Column: David Brooks, Exhibit A in PBS Avoiding Real Conservatives
One of the reasons I have long inveighed against “public” TV is its tendency to avoid authentic conservative opinion. For almost 20 years now, Exhibit A has been PBS News Hour pundit David Brooks. PBS picked up David Brooks as its supposedly right-leaning Friday night opinionator in 2004, shortly after he became a New York Times columnist in 2003.

Despite Defamation Suit, MSNBC Bloviates About ‘Big and Garish Lies’
MSNBC may have taken their self-assured and self-righteous obliviousness to their own shortcomings to a whole new level of irony on Wednesday night’s episode of The 11th Hour, The show’s discussion panel railed against their perception of a trend of mass-misinformation by non-mainstream media sources, but seemed quite oblivious to very serious defamation charges pending against them…
Scott Turner’s Turn-Around Job at HUD
Scott Turner, former state legislator, NFL player and pastor from Plano, Texas, will take over as the new Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

VIDEO: Corporate Media Think Everything Is a ‘Constitutional Crisis’
Democrats and their corporate media allies like to quietly redefine political terms to suit their needs. Threats to “democracy” are really threats to the entrenched, unaccountable, left-of-center bureaucracy; “misinformation,” along with its “dis-” and “mal-” cousins, is any fact or narrative that is inconvenient for the political left; and basically anyone or anything who runs afoul of the…

ABC News Claims Trump Axing DoE to ‘Create’ a ‘Permanent Underclass’
The liberal ladies of The View had totally measured and sane reactions, during Thursday’s show, to the Trump administration announcing they were looking to ax the government bloat at Department of Education. Not really. According to ABC News co-host Sunny Hostin, President Trump want to “create” a “permanent underclass” of “cheap labor.” And using her platform at ABC News, she…
Arguing Over a Sinking Ship: New ‘CBS Evening News’ Already Troubled?
Puck’s Dylan Byers wrote Wednesday night in his latest must-read media article that the mood inside CBS News has grown even more grim as, not only are they facing a lawsuit from President Trump and an FCC investigation (and, we would add, a public and private struggle session over their far-left staffers objecting to a host’s basic decency to defend Israel), but network insiders are now…

On CNN's Sciutto-Stacked Panel, Dem Predicts 2026 Wins, Ignores Polls
Substituting for Kasie Hunt on CNN This Morning, leftist Jim Sciutto stacks the panel, balancing a Dem strategist and former Biden aide with Joe Walsh, a "Republican" who is actually a fierce Trump antagonist, someone who supported Biden in 2020 and Kamala Harris in 2024. Ignoring the polls, Dem panelist Meghan Hays predicts Democrat gains in 2026 and 2028.
FCC Chairman Brendan Carr to Probe DEI-Drenched Comcast, NBCUniversal
Trump-appointed Federal Communications Chair Brendan Carr is taking on Comcast and NBCUniversal on DEI. They might be the most aggressive DEI pusher among national media companies. It's not just a bias in their hiring, but in their "news" product.
