‘Not Yet’: ABC, NBC Downplay ‘Extremist’ Motive in Sydney Terrorism
In covering this weekend’s deadly anti-Semitic terror attack in Australia, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today engaged in a throwback of sorts on Monday to past terror attacks in Europe by refusing to refer to the attack as having been committed by two Islamists who may have been followers of the Islamic State (ISIS). Instead, they insisted the attack was “targeted...…
Weiss Makes On-Air Debut at Major CBS Show, Emphasizes Open Debate
With an appearance on Friday’s CBS Mornings, CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss made her formal on-air debut on one of the network’s flagship newscasts and she made it count as it was to both promote Saturday’s airing of a town hall she had taped earlier this week with Erika Kirk and set the tone for what should be the network’s future of embracing a diversity of views.
ABC Paints Trump Economy as in Turmoil, Slams ‘Vicious’ Jabs at Omar
While all three networks went hard in the paint Wednesday morning against President Trump and painted the economy as in turmoil, ABC’s Good Morning America was particular vicious with an entirely negative story and zero recognition of how economic indicators have improved vis-à-vis the Biden economy.
CBS Finally Names Dokoupil the New Anchor of the ‘CBS Evening News’
Following months of rumors, CBS News’s parent company Paramount Skydance announced Wednesday that CBS Mornings co-host Tony Dokoupil will become the new anchor of the CBS Evening News on January 5, signifying editor-in-chief Bari Weiss’s biggest gamble yet, the network’s most serious attempt to break out of a lifetime in third place, and the most concrete effort to nudge a…
CBS Comings and Goings: Why in the World Is Bari Hiring This Guy?
CBS News remained in the headlines last week vis-à-vis comings and goings as editor-in-chief Bari Weiss further having a look under the proverbial hood. This time, we saw a date for the expected departure of CBS Evening News co-anchor Maurice DuBois and a reported desire to sign CBS Mornings co-host Tony Dokoupil to the PM chair, but most notable was a questionable decision…
CBS Shows IVF Screening Company that Denies Eugenics Characterization
Wednesday’s CBS Mornings showcased a genetic screening company that allows parents to select which embryo they would like to in-vitro fertilize. Co-host Tony Dokoupil interviewed founder and CEO of Nucleus Genomics Kian Sadeghi, who denied comparisons to the eugenics movement.
CBS Spotlights FDNY Boss Resigning Over Anti-Israel, Communist Mamdani
In another sign of the kinds of interviews and news stories we should expect and demand from a CBS-run Bari Weiss, Wednesday’s CBS Mornings aired a heavily-promoted first interview with New York City Fire Department (FDNY) Commissioner Robert Tucker, who’s stepping down next month in direct response to the city’s election of anti-Israel and avowed socialist Zohran Mamdani.
CBS, NBC Hail JFK Grandson, ‘Influencer’ Schlossberg Running for House
On Wednesday, CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today predictably served as clapping seals in celebrating Jack Schlossberg — the grandson of John F. Kennedy and thus royalty on the left — launching a bid for a Manhattan-area House seat despite having only been an “influencer” and a self-described provocateur on social media. In other words, he’s never had a real job.
FINALLY: With the End Near, Networks Admit Dems Caused the Shutdown
Just like they waited until either Joe Biden had bumbled in the June 2024 debate or he was out of office to admit he wasn’t in charge of his faculties, the “Big Three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC awoke Monday morning by telling viewers it was Democrats who had a “whole strategy” to “drive the country into a shutdown,” but lost out when eight defectors “back[ed] away from what they’ve been demanding”…
‘This Is Bari’s CBS’; Puck Dishes on Future Cuts, Wooing Cooper to EN
In his indispensable Wednesday night dispatch at Puck News, Dylan Byers reported on the latest inside CBS News following layoffs of nearly 100 people and suggesting there’s more than smoke to rumors of editor-in-chief Bari Weiss expressing interest in having 60 Minutes correspondent/CNN host Anderson Cooper become the next CBS Evening News anchor.
CBS Torches Sanders Over Gov’t Shutdown, Americans Not Trusting Dems
Along with a brutal and viral grilling of Biden White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, Monday’s CBS Mornings also showed new editor-in-chief Bari Weiss it’s serious about following her directive to appeal to the middle of the country by also taking to task socialist Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) on everything from the shutdown to Democrat Party approval numbers.
KJP Is SLAMMED by CBS for Defending Biden, Claiming to Be Independent
Biden regime White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre kicked off her book tour on Monday’s CBS Mornings and CBS Mornings Plus and, unfortunately for her, she did not receive softballs. With the Bari Weiss effect increasingly appearing to take hold, Jean-Pierre was confronted over her deranged claims that it was wrong to force President Biden out of the 2024 race, she…
CBS Reporter Gives Equal Time to Israeli Hostages, Palestinian Thugs
Since Hamas’s barbarism on October 7, 2023, one of the worst broadcast network correspondents has been CBS’s Debora Patta in sucking up to the Palestinian cause (read: Hamas). It was thus unsurprising her lead-off segment on Monday’s CBS Mornings actually gave equal time in the three-minute-and-24-second segment to the 20 living Israeli hostages and the nearly 2,000 Palestinians being…
CBS Rips Comedians Taking Cash for Restrictive Shows in Saudi Arabia
Perhaps the single biggest change new CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss could make to the liberal and perpetually third-place network is simply covering stories their competition (ABC and CBS) avoid and/or simply defend American values. One such example was on Tuesday’s CBS Mornings as senior foreign correspondent Holly Williams blasted A-list comedians taking huge paydays to…
