Late Saturday night, Atlanta, Georgia was beset by the latest riot by Antifa and far-left thugs as they set a police car on fire, shot explosives at a police building, and caused property destruction. All told, six have been arrested so far and charged with domestic terrorism. And despite nearly four minutes of coverage on Sunday’s Face the Nation, CBS’s flagship morning and evening…

Author and host of the ABC true crime podcast Truth and Lies: The Informant, Dick Lehr joined Good Morning America on Saturday to discuss the case behind the podcast, a foiled bombing of Somali immigrants in Garden City, Kansas, in 2016. Not content to tell a compelling and true story of undercover law enforcement thwarting terrorist attacks, Lehr found a way to tie Donald…

ABC, NBC, and CBS all ignored round six of the Twitter Files on their Saturday morning shows. The revelation that the FBI was working with Twitter to suppress content was not nearly as interesting to them as Elon Musk’s version of Twitter suspending several accounts for sharing information about his private jet and physical location.

The Saturday editions of the network morning shows concealed round three of The Twitter Files, where it was revealed that Twitter’s decision to ban former President Trump was the culmination a process that began well before January 6. Other things that ABC’s Good Morning America want to conceal include your face as prepare for your upcoming holiday festivities during flu…

After minimal coverage Friday morning of the violent assassination attempt of New York Republican Congressman Lee Zeldin as he campaigned for governor, ABC’s World News Tonight and CBS Evening News downplayed the attack with the latter calling the weapon just a keychain. And NBC Nightly News ignored the attack altogether to focus on lost luggage at airports.

Friday’s Good Morning America had full reports commiserating over the fact that the stock market had its “worst first half of the year” in over 50 years and the cost of a Fourth of July cookout have gone through the roof, but not surprisingly, the always superficial (and factually challenged) network refused to assign blame for either and thus absolved the Biden administration of any…

With the liberal media all-in on Tuesday’s January 6 Committee hearing featuring former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson, it wasn’t a surprise Wednesday morning to see the “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC downplay the strong pushback from the Secret Service regarding Hutchinson’s tall tale that President Trump assaulted a Secret Service agent and tried to seize the steering wheel…

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 (…

The network evening news in April rediscovered Joe Biden’s crisis on the southern border, offering more coverage than they had in the previous five months combined. And all it took for this was a record-smashing high for border crossings, the most in Department of Homeland Security history. In April, there were 234,088, topping the record high from March of 2022, 221,303.

On Thursday the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) reported that the United States’ Gross Domestic Product contracted 1.4 percent in the first quarter of 2022, a full 2.4 percent off from economists' expectations. 

The network newscasts are still burying the heroic, tragic story of Bishop E. Evans of Arlington Texas. He jumped in the Rio Grande River on Friday to save two migrants who were drowning, losing his life in the process. NBC finally covered the story on Tuesday night, but just for a scant 12 seconds. CBS STILL hasn’t discussed his sacrifice. 

Despite nearly a week of stoking fear about COVID-19 after Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle struck down the CDC’s mask mandate on airplanes and public transit, Friday’s CBS Mornings ignored the far-left City of Philadelphia axing the mask mandate that it reinstated on Monday. CBS’s omission didn’t stop ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today from covering it with the…

The Biden administration, desperate to hide the exploding crisis at the border, dumped the March crossing numbers late on Good Friday of Easter weekend. The dutiful drones on the network evening newscasts did their part in burying the bad news. 

After two hundred and sixty-one days of ignoring Hunter Biden’s mounting scandals and corrupt business activities, the evening network newscasts finally reported on President Biden’s corrupt son. Yet despite the rediscovery, ABC’s World News Tonight decided to defend Hunter, while NBC Nightly News made the segment about former President Trump requesting Russian President…
