New Tit-For-Tat in Dokoupil Hubbub: Anti-Israel CBS News Strikes Back
Wednesday night brought more turns in totally unnecessary fallout from the September 30 CBS Mornings interview between co-host Tony Dokoupil and race hustler Ta-Nehisi Coates on the latter’s new book painting Israel as an apartheid state suppressing neglected Palestinians.This time, reporting from The Free Press, The New York Times, Puck, and Mehdi Hasan’s Zeteo laid waste to…

Trying to Make Sense of Kamala Harris’s ‘60 Minutes’ Performance
It took two and one-half months for Kamala Harris to agree to an interview with a national journalist. She was interviewed on "60 Minutes" by Bill Whitaker, but her answers are not likely to help her with the few voters who say they are still “undecided.” Asked by Whitaker to explain her economic plan and how it would be paid for, Harris’ response bordered on the meaningless: “My plan is about…

PBS Marks October 7 Massacre of Jews by Fretting Over Hamas, Hezbollah
How did PBS, which has displayed anti-Israel bias while whitewashing the radical nature of Hamas and its American supporters, handle the tragic anniversary Monday of Hamas’s invasion of Israel, which resulted in the murder of 1200 civilians, including women and babies, and the taking of over 200 hostages? Poorly -- focusing on Gaza and Hamas, just as they have every other day of the year, and…

Žižek Decries Creation of Israeli State for Soros Outlet on Oct. 7

NBC Nightly News Both-Sides October 7th Protests
On the one hand, NBC Nightly News was the only evening network newscast to acknowledge that there were dueling protests on occasion of the first anniversary of Hamas’ barbaric Black Sabbath attack against Israel. On the other, the network both-sidesed the protests.

VP Harris Refuses to Say Whether Breaking Border Open Was a ‘Mistake’
The 60 Minutes interview was supposed to be a cornerstone of Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’s much-ballyhooed “Media Blitz”, featuring such tough interviews as The View, Howard Stern, Stephen Colbert, and the Call Her Daddy podcast. Instead, it may have turned out to be a millstone.

NewsBusters Podcast: October 7 Terrorists Get Year-Round Media Support
The anniversary of the Hamas slaughter of Israelis on October 7 may draw somber media coverage, but over the last year of the Israel-Gaza war, journalists have sided against Israel and for the terrorists of Hamas and Hezbollah. It starts by citing their "health ministry" casualty counts and avoiding any mention of them as "terrorists."

CBS Anchor Gets Dressed Down By Editorial Bosses for Confronting Lib
NewsBusters readers should recalled our recent piece from last week where we highlighted how CBS Morning co-anchor Tony Dokoupil rightly confronted far-left liberal extremist Ta-Nehisi Coates for his demonstrably and admittedly one-sided screed against the Jewish State of Israel. But in an editorial phone call on the anniversary of the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, audio…

CBS Marks Oct 7 Lamenting Bombing Hamas, Lies About No Hostage Rescues
Monday marked the one-year anniversary of barbarians from Gaza murdering and raping their way through southeast Israel, killing the men, women, children, the elderly, and young people at a concert. How did CBS Mornings choose to remember that day? By lamenting that Israel responded with the overwhelming force needed to neutralize the threat to innocent people, and lying by omission to…

Kamala Surrogate: Harris Is 'Committed To The Values' of Muslim Voters
On CNN's State of the Union, Kamala Harris surrogate Mark Kelly, a Dem senator from Arizona, says that Harris is "committed to the values" of Michigan Muslims. This despite the fact that a large swath of American Muslims support Hamas and call for the end of the State of Israel.

PBS Platforms Ugly ‘Jim Crow’ Smear of Israel from Ta-Nehisi Coates
Given her post-October 6 reporting, it’s no surprise that PBS/CNN host Christian Amanpour manages little sympathy for Israel’s two-front fight against Islamic terrorists of Hamas and Hezbollah, but her introduction to Friday’s Amanpour & Co. (PBS) interview of left-wing darling Ta-Nehisi Coates discussing his ignorant anti-Israel book was still a bit much: "….our next guest says…

FNC’s Shannon Bream Fact-Checks Walz Lies on Abortion, Born-Alive Law
With just about a month to go before the 2024 presidential election, a member of the Democrat ticket finally sat down with Fox News. Vice presidential nominee and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz joined Shannon Bream on Fox News Sunday, for an interview that perhaps explains the reluctance for these types of interviews at the top of the ticket.

FLASHBACK: After Hamas Massacred Israelis, the Media Attacked Israel
One year ago (October 7, 2023), Hamas terrorists invaded southern Israeli communities and murdered nearly 1,200 individuals, including babies. Yet the media quickly shifted to deploring Israel’s military campaign to remove Hamas’s capability to ever commit such an atrocity in the future.

Biden FINALLY Visits WH Briefing, Gets Lobbed Softballs by Press Corps
On Friday, President Biden made his first appearance in the White House Briefing Room with only three and a half months left in office after years of calls from reporters across the political spectrum. Sure, he only took questions for just over eight minutes, but the press corps made sure to throw this unique opportunity away with a combination of open-ended foreign policy queries and…
