MSNBC Condemns Corporations For Donating to Republicans
On her Twitter bio, NBC's Jane Timm describes herself as a "Senior reporter telling stories about voting rights."

After all they are still giving money to Republicans.

Scarborough Slaps At MSNBC Sore Losers Crying 'CRT Not Real'
Joe Scarborough didn't name names. He wants, after all, to be able to walk through the MSNBC cafeteria without being hit in the back of the head with a kale-quinoa salad.

WashPost Column: If McAuliffe Loses, Blame 'Lopsided' Media Imbalance!
The Washington Post needs to institute mandatory substance testing for its employees. Greg Sargent's latest column is headlined is "Glenn Youngkin’s repulsive final push reveals a dark truth for Democrats." And just what is that "dark truth"? It's that Terry McAuliffe might lose because GOP candidate Glenn Youngkin has benefited from "a right-wing media network that has no rival on…
Wow! CNN Calls Out McAuliffe's LIE That Youngkin Campaigned With Trump
At a rally last night, Terry McAuliffe said that Youngkin "is doing an event with Donald Trump here in Virginia ... Glenn Youngkin is closing his event with Donald Trump here in Virginia."

CNN Worried 'Kooks' Who Watch Fox News Will Run For School Boards
Heaven forbid that "kooks" — you know, the kind of people who watch Fox News — will run for school boards! That was the message from CNN Thursday morning.

WashPost Stealth Edited Loudoun Rape Story, 'Gender-Fluid' Attacker
Almost two weeks ago, on October 14, NewsBusters reported on how The Washington Post took their sweet time discovering the high school rape cases in Loudoun County, Virginia but omitted key details like the fact the first one happened in a girl’s bathroom, and how the attacker was “gender-fluid.” But there’s a new wrinkle in their reporting as NewsBusters recently discovered The…
CNN Hails Massive Democrat Spending Bill: Our 'New Deal!'
For CNN, there's only one perspective on big government: bigger is better! On New Day, the hosts and panelists could only see the positives of a $1.7 trillion spending bill, and could only hope for more. The emphasis was on what people will be "getting." The notion was that it is up to government to address every supposed need. There are endless "crises" that the government must solve…
MSNBC Decries Republicans as 'Killers' and Fascists

Mitchell Whines: Climate Is a Security Threat, Senate's Unfair!
Late in her Friday show on MSNBC, Andrea Mitchell claimed it was ironic that West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin has not gotten onboard with his party's climate initiatives, considering the state needs them more most other states and it is a national security crisis. In an interview with Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet, she also claimed the Senate to be unfair and hoped for various "carve outs" that…
Scarborough: On Voting Rights, GOP Like Wallace 'In Schoolhouse Door'
Joe Scarborough has a bad habit of riding verbal hobbyhorses into the ground. As we've often documented, as here and here, once Joe gets what he thinks is a catchy phrase into his noggin, he repeats it—ad nauseum. This morning, Scarborough's hobby horse o' the day was "schoolhouse door," with an explicit reference to George Wallace, who infamously blocked desegregation in such manner.…
On Massive Spending Bill, CNN Hits Bernie Sanders Ally From the Left!
It's not easy to get to the left of Bernie Sanders, but CNN managed on Wednesday morning to pull off that dubious feat. On New Day, co-host Brianna Keilar interviewed Dem Rep. Ro Khanna, who was a co-chair of Sanders's 2020 presidential campaign. The topic was the apparent paring down of the Democrat $3.5 trillion spending bill. Keilar consistently hit the compromises from the left.…
