Tribunal: China Committing Genocide, Only NBC Deems Newsworthy

On Thursday, an international tribunal investigating claims of genocide against Uyghur Muslims in China confirmed to the world that such acts were indeed happening. But of the big three networks, it was only Olympics broadcaster NBC who dared to share the report with their viewers, a risky move considering the Beijing Winter Olympics was coming up.

Latino Nets Push California Move to Become Abortion Sanctuary

This week, the national Hispanic networks made a point to let their (mostly conservative) audiences know just how fantastic the prospect of California becoming the nation's abortion sanctuary would be, especially as poor Latinas in, say, Texas, wouldn't have the money to pay for a 26-week abortion they can't get in their state.

NYT Avoids Radical Posture of Biden Nominee, Hints at GOP McCarthyism

Even in defeat, the New York Times coverage of the Biden Administration’s nomination of Saule Omorova for Comptroller of the Currency (which charters, regulates, and supervises national banks) whitewashed the nominee’s radicalism. Her admiration of aspects of her native land, the totalitarian USSR, and her ideas about federalizing bank accounts were virtually ignored in the Times…

EMBARRASSED: Why Has GMA Gone 665 Days Since Covering Jussie Smollett?

The Jussie Smollett hoax trial went to the jury on Wednesday, but you wouldn’t know it on Good Morning America. Since the start of the trial, the ABC show has offered ZERO coverage of the claims that the actor lied about a MAGA mob assaulting him. It seems as though GMA’s reporters and hosts are embarrassed of their past credulous, fawning interview with Smollett.

Editor’s Pick: CNSNews on Americans Seeing Border ‘Crisis’

On Thursday, CNSNews Blog Editor Craig Bannister reported on a new poll that left-wing media would prefer to ignore, showing that “By wide margins, U.S. voters say there is a crisis at the U.S. southern border and that building a border wall would be an effective method of stopping it...” The leftist media barely even cover the border crisis, let alone admit that such a large majority of…
