They Think You Are Dumb: Nets Continue Spin of 2020 ‘Moderate’ Dems
The journalists at CBS This Morning on Monday waved goodbye to Pete Buttigieg’s 2020 campaign with one last disingenuous claim that the liberal Democrat is a “moderate.” This weekend, all three networks cheered mysterious “moderate” alternatives to Bernie Sanders.

MSNBC on Coronavirus Response: At Least 'We Trusted Richard Nixon'

Nets Join Dems in Painting Gun Rights Advocates as Violent Terrorists

Lara Logan Torches Former Colleagues Playing Footsie with Iran
On Wednesday, our friends at the Daily Caller flagged a blistering appearance by former CBS News journalist host Lara Logan on Tuesday’s Ingraham Angle schooling her former establishment media colleagues for their “depressing” display of infatuation with the Iranian government and hatred for President Trump.

ABC Touts 2020 Dem Fundraising, Skips How Trump Beat Them All
In their Thursday report on the state of the Democratic primary at the start of the election year, ABC’s World News Tonight took the opportunity to boast about how well their candidates were doing terms of fundraising.

NBC & ABC Only See Republicans ‘Vulnerable’ on Impeachment
On Thursday, the NBC and ABC morning shows rang in the new year by hyping only Republican senators being politically “vulnerable” on impeachment and “potential breaks in the GOP ranks.” There was no discussion of Democratic lawmakers paying a political price for supporting the radical action against President Trump and the coverage even seemed to place them in the driver’s seat of the…
By Bombing Hezbollah, Trump Is Bombing 'War Heroes' Says MSNBC
You can stop looking for the top example of Trump Derangement Syndrome, because it was found on Wednesday's MSNBC Live.

MSNBC Blames Trump For Embassy Crisis in Iraq

Media Impressed With Biden Ad Showing Media Attack Trump
On Thursday, NBC and MSNBC eagerly touted a new ad from the Biden campaign that featured several liberal journalists attacking President Trump with hostile coverage of his overseas trip to the NATO summit.

Nets Bury Racial Blunder By Buttigieg, Instead Cheer ‘Exciting' Dem
All three networks on Monday hailed the “surging,” “exciting” Pete Buttigieg’s “major moment” in Iowa polls. But they avoided a racial blunder by the 2020 Democratic candidate, as well as the fact that his polling with African Americans in the critical primary state of South Carolina is at an astonishing 0 percent. The Buttigieg campaign attempted to tout the Mayor’s Douglass Plan (as in…
