Andrea Mitchell

Before she departs on Friday, we at NewsBusters wanted to take a not-so fond look back at just some of her worst moments from MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell Reports: 

In the aftermath of President Donald Trump's new policy against transgenders serving in the military, MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell gave an unchallenged forum to Delaware U.S. Representative Sarah McBride to trash Republicans for acting on the issue.

MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell loves spreading fake news about Defense Secretary-designate Pete Hegseth, and on Wednesday she was at it again. Despite court testimony and NBC’s own reporting that showed that Hegseth’s ex-wife denies their reporting about Hegseth being abusive, Mitchell claimed such allegations remain “uncontested.”

A deep dive into the MRC’s archives shows liberal reporters and anchors have been ardent participants in the so-called “honeymoon” for new Democratic Presidents, but provide a much chillier reception when it’s a Republican being sworn into office.

While the popular and successful Ronald Reagan and his legacy were denigrated by the media during his retirement, liberal journalists spent decades lavishing praise on Jimmy Carter.

Former U.S. Attorney and current MSNBC legal analyst Barbara McQuade was distressed on Wednesday’s edition of Andrea Mitchell Reports as she tried to argue that the Supreme Court would be hypocritical if it decides to uphold Tennessee’s ban on gender-altering care for minors.

Much as we’re seeing today, in 2016 liberal reporters and commentators savaged Donald Trump’s first group of appointees as “radical” and “racist” “ignoramuses” who “disdain the missions of their assigned agencies.”

On her Wednesday show, MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell spread misinformation by suggesting Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth opposes the existence of female military pilots, thereby disrespecting those women who have suffered greatly in service to their country. On Thursday, instead of issuing a correction, Mitchell doubled down and repeated the claim.

Ever since President-elect Donald Trump made the surprising announcement that he intends to nominate veteran and Fox News host Pete Hegseth to be Secretary of Defense, the media has tried to portray him as a troublesome right-wing culture warrior. However, MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell took things one step further on Wednesday as she spread straight up fake news about Hegseth.

On her eponymous show on Friday afternoon, MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell devoted a segment to a global warming alarmist who blamed recent hurricane intensity on global warming and predicted much worse storms in the future. His name is Porter Fox. He's not a credentialed scientist. He has a Bachelor's degree in Political Science and a…

After the Justice Department recently released two reports documenting crime trends in the U.S., the liberal media seized on the less accurate of the two to portray crime as being down in spite of violent crime rates (primarily in Democrat-run parts of the country) actually being up compared to five years earlier.

Adding to the stakes of who wins in November, the big issue in 2025 will be the expiration of the Trump tax cuts. A look back at the media’s performance seven years ago, as the reform package moved through Congress, shows the liberal media’s raging hostility to lower tax rates.

Four years ago this week, the media elite despaired that the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg would shift the balance of power on the Supreme Court to the right.

Using the media's coverage of Donald Trump’s three debates with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in 2016 as a guide, expect the press on Tuesday night to adore Kamala Harris’s performance, while deriding Trump as someone out of a “third world” “banana republic.”
