CBS News must have decided they haven’t suffered enough self-inflicted wounds of partisan quackery as Thursday’s CBS Mornings Plus defended diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) as not only necessary, but widely popular and doesn’t at all conflict with concerns about “merit,” and actually exists to benefit white women and military veterans.

On Wednesday’s CBS Mornings, co-host, Obama family friend, and former Democratic Party donor Gayle King tried to tie Donald Trump and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to the recent high-profile aviation accidents in 2025 and ask the CEO of Delta Airlines whether he too has concern about air safety with Trump in power. Thankfully, Delta’s Ed Bastian wasn’t having any of…

The Trump, Musk, and DOGE-deranged media, consumed with their efforts to undermine government accountability and reform as voted upon by the American people, have completely omitted from viewer consideration a critically important development across our southern border: the CIA’s no-longer-secret drone flights over Mexican cartel laboratories.

Through the first four weeks of President Donald Trump’s second term, the late night comedians have told 761 jokes about him. By contrast, in 2021, during President Joe Biden’s first four weeks in office, the late night comedians told a total of 88 jokes about the new chief executive, according to an MRC study.

Actor George Clooney traveled over to CBS and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Tuesday to promote the stage adaptation of his 2005 movie Good Night, and Good Luck about Edward R. Murrow and McCarthyism. With modern-day politics an obvious backdrop, Clooney urged journalists to be on the “right side of history” even if it “is not fun at the moment.”

HBO’s John Oliver kicked off the 2025 season of Last Week Tonight on Sunday by recapping the first four weeks of Donald Trump’s return to the White House that included a bit on Elon Musk and DOGE. Oliver would label Musk as “one of the worst white guys South Africa has ever produced” while ignoring questions about whether South Africa really needs or deserves aid. On Monday, Oliver…

It was a deeply weird Sunday at CBS. Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan argued that free speech led to the Holocaust, as if the Nazis allowed free speech. Then 60 Minutes promoted German prosecutors fining and jailing people for "hate speech" on social media. CBS likes a little "German order" on the internet. Jorge Bonilla joins the show to ponder the CBS mysteries.

Vice President JD Vance denounced German censorship after a major legacy media player acted as an apologist for the authoritarian practices in the European country. 

For CBS, Sunday marked a day for the ages. Along with Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan having engaged in a new act of political masochism and shamelessly peddled a pants-on-fire lie that free speech caused the Holocaust, 60 Minutes not only embraced Germany’s criminalizing of dissent as a model, but tried to convince the populous to commiserate with government workers in…

It is not coincidental that mere days after Vice President JD Vance went into the Munich Security Conference and denounced European censorship regimes, CBS’s 60 Minutes would air a report extolling the virtues of German censorship. The report filed by correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi makes sure to highlight prosecutors who go after memeposters as defenders of civility.

CBS’s Margaret Brennan continues on a tour-de-force of galaxy brained takes that ultimately cause her to get smacked down by her conservative interlocutor. The latest such instance involves her assertion that the Holocaust was caused by (weaponized) free speech, which was promptly and thoroughly rebuffed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Three days after CBS Mornings Plus shacked up with the rest of the liberal media’s manufactured narrative about the country either in the midst of or about to enter “a constitutional crisis,” CBS’s longtime Supreme Court correspondent Jan Crawford showed up on Friday’s show to burst the bubble of liberals that we are not, in fact, in a state of chaos.

Democrats and their corporate media allies like to quietly redefine political terms to suit their needs. Threats to “democracy” are really threats to the entrenched, unaccountable, left-of-center bureaucracy; “misinformation,” along with its “dis-” and “mal-” cousins, is any fact or narrative that is inconvenient for the political left; and basically anyone or anything who runs afoul of the…

Puck’s Dylan Byers wrote Wednesday night in his latest must-read media article that the mood inside CBS News has grown even more grim as, not only are they facing a lawsuit from President Trump and an FCC investigation (and, we would add, a public and private struggle session over their far-left staffers objecting to a host’s basic decency to defend Israel), but network insiders are now…
