The major broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC have spent days bellyaching and screeching about Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) sending flights of less than 50 illegal immigrants to ultra-liberal Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, so it was only natural Tuesday that their morning shows would be ebullient over a far-left Texas sheriff launching a criminal investigation of DeSantis.

On Wednesday, former President & First Lady Barack and Michelle Obama returned to the White House to unveil their official White House portraits, and right on cue, the leftist media were tripping over themselves to gush and praise their first loves. 

The liberal media have spent years insisting that rhetoric from Donald Trump and his supporters about the media and their leftists allies are not only wrong, but dangerous. However, when it comes to their friends inflaming tensions and assigning the worst motives to conservatives, the liberal media either ignore it or endorse it and that’s what they did in trumpeting President Biden’s “fiery”…

The “big three” broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC tried on Wednesday morning to resurrect the Democratic Party’s midterm election prospects, using the results of a special election for a Hudson Valley seat in dark blue New York to insist their side has the “momentum” and a “road map” to put up “a fiercer fight” against Republicans by foisting abortion on voters as their top issue.

Picking up where they left off during their respective morning shows, the three evening broadcast network news shows on Monday gushed over the passage of the so-called “Inflation Reduction Act” which they labeled as “blockbuster” and “historic.” 

Happy days are here again was the mantra Monday for the broadcast network morning news shows following the Senate’s passage of the massive spending boondoggle, deeming it a “landmark,” “sweeping,” and “hard-fought win” for President Biden as Democrats hope to win the midterm elections. This was despite the fact that, tucked inside their exuberant segments, not only was President Biden…

The broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC were ebullient Wednesday morning as they basked in what they deemed a “resounding victory” and “earthquake” for abortion in Kansas as there was a “massive show of support” to defeat a referendum that would have given the state legislature the power to enact pro-life measures in the Sunflower State.

The networks were ecstatic when Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) announced his support for the Inflation Reduction Act. So ecstatic, that they seemingly forgot their role as journalists, instead mindlessly parroting White House talking points about the bill despite the Joint Committee on Taxation saying it would increase taxes on people earning less than $400,000, despite the Biden administration’s…

As pro-abortion radicals rioted and attacked pro-lifers in the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe vs. Wade, the network newscasts mostly looked the other way. They offered scant coverage and repeatedly insisted that the last several days have been “mostly” or “largely” peaceful. 

Following months of build-up and a plethora of coverage (seven minutes and 56 seconds) previewing Thursday’s primetime hearing of the House Select Committee on January 6, ABC’s Good Morning America went all-out on Friday with nearly 12 minutes (11:55) hyping the “powerful,” “high-stakes, primetime hearing” detailing the “carnage at the Capitol” that included Congresswoman Liz Cheney (…

On Tuesday, Hollywood actor Matthew McConaughey took to the White House podium to plead for Congress to pass stricter gun control laws in the aftermath of the mass shootings in Buffalo and Uvalde. As per their usual arrangement, the evening news broadcasts were more than happy to act as stenographers for the leftist agenda. 

On the Monday morning broadcast network newscasts, ABC, CBS, and NBC continued to promote the inflated definition of mass shootings from the Gun Violence Archive in light of weekend shootings in Chattanooga, Tennessee and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, claiming there were 13 weekend mass shootings. And, worse yet, they absolved far-left cities and prosecutors from being a reason for spikes in…

On Friday, the “big three” broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC each led off their morning newscasts with laudatory praise for President Biden’s latest remarks calling for mass gun control, trumpeting it as “an impassioned” and “urgent plea” for Republicans to capitulate to the demands of this “emotional” President.

NewsBusters deputy managing editor Nick Fondacaro and I assumed the helm for Friday’s show and, following a heavy week for the country following Tuesday’s deadly school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, we spent the episode doing a deep dive on the various liberal media narratives that immediately came to the surface.
