Here’s the Worst Moments From CBS’s Syrupy Celebration of Oprah/Walz

August 22nd, 2024 7:56 PM

Thursday’s CBS Mornings spent nearly its entire two hours of run time (with commercials) celebrating the previous day’s proceedings at the Democratic National Convention as if they have a personal stake in ensuring Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) win in November. Not only that, but the show felt the need to ebulliently hold up the various speakers at the DNC,…

Boring IS Propaganda: CBS, NBC Spoonfeed Lame Recaps on DNC Opening

August 20th, 2024 6:26 PM

Instead of sharing any number of the partisan and false statements from President Biden’s speech (which our friends at National Review, RedState, and Townhall ably took on) or any of the other speakers, Tuesday’s CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today attempted to lull viewers not so much with puffball, almost erotic adulation of the Democrats that we saw on ABC’s Good Morning…

August 20th, 2024 5:14 PM

Amid the boringly promotional coverage masquerading as objective recaps on night one of the Democratic National Convention, Tuesday’s CBS Mornings delivered one example of a broadcast network pressing Democrats.

The Saturday morning editions of the network morning shows took different approaches to Vice President Kamala Harris’s radical proposal to install price controls on food.

August 16th, 2024 12:12 PM

While the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC have continued to treat Vice President Kamala Harris to North Korean-like fawning coverage by excusing her lack of policy specifics (and zero criticisms of the ones she’s offered) and sneering attacks on former President Trump, they’ve chosen to leave behind substantive scandals about Harris and her running mate, far-left Governor Tim Walz (D-MN).…

MELTDOWN: ABC Loses Its Noodle Over Elon Musk’s Donald Trump Interview

August 13th, 2024 6:17 PM

On Tuesday, ABC’s Good Morning America was somewhere between apoplectic and forlorn over former President Trump’s two-hour-long interview with X owner and entrepreneur Elon Musk on everything from artificial intelligence to the assassination attempt on Trump’s life to the economy to immigration to North Korea. Despite its depth, length, and even the number of topics, ABC kvetched that…

RUNNING SCARED: Nets Skip Vance Beatdowns, Cheer Kamala-mentum

August 12th, 2024 6:11 PM

On Monday morning, the broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC ran scared and not only downplayed 2024 GOP vice presidential candidate JD Vance’s appearance on three of the Sunday morning political shows (ABC, CBS, and CNN), but completely omitted clips of Vance completely owning the liberal hosts. Instead, they played up Vice President Kamala Harris as having “dramatically” “gain[ed] momentum…

Nets Gaslight Viewers, Use Kamala Avoiding Questions to...Bash Trump?

In the wake of Kamala Harris selecting Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to be her running mate, CBS Mornings hosted far left progressive Rep.
