Rachel Maddow

Media Research Center Founder and President Brent Bozell joined the Wednesday edition of the Fox Business Network’s Varney & Co. to analyze the media’s over-the-top praise of President Joe Biden’s State of the Union Address.

The final pre-election hearing of the Pelosi-picked January 6 Committee was overtly designed as midterm messaging for the Democrats -- including in fundraising emails. The media coverage suggests one party is in favor of democracy, and the other one is a mortal threat to democracy. We discuss the patterns with NewsBusters Managing Editor Curtis Houck.

On Thursday during MSNBC's special coverage of the House select committee's hearing on the riots at the United States Capitol Building on January 6, 2021, Nicolle Wallace the host of the network's Deadline: White House, made the fact-free claim that the so-called "threat to democracy" is a top three issue for voters in the looming 2022 midterm elections. This is despite there being…

On the heels of disgraced Doctor Anthony Fauci’s announcement that he will be leaving his job as a government bureaucrat after forty years on the government dole, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow rewarded him with a fawning interview on her primetime show. 

In an interview with Deadline.com, MSNBC host Alex Wagner -- now filling in four of the five nightly shows in the Rachel Maddow hour -- said "the urgency of the hour is figuring out how to dismantle, or at least undercut a system that has effectively spun a web of lies for the American public." That's a not-so-veiled attack on Fox News.

The following are the worst outbursts from Alex Wagner via the MRC’s archive.

On Monday night, Rachel Maddow fulsomely interviewed Josh Shapiro, the Democrat nominee in the governor's race in Pennsylvania, about how his opponent Doug Mastriano is a dangerous, anti-democratic extremist, and never asked Shapiro why -- if he was such a danger -- Shapiro spent almost a million dollars trying to help him win the Republican nomination. Nicolle Wallace did this, too.

MSNBC named Alex Wagner to host the Maddow hour from Tuesday to Friday. We discuss why MSNBC thinks she's somehow their Cronkite. She's been boosted as a "high-powered intellect" whose show is more facts than opinions.

On Monday, RedState’s Bob Hoge reported: “MSNBC ratings continue to crater as its most popular host, Rachel Maddow, now only appears on Mondays, despite reportedly signing a massive $30 million a year contract.” He noted that while the mostly-absent left-wing host “presumably relaxes at home, MSNBC still calls the 9 pm time slot ‘The Rachel Maddow Show,’ but it’s fill-in hosts such as Ali…

Following the bombshell report from Politico that according to a leaked draft of a Supreme Court decision which was written in February, the Supreme Court appears poised to strike down Roe vs Wade, MSNBC hosts Chris Hayes and Rachel Maddow were on the verge of a complete meltdown over the possibility that the states would have the ability to decide whether abortion is legal or not.

According to a report by the Daily Beast, MSNBC was looking to replace Rachel Maddow with former MSNBC host Keith Olbermann until Maddow voiced opposition to the move. "NBCUniversal CEO Jeff Shell and NBCUniversal News Group Chairman Cesar Conde were in talks with Olbermann about returning to the network, Olbermann told Source Material, a newsletter for the Daily Beast. But those…

The Democrat Party often wonders why it can’t compete with Republicans in rural midwestern states. If they look at their favorite cable network's rhetoric they will know why that is. Moments after Iowa Republican Governor Kim Reynolds finished her response to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address, Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O’Donnell mocked her. 

Moments after President Joe Biden finished his divisive State of the Union address and walked away from the podium on the House floor Tuesday night, MSNBC’s initial reaction was to whine that the speech didn’t attack Republicans enough. 

Less than a week after NewsBusters caught her deceptively editing a statement provided to her by Florida Department of Health press secretary Jeremy Redfern, Maddow decided to deceive her viewers one more time before she heads out the door for a month-long hiatus, this time by editing remarks given by Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis.
