CBS Brushes Off El-Sayed Muslim Brotherhood Ties, NBC Demands Answers

PBS’s Michel Martin welcomed the father-daughter duo of Director David Greaves and Producer Liana Greaves to Friday’s edition of Amanpour and Company to promote their new documentary, Once Upon a Time in Harlem, about the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s.

After Her Brief Briefing, Zacharia Faced the Sean Hannity Test
When new White House press secretary Katie Zacharia appeared on Hannity on Thursday night, most would have expected a sympathetic session. Instead, Sean Hannity firmly questioned her like it was a test, a second briefing opportunity. It became the beginning of the end.
Pompous Pelley Appears, Claims Weiss Wants to ‘Destroy’ 60 Minutes
Fired longtime 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley recently appeared at an event to reminisce about his time at CBS and his infamous crashout and subsequent firing from CBS’s Sunday night magazine show.

NBC Frames Trump as Misogynist After Zacharia Press Sec Ouster
After Katie Zacharia left her role as White House Press Secretary on Friday, just a week after taking the job, all the evening network newscasts covered the removal.

NY Times Spreads Becerra's Repeated 'Son of Immigrants' Lie on Page 1
We've noted the California Democrat Xavier Becerra is lying repeatedly about his life story, claiming his father came to America in his 20s with $12 in his pocket. But an obituary said his father was born in Sacramento. In a front-page puff piece, The New York Times twice spread this "son of immigrants" line that's half-wrong.
'Long' Time: PBS News Hour Hid Its Inflation Expert During Biden Era
PBS joined the other networks in negatively spinning the official inflation numbers, which were comparatively tame compared to inflation during the Biden years.

Co-anchor Geoff Bennett led the show by…
Scarborough Hypes 'Absolutely Dreadful' 'Really Bad News' for Trump
Whether or not you believe in “karma is a bish,” or “tempting the fates,” it’s undeniable that Joe Scarborough went on an unseemly riff on Thursday’s Morning Joe, gloating over what he saw as various woes facing Trump and the Republicans at the midterms. The screencap shows him holding up one of the headlines he described as “bad news” for Trump. Joe stopped just short of rubbing his…
CBS Blames U.S. for Collapse of Cuba’s ‘Once-Renowned’ Health Care
Even though ABC pulled the exact same stunt in May, CBS Mornings chose Friday to take the hand of the Cuban communists for a hand-holding tour under the thumb of a U.S. oil blockade, leading to massive blackouts and a drain of basic necessities. The supposedly right-wing CBS lamented the state of affairs, even complaining the Trump administration’s policies have caused Cuba’s “once-…
The Flip-Flopping Sensibilities of The View’s Sara Haines
In theory, each cast member of ABC’s The View is supposed to bring a unique perspective and experience to the table to cultivate a wide variety of opinions. We all know that’s a load of bunk given how homogeneous their political views are. The most insidious among them is Sara Haines, the purported “independent” voter who exclusively votes Democratic. And just like any party sycophant…
BREAKING: Katie Zacharia Is Out as White House Press Secretary
A week after she was named to the position, multiple reports said Friday afternoon that conservative commentator Katie Zacharia was out as press secretary, capping a stunning week in one of the highest-stress positions in Washington.
