CBS Mornings

According to CBS and NBC, here’s what matters: Ron DeSantis “scolding” teens for wearing masks. What doesn’t matter? Issues like the many Hunter Biden scandals, the crisis at the border and critical race theory being taught in schools. 

Well, now they tell you. The network morning shows on Monday all admitted that ramping up oil production in the wake of the war in Ukraine will “take some time.” There was no mention of the Biden administration’s war on energy independence. And NBC’s Today mentioned buying an electric car instead to save money on gas.

Oh, so NOW they care about abortion? This week, there were several big examples of Democratic extremism on abortion. Yet, the networks all ignored them. But on Friday, CBS and NBC both covered Florida passing a 15 week ban on abortion, fretting about it being too severe. 

Early Friday, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin’s stooges in parliament (known as the Duma) passed a law criminalizing accurate reporting about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine with a possible sentence of 15 years in jail. When it came to this actual and genuine attack on free, independent journalism, NBC’s Today omitted it from their Friday morning show.

Reacting Wednesday to President Biden’s State of the Union address from the night prior, the broadcast network mornings newscasts on ABC, CBS, and NBC largely decided to play White House stenographers in touting Biden’s “call[s] for unity” and focus “on common ground and not...partisanship.” It resulted, one network said, in cheers that were akin to American unity after 9/11.

During interviews with Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday, both CBS Mornings and ABC’s Good Morning America questioned the Democrat from the left while discussing President Biden’s State of the Union address. CBS’s Gayle King worried about whether “voting rights” legislation was still a top priority for the administration while ABC’s George Stephanopoulos hoped Biden…

The networks and CNN on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning renewed their obsession with Joe Manchin, fretting over how “weird” it was that the moderate Democrat sat with Republicans at the State of the Union. Barely hiding her annoyance, CBS Mornings co-host Gayle King on Wednesday recounted, “He [Biden] was talking about that unity agenda. We saw Senator Manchin sitting with…

While interviewing Democratic Senator and Judiciary Committee member Chris Coons on Monday, the hosts of CBS Mornings urged for quick confirmation of President Biden’s Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson and saw no reason for any “delay at all when it comes to her background.” In addition, the broadcast fondly recalled how the person Jackson was replacing, liberal Justice…

On the Saturday edition of Today on NBC, political contributor and PBS Washington Week host Yamiche Alcindor reacted to the news of Ketanji Brown Jackson’s nomination to the Supreme Court with excitement that Democratic activists will have another voice on the Court, but lamented that her ability to actually bring change is limited.

The network newscasts on Thursday morning parroted Biden talking points when it comes to the President’s handling of the escalating Ukranian crisis. None of them questioned Joe Biden’s control of a situation that seems to be spiraling out of control. Instead, NBC assured Americans that the Democrat is “sensitive” to ramifications like sky high gas prices. 

Conservative influencers on Twitter decimated CBS News for attempting to gaslight Americans into believing that skyrocketing U.S. inflation is a result of the ongoing geopolitical crisis in Ukraine.

In the morning after Russian President Vladimir Putin all but annexed two Ukrainian provinces, the major broadcast network newscasts largely chose Tuesday to absolve President Biden and his team for Putin feeling emboldened to take another step in what he views as reclaiming the old Russian empire.

On Wednesday’s CBS Mornings and Thursday’s NBC Today show, hosts fretted over mask mandates being lifted across the country as COVID numbers sharply decline. Jittery anchors feared that the easing of pandemic restrictions “triggers” some people and even suggested they themselves might “wear a mask forever now” in certain settings, like public transportation.

Late Tuesday night, over 70 percent of voters in dark navy blue San Francisco showed even they have a limit for woke politics as they removed three members of the city’s Board of Education as a reaction to their lengthy school closures, choosing to spend time renaming schools, and showing an aversion to the needs of the children they serve. Of course, none of this was of interest to the major…
