CBS Hails Rebuke Of Crime Crackdown, Ignores Murder Suspects Arrested
Like ABC and NBC, CBS’s Friday evening and Saturday morning newscasts ignored the arrest of multiple juveniles in Washington, D.C. for the murder of congressional intern Eric Tarpinian-Jachym. Unlike ABC and NBC, CBS Saturday Morning’s omission bias was made worse by the fact that Justice Correspondent Scott MacFarlane chose to hype a magistrate judge’s rebuke of the Trump…

Called to the Principal’s Office: CBS to Change Sunday Show Interviews
On Friday, CBS News all but admitted they’ve lost the public’s trust when they admitted they would no longer be chopping down (read: engaging in funny business with) taped interviews — such as one Sunday with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem — for their Sunday morning political talk show, Face the Nation, instead either airing them live or live to tape.

NPR CEO Maher Tells Colbert Public Radio Needed To Protect Democracy
CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed NPR CEO Katherine Maher to Thursday’s taping of The Late Show for a grieving session on the latter being defunded. According to Maher, the fate of democracy depends on NPR, and only people who seek to divide and pit Americans against each other could possibly support defunding it.

Meltdowns Incoming: CBS News Close to Buying Bari Weiss’s Free Press
Puck’s Dylan Byers dropped the bombshell Wednesday night that the rumored deal was “on the 1-yard-line” for CBS News’s parent company SkyDance to acquire former New York Times writer Bari Weiss’s indefatigable site The Free Press and grant Weiss a senior role inside CBS News.

'F*** You': Colbert Rants At Trump For Citing Chicago's Murder Problem
CBS’s Stephen Colbert had an unconvincing rebuttal on Wednesday to President Trump’s recent Truth Social posts that portrayed Chicago as a crime-ridden and dangerous city. Colbert’s three-part response involved telling Trump “[bleep] you,” repeating some false statistics, and saying Chicago can’t be that bad because The Late Show traveled there in the summer of 2024 and came back…

CBS News Guest, Covid TV Mainstay Downplays Screw-Ups to Trash RFK
Appearing on Wednesday’s CBS Mornings and CBS Mornings Plus, infectious disease expert and Covid-19 pandemic TV mainstay Dr. Michael Osterholm stopped by to hawk his new book The Big One and, despite the best efforts of the CBS co-hosts to have Osterholm answer for the public health community’s failures during Covid that caused their credibility to crater, Osterholm…

Colbert Has to Stop Audience From Booing That Trump Is Alive
If you are a normal person, you might have missed that over the Labor Day weekend, left-wing portions of the internet were running wild with rumors that President Trump had died. Of course, these rumors were false, but on Tuesday, CBS’s Stephen Colbert still had to stop The Late Show audience from booing that fact.

NewsBusters Podcast: Did CBS Think We’d Miss Their New Hatchet Job?
NewsBusters Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro and I were stunned by Sunday’s Face the Nation in which the show made a baffling decision to deceptively remove a key portion of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s answer about the alleged criminal record of illegal immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia. As our Bill D’Agostino wrote, this was part of a pattern of behavior from CBS News,…

Five Times CBS Was Caught Deceptively Editing Interviews
Yet again, the propagandists at CBS have found themselves in the midst of another deceptive editing scandal. On Sunday, the network was caught editing out the substantive portion of one of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s responses to a question on Face the Nation. But this incident is just the latest in CBS’s lengthy record of journalistic malfeasance. Let’s look back at some of the worst…

CBS Dresses Up Lefty Blog Claiming Trump Is Killing the American Dream
Despite tough questions from fill-in co-hosts Kelly O’Grady and Ed O’Keefe, Monday’s CBS Mornings Plus chose to dedicate the “By the Way” segment — a block meant to do a deeper dive on one of the major headlines but often becomes a free block for liberal narratives — to a supposedly viral guest column from a rural Virginia factory worker lamenting the rise in cost of living and the…

ABC, CBS, NBC Boast About China’s Military Parade Flexing Against U.S.
The liberal media of today was still that same media that bashed America’s troops and supported our enemies during Vietnam. There was an updated version of that mentality visible during the Tuesday morning newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC when all three of them hyped China’s military parade marking the end of WWII; when, just a few months ago, they all condemned the U.S.’s military parade…

CAUGHT COOKING AGAIN: CBS Doctors Noem Response to ‘Maryland Dad’
CBS News is once again at the center of a self-inflicted editorial practices firestorm, after excising significant portions of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s response to a question regarding “Maryland Dad” Kilmar Abrego García. CBS’s latest cooked interview left a recitation of the allegations against Abrego García on the cutting room floor.

CBS’s Ed O’Keefe Enables J.B. Pritzker’s Election Denialist Conspiracy
During an interview broadcast on CBS’s Face the Nation, Senior White House correspondent Ed O’Keefe sat by as Democrat Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker uttered the wildest conspiracy theories about rigged and possibly cancelled elections in the United States. Unfortunately, he does so with no pushback.

CBS News Pushes for Return of the 1994 ‘Federal Assault Weapons Ban’
Despite mass shootings being on the decline in 2025 (and the last couple of years), CBS Evening News Plus (on the network’s streaming service), dedicated an interview segment to pushing for the return of the 1994 Federal Assault Weapons Ban. They highlighted a study from Northwestern University that claimed that if the ban was still in place, then it would see “a significant reduction…
