NewsGuard to Media That Covered Up Biden Health Scandal: You're Good!

Couric Claims People Allege Media Bias Because They Hate Facts
Former anchor of NBC's Today and CBS Evening News Katie Couric alleged on her Thursday Next Question podcast that people, presumably conservatives, who complain about media bias are just lamenting the existence of facts. However, Couric’s example was not anything factual but a lamentation that she could not openly support things like abortion during her previous…
MSNBC: Defunding Public Broadcasting Is An Assault on Free Speech
The cast of MSNBC’s Morning Joe welcomed The Age of Grievance author Frank Bruni to their Thursday show to discuss his book that argues that the far-left and the far-right share several common traits, including their desire to portray themselves as the main victims in society. Another common trait Bruni has assigned to both sides is an opposition to free speech, although one…

Cub NY Times Reporter Mourns 'Misinformation' Without Major Papers
Eli Tan, a San Francisco-based tech reporter for the New York Times, devoted 2,500 words in the paper’s Sunday edition decrying the spread of right-wing conspiracy theories, now that no one subscribes to the Times or local newspapers anymore: “How Misinformation and Partisan ‘New Media’ Changed a California Town.” The story was heavily based on a "militia" incidence that…
Velshi Claims Public Broadcasting Leads To Healthier Democracy

Brad Todd 'Fact Checks' the Liberal Ranters Over Trump's NBC Interview
Ever since Audie Cornish took over as host of CNN This Morning, we've been on a kvetch campaign about her failure to include Trump supporters on her reliably left-leaning panels. So it was surprising to see a welcome halt to this with the return of Republican strategist Brad Todd.
CBS's Brennan Lines Up NPR and PBS CEOs to Dismiss Incessant Bias
One really easy way to know that TV journalists are Democrats is how they rush to defense of PBS and NPR and use all the same arguments that Democrats have made in congressional hearings and social media. They willfully ignore the incessant bias of "public" broadcasting and deflect back to kiddie shows like Sesame Street, as if that's anything like comparing Trump to Hitler. On Sunday…
CNN, MSNBC Freak Out, Claim PBS 'Puts The Us In The U.S.'
The Friday primetime lineups of CNN and MSNBC did not handle the news that President Trump signed an executive order forbidding taxpayer money for PBS and NPR well, as they portrayed the news as an assault on everything from democracy, science, the military, farmers, and even the country itself.
PBS Decries 'Fundamental Attack On Our Constitution' As Trump Defunds
Self-reflection was absent as the cast of characters that made up Friday’s edition of PBS News Hour attacked President Donald Trump’s executive order that cut off their taxpayer money. From putting their heads in the sand on their liberal bias, to trying to make themselves free speech martyrs, Friday’s show by itself showed by Trump’s move was the correct one.
Former NPR CEO: Ceasing Taxpayer Support Is 'Attacking a Free Press'
Former scandal-plagued NPR CEO Vivian Schiller joined CNN News Central guest host Erica Hill on Friday to freak out over President Donald Trump’s Thursday executive order that ceased taxpayer money from going to NPR and PBS.

NPR CEO Claims They Are 'Foundational Infrastructure For Our Country'
NPR CEO Katherine Maher traveled over to Comedy Central and The Daily Show on Tuesday to ring the alarm bells over what could happen should NPR lose its federal money. Maher painted a nightmarish scenario where people go without news, Sesame Street gets shut down, and political polarization increases because, according to her, public media is the “foundational infrastructure…
LOL: CNN Claims Funding PBS, NPR is an 'Investment in the Free Press'
CNN might be funnier than the late night comedy shows, albeit unintentionally. During CNN Newsroom’s Saturday pregame show ahead of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, media analyst Sara Fischer claimed that freedom of the press has become increasingly politicized. Her first example was to claim that funding PBS and NPR is an “investment in the free press,” but that has now become…
