Culture
November 5th, 2019 12:24 AM
Here at Newsbusters we have been covering the abortion saga on the CBS drama Bull, produced by Dr. Phil McGraw. In a television era when Planned Parenthood practically writes scripts and Hollywood actively tries to “destigmatize abortion,” Bull has been one of the few shows to at least acknowledge the moral wrong of abortion. Unfortunately, it has also made some concessions to abortion attitudes…

Nets, Which Touted Jeering Nats Fans, Ignore Players Praising Trump
November 4th, 2019 11:33 PM
A week ago, CBS and NBC were enthralled by footage of Washington Nationals fans booing President Trump and chanting “lock him up” at game five of the World Series. But when Nationals players visited the White House on Monday, they praised the President for making the country great with one sporting his “Make America Great Again” hat. Those same networks ignored the event while hyping the release…

Nets Praise Oklahoma Criminal Justice Reform, Ignore Large Role of GOP
November 4th, 2019 9:10 PM
Oklahoma held the title for the highest lockup rate in the country (1 in every 100 residents), but that began to change on Monday after some 500 non-violent offenders had their sentences commuted by sweeping criminal justice reform. ABC, CBS, and NBC celebrated the move during their evening newscasts but ignored the role of the heavily Republican-control legislature and the Republican governor…
Joe Ricketts on CBS: Liberals Wrong to Blame Recessions on Free Market
Business
November 4th, 2019 4:51 PM
The liberal media routinely warn that America is headed for a recession, but what is to blame? Liberal sources like The New York Times offering “How the Recession of 2020 Could Happen,” CNBC’s “Is there a recession coming? Keep an eye on these key indicators,” and Vox’s “Why everybody’s worried about a recession again” and “Recessions, and the fear that another one is just around the corner,…

On Impeachment, CBS Chides Voters Seeking ‘Preferred Media’
November 4th, 2019 1:00 PM
The journalists at CBS This Morning on Monday fretted that, unlike past impeachments, voters aren’t paying attention to the warnings of the mainstream media. Instead, John Dickerson worried they are “going to their preferred media outlets seeking affirmation rather than information.” This Morning co-host Anthony Mason lamented, “You go back to Nixon. And I think it was all but four Republicans…

Culture
November 4th, 2019 12:59 AM
Even in its final season, CBS’s Madam Secretary is still managing to squeeze in more liberal pandering. As if the Hillary Clinton-esque female president wasn’t enough, now we get a scene fawning over the press. It’s enough to make one thankful the ending’s only five episodes away.
SPIKED: ABC, CBS, NBC Skip Another New High in Jobs Numbers
November 3rd, 2019 8:04 AM
On Friday, there was another positive report on unemployment in America. While the unemployment rate rose a tick to 3.6 percent, the unemployment rate for African Americans nudged down to a record low 5.4 percent. Also, the total employment level jumped to 158.5 million, also a new high. So the network "newscasts" ...skipped it entirely. ABC, CBS, and NBC offered nothing. The networks keep…

Pelosi Gets Hero’s Welcome on Late Show, Hails Colbert's ‘Patriotism'
November 1st, 2019 4:18 PM
Rather than subject herself to an actual news interview, on Thursday, shortly after the vote in Congress to formally endorse an impeachment inquiry against President Trump, Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi went directly to liberal Late Show host Stephen Colbert to celebrate the radically partisan move. She was predictably treated to a hero’s welcome and even thanked Colbert for his supposed…

CBS Anchor O’Donnell Rolls Over for Schiff to Spew Talking Points
October 31st, 2019 10:56 PM
There’s a reason CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell was absolutely failing to boost ratings for CBS’s flagship evening newscast. Following the partisan passage of the House’s impeachment procedures on Thursday, O’Donnell sat down with, or rather rolled over for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA). She lobbed marshmallow-like questions at him so he could effectively…

Awkward: NBC's Today Hides Morning Show Drama on Sex Harasser
October 31st, 2019 4:02 PM
Well, that’s awkward. Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon are making the media rounds to promote a fictional new series on a network morning show. ABC’s Good Morning America had the stars of The Morning Show. CBS This Morning’s Gayle King talked to the actresses, even noting the “elephant in the room” in relation to disgraced ex-host Charlie Rose. But NBC’s Today? The home of alleged sexual…

Nets Skip Joe Biden Being Denied Communion for Abortion Views
October 30th, 2019 11:11 PM
While trying to receive holy communion at South Carolina’s St. Anthony Catholic Church, former Vice President and 2020 hopeful Joe Biden was denied by the church’s reverend, citing Biden’s support for abortion. The liberal media were once floored by Biden’s support for the Hyde Amendment but welcomed his buckle to political pressure and their radical demands. So, it’s no wonder ABC, CBS, and NBC…

Nets Disregard Obama’s Call to End Cancel Culture, Acting ‘Woke’
October 30th, 2019 9:34 PM
At an Obama Foundation event on Tuesday, former President Barack Obama made headlines by denouncing the purity test his party had set up for their 2020 presidential candidates and called on the left to end their so-called cancel culture, which aims to ruin people’s lives with false activism. But none of the liberal broadcast networks heeded his call and omitted it from their morning and evening…

Late-Night Hosts Savage Trump Post-Baghdadi, Colbert Wins for Worst
October 30th, 2019 2:36 PM
On Monday, the first weeknight after U.S. special forces terminated ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the network late-night shows didn't tone down their anti-Trump aggression one iota. On CBS, the Late Show with Stephen Colbert began with footage of D.C. baseball fans booing President Trump at the World Series, and Team Colbert imagined the crowd began singing a witless ditty changing the lyrics…
