When a reporter lobbed a softball at President Joe Biden, the president took the opportunity to demand further adulation from the media. 

Today we present the WORST OF 2023: The Craziest Analysis Award. 

Two days before Christmas, NBC’s Today decided that it was the perfect time to host Joe Biden’s press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, for some holiday softballs so she could do a little damage control on behalf of her boss.

It was 32 years ago — on Christmas Day, December 25, 1991 — that the world rejoiced at the final dissolution of the Soviet Union. But some in the media refused to blame the communist system for its failures, even as they treated Gorbachev, the last communist, better than his Western counterparts and his anti-communist successors.

As the in-house ‘misinformation’ expert at NBC, Ben Collins peddles enough falsehoods to kill a fully grown African bull elephant. On Thursday when Ben took to X (formerly Twitter) to whine that some media outlets were actually covering the plagiarism scandal plaguing Harvard president Claudine Gay, commentators from across the political spectrum united to rake him over the coals.

From watching Lester Holt’s framing of NBC’s report on the mass shooting at a Prague college campus, you’d be forgiven for thinking the shooting happened in the United States, given his unwarranted insertion of domestic narrative points into the story. 

You just know that things are bad when the network evening newscasts have to actually make the time to report on the ongoing explosion at the southern border. Tonight, all three networks reported on the record detentions this week. None, however, reported on the White House's tie-in to the awful prisoner swap with the Maduro dictatorship in Venezuela.

On Wednesday night and overnight into Thursday, the three liberal network comedians working this week — CBS’s Late Show host Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon of NBC’s Tonight Show, and Seth Meyers of NBC’s Late Night — were bursting at the seams in excitement (as were their audiences) at Tuesday’s decision by the Colorado Supreme Court to throw Donald Trump off the 2024…

Broadcast networks are still angry about a bill signed into law Tuesday by Texas Governor Greg Abbott, which empowers state and local law enforcement to arrest and deport illegal aliens.

For this installment of late-night group therapy for rich, white liberals, NBC’s Late Night host Seth Meyers pointlessly bloviated about how much he hates Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) as a “Handmaid’s Tale werewolf”, just one of Donald Trump’s “weird” “cavalcade of goons”, and someone who, if they were murdered, their colleagues wouldn’t seek to find his killer.

The network evening newscasts were unsure whether to hail, cover neutrally, or condemn the latest U.S. prisoner swap with an authoritarian regime. In this case, the exchange with Venezuela’s Maduro dictatorial regime, which returned his notorious bagman, Alex Saab, in exchange for fugitive “Fat Leonard” and 10 additional hostages.

Having clearly not received the memo that the time just prior to and after Christmas is usually reserved for near-endless travel and weather segments, Wednesday’s CBS Mornings led off with over seven and a half minutes on the Colorado Supreme Court kicking former President Trump off its 2024 primary ballot and featured former Obama official-turned-supposedly-objective CBS News…

The evening network newscasts delivered their breaking news reports on the Colorado Supreme Court decision disqualifying former President Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot with little substance, but plenty of emotional impact. 

NBC News went in on PragerU, depicting the conservative educational nonprofit as scary disinformers threatening to upend our nation’s noble and besieged public education system. But in order to do so, NBC News engaged in active disinformation by depicting a family of entrenched public school advocates as a regular family.
