Following the fourth 2024 Republican presidential debate, the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC shrugged Thursday morning not only at the notion they matter, but showed varying degrees of rage over the fact that the debate helmed by NewsNation’s Elizabeth Vargas, SiriusXM’s Megyn Kelly, and the Free Beacon’s Eliana Johnson wasn’t dominated by questions about Donald Trump and instead beset with…

On Tuesday night during a taped interview with Fox’s Sean Hannity, former President Trump refused to directly answer questions about whether he’d abuse presidential powers and/or break the law if he received a second term. In turn, ABC, CBS, and NBC naturally latched onto that to hyperventilate into their proverbial brown paper bags and thus downplay President Biden admitting he wouldn’t be…

Friday’s CBS Mornings did its best to all but ignore Thursday night’s fiery debate on the Fox News Channel between Governors Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and Gavin Newsom (D-CA) by stashing it in the Eye Opener (which we at NewsBusters don’t formally account as most of it’s teases for segments), but the others stepped up to the plate with full stories on ABC’s Good Morning America and…

ABC chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl took his book tour to CBS and Thursday’s edition of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert because if you are a liberal media personality with an anti-Trump book to sell that is simply what you do. During the interview, Karl told Colbert that he wrote the book to preempt arguments from the Trump Campaign that a second Trump term is…

On Tuesday, ABC’s chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl’s third anti-Trump book hits shelves and will send Resistance types into further episodes of collective hyperventilation over Trump and the GOP as threats to national security who must be crushed in 2024. Karl hawked the book on Monday’s Good Morning America and lashed out at voters for “not” having “paid much attention to…

The Acela Media have gone into howling conniptions over the idea that U.S. Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) might run for president in 2024. The latest instance of such howling comes via Politico’s Jonathan Martin who, on ABC’s This Week, fretted over a potential GOP takeover of the Senate as a result of Manchin’s retirement, before saying that it is “imperative” that President Biden talk…

While NBC’s Today gave predictably sober, serious coverage Thursday to its Republican presidential debate from the night before, ABC’s Good Morning America lampooned the debate as a pointless trip into the “Twilight Zone” and “divorced from reality” and CBS Mornings dismissed its necessity given the “disciplined” and “smart” race being run by the Donald Trump…

All was anything but quiet on the broadcast network front early Monday as ABC, CBS, and NBC covered the latest 2024 polls during the flagship news morning news, ranging from disgust with voters refusing to believe “strong” economic data to outright petrification over the “frightening” “wakeup call” and the supposed stupidity of “voters” having yet to “come to terms with what he is talking…

Leftists quite frequently trash their opponents by saying they have "blood on their hands." This is quite common in gun-control debates. The media doesn't object to the Left employing it. But on Sunday, ABC This Week host Jonathan Karl freaked out that Republican presidential candidate Tim Scott would say Biden has blood on his hands -- for the October 7 mass murder of Israelis. 

During the post-GOP presidential debate analysis on Thursday’s CBS Mornings and ABC’s Good Morning America (GMA), liberal journalists bellyached that the seven candidates didn’t obsess over the four indictments against former President Trump or fixate on a recent Truth Social post calling for charges to be brought against former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen.…

ABC’s This Week co-moderator Jonathan Karl showed how blinded he is by his leftist partisanship Sunday when he began arguing with South Carolina Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace that there’s no evidence to support the Biden bribery scandal. This despite the mountain of evidence that’s already been uncovered by congressional investigations into Hunter Biden that have implicated…

On Sunday's This Week on ABC, co-moderator Jonathan Karl dredged up the disgraced former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Tony Fauci to discuss the reported uptick in COVID cases in the United States. While Fauci didn't explicitly push for mask mandates and boosters, when pressed by Karl he did advocate for their effectiveness despite the fact that…

When it comes to elections, the media should be pro-debate, especially when no votes have officially been cast, but the post-non Trump debate coverage on Thursday’s Good Morning America on ABC and CBS Mornings dismissed the whole thing as a “fantasy land” that resembled a “job interview” in which the candidate has already been selected.

Friday afternoon began with a bang as Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland made a move to further protect President Biden, Hunter Biden, and his own tail by giving David Weiss the title of special counsel (while also keeping U.S. Attorney status) to further investigate Hunter. As CBS’s Catherine Herridge and others sniffed out, Garland’s decision after the collapse of the plea deal between…
