Tuesday marked the first White House press briefing of 2023 and, in her ninth month as press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre continued to stammer and stonewall her way through even the most benign questions. Meanwhile, Fox’s Peter Doocy kept up the heat by wondering whether anyone in the White House could say with a straight face whether “the southern border is secure” and if President Biden…

On Friday morning following President Biden’s first state dinner the night prior, CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today were load for bear to gush over the event starring French President Emmanuel Macron as filled with “glitz and glamor,” “lots of big names,” and even scandal-plagued Hunter Biden. Moments after touting her friend and former President Barack Obama’s campaign stop in…

The three broadcast morning shows on Friday collectively donated four and a half minutes to President Biden’s empty vow to “get rid of assault weapons,” even though all of the correspondents agreed it would be “an incredible uphill battle” at best.

After Bloomberg’s Jenny Leonard asked President Biden on Wednesday afternoon about whether he thinks Twitter boss Elon Musk is a national security threat, CBS’s Weijia Jiang and Fox’s David Spunt followed up during Thursday’s White House press briefing and whether Biden actually meant that and how that’d square with his campaign promise to have an independent Justice Department (DOJ).

For yet another day, the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC used their Thursday morning news shows to fluff the White House up in their hapless attempt (which some argue is purposeful) to save their party’s midterm prospects and lower gas prices through a puny release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). ABC’s Good Morning America again played the starring role, offering praise…

Hours before President Biden’s formal announcement that he’s releasing a puny 15 million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), the major broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC heralded this nonsensical effort to take oil from a collection meant for serious emergencies and use it to try and rescue Biden and his party’s chances in the midterm elections.

A day after PBS’s Lisa DeJardins asked White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki for comment on the latest Hunter Biden finding by the New York Post, Fox’s Jacqui Heinrich came into Tuesday’s briefing with a question that’ll be worth revisiting as the Biden probe in Delaware moves along as she wanted to know whether President Joe Biden still stands by his claims that he never discussed…

The “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC decided Friday afternoon that they had to up their game for the White House’s celebration of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation, waxing poetic about the “extraordinary” “party” for Jackson, who exudes “excellence” in the face of “persistent sexism,” “racism,” and “attacks” from Republicans and those who haven’t joined in “this moment of…

As was the case on ABC and NBC, CBS flaunted its liberal leanings and gush Thursday for incoming Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson following her Senate confirmation vote, couching their admiration in her being someone to revere beyond ideology (given her gender and skin color) while admonishing Republicans for having “wasted” her confirmation hearings and suggested senators do “soul-…

Tuesday during a late-afternoon Psaki Show, Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy questioned the White House press secretary over calls for Attorney General Merrick Garland to appoint a special counsel to give full independence from the Biden White House to investigate First Son Hunter Biden and his life of corruption. Predictably, Psaki wanted nothing to do with this.

Immediately following President Biden’s announcement late Tuesday morning that the U.S. would finally ban Russian oil over the ongoing war in Ukraine, CBS went to work spewing White House propaganda that the administration’s left-wing environmental agenda was “not hurting oil production in this country.” Instead, the network claimed there were “no good options” other than turning to other…

Wednesday’s White House press briefing wasn’t smooth sailing for Press Secretary Jen Psaki and deputy national security adviser Daleep Singh with tough questions ahead of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, so it was only natural they came back Thursday and faced  hardballs on Biden’s messaging flip-flop on use of sanctions and the refusal to apply them at all to Russian energy industry (perhaps its…

With Russia on the brink of a full-blown war, and the Biden administration’s newly imposed sanctions causing Republicans in Congress to claim they’re too little too late, ABC World News Tonight quickly sought to hype the Biden administration’s sanctions and completely ignore any Republicans who beg to differ.

All three networks on Monday night and Tuesday morning offered sympathy for Joe Biden calling Fox News reporter Peter Doocy a “stupid son of a bitch.” CBS explained, as though this were a new discovery now that Democrats are in charge, “it’s not easy being President.” ABC and NBC both stressed that Biden was simply “frustrated” by other reporters asking off-topic questions.
