NBC’s reporting on protecting children from harmful content was undermined by an enormous omission: Melania Trump’s visit to Capitol Hill to advocate for children exposed to online exploitation. 

The Associated Press released a video aiming to demonstrate Ukrainian support for President Zelensky over Trump after their contentious White House meeting. However, the video, featuring only two Ukrainian interviewees, was criticized and mocked for its inadequate representation. Viewers expressed skepticism, noting the limited sample size and questioning AP's attempt to portray…

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt appeared Sunday on the Fox News Channel’s MediaBuzz and debated host Howard Kurtz on a slew of subjects over two segments, including the Associated Press hubbub over its ban from the press pool (the smaller, rotating group of journalists that follow the President to smaller events and on Air Force One) and the press shop taking over the…

On Sunday's This Week, host George Stephanopoulos brought on Associated Press Executive Editor Julie Pace to discuss Ukraine, and  the AP being kept out of the White House press pool because they're #Resistance media. They picked the weird battle of refusing to write "Gulf of America" because they hate President Trump that much. Pace lied: "We're a global, independent, non-partisan…

Tuesday’s PBS News Hour featured guest Brian Stelter, editor of CNN’s Reliable Sources newsletter (and reliable white knight for the mainstream media) to discuss the “chilling effect” of the Trump Administration blocking the Associated Press from the White House pool of reporters.

On Tuesday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sent shockwaves down the paper-thin spines of the White House press corps as she declared the end of the press pool as we know it and that the administration, not the smarmy White House Correspondents Association (WHCA) would determine the rotation of reporters who’d accompany the President in tighter confines, such as the Oval…

On Friday, the Associated Press (AP) sued three Trump White House officials – Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Deputy Chief of Staff Taylor Budowich, and Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt – alleging they violated the First Amendment (and somehow the Fourth Amendment too) by using their stance on the Gulf of America to deprive the AP of their seemingly God-given right to participate in a small,…

Former NBC and MSNBC political referee (self-described) Chuck Todd resurfaced on The Bulwark’s podcast with his former MSNBC colleague Sam Stein, on Wednesday. Together, they reminisced about covering the White House and lamented the “collective weakness” of the current press pool in not standing up for the Associated Press during their feud with the Trump administration over not using “Gulf…

In an appearance on Wednesday’s CNN Newsroom and in his so-called “Reliable Sources” Newsletter, liberal media janitor Brian Stelter kvetched about President Trump “embracing the role of word police” for barring the Associated Press from official White House events over their refusal to call it the Gulf of America. Meanwhile, Stelter had backed the Biden administration’s attempt to…

In an lengthy interview with Elon Musk that aired Tuesday on the Fox News Channel with Sean Hannity (and taped late last week), President Trump unsurprisingly found time to lambaste the “bad,” “dangerous,” “horrible” liberal media as he and Musk have stood up the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to shrink and tame the leviathan that is the federal government.

PBS’s regular Monday political conclave with Cook Political Report’s Amy Walter and NPR White House reporter Tamara Keith ran hotter than usual, with concerns about President Trump’s purported assault on the First Amendment fanning the fear flames, leading the panel to make ridiculous defenses of the non-partisan (!) Associated Press.

It's strange to see AP and the White House battling over the Gulf of America, but Axios reports there's a broader message. "This is about AP weaponizing language through their Stylebook to push a partisan worldview." 

Wallace White at the Daily Caller reported it isn't just Politico that's a substantial beneficiary of federal government support. The Associated Press -- which in recent years has offered a seriously soft touch to President Biden -- receives many millions from taxpayers

Blithely tossing aside biological reality for ideological ends, Associated Press wrote from Topeka: “Republican-led states emboldened to continue rolling back trans rights as Democrats struggle with response.” AP absolutely mangled the political controversy over “transgender rights,” and assumed with no scientific evidence that a high number of children are “trans." AP used all the LGBTQIA-…
