NBC Nightly News

Earlier this month, three Metro D.C. police officers were shot in the line of duty, as they were serving a warrant on charges of animal cruelty. All three networks reported on the shooting at the time. However, none of them reported on the arrest of the shooter, perhaps due to a very inconvenient and uncomfortable reason: the shooter is in the country illegally.

Last week, we reported on the evening news’ spotty reporting of the campaign to persuade Michigan Democrats to vote for “Uncommitted” in tomorrow’s primary, in protest of President Joe Biden’s response to Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza. A week later, and on the eve of the primary, ABC’s World News Tonight remains steadfast in their refusal to cover the protest vote.

The nation reels over images of Venezuelan migrants beating up on New York cops in Times Square, and is disgusted to discover that the dangerous transnational criminal gang known as Tren de Aragua has established beachheads in New York, Miami and Chicago. Reasonable people might believe that it is time, perhaps, to accelerate deportation of these criminal elements back to Venezuela. But did…

The networks are doing their level best to continue to fuel the ongoing panic over in-vitro fertilization treatments (IVF) in the wake of Alabama’s Supreme Court opinion that granted embryos rights equal to those of a child in utero. But from watching the coverage, it is pretty obvious that what is happening is about something beyond just IVF.

Because the corporate media is so in the tank for abortion, anything not resembling a Planned Parenthood infomercial tends to stick out like a sore thumb. Such is the case with NBC News’ profile of Nevada Senate candidate Sam Brown and his wife Amy.

A study of the ABC, CBS and NBC evening news since the New Hampshire primary finds Donald Trump getting five times the coverage of challenger Nikki Haley, even as the networks pound the former President with 89% negative coverage.

Every once in a while, you get a news report that serves no other purpose than being an infomercial for Big Pharma. So it is tonight, with NBC’s report pushing trendy weight loss injectable medication as being safe for children.

You would think, with a little over a week to go before Michigan’s presidential primary election, that a Democrat member of Congress mounting an insurgent rejection campaign against President Joe Biden might garner coverage across the network evening newscasts. Alas, you would’ve thought wrong. Only one network found room for the push for a vote of “uncommitted” on the Democratic Party’s…

After news broke that four financial leviathans managing trillions of dollars had abandoned a massive environmental, social and governance (ESG) pressure group, ABC News, NBC News, and CBS News ignored the story in their evening coverage.

A major media narrative to emerge from President Joe Biden’s fiery press conference decrying the special counsel’s report on the classified documents investigation was “gratuitous”, in reference to Robert Hur’s line citing the president’s inability to recall the date of his son Beau’s death. But, as NBC News reports, it turns out that the narrative is fake because Hur wasn’t the one to raise…

“Disappointing”. “Frustrating”. “A rough day for the markets”. After this morning’s cheerful attempts to spin the higher-than-expected Consumer Price Index for January, the networks have very clearly course-corrected. The evening newscasts were far more reflective of the harsh reality of what the report indicated. 

The networks each sang from the same hymnal as they covered the awful shooting at Houston’s Lakewood Church: actively excluding the trans identity of the shooter, which caused a great deal of confusion as details of the story were trickling in.

A funny thing happened on the way to wall-to-wall coverage of the Supreme Court hearing on Colorado’s decision to disqualify former President Donald Trump on 14th Amendment grounds: Special Counsel Robert Hur published his office’s report on the investigation of President Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents, and bedlam ensued.

The network evening newscasts had their collective work cut out for them as they did their very best firefighting, albeit with varying degrees of intensity, in an attempt to save the Senate border deal currently engulfed in flames as details of the legislation went public Sunday night.
