Nets Ignore McAuliffe’s Ties to Firm Fighting AGAINST Rape Victims
As NewsBusters has been reporting in recent days, the broadcast networks were going all-in on trying to keep Democrat Terry McAuliffe’s dwindling chances to win the gubernatorial in Virginia alive.

On Thursday night, ABC, CBS, NBC went all out in their refusal to critique or fact-check President Joe Biden’s erroneous gun control speech from hours earlier, instead siding with the President’s attempts to hurt law-abiding citizens, pass off stabilizing braces as some menacing feature, and lament the lack of wider anti-gun measures. And when it came to offering an opposing opinion, ABC and…

Faux Psaki: ABC Plays WH Spox for a Day, Touts Biden’s Tax Increases
With the Biden administration trying to suggest anything that the sun touches is infrastructure, ABC was more than happy on Wednesday night to both help lobby support for the $2 trillion item bolstered by tax increases but also mislead by painting the plan as a traditional transportation package.
