Medicaid

PBS is not only lamenting that its federal funding could be cut; it is also now lamenting that Planned Parenthood’s funding has been eliminated. On Tuesday’s Amanpour and Company, guest host Bianna Golodryga and New York Times reporter Caroline Kitchener lamented not only the GOP’s Planned Parenthood decision but also the three-year anniversary of Roe v. Wade’s…

Comedy Central’s The Daily Show returned from two weeks of vacation on Monday with Jon Stewart welcoming former 60 Minutes correspondent Steve Kroft to the program to claim that his former colleagues fear “losing the First Amendment” after mutual parent company Paramount settled with President Trump in a lawsuit over their 2024 campaign interview with Kamala Harris. Elsewhere…

Former President Barack Obama’s National Economic Council director has slipped from being the voice of reason on inflation to going full Cocaine Bear by screeching that President Trump was killing people with his economic agenda.

As President Trump’s big budget bill neared a crucial vote in the Senate on Monday, PBS News Hour’s most biased reporter, Laura Barron-Lopez, covered only one side of a critical part of the bill federal health care spending on Medicare and Medicaid. The sole guest for the segment not only represented a liberal health group, KFF (previously known as the Kaiser Family Foundation), but…

Friday’s edition of NBC Nightly News might have seemed to give both sides their say on President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, but given who White House correspondent Kelly O’Donnell chose to highlight, viewers would have come away with the impression that it was lower taxes on tips were coming at the expense of other people getting sick and dying.

ABC was surprisingly the only major broadcast network to break in Thursday afternoon for a special report on the House passage of President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, which he’s slated to sign into law Friday. What was unsurprising, however, was the ABC presented a wholly negative perspective declaring the bill was to “mostly” benefit “the wealthiest Americans” while stating as though it’s a…

Ahead of its final passage in the House, the big three broadcast networks all gave blatantly biased reports Thursday on their flagship morning shows about President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill. ABC’s Good Morning America, CBS Mornings, and NBC's Today all told the same story, one that devoted noticeably more attention to Democrats as they stalled on the House…

Congresswoman Jen Kiggans (R-VA) — who represents a swing district encompassing Virginia’s Eastern Shore and much of the Hampton Roads region — took to Thursday’s CBS Mornings Plus and calmly explained the facts behind the Big, Beautiful Bill, specifically changes to Medicaid and its unsustainable path without reform.

With the tax and spending bill known as the “One Big, Beautiful Bill” passing the Senate, it appears that the legacy media’s evening newscasts mostly chose to offer up a rehash of their coverage ahead of the Senate vote. Critical in spots and argumentative in others, and in stark contrast with coverage garnered by big legislation secured for the Biden administration.

HBO’s John Oliver was in a bit of a difficult position for Sunday’s edition of Last Week Tonight. The previous week he suggested that President Trump was on the verge of putting the country into the middle of another Middle East disaster, but that prediction didn’t come true, so he did the best thing he could: hope everyone forgot that he said he would have more to say about that and…

The Legacy Media took turns taking potshots at the One Big, Beautiful Bill in their network evening newscasts. This is in stark contrast to how large Biden-era legislation was covered and serves to remind us that if it weren’t for double standards, there’d be none at all.

On Thursday, the Supreme Court greenlit South Carolina’s efforts to remove abortion providers, such as Planned Parenthood, from the state’s Medicaid reimbursement program. Naturally, MSNBC’s Ana Cabrera Reports freaked out over the decision, with Law Prof. Leah Litman warning the move could lead to a rise in cancer.

The embodiment of the kind of acceptable liberal journalist to today’s left, CBS Evening News Plus has always ended with anchor John Dickerson let it rip on whatever issue he desires weighing in on. Increasingly, it’s been political and snide, giving his opinion on how much he loathes Trump and the MAGA agenda. Thursday was no exception as he denounced the Big, Beautiful Bill as…

Since launching the CBS Evening News Plus, anchor John Dickerson has ended the show with a “Reporter’s Notebook” segment disguised as an often partisan commentary (and not that he needs one given the absurdity of his CBS Evening News the half-hour prior), but for Tuesday’s installment, he ghoulishly tied rural health care and men’s mental health to the proposed work…
