Media Bias Debate

In 2022, some of cable TV’s most obnoxious left-wing executives, hosts, correspondents and commentators were shown the door. On this final day of 2022, a look back at those who we said goodbye to this year, and how the fairness of the media landscape is at least somewhat improved by their departure.

Morning Joe gleefully devotes its opening segment to the exposure of the multiple resumé lies of Republican Congressman-elect George Santos. The show highlights a New York Daily News editorial calling on Santos to resign. Joe Biden has told a multitude of lies about his background. But naturally, Morning Joe never suggests that he should resign, instead chalking the Santos…

As part of the carousel of cotton-candy interviews with NPR and Vanity Fair, Kamala Harris complained to Washington Post columnist Jonathan Capehart about her press clips! It has NOT been "rough," not in the leftist media.

On Morning Joe, Biden speechwriter and Morning Joe regular Jon Meacham says he may be mocked, but Biden has handled Ukraine crisis with "immense skill"

On Morning Joe, Mika Brzezinski asks, "can he speak to the issues? Does he have a grasp on the issues? Would he be able to perform the job as senator?" Mika was speaking of Republican Herschel Walker, candidate for Senate from Georgia. But the same questions could just as easily have applied to John Fetterman, the stroke-impaired Democrat from Pennsylvania. Except the liberal media never asked…

MRC President Brent Bozell announced new MRC Business investigative research exposing the extent of liberal billionaire George Soros' influence over the global media. He also slammed the liberal media for largely ignoring Twitter owner Elon Musk's document dump that revealed internal communications on Twitter's effort to squash the Hunter Biden laptop scandal.

Leftist billionaire George Soros used his charities to build ties with hundreds of media organizations around the world involved in news and activist media. The journalism and activist media groups Soros supports mold public opinion on practically every continent and in many languages. They also insulate him from inquiry because reporters see him as an ally, not a target for investigation.

Today, big media has an agenda. Fox and most talk radio push right; most other media spin left. For a long time, leftists pretended this wasn’t happening. In 36 years at CBS and ABC, none of my colleagues admitted leaning left. There were only “facts” versus “narrow-minded conservatives.” Then Bernie Goldberg’s book “Bias” came out. The book is dead-on accurate, and a huge bestseller, but my…

CNN This Moring co-host Don Lemon travelled over to CBS and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Tuesday to promote the show and insist that “I don’t think we were liberal” when speaking about the pre-Chris Licht era.

Writing Sunday for our friends at National Review, senior writer Charles C.W. Cooke provided another scalding evisceration of the liberal media that have become modern-day Stasi agents meting out punishment for undesirable opinions and “zealous obscurantists staffing would-be censorship agencies” and thus having moved beyond previous self-centered descriptors as “firefighters,” “mediators,”…

Inital reports to the contrary, new CNN CEO Chris Licht has made clear that he wants the network to retain its partisan liberal "edge."

Reacting to the just-issued Supreme Court decision clearing the way for the IRS to furnish Trump tax returns to the Democrat-controlled House, Joe Scarborough, on Morning Joe, goes on a long spiel hailing the dedication of conservative Justices on the Court for respecting the precepts of "Madisonian checks and balances."

Twenty years ago, Democrats lost a midterm election they had expected to win. But instead of blaming “candidate quality” or a party message that was out of synch with voters, liberal pundits whined that the real problem was that the media were too slanted towards conservatives for liberals to get a fair shake. That’s right, a pro-conservative press.

It has now been a week since Elon Musk took over Twitter, and the wailing and gnashing of teeth is still audible across the legacy media landscape. In one sense, that's rather shocking: Why, precisely, should members of the media be so apoplectic about a billionaire taking over a social media company from other millionaires, pledging to loosen restrictions on dissemination of speech? In…
