60 Minutes

The media made their fair share of nasty comments and skewed remarks in 2021, but there were also instances where reporters (or entire networks) deliberately misled their audiences.

So-called experts advising Big Tech are experiencing a crisis of credibility as the once-condemned laboratory leak theory rises in popularity.

In the latest case of liberal-on-liberal friendly fire, CBS News and 60 Minutes found itself under the gun Sunday and Monday for the crime of engaging in actual, balanced journalism with longtime correspondent Lesley Stahl reporting on transgender people and how some who’ve changed their gender have had second thoughts.

Last week, ex-police officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. The evidence on the murder charges was weak; the evidence on manslaughter was significantly stronger. Still, the jury took only 10 hours and zero questions to come to its conclusion: guilty on all counts. In and of itself, the Chauvin case never should have been…

CBS News senior White House and political correspondent Ed O’Keefe swooned how more than 100 of “the nation’s top corporate leaders met virtually on Saturday to discuss ways for companies” to fight “restrictive” voting laws across the country. The “corporate leaders” involved included the CEO of the parent company that oversees O’Keefe’s own news organization.

CBS is standing by their malicious hit piece on Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. On yesterday’s 60 Minutes, reporter Sharyn Alfonsi responded to the heavy criticism with an unapologetic update.

On Tuesday morning, Fox News was doing its part to expose the dishonesty of the liberal media as Fox & Friends informed viewers of CBS portraying Florida Governor Ron DeSantis as corrupt while completely ignoring the facts and the word of two prominent Democrats that proved the CBS hit piece was unfounded.

Tireless in their efforts to tarnish Republican Ron DeSantis, CBS ran a malicious and deceptive hit piece against the Florida governor on Sunday night’s 60 Minutes.

After CBS’s 60 Minutes aired a lengthy glowing profile back in October of the anti-Trump group of ex-Republican grifters know as The Lincoln Project, on Sunday, the broadcast only managed a 47-second “update” informing viewers that the organization was now plagued by scandal, including co-founder John Weaver being accused of sexual harassment by multiple men.

Liberal billionaire Bill Gates made a shocking confession that made his climate change activism reek of hypocrisy.

On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough says that "AOC has never actually threatened to kill a Republican." He does so in contrasting her with Marjorie Taylor Greene, who liked a tweet calling for the assassination of Nancy Pelosi, and described strategies leading to the hanging of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. 

Where was this 60 Minutes before the 2020 presidential election? On Sunday, co-host Lesley Stahl grilled Nancy Pelosi, telling the House Speaker that she has no “mandate” on policy and hitting the Democrat for not being a compromiser with Republicans. Stahl even brought up Pelosi’s obstruction of the COVID release bill.

On Morning Joe, playing off Barack Obama's 60 Minutes interview in which he blamed social media in part for "truth decay," Mika and The Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg bemoaned social media's supposedly insufficient censoring of conservatives. Mika Brzezinski and Goldberg fretted that conservatives being left "unchecked" leads to " serious problems."

Monday on The View, the hosts spent time raging at Republicans and President Trump, whom they exclusively blamed for a global pandemic, before going on to fall head over heels for President Obama being interviewed by CBS on Sunday.
