In a nearly five-minute liberal, sexist commentary masquerading as a comedy routine, NBC’s Late Night host Seth Meyers lambasted Carly Fiorina and pro-life conservatives early Wednesday morning and reveled in the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) indictment by declaring that Congress should “defund planned bulls***” instead of the abortion provider.

ABC, NBC Ignore ‘Dangerous Precedent’ to Journalism by CMP Indictment
Undercover journalists from both sides of the political spectrum could be severely limited by a Texas grand jury indictment against pro-life activists. The charges are so sweeping that they could affect the entire journalism industry, everything from the network news to environmental activists.

Biased NBC Lectures Fox News on Journalism Over Trump Debate Boycott

ABC Avoids Iowan Who Bluntly Challenged ‘Dishonest’ Clinton
ABC on Tuesday deliberately avoided a young questioner who challenged Hillary Clinton as “dishonest.” Instead, Good Morning America reporter Cecilia Vega only played the Democrat’s response in which she touted her desire to help people.

CBS Maintains Blackout on Bloomberg's Gun Control Stance; ABC Covers
Monday's CBS Evening News followed the example of CBS This Morning earlier in the day in failing to mention Michael Bloomberg's outspoken gun control stance in their coverage of the former New York City mayor's potential presidential run.

5 Ways the Liberal Media Devoted a Decade to Gore’s Climate Apocalypse
Business
2016 was supposedly the “point of no return” for taking action on global warming, according to former Vice President Al Gore. His tipping point received widespread scorn on the right, resulting in an “Armageddon” clock posted on Rush Limbaugh’s site -- that turns zero Jan. 27.
But don’t expect the liberal news media to remind anyone of Gore’s hyperbolic claim 10 years later.
After all, the…

Chuck Todd's Softball to Hillary on E-Mails: 'Are You Concerned?'
NBC Meet the Press host Chuck Todd conducted a pretty soft interview with Hillary Clinton on Sunday, especially the way he let Mrs. Clinton get away with suggesting there is no e-mail scandal and “I cannot control what the Republicans leak,” as if the Inspector General of the State Department is some kind of Republican plant.
Todd left it for the end of the interview, and only asked her if she…
