A New York Times front-page expose Sunday tore the lid off the scandal of underage migrant workers being used as illegal child labor: “Alone and Exploited, Migrant Children Work Brutal Jobs Across the U.S..” The online headline deck: “Arriving in record numbers, they’re ending up in dangerous jobs that violate child labor laws -- including in factories that make products for well-…

PBS coverage of President Biden’s State of the Union address Tuesday evening begin with special pleading for the president on the NewsHour, with co-host Amna Nawaz querying Sen. John Thune (R-SD). After Thune called for more bipartisanship from Biden, Nawaz insisted that President Joe “Jim Crow 2.0” Biden had in fact been more than bipartisan. Before Biden’s long State of the Union…

On Monday evening, PBS NewsHour co-anchors Geoff Bennett and Amna Nawaz delivered taxpayer-funded anti-gun activism as the two hosted back-to-back segments that pushed for more gun restrictions.

Failed New Mexico politician Solomon Pena, who lost his race for a state House seat in November but refused to concede, has been arrested for allegedly hiring four men to shoot up the houses of local Democratic politicians (thankfully no one was hurt). The PBS NewsHour spent 10 minutes covering Pena, and prominently noted his support for Trump and Pena referring to himself as a “MAGA…

Not even the loss in November’s congressional elections of many so-called election deniers has stopped PBS from fear-mongering about dangers to democracy. Thursday’s PBS NewsHour featured two hosts and two professors in total agreement about the ongoing perfidy of the Republican Party and the threat to democracy it poses, even as vital electoral reforms like the Electoral Count Reform…

AOC recently turned 33, so it’s time for a younger socialist Democrat for the media to swoon over. In September, I found at least eight sappy national interviews with 25-year-old Maxwell Frost in Florida. After he won the general election in a blue district by 19 points and became the first member of Generation Z to win a House seat, the swoon cycle began all over again.

During all the tributes and stories on the death of Queen Elizabeth II, many media outlets — somewhat surprisingly — fondly commented on the enduring and close friendship between Ronald Reagan and the Queen, calling the conservative icon “the best,” the man who “got the relationship right” and was Elizabeth’s “favorite.” 

On Thursday, your tax dollars paid for PBS NewsHour to run a puff piece on radical Missouri Congresswoman Cori Bush for the 57th anniversary of the Selma to Montgomery marches. During the profile, Bush would be compared to previous civil rights activists and praised for her support for the Black Lives Matter movement and perpetual eviction moratoriums.

MSNBC's 11th Hour host Stephanie Ruhle recapped Tuesday’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings by accusing Republican senators of waging culture wars for the sake of pleasing Fox News. While Ruhle accused Republicans of not dealing with facts, she and her guests omitted a few key facts of their own.

On Monday’s MTP Daily, fill-in co-host Garrett Haake and a panel of liberal pundits lamented that President Biden was not seeing a “Zelenskyy bounce” in the polls for his handling of the war Ukraine. For some reason they thought the overwhelming popularity of the heroic Ukrainian leader, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, should transfer to Biden.

On Monday afternoon, MSNBC host Geoff Bennett treated the oil spill off the coast of California as an opportunity to bring on Penn State University's Michael Mann and allow him to argue in favor of cutting the use of fossil fuels which the frequent MSNBC guest again questionably blamed for making hurricanes worse.

Unbelievably, the CBS Evening News thought the day after President Biden’s arbitrary deadline to get Americans out of Afghanistan was the perfect time to drop the subject completely. There was absolutely no mention of Afghanistan on their Wednesday newscast but they found the time to dedicate over two minutes (2:05) to bashing and decrying Texas’s new pro-life law. And while they…

The media's obsession with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis continued on Tuesday as Katy Tur Reports guest host Geoff Bennett let Agriculture Commissioner and gubernatorial candidate Nikki Fried spread multiple untruths about DeSantis' pandemic response. That Fried was allowed to spread such claims was not surprising as Bennett's questioning relied on similarly false premises.

NBC White House reporter Geoff Bennett sat in for MSNBC host Katy Tur on Thursday, and typically promoted the idea that the Democrats aren't radical enough. His guest was Adam Serwer of The Atlantic, and Bennett promoted his article titled "Democratic Leaders Are Betraying Black Voters." Serwer accused the GOP of "experimenting with voter suppression."
