In a two-part interview airing Tuesday and Wednesday, the PBS News Hour interviewed controversial COVID responder Dr. Anthony Fauci, former Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, who has a new autobiography out. But Fauci was fawned over by tax-funded PBS, couching mild criticism in general terms and steering away from truly important issues about COVID…

After teasing it was a while ago, ABC’s The View finally had Dr. Anthony Fauci on the show to help him hawk his new book. The much-reviled public health official received copious amounts of praise from the liberal ladies and no questions about how the policies he pushed harmed a generation of children and infringed on individual liberties. Instead, he got a platform to lash out at…

Tuesday’s CBS Mornings marked the latest stop on Dr. Tony Fauci’s book tour for his memoir and, considering co-host/Democratic donor Gayle King and co-host/former NFL player Nate Burleson were at the table, it largely consisted of one gross softball after another sucking up to this former leftist icon about how tough it must be to be him, how some don’t understand science, and how…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed former NIH Director Anthony Fauci to Monday’s edition of The Late Show to promote his new book, to look back at the COVID-19 pandemic, and lament “the politicization of science” and the “hostility” he has received from Republicans. Naturally, there was no self-reflection on Fauci’s part, nor was Colbert willing to go there.

NewsGuard’s co-CEO advocated financial censorship and sneered at the American principle of free speech in a recent interview.

ABC, CBS, and NBC were not only exhausting airtime fawning over and spinning for Hunter Biden as his first criminal trial got underway, but also rallying around Dr. Tony Fauci on Monday night and Tuesday morning over the “contentious”, “heated” and “hostile” House hearing he endured on the COVID-19 pandemic response that left him “defiant” yet “emotional” over “the threats” posed by critics.…

ABC News is not sending us their best. That much was obvious during Tuesday’s edition of The View when the Cackling Coven went to bat for Dr. Anthony Fauci following a House hearing the previous day. Amid their rambling, one of them shared their new sneaking suspicion that the origin of the COVID-19 virus lay outside the United States. Not only that, another heard rumors that it came…

Adam Carolla is doing a victory lap, and it’s hard to blame him.

Without a doubt, many readers here at NewsBusters were mega-dittos fans of the late, great Rush Limbaugh. In today’s media world perhaps you listen to conservative talk radio hosts Sean Hannity or Rush’s successors Clay Travis and Buck Sexton, or Glenn Beck or Jesse Kelly. Or, indeed someone else, perhaps a local conservative host in your area.

It is a time-honored tradition that during campaign season, politicians will defend themselves by claiming that “since I took office” such-and-such has happened or attack their opponents by arguing that “since so-and-so took office” this has happened, but when Florida Sen. Marco Rubio tried that tactic against President Biden and his inflation record, PolitiFact slapped him with a “half-true”…

Syndicated radio host Mark Levin tore into prominent CNN Biden flack anchor Dana Bash for trying to gaslight viewers on the dangers of the White House censorship regime.

Liberal journalist and podcaster Kara Swisher took her book tour to HBO and Real Time with Bill Maher on Friday to offer up several contradictory claims. Swisher claimed to be for debate while defending collusion between the government and social media companies and labeled Rupert Murdoch “Uncle Satan” while lamenting the lack of serious debate.

It was always asinine for President Joe Biden’s administration to claim that they “nearly” added 15 million jobs since the pandemic, and it apparently stank so much that even leftist fact-checker Snopes didn’t let it pass the smell test.

Professional fact-checkers love to add context to their articles to argue why the claim made by whoever they are checking is more complicated than the claimant is suggesting. This can also be evidence of double standards.
