Suck-Up: NYT Reporter, Psaki Mock GOP ‘Going Crazy’ Over Kamala
With Tuesday serving as the final White House press briefing for at least week due to President Biden’s trip to Europe, liberal reporters had one more chance to perform for the cameras and/or suck up to Press Secretary Jen Psaki. Unfortunately, PBS’s Yamiche Alcindor, The New York Times’s Katie Rogers, and The Grio’s April Ryan seemed to be more Stelter than, say, Fox’s Peter Doocy.…
ABC, CBS Ignore Harris’s Border Blunder, Tout Her Snapping at Critics
As NewsBusters documented on Tuesday, Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a colossal blunder when pressed by NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt on why she hadn’t visited the U.S.-Mexico border despite being the point person on the crisis. Her bewildering comment about how she had not been to Europe either was completely ignored by ABC’s World News Tonight, while the …
Outlandish MSNBC Claim: There's No Crisis at the Southern Border
It is no surprise that MSNBC has continued its relentless campaign of praising the Biden administration for anything and everything, even if it’s cringeworthy and unclear like Vice President Kamala Harris’s focus on immigration. On Monday’s The ReidOut, host Joy Reid and former Harris aide, Sergio Gonzales discussed Harris’s trip to Guatemala. Ignoring the hiccups and lack of…
Univision: Did You Know That 'Don't Come-ala' Has A Mexican Cousin?
In case you're wondering how Vice President Kamala Harris' swing through Guatemala and Mexico is going, Univision is now helpfully (and sycophantically) reminding viewers that Harris has a Mexican cousin.
NBC’s Holt Calls Out VP’s Lies: ‘We’ve Been to Border' (She Hasn't)
Finally, after burying the growing debacle at the border, NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt on Tuesday shocked by calling out Kamala Harris’s bizarre lies and attempts to pretend that “we’ve” visited the border. In an interview that ran on Tuesday’s Today, Holt repeatedly grilled the Vice President. He began by lecturing the Democrat, “What [Americans] do see at their own…
Guatemala Kamala: Holt Boasts Harris Is '1,500 Miles from the Border'
Back in March, President Biden appointed Vice President Kamala Harris to be the point person to handle the illegal immigration crisis on the U.S.-Mexico border. It’s now June and Harris is in Guatemala and has refused to visit the crisis zone and witness it firsthand. But she had little to worry about as NBC was playing defense on her behalf. And during the Monday newscast of NBC Nightly…
NBC Admits the Border Is Not Closed, Despite Assertions By Biden Flack
For months now, NewsBusters has documented how NBC Nightly News had danced around the margins and largely refused to call the situation at the border a “crisis.” But on Wednesday, weekday anchor Lester “fairness is overrated” Holt had handed over the reins to Sunday anchor Kate Snow, the truth finally broke through. Not only did Snow admit that there was a crisis, but correspondent…
NBC Ignores Tibbetts's Illegal Immigrant Murderer's Guilty Verdict
History repeated itself tonight, as NBC once again blocked out major developments in the 2018 case of murdered Iowa student, Mollie Tibbetts. The other two networks also tried to hide her murderer's illegal immigration status.
ABC Skips Border Crisis With DHS Secretary, Talks Travel Instead
In a major case of media malpractice, on Friday, ABC’s Good Morning America had an exclusive interview with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and failed to ask a single question about the ongoing illegal immigration crisis at the U.S. southern border. Instead, co-host Michael Strahan chatted with the Biden administration cabinet member about Memorial Day weekend travel…
As Nets Cover-Up Border Crisis, Fox Shows How They’re Getting in
Fox News Channel continued to be the primary TV news outlet that was keeping its viewers informed on the ongoing border security crisis as the liberal broadcast networks had packed up and gone home to New York and Washington, D.C. And during Thursday’s Special Report, correspondent Bill Melugin was on the ground in Rio Grande Valley, Texas showing off the tools illegal immigrants used…
Nets Skip Sex Offenders at the Border, Polls Show Narrative Sundered
When it came to immigration, President Biden’s left flank was completely covered by the broadcast networks that brushed the worst-than-ever border crisis under the rug. But as new Fox News polling showed on Wednesday, Biden’s weak handling of the crisis was making an edge rush right and breaking through the narrative. All of this came as ABC, CBS, and NBC skipped new reporting on how Border…
MSNBC's Hypocrite: See When Heilemann Is Okay with Holocaust Metaphors
Appearing as a guest on Monday's Deadline: White House, MSNBC national affairs analyst John Heilemann threw stones in the MSNBC glass house as he hypocritically slammed the GOP over Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene making an over the top comparison between wearing masks during the pandemic and the Holocaust, and House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy so far not speaking…
Nets Duck Border Patrol Capturing Wanted Sex Offender/MS-13 Member
As two NewsBusters studies had found earlier this month, the evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC had been showing less and less of President Biden’s border crisis until they weren’t covering it at all. And after nearly a week, the networks had refused to share with their viewers how an MS-13 gang member, wanted for sexually assaulting a minor in Houston was arrested as he tried to cross the…
