CBS Evening News

The anniversary of the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump is upon us and with it, news of the actions taken by the Secret Service after reviewing the many breakdowns that led to the current President of the United States almost getting gunned down in Butler, Pennsylvania. This is without a doubt a story of enormous national import, and yet, NBC News has not seen fit to cover it…

For its longform Eye on America  segment, the CBS Evening News delivered a visually beautiful report on President Trump’s executive order on logging- backdropped by lush Oregon forests. The report featured a heavy dose of advocacy against logging in national forests. But the report was undercut by an earlier item that underscores why such forest clearing is needed in the…

As the legacy media continue to demonstrate, their role in helping to cover President Joe Biden’s physical, mental and cognitive decline from the American public is a decidedly uncomfortable matter. Case in point: CBS and ABC omitting from their newscasts that Biden’s doctor, when asked about that very real and evident decline, took the Fifth before the House Oversight Committee.

The recent attack on a Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas drew wide coverage across the broadcast dial. However, a more troubling attack has gone uncovered except for a brief on the CBS Evening News.

The legacy media have had a brutal past couple of weeks, and it shows. But with the newly-inaugurated Florida immigration detention center officially known as Alligator Alcatraz now fully operational, the legacies have resorted to pettiness, refusing to address the facility by name.

Tonight’s CBS Evening News offerings presented viewers with an amazing split screen as it fell upon John Dickerson to deliver the news that Paramount Global entered into a settlement agreement that would terminate the lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump.

With the tax and spending bill known as the “One Big, Beautiful Bill” passing the Senate, it appears that the legacy media’s evening newscasts mostly chose to offer up a rehash of their coverage ahead of the Senate vote. Critical in spots and argumentative in others, and in stark contrast with coverage garnered by big legislation secured for the Biden administration.

On Monday, CBS Evening News highlighted a report on immigration in California that’s sole purpose was to generate fear of Immigration and Customs Enforcement not just in illegal immigrants, but in all Hispanic-Americans. Correspondent Adam Yamaguchi, highlighting the unwarranted fear that some citizens were feeling that they could be deported, tried his best to reaffirm those fears by…

CBS Evening News closed out June, on Monday, by decrying federal budget cuts eliminating two Department of Agriculture food programs totally $1 billion. The report, delivered by correspondent Meg Oliver, dismissed the fact that they were both temporary COVID-era programs. Yet, she had the audacity to lament that “farmers and frontline workers [were left] to pick up the pieces while…

The Legacy Media took turns taking potshots at the One Big, Beautiful Bill in their network evening newscasts. This is in stark contrast to how large Biden-era legislation was covered and serves to remind us that if it weren’t for double standards, there’d be none at all.

CBS sent foreign correspondent Imtiaz Tyab to Iran for a Friday report on Evening News that was ostensibly about getting Iranian reactions to the recent war with Israel but in reality was just an uncritical regurgitation of regime propaganda.

If a California elected official calls for gang violence against federal agents tasked with enforcing immigration law but it wasn’t reported on the legacy network newscasts, did it really happen? This seems to be the stance over at the ABC, CBS, and NBC evening newscasts with regard to the vice mayor of Cudahy, California’s call to ganbanger insurrection.

On Thursday, CBS showed some admirable news judgment on CBS Mornings and the CBS Evening News by choosing to inform viewers about a ticking fiscal bomb many fiscal hawks have been warning about for decades, which is Social Security essentially going broke in the next decade. Even though it’s being talked about as a Republican is in the White House, it’s still worth giving…

With the current Supreme Court term winding down there remain several big opinions on the docket, including on whether district courts will continue to be able to issue national injunctions. One of those opinions came down today, allowing states to ban Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood.
