesday morning news shows to fawn over a stacked room of far-left hooligans wreaking havoc at a town hall held by Congressman Mike Flood (R-NE). They predictably painted it as a harbinger of things to come with the Big, Beautiful Bill now law.

On Monday night and Tuesday morning, the “Big Three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC continued to trumpet Texas Democrats fleeing to Illinois, New York, and other blue bastions across the country because Republicans hurt their feelings by wanting to redraw the state’s congressional maps. But in addition to the typical love notes, CBS and NBC went as far as accepting and peddling their spin that…

On Monday, ABC, CBS, and NBC used their flagship morning news shows to gush over the “Texas-sized fight” and “standoff” state Democrats pitched by cowardly flocking to Illinois in opposition to a Republican-led redrawing of the Lone Star State’s 38 House seats. Framing it as standing up for “democracy,” CBS and NBC ignored the left’s penchant for gerrymandering and all three saw no problem…

Deadline.com is reporting the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down its operations after the loss of federal funding. "The CPB informed employees on Friday that the majority of staff positions will end on Sept. 30, with a small transition team in place through January, 2026." If this happens, this is not a shutdown of PBS or NPR stations, but a shutdown of the corporation that…
