15 Years After Lauer’s BOTCHED Prediction: ‘Countdown to Doomsday'
June 19th, 2021 12:15 PM
One way in which journalists try and terrify viewers into endorsing every expensive environmental prescription is to constantly – and wrongly – predict the apocalypse is just around the corner. Fifteen years ago this week, the not-yet-disgraced Matt Lauer did exactly that with a two hour special outsourced to the SyFy Channel: “Countdown to Doomsday.”

May 14th, 2021 3:56 PM
While NBC’s Today show was eager to hail Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney for bashing fellow Republicans during an exclusive interview on Thursday, back in 2012, the broadcast questioned whether her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, deserved a life-saving heart transplant.

NBC & ABC Tout Laughable Lauer ‘Fact-Check’ of Rape Claims
May 20th, 2020 12:19 PM
It’s funny how liberal journalists suddenly warn of media bias when they are the ones facing press scrutiny. That hypocrisy was on full display Tuesday, when Mediaite decided to publish an op/ed from disgraced former Today show host Matt Lauer, who portrayed himself as a victim of “shoddy journalism.” On Wednesday, both NBC’s Today and ABC’s Good Morning America seized on the article, framing it…
Ex-NBC Journalist Recounts Her Own Sexual Harassment at Network
May 12th, 2020 9:53 AM
NBC does not have the best history when it comes to the #MeToo movement or dealing with sexual harassment in general.

FLASHBACK: NBC Employed Lauer, But Buries Tara Reade Sex Abuse Story
May 2nd, 2020 12:15 PM
The networks and cable channels have been dragged, very slowly to the Tara Reade sexual assault allegations against Joe Biden.

But what took the network so long? Well, one might recall that NBC hired and employed Matt…

Just prior to the Patriots facing off against the Rams in Super Bowl LIII, Donald Trump will talk to CBS journalist Margaret Brennan during the pregame show. It’s his second as President since talking to Fox's Bill O’Reilly for the 2017 Super Bowl (skipping it in 2018).

Bozell & Graham Column: The Media's Dreadful Impeachment Partisanship
January 28th, 2020 10:57 PM
One favorite tactic of our “objective” media during the Trump impeachment is to find a clip of the president’s legal experts expressing an opinion during the Bill Clinton impeachment in 1998 and 1999 and then showing a contrast with the present day. But this is just as easily demonstrated with the press. In both impeachments, the press flipped to whichever talking points were in use by the…

Liberal Rant Earns Reporter Anchor Chair on Morning Show Drama
November 5th, 2019 6:30 PM
Apple TV+'s flagship series, The Morning Show, was inspired by a book by CNN's Brian Stelter and it shows. Clearly meant to be prestige television in the mold of HBO, the series is more preachy, self-indulgent Newsroom than juicy, story-driven Big Little Lies.
