Meet the Press

I’m old enough to remember when the late, great Rush Limbaugh referred to NBC’s Sunday political affairs show as Meet the Depressed. A return to that moniker might be in order after today’s opening segment on the latest NBC News poll, showing former President Donald Trump opening a five-point lead over incumbent President Joe Biden and triggering a panic over Biden’s “presidency in…

On Sunday's Meet the Press, host Kristen Welker interviewed radical-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and at the end, gently questioned whether it's fair for her colleague Rashida Tlaib and other leftist friends of hers to accuse Biden of genocide. 

On both NBC and ABC’s Sunday political affairs shows, there was significant time devoted to the matter of President Biden’s age and whether he is mentally able to conduct the affairs of the presidency in a theoretical second term.

Across the dial, Sunday political affairs shows took it upon themselves to attempt to make GOP members of Congress squirm in response to statements made by former President Donald Trump. This collective drive-by attempt failed miserably, hitting nothing but air.

2024 is bound to be not only one of the most monumental years in American history, it ventures to be among the most chaotic. So, before we dive head first into 2024 at midnight, let’s look back one last time at 2023 to look at what stories you, the readers, visited the most on NewsBusters. As always, we can’t thank you enough for not only your readership, but also financial support. Amid a…

During a panel discussion regarding the impeachment inquiry against Hunter Biden, former White House Press Secretary and current MSNBC host Jen Psaki let loose on what she (and probably her former comrades at the White House) think of Hunter’s Capitol press conference prior to blowing off his scheduled closed-door testimony: to wit, very little.

NBC News has decided to join the NCAA, academia, and corporate retailers among the many institutions now complicit in the intentional erasure of women. Among the panel of Democratic women in Macomb County, Michigan featured on Meet The Press convened to discuss their reluctant support of Joe Biden, a trans woman. 

On NBC's Meet the Press, New York Times reporter Jonathan Martin said "find me the Biden White House adviser who's going to go to the boss and say, "We need a new strategy about your son." NBC White House reporter Kelly O'Donnell said "There's isn't one." Martin added, "They’re not going to have that conversation."

On Sunday, NBC Meet the Press host Kristen Welker displayed an interview taped on Saturday with Gov. Ron DeSantis where she repeatedly demanded the candidate denounce Donald Trump for his use of the term "vermin" to describe communists, fascists, and "radical left thugs" in America. She asked six times to try and force an answer. DeSantis said he wasn't playing the media game on this…

There is no more oddly fascinating Sunday morning ritual than watching members of the Acela Media go on TV to weigh in on the fortunes of their fellow Americans that they know little to nothing about. And, as is often the case during tough times, the truest, purest victims of whatever woe has befallen their fellow Americans are none other than the Democrats in power. 

An interesting exchange at the end of Kristen Welker’s interview with House Intel Chair Mile Turner shows how critical it is to the January 6th narrative that the Capitol security video not be released. But it was, and Welker quickly tried to pivot when Turner responded to accusations of the GOP cherry picking video to release.

The one thing that forces negative coverage of President Biden is negative polling. On Sunday's Meet the Press, NBC's Steve Kornacki explained the latest NBC News findings, which show an erosion of Biden's standing, even among young Democrats. The war in Gaza is taking a toll, and Donald Trump now leads Biden.

“Revenge presidency” a term you’ll hear a lot from the Acela Media after former President Donald Trump’s interview with Televisa anchor Enrique Acevedo. NBC’s Kristin Welker tried it on RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel, and quickly regretted it.

After Hamas unleashed horrific atrocities in Israel from the Gaza strip, network Sunday show hosts asked "what say you" questions to Secretary of State Blinken while Republicans were disdained for their dissents at this terrible time.
