After the Democratic Mayor of New York City was hit with a $5 million sexual assault suit, ABC and CBS hid Eric Adams’ party identification in their Thursday evening and Friday morning coverage. NBC failed to cover the story at all.

‘Tis the season to be thankful. If you’re President Joe Biden, you’re extra thankful for a press corps that insists on giving you cover by reporting on anything and everything EXCEPT the corrupt dealings between his family and Burisma, 166 days and counting since the scandal broke.

When covering the news, it is usually a steady stream of doom and gloom. But on occasion, there are stories that brighten one’s day, especially in today’s polarized news environment. One such story: ABC World News Tonight’s feature on National Adoption Month. 

In January 2023, Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Robert Hur, a former Justice Department official, to conduct an inquiry into President Biden’s alleged mishandling of classified documents. Despite the high-profile nature of the case, Hur’s investigation has gone almost entirely unnoticed by broadcast networks ABC, CBS, and NBC, who have spent less than five minutes on the matter…

Even though polls show Joe Biden's age is the top threat to the President's re-election next year, ABC, CBS and NBC all but ignored Biden's 81st birthday on Monday.

Few politicians say things that immortalize their words. Abraham Lincoln was a notable exception. The 16th president’s comment about fooling voters resonates today: “ You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time.” That wise statement is becoming increasingly evident as we head into the 2024…

As I’ve stated many times, the Latinx Grievance Industrial Complex is up in arms over the perceived (and, perhaps, imagined) loss of air supremacy on one of its cornerstone institutions- Univision. Which is how we end up with Ana Navarro, on The View, DEMANDING to know how and why this is happening.

San Francisco famously underwent a thorough cleanup prior to the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation summit (APEC) last week, which was kept off of the network evening newscasts. With the APEC summit behind us, it’s time for San Francisco Mayor London Breed to get a little PR cleanup of her own, a task which was handled by ABC correspondent Martha Raddatz.

Six years ago, the networks had a chance to properly report on Senator Robert Menendez’s (D-NJ) alleged corruption during an earlier federal trial, and they blew it. NewsBusters documented how ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN buried the embarrassing (for Democrats) trial detailing how Menendez accepted extravagant gifts and travel, in exchange for federal favors.

Having been off-the-air from covering the Israel-Hamas war for roughly three weeks, CBS foreign correspondent Imtiaz Tyab resurfaced to lead off Friday’s CBS Mornings and, as he had from the onset of the war, played an incredibly reliable role of tool for the terrorist organization trashing Israel’s response to Hamas’s October 7 animalism.

With former teacher Joy Behar moderating Friday’s episode of The View, the ABC hosts teamed up with President Biden’s Education secretary, Miguel Cardona to blast the idea that states should have the right to determine what their education standards should be and what’s in their curriculums. They also bemoaned that the Supreme Court had struck down discriminatory affirmative action…

On Tuesday, Texas lawmakers passed a bill which, if enacted, would permit state officials to arrest and deport illegal aliens. The media, aghast at the idea of anyone being deported ever for any reason, swiftly condemned the bill for “causing a lot of fear in the migrant community.”

You’ll be absolutely not shocked to discover that none of the major three network evening newscasts found the time to report news of a non-prosecution, to wit: the non-prosecution of President Joe Biden or any of his staff in the classified documents case under investigation by Special Counsel Robert Hur.

The death of Paul Kessler, killed for holding a pro-Israel sign on a Los Angeles street corner, has been the subject of sparse, weirdly omissive media coverage, of which we’ve taken note here at the MRC. The announcement of an arrest in the matter is no exception, as it drew sparse coverage on one major network newscast and none at all on the others.
