CBS Elevates Shoplifter as Community Pillar ‘Helping Black Trans’ Kids
In late April, homeless transgender (biologically female) Banko Brown wanted to be just another statistic in San Francisco’s infamous crime epidemic as she tried to shoplift from a Walgreens. But this Walgreens was guarded by Michael Earl Wayne Anthony, who tried to stop Brown. A scuffle ensued and Brown was shot and killed. It was this violent person that CBS Morning tried to paint…

NBC Tool Ken Dilanian Shills for Deep State, Dismisses Durham Report
In much the same way he did hours earlier on Monday’s NBC Nightly News, NBC Justice correspondent Ken Dilanian — who should be known as CIA Ken for his fealty to the agency — surfaced on Tuesday’s Today to further spin for his real bosses in the intelligence community on Special Counsel John Durham’s report on the Trump-Russia probe.

CBS Gushes Over Obama Pushing Australian-Style Gun Control
The cast of CBS Mornings oohed and aahed on Tuesday in a response to their interview of Barack Obama where the former president pushed Australian-style gun control and lamented that networks like CBS do not have the power they once did. Nate Burleson claimed the interview made him want to be a better journalist, Tony Dokoupil claimed Obama’s views on guns were “historically” correct…

BRUTAL: NBC’s Guthrie Absolutely Grills Mayorkas on the Border Crisis
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas made the rounds Friday on all three broadcast network morning news shows as Title 42 ended Thursday night and, while those on ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS Mornings were taped and fairly pedestrian, NBC’s Today had co-host Savannah Guthrie bringing the heat over the crisis at the southern border.

She Should Take KJP’s Job: ABC’s Bruce Spins for Biden on Border, Debt
Being a frequent NewsBusters reader and/or a trip to our taxonomy term for ABC chief White House correspondent Mary Bruce would give one the impression that Bruce is little more than a doormat for the Biden administration and loyally delivering the day’s preferred spin. Such was the case on Tuesday’s Good Morning America as she enthusiastically spun for President Biden on the border…

GOP Senator Calmly Swats Activist CBS Hosts Hectoring on Gun Control
Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA) walked Monday into the far-left lair of CBS Mornings that unfortunately came on the heels of the country’s latest mass shooting, this time at a mall in Allen, Texas. Sure enough, Cassidy found himself repeatedly under fire from the three leftist co-hosts demanding he “do something” to work with Democrats to end gun violence. As for what, they couldn’t say…

Nets Play Lapdog for Biden on Border Crisis; CBS Plays Massive KJP Lie
After first rediscovering the border crisis Tuesday night, the “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC used their flagship Wednesday morning news shows to spin on behalf of President Biden and his administration, insisting they’re “bracing for” the surge, “taking this seriously,” or paint them as not responsible for the unfettered surge of illegal immigration. ABC’s Good Morning America…

Hey Look! All of a Sudden the Nets Care About Hunter (Sort of)
Stunningly, the Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) networks are actually getting out of their censorship mode (for a while) to actually cover the Hunter Biden scandal.

Nets Play Corporate Whore, Cheer ‘Heavy...Hitter’ Disney vs. DeSantis
On Wednesday night and Thursday morning, the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC banded together under the banner of corporate liberalism to rally behind ABC’s parent company/“economic heavy-hitter” Disney and even some 2024 GOP presidential candidates against Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) for having created a “long-running feud” and “power struggle” for Florida supremacy.

ABC, NBC Hide BRUTAL News on Intel Letter Dismissing Hunter’s Laptop
The news got worse Thursday for Hunter Biden as it was revealed now-Secretary of State Antony Blinken was the catalyst behind the debunked and infamous October 2020 letter from former intelligence officials dismissing the surfacing of Hunter Biden’s laptop as Russian disinformation. This bombshell showing more interference in the 2020 election was nowhere to be found on the Thursday night…

CBS Rails Against AL, MO, and TX for Not Having Gun Laws Most Don’t
In the liberal media’s crusade to eliminate gun rights, no complaint is too absurd to be presented to their viewers as a serious point. CBS Mornings was guilty of this Thursday as co-anchor Tony Dokoupil singled out Alabama, Missouri, and Texas (the locations of recent mass shootings) for not requiring residents to obtain permits to buy rifles and shotguns. But only seven states out…

CBS Hails Another Lefty Comedian, Trumpets John Oliver as Truth-Teller
A day after they engaged in corporate whoring promoting Daily Show correspondent Jordan Klepper having a turn hosting the Comedy Central show this week, Tuesday’s CBS Mornings trotted out HBO’s Last Week Tonight host John Oliver as a passionate truth-teller, fawning over his “us[e] of comedy to make sense of these very complicated times” thanks to “a whole lot of research.”…

CBS Slobbers Over Conservative-Hating Klepper, Omits Failed Show
Monday’s CBS Mornings included yet another act of corporate whoring on behalf of parent company Paramount to slobber nauseating praise over the latest guest-hosted week of Daily Show episodes, which will feature longtime correspondent and failed host of The Opposition, Jordan Klepper. Of the 12 guest-hosts, CBS has engaged in seven of these puke-tastic forays.

CBS Mornings Peddles Dubious, Conflicted Poll Looking to Ban AR-15s
As part of their Monday coverage of a tragic mass shooting at an Alabama birthday party, CBS Mornings revealed the results of new a CBS News/YouGov poll that purportedly showed 62 percent of Americans were in favor of a ban on AR-15s. Those findings flew in the face of similar recent polling that showed growing opposition to a ban.
