As NewsBusters documented Thursday morning, the anniversary of January 6 was their Super Bowl as the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) spent nearly 90-combined-minutes obsessing over the riot at the Capitol like their political careers depended on it. That infatuation cared over through half-time (to stick with the football nomenclature) to their evening newscasts where CBS and NBC each…

The ABC, CBS and NBC evening networks ignored a damning story connecting “Boston Bomber” Dzhokhar Tsarnaev to President Joe Biden’s disastrous stimulus bill.

Maybe ABC should be renamed CPN: The Cuomo Protection Network. The journalists at ABC are going out of their way to hide each new Cuomo scandal, whether it’s Andrew or former network host Chris. On Tuesday, it was announced that New York is ordering the ex-New York Governor to return the $5 million he received for his bragging book about handling Covid. 

The ABC, CBS and NBC evening news networks have gone four days without covering Black Lives Matter issuing a racist call to boycott white-owned businesses.

In late October, ABC’s World News Tonight spend 16 seconds teasing how the price for your Thanksgiving dinner was going to increase in anticipation of the fuller picture that would show itself as the holiday drew closer. But with the price of turkey up 20 percent, other meats up 11.9 percent, and fuel up 50 percent, ABC was nowhere to be seen while CBS Evening News was…

After the 2017 New Jersey and Virginia elections, where Democrats swept to victory, the networks the next day delighted in a “stinging rebuke” that “lifted” the spirts of Democrats. Four years later on Wednesday, as Republicans won in deep-blue Virginia and hold a lead in very deep blue New Jersey, ABC, CBS and NBC again tried to focus the results back on Donald Trump. 

On Monday, both NBC’s Today and CBS Mornings devoted significant air time to promoting the new memoir from longtime Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin while lamenting how the scandals that swirled around her disgraced ex-husband Anthony Weiner may have been what cost Clinton the 2016 election. The CBS coverage even imagined an alternate reality where the Democrat “could be in…

The ABC, CBS and NBC evening networks censored another disastrous economic report that incriminates the feckless policies of President Joe Biden. The Commerce Department’s new report showed that third quarter annualized GDP growth was an abysmal 2 percent. Bloomberg News referred to it as the “[w]eakest” growth of the pandemic recovery.

Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe reportedly bought ads promoting what Fox News called a “fake news” website to boost his image on social media. And the broadcast evening news shows censored it.

It’s been almost two months since the White House pulled former ATF official David Chipman’s nomination to lead the bureau after he was sunk by evidence of racist actions against black agents during a previous tenure there. Ignoring those facts, CBS Evening News thought Wednesday was the perfect time to have a sit-down interview with Chipman, lament that he wasn’t the director, and…

In 2019, NewsBusters reported that in her first six weeks at the helm of CBS Evening News, anchor Norah O’Donnell was floundering in the ratings. A couple of years later and things weren’t much better. And according to a Sunday report by The New York Post, she was “in danger of losing” her job “as cost-slashing execs at the broadcasting giant quietly search for her replacement,” and…

Over the weekend, a group of parents gathered outside the Department of Justice to protest the suggestion that parents outraged at radical leftist school boards were domestic terrorists. They stayed on message against schools poisoning kids with Critical Race Theory and apparent pornography in school books. Meanwhile, the evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC kept silent on the rally as the…

Last week, both CBS Evening News and NBC’s Today show peddled a smear against concerned parents protesting and rallying against their local school boards, parroting comments from the National School Boards Association attacking them as taking part in “domestic terrorism.” Now with the Biden Justice Department sicking the FBI’s anti-terrorism assets on American parents, those…

Monday was day one of the new session of the Supreme Court and the liberal media were absolutely terrified by what ruling could come from the conservative majority when it came to the right to life and Second Amendment rights. CBS and NBC both attempted to stir their viewers into sharing their fright as they warned that abortions could be outlawed and people could carry a firearm for self-…
