NBC's Law & Order took on the Israeli-Gaza conflict last night, showing sympathy for a pro-Hamas protester who is in danger of being deported.

Breaking news from anti-DEI activist and Manhattan Institute fellow Christopher Rufo -- that Kamala Harris plagiarized five sections in her 2009 book Smart on Crime -- was greeted with contempt from the New York Times, which even hurled accusations of racism at Rufo for his past successes of exposing plagiarists in academia, including helping force the resignation of Harvard…

In a story we didn’t get to last week, CBS Mornings brought on Biden-Harris Education Secretary Miguel Cardona during the August 29 show and co-host Tony Dokoupil admirably grilled him on what he probably thought was going to be an easy interview about a supposed bus tour to promote public education. Instead, it turned into a back-and-forth on the cost of the Biden White House’s…

2023 Dao Prize finalist and Washington Free Beacon writer Aaron Sibarium uncorked a doozy Monday morning that revealed Robin DiAngelo, the author of the race-hustling book White Fragility and a walking embodiment of how rich, white, liberal women are wreaking havoc on the country’s political and societal systems, is the subject of a new complaint filed at the University of Washington…

Four months after pro-Hamas terrorists took over the Columbia University campus and made it a no-go zone for Jewish students, university president Minouche Shafik finally resigned in disgrace. But while the Thursday newscasts of ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS Mornings found time to report on the resignation, NBC’s Today couldn’t spare even a few seconds to…

In normal years, which were not that long ago, students would look forward to returning to or entering college as freshmen. After violent anti-Israel and antisemitic demonstrations on some college campuses, many fear this semester might see a repeat of the prior ugliness. This is how bad it has gotten. Police in Montgomery County, Maryland, are investigating after antisemitic and pro-…

How did taxpayer-funded media cover the anti-Jewish, pro-Hamas protests that dominated college campuses this spring? A new Media Research Center study analyzed the words used by Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) reporters, guests, and talking heads over 36 days of protest coverage and found PBS’s flagship news program NewsHour/News Weekend to be overwhelmingly on the side of the…

With President Biden on the road Monday and Tuesday then a joint press conference Thursday with the Kenyan president, reporters jammed a lot of questions into Wednesday’s press briefing to the ever-inept Karine Jean-Pierre. Thankfully, NBC’s Peter Alexander woke up ready to do his job with probing questions to the press secretary, even if they’re on the same side of the aisle. The topic was…

On Thursday, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today seethed with disgust at Christians and anyone who values being a parent over their careers (or any other accomplishment or trait) in light of the Benedictine College commencement address by Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker, which they deemed “controversial” and worthy of “backlash” and “growing outrage” for…

The Education Department’s ongoing meltdown due to its failed implementation of its new website for its Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) should, on the merits, be an ongoing major national story. But the Regime Media have chosen only to cover the story in a very sparing manner, shielding those responsible for the FAFSA meltdown from any scrutiny or accountability.

A laudatory look at the pro-Hamas, Qatar-funded network Al Jazeera, “Why Al Jazeera is the Go To News Source for Student Protesters,” by Santul Nerkar, a young journalist at the paper, made the front page of Monday’s New York Times Business section. The print headline: “Al Jazeera Finds Fans On Campus." When conservatives say they don’t trust the mainstream press to cover Republicans fairly,…

“Saturday Night Live” had a second chance to address the raging antisemitism on today’s college campuses.

Tuesday’s PBS NewsHour actually brought on a critic of the pro-Hamas protesters currently infesting college campus quads across the country, which so far have gotten a nearly free ride from scrutiny (there’s certainly been little scrutiny of the pro-Biden groups funding them). New York Times columnist David French is no hard-core conservative, but his opinion that the “…

In case you missed it, Monday’s White House press briefing was dominated by questions about Hamas supposedly agreeing to a ceasefire deal that, as we would quickly find out, was one they more or less concocted on their own (as opposed to one backed by Egypt, Israel, Qatar, and the U.S.), so Fox’s Jacqui Heinrich made a point to wonder whether the Biden regime still wants Israel to win the war…
