With no one from Fox News in the White House Briefing Room, it fell to others on Thursday to pick up the slack. Along the way, Press Secretary Jen Psaki engaged in quite the Freudian slip that there is indeed a “crisis on the border,” Real Clear Politics’s Philip Wegmann asked tough questions on masks and religious freedom, and one reporter grossly tied attacks on Asian Americans to…

It had been days since the evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC delivered any kind of substantive follow-up to Democratic New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s nursing homes deaths and cover-up scandal, even as new damning information developed. This was not the case for the Fox News Channel’s Special Report as they aired an exclusive interview on Thursday with a nursing home…

CBS journalist Ed O’Keefe on Wednesday offered one of the most tone deaf, awkward observations when it comes to sexual assault accusations. Regarding Joe Biden’s comments about the abuse allegations against Andrew Cuomo, O’Keefe stated that the President has a “good understanding” of such claims because... he authored the Violence Against Women Act in the Senate. Tara Reade? 

Though journalists are clearly covering the ongoing debacle at the southern border, they are doing their best to provide partisan, pathetic cover for the Biden administration. CBS This Morning co-host Tony Dokoupil on Thursday delicately contrasted the Trump administration’s border policies (“clear, if morally debatable”) and the Biden administration’s efforts (“a little bit more nuanced”). …

Appearing on CBS’s Late Late Show With James Corden on Wednesday, actress Allison Janney, who played fictional White House Press Secretary CJ Gregg for seven seasons on NBC’s The West Wing, swooned over real-life Biden administration Press Secretary Jen Psaki. The celebrity hailed the Democratic spokeswoman as a “real hero” for being “friendly to the press.”

On Wednesday’s CBS This Morning, immediately following a sobering report about the massive illegal immigration border crisis, correspondent Ed O’Keefe fretted that the badly mishandled situation was “distracting” from President Biden’s attempted victory lap over the newly-passed COVID relief boondoggle. 

A political earthquake is shaking California as a massive recall effort against liberal Governor Gavin Newsom has surged past the needed 1.5 million signatures to qualify for a fall ballot. The networks have mostly stayed silent on this (or relegated it to Sunday talk shows). But on Wednesday, as the deadline for signatures arrived with over two million turned in, CBS offered a full report. …

Over the weekend, ABC's World News Tonight ran a full report showing video of a Nashville police officer who was shot and wounded as he tried to arrest a woman on drug charges. It's the kind of event that should get more attention to balance out the tremendous amount of time the media devote to criminal suspects being shot by police under more questionable circumstances.

Republicans are often cast as the villains on TV, but one show finally made a GOP “hero”: a “pro-immigration, pro-choice” one who refused to vote against the impeachment of President Trump.

As more and more women came forward with disgusting allegations of sexual harassment against Democratic New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, the more it seemed as though the broadcast networks were getting tired of covering it. Thus was the case during Tuesday’s evening newscasts when ABC, CBS, and NBC ignored a claim from former aide and Cuomo accuser, Karen Hinton about how the Governor allegedly…

On Tuesday, Axios broke a story detailing how Customs and Border Protection had arrested four people on the FBI’s terror watch list trying to sneak through the U.S./Mexico border. But the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) were still playing defense for President Biden that night as ABC’s World News propping up flimsy administration claim “the border is secure,” and NBC…
