ABC News This Week host Martha Raddatz had a sit-down with the new Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. C.Q. Brown. What was a biographical get-to-know-you interview mixed with talk about current events in the Middle East was marred by an unnecessary dive into politics.

North and South Yemen no longer exist. During the Cold War, North Yemen had ties to the West, and South Yemen had Marxist leadership, branding itself as totalitarian regimes often do, the “People’s Democratic Republic of Yemen.” With the collapse of the Soviet Union and communist subsidy, North Yemen finally sought a merger with South Yemen in what is now known simply as Yemen.

CNN/PBS anchor Christiane Amanpour may claim to be truthful and not neutral, but when Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib joined her on her Wednesday show to blame Israel for the twin bombings in Iran that killed 84 people at the tomb of Qasem Soleimani, Amanpour simply noted that was “your opinion,” but since the program aired, ISIS has taken credit for the attacks, which was always…

Fourteen years ago tomorrow (December 10), liberals were ecstatic as President Barack Obama accepted the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo. Obama had been president for a mere 11 days before the window for nominations closed on January 31, but his media fan club nonetheless celebrated the “towering honor” bestowed upon their hero.

Towards the back-end of Tuesday’s White House press briefing, the Fox Business Network’s Edward Lawrence got under the skin of the ever-inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre by asking whether President Biden’s energy policies are helping to expand Iran’s oil coffers and thus leaving them with more money to fund terror groups like Hamas.

In 1990, after Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait, President George H.W. Bush was considering the American response. He was torn: On the one hand, he saw the necessity of pushing Saddam out of the oil-rich state, maintaining the impression of American strength in the region. On the other hand, he wanted to avoid conflict altogether. Three weeks after the invasion, Bush had still not made a decision…

It was November 4, 1979. The President of the United States was Democrat Jimmy Carter. Carter was seen by many on the GOP side as a weak president, which was part of the reason Republican Ronald Reagan was making another try for the GOP nomination to face off with Carter in the soon-to-arrive 1980 presidential election.

Fox News Channel's Special Report on Thursday covered a shocking story that Robert Malley the architect behind the Obama administration's Iran nuclear deal was himself under investigation for alleged ties to the Iranian regime. During their Thursday evening newscasts, all three of the nightly news broadcasts avoided covering this revelation. 

On Sept. 22, 2005, Israel completed its unilateral withdrawal from the Gaza Strip. It did not take someone with the power of an Old Testament prophet to predict what would come next. Hamas almost immediately filled the vacuum and began planning a series of terrorist attacks on civilian targets within Israel. The latest attack, on Oct. 6, the 50th anniversary of the start of the 1973 Yom Kippur…

If the fact-checking industry is going to insist that it should be able to throttle social media posts, at the very least, it should fact-check the claims the post is actually making and not straw men because Instagram posts have been deemed misinformation after PolitiFact and the USA Today accused the posters of attributing a 2020 “Death to America” chant in the Iranian parliament to…

Monday was the first weekday since the horrific terrorist attacks against Israel by Iran-funded Hamas terrorists. Therefore this was the first opportunity for the weeknight anchors of the big three evening news broadcasts to properly cover the attacks and note that the Biden administration had given Iran $6 billion in exchange for hostages only weeks prior to the attacks. 

X owner Elon Musk called out the Supreme Leader of Iran for his disgusting celebration of the terrorist group Hamas and its barbaric attack on Israel. 

The repellent coordinated terrorist attacks Saturday by Hamas on the state of Israel on Saturday, targeting both soldiers and citizens for rape and murder and kidnapping. But in its ongoing live coverage the New York Times consistently refused to call the Hamas terrorists, using the less dramatic word “militants,” which is standard practice for the paper. It’s the same word…

On CNN's State of the Union, host Dana Bash conducts a toadying interview of Secretary of State Tony Blinken regarding the Hamas attack on Israel. She lets NSA Jake Sullivan off the hook for recently bragging that the Middle East is quieter than it's been in decades, and that he spends less time on it than any of his predecessors in 20 years. And Bash virtually apologizes to Blinken for asking…
