After Judge Amy Coney Barrett was announced Saturday as President Trump’s third Supreme Court pick, CNN started throwing things at the wall to see what stuck. Among their reactions included nods to Merrick Garland (yes, really), insisting Barrett will be a galvanizer for Democrats to the ludicrous claim liberals appeared to be behaving themselves and not personally attacking Barrett.

For weeks, CNN’s New Day has been claiming that President Trump has been harming the election process by making claims of voter fraud and abuse. It is hard to imagine how these statements could be hurting the process more than New Day did by openly speculating, with no evidence, that the only way Trump can win reelection is by using the military or the justice department to…

CNN's Alisyn Camerota says on New Day that, when it came to the handling of the cororavirus, President Trump "choked like a dog." To do so, Camerota employed a wily variation of the "some would say" dodge that Katie Couric would infamously employ to take a nasty shot that she didn't dare put in her own mouth. In this case, Camerota claimed that it was President Trump himself who would say of…

The talking heads featured in CNN’s post-Republican National Convention commentary on Thursday were clutching their pearls so tightly they were being turned to dust. The network was so ready for the convention to be over with, that just mere seconds after President Trump finished speaking his last syllable, the Zuckerville collective were spouting off with accusations that the convention was “…

Proving how sleazy and scummy they were, CNN disrupted night four of the Republican National Convention to launch a disgusting attack on Ann Dorn, the widow of retired police Captain David Dorn. Her crime? Daring to speak about the radical leftist mobs torching American cities, and who killed her husband as he defended their pawn shop during the George Floyd riots.

Republican National Convention has become a proving ground for how inconsistent the CNN was in terms of treating both political parties fairly. As NewsBusters’ associate editor Scott Whitlock documented last week, the anti-Trump news outlet only interrupted night two of the Democratic National Convention once. But for night two of the RNC, CNN disrupted the proceedings four times to whine…

Night two of the Democratic National Convention was yet another snooze fest that CNN let dominate their prime time line up. Following the conclusion with a musical performance by John Legend, the Zuckerville collective immediately took to praising it as “very emotional,” with one swooning for Jill Biden’s accent, and another appearing to defend how boring it was as a metaphor for how the…

On Friday’s New Day, CNN co-host John Berman and guest host Erica Hill joined forces with political correspondent Abby Phillip to forward Democratic talking points about President Trump objecting to sinking more taxpayer dollars into the postal service. The partisan hacks entered into tin-foil-hat territory when Hill claimed that Trump desires “to make sure that an American's right to…

On Wednesday’s New Day, co-host John Berman and guest host Erica Hill colluded with senior political reporter Nia-Malika Henderson, political correspondent Abby Phillip, and political producer Jasmine Wright to gush over Joe Biden choosing Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) as his running mate. Phillip praised Harris’s “broad appeal” and Henderson stumped for the Democratic ticket by…

On Friday’s New Day, CNN co-host John Berman and guest host Erica Hill conspired with political correspondent Abby Phillip to protect Joe Biden from his racist comments that he made at a virtual convention with the National Association of Black Journalists and the National Association of Latino Journalists. Phillip excused Biden as being “a gaffe machine." 

It turns out the news media can’t even report bad news without making it worse. Multiple outlets pushed a false statistic that U.S. GDP fell 32.9 percent in the second quarter. Fact: It fell 9.5 percent. Not 32.9 percent. The 32.9 percent figure is more than three times higher than what actually happened.

While most of the coverage of John Lewis' memorial focused on his role in the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960's and later career as a congressman, CNN's Abby Phillip and Dana Bash argued on Monday's special edition of CNN Newsroom that if Americans wanted to honor Lewis' legacy, they should embrace not just Lewis' dedication to civil rights and racial equality, but also his…

On Friday morning’s New Day, CNN co-hosts Jim Sciutto and Alisyn Camerota brought on political correspondent Abby Phillip to campaign for their presidential candidate, Joe Biden. The hacks bashed President Trump and fawned over Biden’s campaign strategy. Most outrageously, Phillip accused Trump of forwarding segregationist policies, when Biden literally was a segregationist in the…
